Help

I have tried to edit pages for TV Stations in Los Angeles to reflect something that is missing from the page. it accepts the edit, but when I return to the page the next day my edits are gone, this has happened on more than one site. Whose controlling the page edits or am I doing something wrong.

Sorry to hear your having some trouble - I am not sure about why they are being removed without knowing the pages in-question- That said are you adding sources to the additions - we need to use references. This is an encyclopedia, so remember to include references listing websites, newspapers, articles, books and other sources you have used to write or expand articles. New articles and statements added to existing articles may be deleted if unreferenced or referenced poorly. See: Wikipedia:Tutorial/Citing sources for more information.Moxy (talk) 20:27, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

{{help}}an example would be the KCBS-TV wiki site where I am adding an inividula to the list of talent that has appeared on the station. I am adding a name to the list. How would I refence that or is someone disallowing the edit?

You haven't edited that page for at least 6 months (as shown by the history), if within that. Can you make sure you're hitting "Save Page" and waiting for it to reload the page before leaving the page? gwickwire^talk_edits 22:36, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
