Hello, I'm Kerry Raymond. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Newstead House, Brisbane, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''Can you provide a citation for the addition you made? If you can't work out how to add the citation, just add the citation below this message and I will add it for you.'' Kerry (talk) 12:59, 16 September 2021 (UTC)


 * (Responding to a message on my User Talk page) Yes, I agree with you that the Talk system is not a great way to communicate, but equally private email is not desirable as it would mean other people cannot see and cannot contribute to any discussion and decision-making (but, yes, there ought to be a better way to achieve this!). However, back to Newstead House ... It is your obligation to provide citations, not for me or others to do the research to establish if what you are saying is true. You say that this confirms that the family lived there. I agree that with this as a citation you can demonstrate that the Flegeltaub family lived at Newstead house, but it says nothing about given names, being prominent, being Jewish, or living at Palma Rosa. Fortunately for you, the Queenslnd Heritage Register entry for Palma Rosa does mention these things, so together they support what you are saying. I have reinstated your changes with a few variations and added both of these web pages as citations. If you are planning to do more edits (and I hope you will) and would like to learn how to contribute more effectively, I am a Wikipedia trainer so if you would like some training (a free service), feel free to email me at kerry.raymond@wikimedia.org.au Kerry (talk) 22:22, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
