Welcome!
Hello, Paul S Cresswell, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Dhul-Qarnayn‎ have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

Something else I wouldn't expect you to know
And that I didn't know when I started. When you copy material from one article to another, you must use the edit summary to clearly state that you've copied it from name of article. This is a legal requirement for copyright reasons, and also allows us to trace the original editor of the text if necessary. Doug Weller talk 14:28, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
