User talk:LegacyB

February 2021
Hello, I'm Ifnord. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Elizabeth Peratrovich, 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 the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Ifnord (talk) 20:44, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

I am trying to correct incorrect information regarding my grandparents so that people stop publishing incorrect information. How do I cite family knowledge? LegacyB (talk) 20:51, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello, LegacyB. Family knowledge is not a valid reference. You will need to find a reliable source, please see WP:PROVEIT for more information on how to do this. Ifnord (talk) 21:05, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Elizabeth Peratrovich, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ifnord (talk) 21:01, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Absolutely stunning that family knowledge is not considered a reliable source. LegacyB (talk) 21:25, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, LegacyB. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. ''Please be aware that changes require a reference, see WP:PROVEIT. Saying you are related to the person is not a valid reference.'' Ifnord (talk) 21:03, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
