Please do not add or change content, as you did at Monroe, Massachusetts, 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. Magnolia677 (talk) 00:02, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Please take a moment to read MOS:LEAD, where there are examples of the first sentence for geographic articles. Magnolia677 (talk) 00:13, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hi, would just like to inquire if these said edits can be retrieved to publicity if proper sources are credited in factual messages ?? CommonwealthEditor (talk) 00:14, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, by any chance do you watch my edits live or screen? CommonwealthEditor (talk) 00:40, 28 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @CommonwealthEditor, yes! Your edits can be made public again if you add a proper source. Just re-add the text and cite it (similar on John Hancock Tower). Tip: mention editors using the '@' to ping them. I think @Magnolia677 might have missed your replies! SSR07 (talk) 00:22, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- how to link source to a fact? CommonwealthEditor (talk) 03:47, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Hey @CommonwealthEditor, looks like you figured it out! SSR07 (talk) 14:27, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thanks for doing this instead of threatening block and removing edits down by me CommonwealthEditor (talk) 23:34, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Brockton, Massachusetts, you may be blocked from editing. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:28, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- You should add “citation needed” over threatening a block @Magnolia677 :( CommonwealthEditor (talk) 23:37, 12 January 2025 (UTC)
- The language is part of the warning template. Editors use escalating levels of warning templates to notify editors of repeated problems with their edits. "Citation needed" is useful when you identify content that's been in an article for awhile but lacks a source, however when it's just been added, that editor should easily be able to cite the source and is expected to do so.

- I would like to say that less than 30 characters entered in past edits on this article were not facts so didn’t need citation or source CommonwealthEditor (talk) 20:39, 13 January 2025 (UTC)
