Note from Clovermoss

edit

I noticed that in this edit you made [1] you stated that you added an inline citation. As far as I can tell, in this edit you actually removed a citation without adding one. Don't worry too much worry about it, we all make mistakes and I'm sure you have the best of intentions. Editing in your sandbox can help if you want to test things. I've undone your change for now, but if you have any questions feel free to ask me and I'll try to help. Also pinging Ian (Wiki Ed) in case that'd be useful.

There's a helpful video about adding a citation in source editor here:

By the way, it's nice to see a student from Ottawa! I'm from Niagara Falls myself, so not too far from there. :) Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 03:38, 25 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Listowel District Secondary School moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Listowel District Secondary School, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
