Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). Thanks! P.S. If you need any help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at New contributors' help page, or just ask me. You appear to be inserting quotes from My House of Memories: An Autobiography. If so it's confusing to have the first word missing. In some cases you have use the Sfn shortened footnote template. By itself this doesn't provide enough information for the reader to locate the source. A reference to the source/book giving the author, publisher, year published is needed in addition. See Help:Shortened footnotes for some examples of how this works. Although you could fix what you've edited by adding the missing references it would be simpler to use cite book which can be inserted using the a drop down from the "Templates" menu. Using the menu you get a dialog box where you can add the ISBN, then click the magnifying glass icon to auto fill much of the information. I hope this make editing easier for you.

Incorrect use of shortened footnotes
Hello again CowboyCopious, I left you a message on February 18 about your use of shortened footnotes. The way you are using them leaves the reader unable to verify the content you are adding. Please read what I wrote last month and fix your many prior and later contributions. I also noticed that you are adding commentary to articles with no references to sources. While you may be very knowledgeable content in Wikipedia articles must be based on published sources, not your personal observations. Gab4gab (talk) 16:23, 12 March 2018 (UTC)
