Sourcing
Even an 'expert' has to provide sources I am afraid. On Wikipedia (WP) Verifiability not truth is necessary. In other words it may be true, but if placed on a WP page it can be removed by any editor if it is un-sourced. The rules for Biographies of living persons (BLP) are tighter.

This edit |here to Sunnynook, New Zealand mentions a person by name and says her husband murdered her. This type of controversial information must be supported by a reliable source. Therefore I have edited the page to remove that text. To re-add it you must have a reliable source. --220  of  Borg 11:17, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Edit summaries
Hi there. When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field. If you are adding a section, please do not just keep the previous section's header in the Edit summary field – please fill in your new section's name instead. Thank you. --220  of  Borg 11:20, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Nook Boyz


A tag has been placed on Nook Boyz requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. &#9790;Loriendrew&#9789;  &#9743;(talk)  12:30, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Vandalism
Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Forrest Hill, New Zealand. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use the sandbox. Thank you.- gadfium 23:26, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
