STOP this weak editi at once

[edit]

Do not place unsourced material.

o not place, date and grammatically unsourced statements.

I did source the statements. I am not sure why the citations didn't make the published page. I might have made and error there.

I'm not sure what a "grammatically unsorced" statement is. Jafnharr (talk) 13:44, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have now cleaned the page up removing unsourced material and formatting a few references properly. Please read WP:CITE. Thanks. Dormskirk (talk) 14:42, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you,

I understand that my prose might not be perfect, but I thought it more important to capture the details and worry about the formatting later. I've had a few edits (with their citations) deleted, with the reason given that the citation did not corroborate the statement, when it clearly did. Do you know the reason for this? Jafnharr (talk) 08:37, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It may be because you are not formatting your citations properly. As previously suggested, please read WP:CITE to find out to do this. I would strongly advise against "formatting later": you should properly format the citations as you go along or the details you have captured will not stand up to verification. A template is available (and widely used in this article) to help you with this. Dormskirk (talk) 08:54, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New section.

[edit]

Would it be possible to create a new section for additional reading/bibliography?

There are a few books that are related:

Formation and history

[edit]

The very scant information in the "Formation" section is lacking a significant amount of detail. If someone could see fit to adding some of the details below it would make the article much richer. I would do it myself but it will only get deleted. The source for this content is already cited in the formation section. Jafnharr (talk) 09:21, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed what you had included above as much of it had been copied and pasted from [1]. As such it was a breach of copyright. I recommend that you read WP:V, WP:CITE and WP:COPYRIGHT before making any more edits. Dormskirk (talk) 10:51, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
