I am no good At this because I am no good At spelling.please help me through this .(Derick). I know that Sarah Losh never used the name ( Sara) and I know that Catherine Isabella Losh never used (Katherine or Katharine) I have signatures of the two of them that nobody else has because found them at the Archives center that was in a box for 150 years . Everybody that wrote a book on the Loshs followed Dr Henry Lonsdale book but he was wrong.and I can prove it.please get back to me .I have a lot of papers to prove it. I don't know what (tildes) is. 7654. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Derick Quinn (talkcontribs) 02:12, 14 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

What follows is a modified version of WP:RIGHTGREATWRONGS
Wikipedia is a popular site, and its articles often appear high in search engine rankings. You might think that it is a great place to set the record straight and right great wrongs, but that's not the case. We can record the righting of great wrongs, but we can't ride the crest of the wave because we can only report that which is verifiable from reliable and secondary sources, giving appropriate weight to the balance of informed opinion: even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it.
So, if you want to let the world know about your discovery in primary sources on Wikipedia, you'll have to wait until it's been reported in a peer reviewed journal, or published in a book from reputable publishing houses. Wikipedia is not a publisher of original thought or original research. Wikipedia doesn't lead; we follow. Let reliable sources make the novel connections and statements. What we do is find neutral ways of presenting them.
I hope this will help you understand what the consensus among Wikipedia editors is. -- PBS (talk) 06:43, 1 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
