Hi AmharaWAAGpublish, the topic of your new article, Amhara genocide, is undoubtedly important, but it is all the more vital to provide references. Please note that verifiability, as we call it, is one of Misplaced Pages's basic principles, and that neutral presentation of material to the reader is another. We aim to summarize what reliable sources have said on a topic. I note that you are working in your sandbox on a version of the article with references. Add these references to the existing article as soon as possible, please! Yngvadottir (talk) 09:59, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Welcome to Misplaced Pages. I noticed that your username, "AmharaWAAGpublish", may not meet Misplaced Pages's username policy because usernames must represent an individual, not a group. If you believe that your username does not violate our policy, please leave a note here explaining why. As an alternative, you may ask for a change of username by completing the form at Special:GlobalRenameRequest, or you may simply create a new account for editing. Thank you.

- Thank you for the note. I am using my own personal email address and password for this account. Also, i am authoring this article by myself but using references from various sources (one of them happen to be the Amhara WAAG). I will submit the username change form as you advised.
