January 2018 edit

Please carefully read all that is below, to ensure that your change does not get reverted.

Greetings, my name is !dave, and I noticed you that you added or changed information to Indore district, but you did not supply a reliable source to verify what you wrote, or you did not supply a source at all. Instead of immediately reverting your changes, I am giving you 24 hours to supply a reliable source for your change. I will revert after this point. Thank you for your understanding.

Confused? Click 'Expand' on the boxes below to explain more!

What do I mean by reliable source?

Simply explained, a reliable source is known for good fact-checking. The source can be trusted. Reliable sources are therefore not blogs or "self-published sources" (see WP:SPS for explanation), tabloid newspapers or anything that doesn't seem too interested in providing factual information.

How do I add a reference?
For a standard web reference

Next to what you wrote, insert <ref>{{cite web|url=INSERT THE URL HERE|title=INSERT THE PAGE TITLE HERE|accessdate=ENTER TODAY'S FULL DATE|work=INSERT THE WEBSITE'S NAME}}</ref>

The above is the basic information required in a reference. For more parameters, including the date of the work and author, see Template:Cite web.

This will appear like:

Arthur always likes to eat cheese, but not Andrew.[1]
