Welcome!
Hello, Notsurewhereyoureadthat, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Touré
Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to make constructive contributions to Wikipedia, your edit to Touré (journalist) did not appear to be constructive, and has been reverted.

Regarding the New York Times article you cited for your addition that Touré is a black nationalist, it makes no mention that he is or considers himself a black nationalist. Interpreting it as such would constitute synthesis, which is not permitted on Wikipedia. See WP:SYNTH for more on this.

As for the addition of the ref tag further down in the article, I'm not sure what you were trying to do, but putting it there was not helpful, as it created a citation error and malformed the text of the article.

Please use the sandbox for any test edits you would like to make, make sure you use the Preview function before saving changes you're not sure about, and read the welcome page to learn more about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.
