Hello, I'm Mattythewhite. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Paul Gascoigne, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Mattythewhite (talk) 23:09, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi. The section I changed was source-referenced already I simply made it more readable. Firestar47 (talk) 08:09, 27 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi Firestar47! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Chris Froome that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Oops I did not realize that. Thanks. Firestar47 (talk) 07:17, 13 April 2023 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 16

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Tony Doyle (cyclist), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Danny Clark. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Micah Richards, 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. Mattythewhite (talk) 15:03, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Micah Richards, you may be blocked from editing. Transfermarkt is not a reliable source. Mattythewhite (talk) 15:40, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

@Mattythewhite: Why is transfermarkt unreliable? Firestar47 (talk) 15:41, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
