Welcome!
Hello, John Cranfield, 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 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.

Enigma Reversions
Hi there, John, and welcome to Wikipedia! I was a monitor engineer who was forced out of the industry due to underpayment, so I very much sympathise with the engineers on Enigma if the statements you added were truthful. However you didn't provide any sources so we couldn't verify the information - Unfortunately this meant one of my fellow editors had to revert your addition. If you can provide reliable, independent sources for the information, then you're entitled to add it back to the article (although I'd prefer if you wrote in a more encyclopaedic tone than you did previously). Otherwise, I'd like to bring your attention to a one of our guidelines: Wikipedia is not a place to "Right great wrongs". Until we can verify a claim, we won't make it ourselves. Again, welcome to Wikipedia, and I truly hope you like it here and decide to stay! -- Cheers, Alfie. (Say Hi!) 00:35, 30 January 2018 (UTC)
