On Abortion in Michigan
Hello. You've recently made your first edit to Wikipedia, specifically to the Abortion in Michigan article. I undid the edits for two reasons. Firstly, the sources you cited did not back up the claims you made. You said that the 1931 law was the only law in Michigan regulation gestational limits for abortion. This may or may not be true, but neither source you cited mentioned this. It is important that if you make a claim on Wikipedia, you not only cite a source, but that the source correlates to the claim you make.

Secondly, I reverted your edits because they used biased sources. The NBC source seemed fine enough, but you also cited Right to Life. Right to Life is a special interest, lobbying organization. This makes them a fairly biased source on the topic of abortion. It would make sense to cite them when it came to claims about their stated mission statement in sections where that would relevant, but it is less advisable when it comes to more substantial claims. If you want to know more about proper Wikipedia citations, read up about it on No original research. RoundSquare (talk) 16:46, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
