Train Driver 2018 moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Train Driver 2018, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

[edit]

Information icon Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Danners430 (talk) 20:24, 29 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

January 2023

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Mattdaviesfsic. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, British Rail Class 315, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattdaviesfsic (talk) 17:32, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Electrostar378,
Thank you for taking the effort to find sources to verify the claims that the Class 315 was withdrawn in December 2022. However, both of the sources which you added are from before December 2022, and only predict their removal from service - neither state that it has been done. Therefore they cannot be used to claim that the units were indeed withdrawn at this time - only that they were due to be withdrawn. Danners430 (talk) 22:23, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Danners430, thank you very much for the advice. As December was only a few days ago, there are not many articles that state that the units have been withdrawn. I will add the correct citations when I found an article that states that they have been withdrawn. Thank you for your time. Electrostar378 (talk) 22:26, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

April 2023

[edit]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at British Rail Class 321, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Danners430 (talk) 11:01, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

June 2023

[edit]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at British Rail Class 37, you may be blocked from editing. Danners430 (talk) 16:23, 16 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First of all, you do not need citations for the particular edit I made on that wikipedia article. So how would you know if it was poorly sourced. I'm tired of you reverting edits that I made which are clearly useful so please go and bother someone else. Electrostar378 (talk) 21:06, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If I’ve made a mistake I’m always happy to correct it - why wouldn’t that edit require a citation? Danners430 (talk) 08:10, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If you look at that wikipedia article the section that I made does not require citations because everyone that edited it before did not add citations. Electrostar378 (talk) 13:44, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just because nobody else added citations doesn't mean that it's ok to add uncited content - instead, the section should be tagged as unsourced, and future changes should add the necessary citations. Danners430 (talk) 14:12, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ok sorry Electrostar378 (talk) 11:56, 21 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
