Happy editing! Peaceray (talk) 22:12, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your message, My account is almost new here and Im still in learning process. I got it why some of my edits were reverted but I think few of my edits shouldn't have been reverted. Can partial reversion be done ? Can we revert already present odd things from "see also" section ? Polarbear678 (talk) 09:26, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I also extend my welcome to you. Please note that Wikipedia depends on the use of citations to reliable sources in order to support WP:Verifiability of content. Unsourced content may be challenged and removed at any time, and you should not restore unsourced content again without citations; doing so may result in warnings on your Talk page. If you have any questions about sourcing, please feel free to {{Reply}} below, or to start a new query at the Wikipedia:Help desk. Thanks, and once again, welcome!

It is hard to find sources that are considered reliable here on some things and I think in those situations only other options are present as citation. Thanks for your suggestion. Polarbear678 (talk) 16:46, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

When you cannot find reliable sources on a topic, then you cannot add anything about the topic, regardless how familiar you are with the topic yourself. There is no other alternative, and maybe this sounds harsh, but it is much easier to learn this starting out, than later on. If you continue to add content without sources you will likely find your editing privileges temporarily suspended for a day or two, and if you do it again when your privileges are restored, you may be blocked indefinitely from editing.

It is really just this simple: If you can’t find reliable sources, don’t write about it. It’s best to learn this cardinal rule about editing here sooner, rather than later. I’m available anytime to answer your questions, and the Help desk is there for you too. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 19:36, 30 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. I'm not sure what you mean the by the sentences aren't looking that good. The text makes it seem like any bondage will do after all the edits but only specific types will prevent leverage and I was trying to make this clear.

Last line in that edit wasn't looking so nice to read. I thought It should have been framed in some other way. After reading it again, I realised that last sentence was looking little complex but was ok. You can restore that edit. Polarbear678 (talk) 21:39, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
