== Re:Adam Butler == |
|||
Hi, |
|||
I noticed you changed the position listed for [[Adam Butler (American football)]] without providing a source (either in the article or on the talk page). Although it may seem obvious to you that your edit is correct, that doesn't mean adding it was the right thing to do– [[WP:VERIFY]] & [[WP:NOR]] explain why, so I'd recommend reading them. I think they do a good job of explaining why adding & changing content without a source isn't permissible even when an editor is sure what they are writing is the truth. |
|||
If you have a source saying that Butler is a defensive end, you should probably cite it in the article; if you don't, I think it would be best to change his position back to defensive lineman, a term which reflects that he has some versatility. This also goes for [[Bruce Hector]] and [[Jaleel Johnson]]. Thanks. [[User:Hatman31|Hatman31]] ([[User talk:Hatman31|talk]]) 23:12, 6 May 2021 (UTC) |
