Hello, I'm Glman, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to 2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series, it appears that you added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. glman (talk) 17:17, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you. I'm starting to learn what's acceptable and what's not :D
- In regards to this particular instance, I did some research and found the original source of the information. Results – Patrick Staropoli. It lists the upcoming fall Martinsville truck race, which is what I heard. Is this a reliable enough source to add it back to the page? This website is published by Staropoli himself, from what I can tell. Ofoxu (talk) 17:56, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
- No worries! It's a learning curve. Know that if most people remove or comment here, it's not personal! I would hold off - while a self-published source can be used, we tend to prefer more reliable sources (newspapers, entry lists, team announcements) over blogs. I'll do some digging and see what else I can find! I'd check out the Wikipedia policies on WP:RELIABLESOURCES too! It can be helpful. It also helps if you reference sources when you add material, you can do that using the tools at WP:REF. glman (talk) 14:22, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 17
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2024 LiUNA! 175, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Connor Jones was added. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
