Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Philip II of Macedon, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Demetrios1993 (talk) 15:41, 11 May 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello Demetrios.
 * Thank you for pointing this out and I would be grateful if you could give me a little bit of guidance in this matter.
 * The contribution wasn't original research but I found the info while navigating
 * The dictionary of classical mythology by Pierre Grimal, more particularly the notice for Alexander of Lyncestis. If I didn't add it directly, that's because among the linked pages was that of Aeropus of Lyncestis, which talked about the matter and had a source, which I (wrongly) assumed was the same as my source. I will add my source to that article for sure.
 * Regarding the article for Philip, do you think I could/should add the paragraph again, this time with the source? I think it adds a valuable perspective to the speculation around his death.
 * Thank you very much too! Xandru4 (talk) 07:59, 12 May 2024 (UTC)


 * No worries Xandru4. You may restore the content, but with a proper inline citation supporting it. If you need assistance citing the source, let me know, and I will help you. Demetrios1993 (talk) 13:08, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
