Hello, I'm Nardog. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Spanish phonology, 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. Thank you. Nardog (talk) 00:55, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
- Ok thanks, no problem. Do you always have to add a citation if you are writing a non-obvious claim, or does it depend on the quality of the article?
- I often see stuff written without any citation, so I'm not sure when this is acceptable to do. For example there is a very similar claim to mine made on "Transcripción fonética del español con el Alfabeto Fonético Internacional" without any citation but then again pretty much the whole thing has no citations.

- That there exist unsourced material does not give you an excuse to add more of it. See Wikipedia:Verifiability for more. Each language edition of Wikipedia has its own rules and conventions by the way, though I doubt the Spanish edition's rules on verifiability are very different from the English one's.
