January 2022[edit]
Please do not add or change content, as you did at New Georgia campaign, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. AustralianRupert (talk) 08:02, 23 January 2022 (UTC)
- What if there is no primary source or such a list of ships sunk during campaign X? could this information never appear in wikipedia? I am unable to find such a list.
If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
- G'day, thank you for discussing the matter. Please be advised that Wikipedia only allows information that is listed in reliable sources. If you cannot find a reliable source for the information, unfortunately it cannot legitimately be listed here. Secondary sources are usually preferred, but primary sources can be ok if they are used in a manner that complies with WP:PRIMARY. That said, I imagine that a source such as Morison's Breaking the Bismarcks Barrier will likely mention the losses that you wish to add, albeit on different pages. If so, and if you can get your hands on it, you can simply add a reference to Morison with multiple page numbers. If it only mentions some of the losses, but other losses are covered in other sources, then you can use citations to multiple sources, but they must be referenced in the specific article you are adding the information.
