Please check your sources
editHi! Thank you for contributing to #1lib1ref. However, many of your edits have been undone because you haven't check if the sources are reliable (i.e. published by an organization with a reputation for high quality editorial practices). Several of your citations were: mirrors of Wikipedia, undergraduate papers, and other websites that aren't clear about their quality. Please take a bit more time to evaluate the sources before citing them. Hope you keep up the great work, but also hope you pay more attention to your edits, Sadads (talk) 05:04, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Mirrors
edit
Thanks for contributing to the article Zambezi. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. Kuru (talk) 14:36, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
- Again, please be more careful with your sourcing. I realize you are part of some contest, but you will need to slow down and carefully evaluate the sources you are using. WP:RS has the guidelines that may be helpful. Hint: if you find the exact same sentence in a source, it's likely either copied from here, or a prior editor committed a copyright violation - either way, we need to resolve.

- Again, very clear mirrors here,
here, and here. Forum posts here and here. Now Facebook, it seems, here, along with a bunch of junk scrapers and random websites on high visibility articles. As you have chosen not to respond in any way, I have disabled this account until you provide some kind of outline on how you will adhere to WP:RS and cease this disruptive editing.
