editHi! I had to revert some content that you recently added to the article on Emily Grierson. The reason for this is that you added material but the source you used didn't mention the character at all. In order to include a claim the source would have to explicitly state the claim - on Wikipedia we can only summarize what others have stated. We can't theorize or create new research based on existing sourcing that doesn't mention the topic and doesn't specifically say "X is Y". You can re-add the content, but you would have to find a source that actively makes this claim. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:35, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
