Edit summary

[edit]

Information icon Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! KyleJoantalk 03:53, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello colleague

[edit]

I noticed by doing a diff over the course of your extensive, and generally helpful of the BLP actor article edits at Taylor Russell, that the entire first paragraph is unsourced. It might be that you untended later appearing citations to cover this paragraph, but not having the relevant citations within the paragraph (near to the sentences covered) is confusing to readers (who understand that the reliability of the content is based on its being sourced from references), and, as well, makes it difficult for any incoming editors to verify new content. For these reasons, content that is not "sky is blue" common knowledge that is unsourced violates WP:VERIFY, and will be considered suspect until it is sourced.

So, if you can return there and tell us, where did that paragraph (with all its stated facts) come from, it would be a help in moving the artcle toward encyclopedic, and it would allow removal of unsightly template messages (tags) about this issue.

Note, also, be very careful to hone closely to the source text. Earlier editing citing TheGrio.com stated the actor was born in Vancouver, but neither her full name, or date of birth, or place of birth actually appear in that article. (It is a great source, just not for those facts.) As well, Russell is not even mentioned in a book that was cited earlier (that is mostly in fact about scholarly aspects of stage productions, e.g., Shakespeare). So we should only place citations that actually cover the content, and then edit the content to match the citations. Cheers. (a former teacher, unfortunately). 2601:246:C700:558:2882:A59A:8DC5:CD1D (talk) 07:13, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sarah Chalke, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Waxworker (talk) 23:23, 10 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

July 2023

[edit]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at David Eigenberg, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Waxworker (talk) 23:08, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

August 2023

[edit]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, you may be blocked from editing. This is the edit referenced. While "mixed" is sourced, "mixed to positive" is not. Writing "critical acclaim" also notes a higher level of praise than the source verifies. Rather than just delete these notices, please consider them. KyleJoantalk 23:24, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
