Verifiability and sourcing

While editing here, it's important that all editors understand respect Wikipedia's core principles of WP:Verifiability. This requires that all material be attributable to a reliable source. You can do this by adding a citation for the material you are adding; see Help:Footnotes for details on how to do this. You may find Template:Citation helpful for this purpose.

Regarding your recent additions at Bishop Kearney High School (Irondequoit, New York), you added unsourced material on two occasions, here and here. After your first change was undone, you should have stopped and followed the recommendations at WP:BRD to Discuss any disagreement about the issue on the article's talk page, rather than resinsert the material again.

Please add citations to the Notable alumni section. Unsourced material at the article may be removed. Further insistence on inserting unsourced material at the article may result in warnings here on your Talk page. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 19:50, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Notable Alumni

Moved from User talk:Mathglot § Stop Being a Boomer

Thanks for your comment at my talk page. We don't expect our readers to do Google searches when reading articles to see if everything they are reading is true or not. We expect them to find footnotes that verify the information. That's one reason why the policy of WP:Verifiability is there, and why articles have footnotes. If those alumni you added are sourced in other articles, then great! That means that it will be incredibly simple to source them at the Bishop Kearney article—no research required, just copy the sources over. We do expect editors here to comply with Wikipedia policies and guidelines.

There is ongoing discussion about this at Talk:Bishop Kearney High School (Irondequoit, New York)#Notable Alumni, and you are welcome to contribute your thoughts there. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 22:53, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Brockport High School

Much like the case above, I notice that you reinstalled the unsourced material in the Notable alumni section of the article Brockport High School without justification. I've tagged the section as unreferenced for now; please source these items. You're welcome to contribute at Talk:Brockport High School#Notable alumni as well.
