Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made a change to an article, 1974 USC Trojans baseball team, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source 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. Materialscientist (talk) 04:03, 10 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Materialscientist!
 * My name is Joe Eskew and I was a member of the 1973 & 1974 USC (University of Southern California) Baseball team. Thanks for your note last night, after I was on the "1974 USC Baseball Team" Wiki site. Are you the "Sys Admin" for this site?  I've noticed, in the past, that when I do "edits" on this site, sometime they are "deleted".  If you communicate with the active members of the Baseball leadership program, Sergio Brown, Justin Dedeaux, Terry Dedeaux, and Suzanne Eber (all of whom I will be with at the Alumni Game today), they can "verify" me as a member of the team.
 * Feel free to call me (415.577.1144) to discuss in further. Were you a member of Trojan baseball?  As a season ticket holder for 20+ years, I attend many games as well as being a part of the development team that raised funds for the new/remodeled stadium.
 * I will also be at the game today.
 * Fight on!
 * Joe Eskew

 * Hello. As stated in our No Original Research policy, personal experiences of editors, no matter how closely connected they are with the subject, cannot be used as sources. Furthermore, users are actually generally supposed to forgo editing articles about subjects with which they have a close offline connection with. An article about the activities of a sports team you played on would be a good example of this. If you'd like to see updates made to the article, the best way to do that would be to go to the article's talk page and request them there; you will, however, need to bring a reliable source, and be transparent about your connection to the subject matter. Thank you! AntiDionysius (talk) 16:26, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
