Bond, Mississippi
Hi MS2MT, you have added some useful information to the Bond, Mississippi page, but I would caution that such information must be verifiable from a reliable source, or it is likely to be deleted. Please read WP:VERIFY. I added a reliable source for your Clayton Rand edit, but I found nothing about the history of Bond United Methodist Church on the internet. Note that personal observations are not considered reliable—WP:NOR. Regards Woodlot (talk) 21:28, 24 July 2015 (UTC)

November 2019
Hello, I'm Woodlot. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Boyce Holleman, 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, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please read WP:VERIFY. Additionally, do not add promotional references to outside organizations, per WP:SPAM. Thanks Woodlot (talk) 16:46, 22 November 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your response. Several points to make:

Woodlot (talk) 22:16, 22 November 2019 (UTC)
 * First, it is not permissible to "cut & paste" material from other websites into Wikipedia, even if only to respond on a Talk page. That is considered a copyright violation; consequently, I have deleted the obituary content from my Talk page. The url that you provided would suffice.
 * Second, I hope you read the WP:VERIFY link that I provided. New information that is added to Wikipedia articles must be referenced with a "reliable source". The edits you made to Boyce Holleman were in good faith, but you must learn how to correctly reference your edits. Simply follow examples that previous editors have used when editing. I have not cleaned up the edits that you made on Nov. 19, so if you wish to resubmit, please follow these recommendations, or you edits will again be reverted.
 * Third, also pay attention to the WP:SPAM link. Adding the law firm website would be considered promotional and was not needed.
 * Fourth, when responding on a Talk page, always add your comments to the bottom of the page by clicking on "New Section", and sign your comments by adding 4 tildes, see WP:SIGNATURE.
