editWelcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Mayerthorpe High School has been reverted.
Your edit here to Mayerthorpe High School was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://mobile.twitter.com/ngpsmhs/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a blog, forum, free web hosting service, fansite, or similar site (see 'Links to avoid', #11), then please check the information on the external site thoroughly. Note that such sites should probably not be linked to if they contain information that is in violation of the creator's copyright (see Linking to copyrighted works), or they are not written by a recognised, reliable source. Linking to sites that you are involved with is also strongly discouraged (see conflict of interest).
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 05:41, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Hwy43. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of hamlets in Alberta, 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. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

- Hi. Thanks for trying to reference Rochfort Bridge's population, but that source is not acceptable per WP:CANPOP, which states "Do not cite unofficial population estimates such as the "Welcome to Jonesville" sign...". Whether the population on the hamlet's welcome sign is up to date or decades old (which appears to be the case), we can only use population counts from an official Statistics Canada census or "properly sourced intercensal population and demographic updates from a government source such as Statistics Canada, a provincial statistical agency (such as BC Stats in British Columbia) or a formal municipal census (such as those in Alberta)." If you can confirm that the population of 90 comes from any past official federal census or any past Lac Ste. Anne County municipal census, only then could the population be added. Hope this helps explain.
Also, the only way we can include a nickname and demonym on the Rochfort Bridge article is if they can be supported by reliable sources. Note that WP:USERG within the last think specifically states we can't use "Content from websites whose content is largely user-generated is also generally unacceptable. Sites with user-generated content include personal websites, personal blogs, group blogs, internet forums, IMDb, Ancestry.com, content farms, most wikis including Wikipedia, and other collaboratively created websites. In particular, a wikilink is not a reliable source." Hwy43 (talk) 05:19, 3 January 2019 (UTC)
