Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Amir Khan (boxer). Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 10:01, 4 April 2017 (UTC) I've cited reliable sources. Stop deleting my edit.BoxingGuru78 (talk) 10:48, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add defamatory content, as you did at Amir Khan (boxer), you may be blocked from editing. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 13:30, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

How is my editing defamatory and disruptive? I posted links with reliable sources.BoxingGuru78 (talk) 14:02, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

It's defamatory and disruptive because statements like that absolutely do not belong in the lead section of an article, as it violates WP:NPOV, particularly WP:WEIGHT. If you're so keen on highlighting the Brook–Khan saga, go ahead and collect a ton of high-quality, reliable sources—I'm talking five or more—and create a subsection for it in the article prose. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 14:08, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

I'll do that. But where does it say how many reliable sources I have to link? It's just, I don't often do any editing, so thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I couldn't find where it says I need 5 or more reliable sources though. BoxingGuru78 (talk) 14:29, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

The idea is that if you're going to write stuff about Khan avoiding Brook, even with sources (yes, we all know he's ducking—that's not the point here), you must provide counter-arguments from Khan's side as well in order to balance things out and not give undue weight to either argument. Therefore, sources will have to be numerous and from a range of established publications. I just threw a figure out there to indicate that just one or two is not enough when it comes to highly contentious subjects like this. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 15:48, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

Okay, sounds good. Thanks for the advice and suggestions, much appreciated. BoxingGuru78 (talk) 22:59, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
