25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Glman, and welcome to Wikipedia ↗. We appreciate your contributions ↗, but in one of your recent edits&nbsp;to :2025 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series ↗, it appears that you 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.<!-- Template:uw-nor1 --> glman (talk) 17:17, 28 August 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you. I'm starting to learn what's acceptable and what's not :D
:In regards to this particular instance, I did some research and found the original source of the information. Results – Patrick Staropoli ↗. It lists the upcoming fall Martinsville truck race, which is what I heard. Is this a reliable enough source to add it back to the page? This website is published by Staropoli himself, from what I can tell. Ofoxu (talk) 17:56, 28 August 2025 (UTC)
::No worries! It's a learning curve. Know that if most people remove or comment here, it's not personal! I would hold off - while a self-published source can be used, we tend to prefer more reliable sources (newspapers, entry lists, team announcements) over blogs. I'll do some digging and see what else I can find! I'd check out the Wikipedia policies on WP:RELIABLESOURCES ↗ too! It can be helpful. It also helps if you reference sources when you add material, you can do that using the tools at WP:REF ↗. glman (talk) 14:22, 29 August 2025 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 17



Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2024 LiUNA! 175 ↗, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Connor Jones ↗ was added. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>
