 * I have not edited before. Did I miss a step out in referencing
 * ? Bdfgr (talk) 21:05, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
 * ....ie by not referencing...? Bdfgr (talk) 21:09, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Please bear in mind that this is my first edit, and I'm not 'au fait' with how Wiki editing works. I also noted on your profile "...If you feel that I have reverted an edit or issued a warning in error, please Click Here and let me know. I am human, and I do make mistakes. Please don't interpret an error on my part as a personal attack on you. It's not, I promise. I ask you to simply bring it to my attention; I am always open to civil discussion". That's good to hear.                                                                           Bearing all this in mind, with respect, I don't know who you are or what your status is. Can you explain what was incorrect about my edit and why it fell below Wiki standards.
 * These are genuine questions. I look forward to your reply..... Bdfgr (talk) 14:25, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
 * A week has passed and I still haven't received any response from you. Brusquely, you undid an edit that I made without any explanation of who you are or what authority you hold. My edit was made in good faith and I feel it should be reinstated. Please alert me if there is a procedure that I need to adhere to. Bdfgr (talk) 15:37, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Pete Ham. Your edits could be interpreted as 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 your sandbox. Thank you.  General Ization Talk  01:11, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Pete Ham, you may be blocked from editing.  General Ization Talk  01:14, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Click in the links in the messages above to learn more about sources and how to cite them here.  General Ization Talk  01:15, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, when another editor has a message on their profile that says "Click Here and let me know", that means to click there and let them know, not to post a message on your Talk page and expect them to return to see it (which they were unlikely to do).

 * Thank you for message, but I am still confused as to what was wrong with my entry, which I made in good faith. The correction I made is accurate and I did cite/reference the source of the information; 'Without You'(by Dan Matovina). This is a Badfinger biography, the first entry already listed under references at the bottom of the page. Please can you advise...I am confused. Thank you. Bdfgr (talk) 02:35, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You did not "cite" a source for the information, you simply mentioned it in your edit summary. Your edit summary is not visible to readers of the article. Any information you add or change must be verifiable by any reader of the encyclopedia; that is accomplished using citations. As I suggested above, click on the blue links in the notice I provided earlier for instructions concerning how to cite sources. In any case, there was no source in the article for the existing claim concerning the years of their relationship, so I removed that claim altogether; it is not needed.
