Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to East London (bus company)‎. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. CourtneyBonnick (talk) 23:45, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Smithbuses, your edits to the article don't make sense to me. One of the sentences you added has no source, which, of course, is contrary to Wikipedia policy, and the other cites a source but doesn't seem to support what you're saying. The best place to discuss these kinds of issues is on the article Talk page. Why don't you go there, open up a topic, and explain what you're trying to do. In the meantime, please don't add the material back into the article. Thanks.

One more thing. The source you're citing does not appear to be a reliable source - I can't tell who created it, frankly. Therefore, you'd have to find a reliable source to add any material to the article.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:04, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive editing

Smithbuses, multiple editors have asked you to stop adding unsourced information to East London (bus company).

Hello, I'm Tommietomato. I noticed that you made a change to an article, East London (bus company)‎, but you didn't provide a reliable source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation 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, Tom the Tomato (talk) 20:43, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring and logging out to continue an edit war, as you did at East London (bus company). Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. ​—DoRD (talk)​ 13:40, 22 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
