Hello this is with regards to the message you have just sent to me about the changes I have made to the Lisa Wilcox (equestrian) wikipedia page. It's great to see that people are are very concerned with the credibility of the changes being made to articles on wikipedia, however I have taken information out of a book that had obtained information from the women in question herself. Thus seeing this as factual (or at least more truthful) I thought I should help expand the article, granted I'm pretty awful with referencing and this is the only online availability of the book I'm using. How can I make these changes more acceptable seeming as referencing is perhaps the best way of making assertions in articles more credible. (LewisHarding (talk) 14:50, 26 October 2011 (UTC))
