your message
Hi there, nice to meet you.

This was my first wikipedia post, please excuse me for not doing it properly. (I noticed some of the other entries in the page I was editing appear to have no source, eg the Sydney Morning Herald, Clayton Utz etc, so I concluded that providing a source must be optional. I now see from your message it is not optional.)

Could you please let me know if it would be appropriate for me to repost my edit with the following source noted:

1 URL of the specific web page where the referenced content can be found - https://www.hawkesbury.org/name/paine-ross-co.html

2 name of the author(s) - CATHY MCHARDY & NICHOLAS MCHARDY

3 title of the article - Paine, Ross & Co

4 title or domain name of the website - Hawkesbury People and Places

5 publisher, if known - CATHY MCHARDY & NICHOLAS MCHARDY

6 date of publication - unknown

7 page number(s) (if applicable) - 1

8 the date you retrieved (or accessed) the web page (required if the publication date is unknown) - 17 February 2020
