Welcome!
Hello, Chexbox, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Scratch (programming language) have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to the new contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Raspberry Pi Foundation - independent sources
Hello Chexbox, I have trimmed your addition to Raspberry Pi Foundation a bit, but kept a brief mention of both magazines. Most information in Wikipedia articles should be based on independent reliable sources (for example books, journals, reputable news media, independent experts), not on the topic's own publications or website. Articles should provide neutral information based on reports from independent media about the topic, not on information from the topic about itself. Self-published sources should only be used sparingly for really uncontroversial basic details (see WP:SPS). I hope this clarifies the recent removals, but please feel free to ask if you have any further questions. I'd be glad to help. GermanJoe (talk) 19:21, 3 July 2018 (UTC)
