nationmaster.com as a reference[edit]

This isn't an acceptable reference. The nationmaster.com page is just a copy of our own article on the subject. Everything under http://nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/ is a copy of Wikipedia. --Versa geek 06:35, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

eww.. I just realized how rude this sounds, sorry.. Nationmaster is one of many mirrors of our content. All mirrors should have a reference or link back to Wikipedia somewhere on the page. The links on Nationmaster are all the way at the bottom of the page. If you edit or read Wikipedia frequently, you can usually pick up on the writing style & know to look for the GFDL link back to Wikipedia. I appreciate your efforts to add sources. --Versa geek 06:51, 4 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

June 2024[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to XVideos, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Peaceray (talk) 20:06, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
