Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. We appreciate encyclopedic contributions, but some of your recent contributions, such as your edit to the page Romani people, have removed content without a good reason to do so. Content on Wikipedia should not be removed just because you disagree with it or because you think it's wrong, unless the claim is not verifiable. Instead, you should consider expanding the article with noteworthy and verifiable information of your own, citing reliable sources when you do so. If you'd like to experiment with the wiki's syntax, please do so in the sandbox rather than in articles. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! tgeorgescu (talk) 10:19, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the message! I believe that there is proper reason for the deletion of the line because it claimed that English Romani and Welsh Romani prefer to be called “Gypsies” when none of the sources back that up. Under “a good reason to do so” one of the reasons why it might be a good reason to delete is Undue Weight. On that article it says “material that cannot be supported with high-quality sources” in which that sentence follows. Not only that but a person responded to a chat I made under the Romani people and said that if the source is unclaimed by its citation then it’s encouraged to be deleted and that the policy being that it shouldn't be readded unless an inline citation to a reliable source is provided. I would love to be proven wrong and that the majority of English and Welsh Romani prefer to be called “Gypsie” but until a source says that it shouldn’t be on the page. Thank you for showing me resources so that I can learn more on how to contribute!Bluntilda (talk) 10:49, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yup, I have reverted my own revert, giving you the benefit of the doubt. tgeorgescu (talk) 11:29, 13 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
