Welcome!
Hello, Jacobvaneyck, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Bible Belt have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

Bible Belt
Thanks for your 'welcome' to wiki albeit I have been here since 2009!

Everything I wrote in my edit is factually correct and backed up by various sources both on wiki and elsewhere eg. Religion in the Western Isles.

I do not claim 'original research' of what is written in multiple news sources and common knowledge in Scotland itself. Indeed it looked similar to assertions of other locations in the article.

A simple lack of references would presumably be met with a request for such additions, not dumping the edit in its entirety.

I made no reference to living persons as you suggested, not directly at least.

Your actions leave me puzzled.

 * Hi Jacob. might be able to answer that better but might I suggest you post the question on the article's talk page? That way you will get some editors involved that are interested in helping that page specifically.  Gtstricky Talk or C 14:49, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
