Hello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Crofton, Maryland, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   01:00, 13 June 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Crofton, Maryland, you may be blocked from editing. Drmies (talk) 01:12, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Optionalmicrophone! Thank you for your contributions. This is an encyclopedia, so remember that it's a necessity to include references listing reliable websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you have used to write or expand articles. Please understand that these sources should verify the information in a fair and accurate manner. However, you must not copy and paste text you find anywhere, except for short quotations, marked as such with quote marks and carefully cited to the source the quote was taken from. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted by others if unreferenced or referenced poorly or if they are copyright violations. See referencing for beginners for more details.

I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Questions or type at the bottom of this page.

Hi, I saw that you had tried to add a citation—the correct syntax is tags around what you intend to appear as a footnote—but the Chamber of Commerce site does not verify that there is a mayor, let alone the name. I find only a Twitter account. You would need either a listing on the official community page or a mention in a newspaper or on a news site. Yngvadottir (talk) 03:59, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
