November 2026

Hello, I'm Swatjester, and welcome to Wikipedia. I appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Naval artillery, 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. Please refrain from introducing original research in the form of edits that state something is "widely regarded" or "widely believed" as something, without providing a reliable source stating such; these are not "tone" edits, but substantive changes to meaning that must be supported. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 21:33, 4 November 2026 (UTC)

I've reverted this change in a number of articles -- you appear to have gone on a spree of making this change across numerous edits, none of which were sourced and most of which substantively change the meaning or terms of the sentence. Please do not do this again. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 21:34, 4 November 2026 (UTC)

My apologies, the articles which I have edited recently appeared to state assumptions as a fact with no form of reliable sourcing beforehand anyways, would it not be more accurate to classify it as an assumption? anyways, my apologies MOPERSONAL (talk) 21:43, 4 November 2026 (UTC)

Most of the changes that I reverted involved sourced direct statements or assertions of fact. For instance, here, you changed a sourced sentence about the fire rate of the Otobreda 127/54 from directly stating that "it can fire up to 40 rounds per minute" -- a direct assertion of fact and not an assumption -- to "has been reported to be capable of firing", a substantive weakening and not what the source says. You also changed it to state it was "widely seen" as capable, without clarifying the basis for it being "widely seen". Just because a factual statement on Wikipedia does not have an inline source does not mean it is an assumption nor that it has "no form of reliable sourcing" -- sourcing is only required for direct quotes or content that is challenged or is likely to be challenged. Thanks. ⇒SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 23:56, 4 November 2026 (UTC)
