Welcome!

I am his wife so I can give the marriage certificate — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melwright (talk • contribs) 12:15, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Per wp:verifiability, please wp:cite a wp:reliable source. See help:referencing for beginners. Please be aware that anyone could create a Wikipedia account with the username of "Melwright" You could establish through wp:ORTS that you are Walter Wright's wife, but then you would have a wp:conflict of interest and should not be editing your husband's Wikipedia page. So, please cite a source stating Walter Wright's wife? Thank you Adakiko (talk) 12:23, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Mako001. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Walter Wright (boxer), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Mako001 (C)  (T)  12:38, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

• BTW: Using oneself as a source is wp:Original research. Isn't there a newspaper mention of your marriage? That would be considered a wp:reliable source (RS). Blogs, personal websites, etc., are wp:self-published are not considered RS. Adakiko (talk) 12:44, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
