Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Information icon Thanks for contributing to the article WECK ‎. However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that material must be verifiable and attributed to reliable sources. You have recently used citations which copied, or mirrored, material from Wikipedia. This leads to a circular reference and is not acceptable. Most mirrors are clearly labeled as such, but some are in violation of our license and do not provide the correct attribution. Please help by adding alternate sources to the article you edited! If you need any help or clarification, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you.

An entire entry was removed from the WECK page based on one reference to Wikipedia despite having references to other existing references.
YouTube and a third party website should be sufficient references. Changes will be made again without the first reference.

Fine to keep the conversation in one place, thanks. That appears to be some kind of fansite and does not appear to be a WP:RS in any way. Do you have any actual references that meet our standards? Kuru (talk) 13:25, 8 September 2018 (UTC) reply

The website attributed in this case is the legal and professional website of a talk show host that has been on the airwaves since 2010, both on WECK and other outlets. The show is a service and trademarked entity, and www.theedgeoftheunknown.com is not a "fan site." Nor is the YouTube page or iTunes, Tune In Radio, or I Heart Radio Page. This show has served the Western New York community for the last eight years both on terrestrial radio and on the internet. The suggested radio segment represented on YouTube is more than sufficient proof that the show aired on WECK with the newscasts, station identifications, and references to the station's phone number.

Here are additional references as to the veracity of who Mark Henry is and what the show is about.

Here is another Edge of the Unknown show featuring Susan Gerbic. [3]

These references more than meet Wikipedia credibility standards.

Thanks.
