Hello Moderator,

I have made one change on this page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soldering) where I found one dead link in the 14th point of the References section. I have updated that with a relevant blog related to hand soldering from trusted sources but today I have found that it wasn't updated on the website yet. Can you please tell me what is the reason behind this? However, I have updated this again today. Waiting for your reply!

Regards, Betty Hunt


 * Hi, I'm Constant 314. The edit you made on soldering was reverted (twice).  That is because blogs are not considered to be reliable sources. Constant314 (talk) 13:53, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi, I investigated further. I see that you just tried to fix the broken link, which highlighted the fact that it was a blog.   That triggered two other editors to revert, which didn't actually change anything.  Sorry that your first experiences were frustrating.  I removed that particular source entirely as unreliable.  Now watch it, somebody might revert me.  Constant314 (talk) 14:09, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
