Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to Craig Chandler has been reverted, as it introduced negative or controversial biographical material without providing a reliable source for this information. Wikipedia requires that all such material be sourced to address the issue of libel. Thank you. —Sean Whitton / 18:36, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Craig Chandler

Hi there. I removed the content because it was unsourced: on Wikipedia we try to ensure that content in our articles is verifiable by citing reliable third party sources, rather than just adding information. This is particularly important for biographies. If you find a source for your information, I encourage you to re-add it to the article. Thanks for contributing. —Sean Whitton / 18:47, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

It would be good, then, if you could add an inline reference to your comment at the top of the article - this ensures that it is absolutely clear that what our article says is verifiable and confirmable. Do you know how to do this, or would you like some instructions? —Sean Whitton / 18:51, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

There is detailed info on this page - it explains how to cite your references in the page fairly clearly. Let me know if you need any further assistance. —Sean Whitton / 09:00, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 20:07, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
