Welcome!

Hello, Megatam, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits to the page Rich Piana have not conformed to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and has been or will be removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations that have been stated in print or on reputable websites or in other media. Always remember to provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living people must contain at least one reliable source.

Hello, I'm Gladamas. I noticed that in this edit to Rich Piana, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. –Gladamas (talk) 22:16, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

• If you are going to change information on Piana's death, then you must cite the reliable source where you got the information. —C.Fred (talk) 22:31, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

It's far better to go with a press report (newspaper, magazine, etc.) than a statement put out on the subject's YouTube page. The press report, a secondary source, is less likely to be biased. —C.Fred (talk) 23:05, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
