User talk:YourAsianBuddy

Welcome!
Hello, YourAsianBuddy, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Emeka Okafor, have removed content without an explanation. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles.

If you still have questions, there is a new contributors' help page, or you can and someone will be along to answer it shortly. You may also find the following pages useful for a general introduction to Wikipedia: I hope you enjoy editing Wikipedia! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically produce your name and the date. Feel free to write a note on the bottom of my talk page if you want to get in touch with me. Again, welcome! JesseRafe (talk) 17:46, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

Removing sourced material
Wikipedia is about cited material and not personal unsourced opinions. Okafor is a common Igbo name and Emeka and Jahlil are distant cousins. Both are true, and the cousins claim is cited in the article. JesseRafe (talk) 17:47, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Jahlil claims he is related to Emeka, but that is not true. Have you asked Emeka? I have close sources to Emeka Okafor, I'm talking IN-LAWS CLOSE, and they have told me Emeka and Jahlil are not related. I don't know what you want me to do to prove against so, record him saying it, asking Emeka's parents? I assure they are not related. YourAsianBuddy talk 12:50, 24 February 2017‎ (UTC)
 * Please refer to the above links about how and why we have the information that we do on these articles, and the criteria for including any information (especially for a living person) and the steeper criteria for removing that information after it has been properly cited. If you still have questions, feel free to ask them, but until then the double hearsay of what you say your in-laws say that Emeka Okafor says is not a valid source unless it is published in a neutral setting.
