[edit]
Hello, I'm Doug Weller. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Los Lunas Decalogue Stone, 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. Doug Weller talk 07:46, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
- What's up Doug Weller? Appreciate your helping ensure that Wikipedia wis well-sourced. Sources included per your suggestion. Kamatoa (talk) 19:38, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry to be a pain, but those sources don’t seem to mention the stone let alone say no evidence. You can’t interpret sources. Doug Weller talk 20:36, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
- Doug, not sure that’s entirely fair - the citations clearly show the route taken by the Battalion and that it’s not close to the stone, but even so I think leaving the descriptor of “speculative origin myth,” is a fair description of the Mormon hypothesis so that is probably sufficient.

- Not without reliably published sources. See WP:NOR.And of course the article talk page is a better place for this discussion. Doug Weller talk 08:13, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
