Please help me with... Subject : newspaper Article name : newspaper The Antwerp periodical Nieuwe Tydinghe in Brabant Dutch is generally regarded to have been the first regularly appearing newspaper. The photograph added of the location where it was published was my own work. What objection do you have against my entry ? You can look on the wikipedia page on Abraham Verhoeven for background information. Napoleon Distelmans (talk) 18:43, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

As it states in the notice on the top of this page, your edit was reverted because it did not contain a reference. While it does appear that your edit was factually accurate, based on Abraham Verhoeven, you should have included one of the references there for verification purposes. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
