re:Charlie Card
[edit]I didn't directly remove the images. I tagged them as possible violations because they were scans of copyrighted images that were claimed as fair use without a rationale explaining why their use was permitted. They were deleted automatically after seven days with no rationale being added. See here for more information on the fair use policy. Mr Senseless (talk) 17:53, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Meters. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sears, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. You cannot source a claim that a store has closed to a reference that says it will close. Meters (talk) 21:37, 14 September 2024 (UTC)
- And don't change the "as of" number of stores unless you have a new source that actually counts the stores. Please read WP:OR. Meters (talk) 22:02, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Sears, you may be blocked from editing. Exactly the same thing I warned you about a few months ago. You cannot cite a source that says one thing but claim it says something else,and you cannot claim that a source is as of a date that is after the source was published.
