Please sign your messages on talk pages with four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically insert your "signature" (your username and a date stamp). The button, on the tool bar above Wikipedia's text editing window, also does this.
If you would like to play around with your new Wiki skills without changing the mainspace, the Sandbox is for you.

Quechuan languages

Hi Quechuista, thanks for adding to/updating Quechuan languages with citations.

As a note, you referenced Wikipedia's verifiability policy in your edit summary (material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, and contentious material). By reverting your edit, I effectively "challenged" the addition, meaning a source is needed.

While I agree that replacing unsourced incorrect information with unsourced correct information is generally good, it's also very likely that these edits will be frequently challenged as it's very difficult for outside parties to verify whether the information you added is truly an improvement in accuracy. To prevent these challenges, I recommend you cite statements and explain any removals of content in your edit summaries.

I hope this interaction doesn't discourage you from editing on Wikipedia—we always need new editors who see problems and want to fix them! If you have any questions about editing this article or others, please don't hesitate to reach out. Best, Wracking ^talk! 08:22, 9 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
