April 2017[edit]

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. This is just a note to let you know that I've moved the draft that you were working on to Draft:James Chisholm (Rugby Union), from its old location at User:Pelican 8/sandbox/James Chisholm (Rugby Union). This has been done because the Draft namespace is the preferred location for Articles for Creation submissions. Please feel free to continue to work on it there. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to ask me on my talk page. Thank you. KGirlTrucker81^{huh? what I've been doing} 17:07, 12 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Marcus Smith[edit]

Hi there @Pelican 8:. Firstly, there really is no need for sarcastic comments like you made in this edit. Secondly, as per Wikipedia guidelines, content should be verifiable, and the burden of proof is with editors making changes to demonstrate verifiability. On the official Harlequins website (which is the reliable source used in the Harlequins article), Marcus Smith isn't listed in the senior squad, but in the academy squad. If you disagree with this, then please add additional verifiable sources to back up your changes. TheMightyPeanut (talk) 09:16, 1 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Since no attempt has been made to add any form of verifiable sources to the changes you've made, I will once again revert these. Thanks, TheMightyPeanut (talk) 13:44, 6 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
