editHello, I'm Dr Greg. I noticed that you made a change to an article, List of metropolitan areas in the United Kingdom, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

editPlease do not add or change content, as you did at World Trade Center (2001-present), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. David J Johnson (talk) 23:20, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

editPlease do not add commentary, your own point of view, or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles, as you did to Birmingham. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:20, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham
editHi - You have now twice added claims to this article that the hospital "is one of the largest single-site hospitals in the United Kingdom and is part of one of the largest teaching trusts in England." Please can you read WP:RS and WP:IS. Sources need to be independent and the Trust website is clearly not an independent source. Please can you familiarise yourself with our policies before adding any more claims like this? Thank you. Dormskirk (talk) 22:06, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
103 Colmore Row (New Building) moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, 103 Colmore Row (New Building), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. ~ Amkgp 💬 17:58, 12 June 2020 (UTC)

editBirmingham metropolitan area
editHello - when you blanked and overwrote the disambiguation page Birmingham metropolitan area with an article, you should have left a hatnote to the other use at Birmingham metropolitan area, Alabama. I've now done that. Regards, Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:13, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
