Hello, I'm Netherzone. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Pagosa Springs, Colorado, 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. ''While it is great that you want to contribute to Wikipedia, please understand that it is an encyclopedia and facts/claims/data must be properly referenced. You have twice, in good faith, added unsourced of poorly sourced weather statistics to this article. Most recently you used data from Grand Junction, Colorado to the Pagosa Springs article. The two cities are approximately 250 miles apart, and have different weather patterns and topographies. It is better to leave a stable version (even if it in not currently sourced) than adding incorrect information.'' Netherzone (talk) 21:20, 23 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, I never used the climate for Grand Junction. I grabbed Pagosa Spring's data from the NOAA website where the weather station was listed as a part of the Grand Junction region. Many other stations are listed in such region as well, but I used Pagosa Spring's 2607:F010:2A7:1017:1913:425A:1383:BDCC (talk) 22:05, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply. Hmm, when I clicked on your citation it took me to Grand Junction data. Could you try to find a direct link to Pagosa Springs? Netherzone (talk) 23:09, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello again, I checked a second time in good faith, and could not verify the PS data using the link you added in the citation. A key policy of the encyclopedia is verifiability, see: WP:V. NOAA is of course a reliable source, however a citation is needed where our readership (and editors) can actually verify the data. Netherzone (talk) 23:14, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
