Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 04:20, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Jim1138 (talk) 04:51, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

References

Adding references is how we ensure that content is valid. Without references, a reader can not easily validate information and there is no presumption of accuracy. See Help:Referencing for beginners and Help:footnotes. This is covered by the Wikipedia policy of wp:verifiability (WP:V). Please wp:cite your edits with wp:reliable sources (RS). Per WP:V unsourced content can be removed. Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 04:51, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia needs to be wp:verifiable You need to add references the same time you add any significant information. That's the way Wikipedia works. Jim1138 (talk) 04:55, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Jim1138 (talk) 04:58, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Okay, I'm fixing it now, please leave it for me to fix

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello CS-HIST3002, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Ninja Diannaa (Talk) 13:37, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics

Looks like you have been repeatedly warned about this article. Stop removing valid references. Stop adding fake refs that go nowhere. Stop adding unreliable refs, such as Wikipedia. I suggest you do small edits or edit in your sandbox. The article is currently live and must follow rules. In your sandbox, you can take your time without it being deleted.

The fake refs are plain as day and you should know, you added them. They are the ones with ref tags but only have some fake material with sup tags inside. The do nothing and go nowhere. Bgwhite (talk) 04:53, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

Fake ref: [[Australia at the 2002 Winter Paralympics#cite note-:3-20|^[20]]]
