Hello, I'm Ingenuity. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 12s, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 18:52, 12 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Under what section of 12s would I add information about who created the term 12s? Am I able to create a new section called 'The origin of the term 12s.' SEA visionary (talk) 17:07, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at 12s, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Apart from the improper addition of a source that made it appear as a red wikilink, WP:LINKEDIN specifies how it can sometimes be used as a reliable self-published'' source. However, because that LinkedIn page belongs to someone who is not the subject of the article (i.e. the subject of the article is the Seahawks' fanbase and not any one particular fan or person), it cannot be used as a source for that article.'' –WPA (talk) 09:37, 13 February 2024 (UTC)


 * that linked in page does belong to someone who is the subject of the article. That linkedin page belongs to Chris Johnson who coined the term 12s. All the proof that is needed to show that he, in fact, coined 12's is right there for all to see. SEA visionary (talk) 13:54, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * under what heading or section of 12s would I be able to cite who coined 12s...it is a very important part of the history of the 12s. Thank you. SEA visionary (talk) 13:57, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * how come the picture of the 12s jersey was removed? These are all important things to show who coined the term 12s. SEA visionary (talk) 13:58, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * That someone claims on there own linkedin page is not a reliable source. Also as that page also says "SEA Visionary" it suggests you are them and writing about yourself. See Conflict of interest and also Reliable sources KylieTastic (talk) 17:53, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * there are links to news stories on that linkedin page that validate the claim SEA visionary (talk) 17:58, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
