Mr. Cole: Nobody is questioning the truth of what you write. See WP:Truth. Rather, we need reliable sources from third parties, so that it will be WP:Verifiable. But verifiability not truth is the standard. Unverified information is likely to be struck. Meanwhile, good luck with your lighthouse and the other ventures in Eagle River. Nice town, lighthouse, etc. 7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 00:47, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BrownHairedGirl. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Eagle River Light, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Thank you. I am the reliable source. I own it along with many other historical buildings and land in Eagle River including Sand Hills Lighthouse. My family has lineage there since they arrived to the USA from Slovenia, Sweden and Germany in the mid 1800’s. Edward Bud Cole (talk) 05:10, 16 June 2021 (UTC)
