[[Image:Ambox warning pn.svg|25px|alt=|link=]] Please stop adding unreferenced or [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|poorly referenced]] biographical content, especially if controversial, to articles or any other Wikipedia page, as you did at [[:Sam Aston]]. Content of this nature could be regarded as [[Wikipedia:Libel|defamatory]] and is in violation of [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|Wikipedia policy]]. If you continue, you may be [[Wikipedia:Blocking policy|blocked]] from editing Wikipedia. <!-- Template:uw-biog3 --> – [[User:DarkGlow|DarkGlow]] • 20:05, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

== Direct, reliable sources needed for Days of the Year pages ==
You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages now require direct [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] for additions.  For details see [[Wikipedia:Days_of_the_year#Direct_citations|the content guideline]], [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Days_of_the_year#Style|the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide]] or the edit notice on any DOY page.  Almost all new additions without a [[WP:RS|reliable source as a reference]] are now being reverted on-sight.

Please do not add new additions to these pages without direct sources as the [[WP:BURDEN|burden to provide them]] is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages.   

Thank you.   [[User:Toddst1|Toddst1]] <small>([[User talk: Toddst1|talk]])</small> 21:12, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
