Hi John,

Can you be a little more specific with what you're flagging as bad content? I believe you took down my hyperlink to a roller derby team from Grand Rapids and my mention of it being one of the first member teams of the league. That is, in fact, correct as you will see from the page I hyperlinked to, which includes a cited graphic with names and places of the first teams. (Here's the graphic's file name for verification: File:WFTDA MAP.jpg). Is there something else I should have added / should add in the future to prevent it from being taken down again? I'm new to Wikipedia and am still learning it's nuances. I appreciate your help. Cklane90 (talk) 21:14, 10 September 2019 (UTC)Cklane90
 * Provide secondary sources, which besides being better for our stated purposes as this is a tertiary source, also shows that someone actually cares about the information you are adding. John from Idegon (talk) 22:52, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
