@] Changing the content was a mistake, I am still learning. Instead of deleting the content I added for the documentary could you maybe help me find appropriate sources and add them because the information I added. It is indeed true. There is a lack of wikipedia articles on minorities because there is often a lack of reliable sources or very limited sources. How will we fix this gap if every article on minorities without a reliable source is deleted? Have you thought about leaving the information that was placed in the ] article under the documentary tab and just adding the "needs citation" tag to it? It would mean a lot to not just me but many faculty at the university if you could help us out by finding reliable sources or simply adding the "needs citation" instead of deleting all of the information because I believe it is important that this documentary be added to the article as a reach to close the minority gap on wikipedia. I truly hope you understand. If there are other suggestions you have on how I could add this documentary to the page I would love answers. | @] Changing the content was a mistake, I am still learning.

Hello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you made a change to an article, University of Northern Iowa, 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. Magnolia677 (talk) 02:45, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
- At User:MarsLovesDogs/citing sources, your edit summary was "automatic post as part of sandbox guided tour". I've just spent 10 minutes reverting a bunch of unsourced stuff you added to Misplaced Pages after you took your tour on "citing sources". Before you make any more edits, may I suggest a tutorial...Help:Referencing for beginners. Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 02:54, 21 January 2018 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content, as you did at University of Northern Iowa, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Linking to the landing page of the university is not proper sourcing. Magnolia677 (talk) 19:15, 22 January 2018 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Misplaced Pages's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages. With this edit you changed the wording of a quotation, removed the source cited, and then left a "citation needed" tag. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:55, 26 January 2018 (UTC)
@Magnolia677 Changing the content was a mistake, I am still learning. Instead of deleting the content I added for the documentary could you maybe help me find appropriate sources and add them because the information I added. It is indeed true. There is a lack of wikipedia articles on minorities because there is often a lack of reliable sources or very limited sources. How will we fix this gap if every article on minorities without a reliable source is deleted? Have you thought about leaving the information that was placed in the Shelley v. Kraemer article under the documentary tab and just adding the "needs citation" tag to it? It would mean a lot to not just me but many faculty at the university if you could help us out by finding reliable sources or simply adding the "needs citation" instead of deleting all of the information because I believe it is important that this documentary be added to the article as a reach to close the minority gap on wikipedia. I truly hope you understand. If there are other suggestions you have on how I could add this documentary to the page I would love answers. MarsLovesDogs (talk) 02:33, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
Sockpuppet investigation
Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Misplaced Pages account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/MarsLovesDogs, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Misplaced Pages administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Misplaced Pages policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Misplaced Pages community.
