Wikipedia edits need to be based on what the sources say
Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for editing!

Regarding this edit to Hispanics and Latinos in Houston, it may be true that people from the Dominican Republic came to Houston, but this edit was reverted because it was unsourced (not based on what the written sources say). To do that, you would need to:
 * Option 1: Read the cited reference, which is,
 * Rodriguez, Lori. "Targeting Spanish-speaking riders, Taxis Fiesta's business blossoms as Hispanic communities spread across the city / Latino growth drives cab boom," Houston Chronicle, November 28, 2005. B1 MetFront. Retrieved on December 31, 2011. - If you are from Houston, go to the Houston Public Library site, go to the newspapers section, and enter your library card number and PIN. When you read the article, check if it mentions people from the Dominican Republic. If not, you can't use that source to say Dominicans came to Houston.
 * Option 2: Find a new source that says Dominicans came to Houston and cite it. See WP:RS for information on what sources are acceptable.
