Brooklyn Park
Hi. I've rolled back your edits on Brooklyn Park, South Australia because many of them appeared problematic. For example, this one had a misleading edit summary, an overly informal tone, and cited a dubious source. Could I please suggest you read the policy about what counts as a reliable source. Thanks, Meticulo (talk) 12:59, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. I will put them back with much better reference/sources. Western Shadow (talk) 14:53, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

A tip
Hi. Thanks for your efforts so far. I've upgraded the content about the brewery chimney a bit, as you had left some of it uncited (and other detail was lacking before you got there). Just a tip about Trove citations: if you click on the [i] at the side of the text and scroll down, you will see that it creates a Wikipedia citation. Note that it's not always perfect, and the newspaper name often needs adjusting so that it links to the correct paper, but it does save a bit of time when using Trove citations!

Hello, I'm Doctorkaufman. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to West Beach, South Australia have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you.Doctorkaufman (talk) 04:06, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
