Hello TheroneCI, Wikipedia article content must be based on published sources. This allows the reader to verify that the content is based on reliable sources. I removed unsourced content from the History section of Southern Alamance High School because it could not be verified. You may have noticed the box at the top of the article which says "Unsourced material may be challenged and removed." What I did was challenge and remove content. You restored the content I had removed for being unsourced (not verifiable) without providing citations to support it. You have the burden of adding references that verify the content you are restoring. You did not provide any new references. Because the content remains unverifiable I will again remove it. If you feel the content is supported by the current article sources please let me know in detail what sources support what content. Please review the policy at WP:BURDEN and then supply the necessary citations if you decide you wish to restore some or all of that content again. It would be helpful if you provided an edit summary in the future that explained why you are making a change. Gab4gab (talk) 19:34, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hello again, You added "Alamance County Register of Deeds" to Southern Alamance High School. I am guessing you intend that as a reference. The purpose of a reference is to inform the reader of where they can find published content that supports content. In this case it is unclear what content is being supported by what published source. It would be helpful if you provided a full reference including the specific document, the date it was published/produced and perhaps a quote. Primary sources are generally not preferred but perhaps this is an exception. Citing sources can be confusing. If you have published sources you want to cite I'd be happy to assist you.

I see that you have again restored the content I removed as unsourced and not verifiable. You again did not supply any citations to support the content you restored. You also did not provide any justification or explanation in your edit summary. I've started a discussion on the article talk page concerning Unverifiable content which you are invited to contribute to. This is your opportunity to make a case for your point of view. It is important for you to communicate with other editors as you work on Wikipedia, especially when conflicts arise. Gab4gab (talk) 23:50, 1 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

I have again removed the same unsourced/unverifiable content. Gab4gab (talk) 10:11, 3 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, TheroneCI. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Southern Alamance High School, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Because all of your edits have been to Southern Alamance High School it suggests you have special interest in it.

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Southern Alamance High School. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to be blocked from editing Wikipedia. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. Thank you. Gab4gab (talk) 16:56, 4 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

If you revert on that article again I will block your account. Time to start discussing on the talk page — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:28, 5 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
