Need reliable sources

Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your interest in improving articles here on the site. Unfortunately, I had to revert two of your changes to the article on Jonas Noreika. An important rule in within Wikipedia is verifiability and that any text in an article must be able to be supported by a "reliable source". In your first edit, I couldn't find part of what you added in the source you provided. In your second edit, you used a source BY the person you were writing about. This is what we would call a "primary source". What you need to find is a "secondary source" ... someone else who was writing about this person being imprisoned for three months. Can you find a mention in some other news site? If so, that text could be added again with the new source. I hope this helps explain a bit about what Wikipedia is seeking in terms of references. Thanks again for your interest in improving Wikipedia. - Dyork (talk) 01:21, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
