User talk:Jcox998

February 2022
Hello, I'm Rusalkii. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person   on John H. Cox, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Rusalkii (talk) 17:33, 5 February 2022 (UTC)


 * If you are the subject of the article, you should additionally read the conflict of interest policy. The short version is that Wikipedia heavily discourages editing pages about yourself, and if you want to make a change you should leave a message on the talk page so that an uninvolved editor can evaluate it.
