November 2018 edit

  Hello, I'm Gaia Octavia Agrippa. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Illyrian mythology, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
Hello again. The reason I have removed your changes to Illyrian mythology is that you have not included any inline citations in your work. Having a list at the bottom of the page is not adequate. It is, in effect, an uncited essay. You'll see that the current article has lots of citations, even if they are from one book. It might be better is you try to add to the current article, or rewrite parts of it, rather than deleting the whole thing and adding you three unreferenced paragraphs. I am happy to help you with this or you can follow some of the links above to teach you the ropes. I will get your message if you reply here. Thanks, Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 03:44, 22 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
It is not up to me cite things for you. How am I supposed to do that? You are the one who has supposedly done this research. Without inline citations, there is no indication you haven't simply made things up. Do not re-add your unreferenced changes again. Gaia Octavia Agrippa Talk 17:44, 24 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
