editHello, I'm ToBeFree. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Steven Crowder, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 06:04, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
Citing YouTube
editHi, regarding your question, care must be taken, especially when writing about living people, not to misuse primary sources. (WP:BLP, WP:PRIMARY)
- "frequently" is your personal interpretation (WP:OR)
- YouTube is generally not a reliable source (WP:SPS).
If there is absolutely no doubt about the identity of a YouTube account, it may within very careful reason be used as a low-quality source. Details can be found at WP:ABOUTSELF. Best regards ~ ToBeFree (talk) 07:32, 1 October 2019 (UTC)

editYour recent editing history at Steven Crowder shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. — Bilorv (talk) 09:05, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
- I don't send the above message as an intimidation, but because I would like for you to participate in the talk page discussion I started around this content. Talk page discussions are the proper way to introduce contentious changes. Five reverts is not acceptable—even if the quality of the content being introduced is gradually improving—and if the number rises any higher now that you understand this, I'm afraid you may indeed be blocked to prevent disruption. In general, it's a good rule on Wikipedia that the more you discuss and less you revert, the more seriously you will be taken, and the more likely your changes are to be accepted. — Bilorv (talk) 09:09, 1 October 2019 (UTC)
