Add topicMirrors
[edit]
Thanks for contributing to the article Nyaika of Tooro. 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.

- Same problem at Uganda National Liberation Front. Please be more careful in your sourcing. Sam Kuru (talk) 14:10, 26 September 2026 (UTC)
- @B722N, Tamdra, Solomon Suubi, and Ssemmanda will: Pinging the facilitators of this event - yet another. I'm not clear on the training provided, but it seems odd that so many people in this event are having problems.Sam Kuru (talk) 14:38, 26 September 2026 (UTC)
- help me know how to identify verifiable sources that are not mirrors ERNEST WESAMOYO (talk) 17:10, 27 September 2026 (UTC)
- Don't use sources that very clearly attribute Wikipedia for their material. In the "Alchetron" source, it notes "References Uganda National Liberation Front Wikipedia (Text) CC BY-SA" with link back to our article. There are many other mirrors, some do not attribute Wikipedia in the way they are required to, but most at least try. I'm not sure how you're looking for sources, but using an AI/LLM site is usually not a great way to start off.Sam Kuru (talk) 21:18, 27 September 2026 (UTC)
Well, I don't think you could have a more blatant mirror than the one in this addition. Please consider this a final warning; if you're not going to evaluate the sources you are adding, please stop adding references. Sam Kuru (talk) 23:13, 10 November 2026 (UTC)
- OK ERNEST WESAMOYO (talk) 04:27, 11 November 2026 (UTC)
- What do you know that i don't know about identifying an authentic source besides mirroring wiki. Then how do you know a reliable source if you're seeing it for the first time ERNEST WESAMOYO (talk) 05:06, 11 November 2026 (UTC)
