Hello, I'm Lord Belbury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Naga Munchetty, 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. Lord Belbury (talk) 20:20, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Tanya Beckett, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Dates of birth for biographies need a source, per WP:BLPPRIVACY. Lord Belbury (talk) 20:30, 11 March 2022 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Kasia Madera, you may be blocked from editing. ''Dates of birth, again, need a source to confirm them. The Companies House source cited does not list an exact date of birth, only a month.'' Lord Belbury (talk) 17:08, 15 March 2022 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Dan Walker (broadcaster). &#32;-- Fyrael (talk) 17:39, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

Welcome
Welcome to Wikipedia, ToryFan64188! 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.

Weak biography sourcing
Hi ToryFan. Do you understand the concern that's been raised here with use of unreliable sources on biography articles?

Some of the sources you're using (like biogs.com) aren't considered reliable by Wikipedia so shouldn't be used, and for any date of birth we need to meet the requirements of WP:DOB, which says that Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public. - we can't use a tweet thanking someone for a birthday gift as a source for a date of birth (not least because it's possible to receive gifts long before or after a birthday).

By making a bit of an educated guess about someone's date of birth or current place of residence, you risk putting inaccurate information out into the web, where other sites or lazy journalists will believe a Wikipedia search and repeat an incorrect detail as fact. Biography articles have to be held to a high standard here. --Lord Belbury (talk) 18:41, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I do apologise for this, I have found several sources saying with the birth years I put in, I do get that not all sources are reliable so I will try and be more careful with what I fill in I have been trying to be accurate but I do see that it's a lot more difficult then it seems  ToryFan64188 (talk) 19:47, 16 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Your level of research seems impressive, but it really has to stay in step with Wikipedia policy on biographies. Reading up on whether a Companies House record can source where someone lives (surely a "correspondence address" could equally just be somewhere that they collect their post from?), I actually find that WP:BLPPRIMARY goes as far as saying Do not use public records that include personal details, such as date of birth, home value, traffic citations, vehicle registrations, and home or business addresses., so they shouldn't be used at all. We should stick to press sources, books, personal statements and similar.
 * Would also note that WP:BLPSELFPUB suggests that Twitter can't be used to source "claims about third parties", so we shouldn't write about a person's spouse based solely on a tweet. --Lord Belbury (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Please try harder to stick to what sources actually say: a tweet of "Follow @LatinNewsLondon (where my husband works) for info on the political and economic situation in #LatAm" cannot be used as a source for the name and position of that husband, and someone tweeting that they consider themselves "a South London girl" does not mean that both she and her husband currently live in South London. I know it's tempting to add to an article by writing what you know to be true and then finding sources that more or less back it up, but those sources should always support everything in the statement that you're writing. --Lord Belbury (talk) 07:00, 22 April 2022 (UTC)

Definitely check Reliable sources/Perennial sources before adding a source for a biographical detail that's been otherwise difficult for you or past editors to confirm: thepeerage.com was dismissed as a reliable source a couple of years ago. --Lord Belbury (talk) 08:47, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi ToryFan64188! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.
