Hello, I'm Idontknowwhattouseasmyusername300. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Michael Hart, 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. Idontknowwhattouseasmyusername300 (talk) 13:58, 22 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your attention. I don't think you're correctly applying the requirement for reliable sources: The page I changed -- the list of people with the name Michael Hart -- doesn't have any footnotes or citations...all of the descriptions for the different Michael Harts are taken (without citation) from the respective pages of the people listed. My source for the change is the page for the Michael Hart whose description on the disambiguation page I changed (Michael H. Hart). In the current version of the disambiguation page he is described as "American physicist and futurist author." On the page linked to that description he is described in the first line as "American astrophysicist, author, amateur historian, researcher, and white separatist/white nationalist."  In my view his status as a white separatist is more notable than his status as a futurist author (which can be subsumed to his status as a physicicst). So that description should be listed on the disambiguation page.  So it's not a matter of whether it should be cited (there are no citations on disambiguation pages), its a matter of what is most notable about him and what distinguishes him from the other Michael Harts. 143.229.44.177 (talk) 13:31, 30 March 2023 (UTC)
