[edit]
Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Nikola Tesla in popular culture, 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) 22:31, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Waxworker I sourced it and the three other revisions you undid to the Wikipedia article on the game. I'm not connected to the game or publishers. Just wanting people to know how these characters are being utilized. Ctsinclair (talk) 04:28, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- MOS:POPCULT states that "Cultural references about a subject should not be included simply because they exist. A Wikipedia article may include a subject's cultural impact by summarizing its coverage in reliable secondary or tertiary sources. A source should cover the subject's cultural impact in some depth; it should not be a source that merely mentions the subject's appearance" - a reliable source discussing the cultural impact of the characters in the game is necessary to demonstrate the appearances' notability. A bluelink to the article itself is insufficient. Waxworker (talk) 08:27, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Waxworker looks like I could remove a lot of things from the Nikola tesla in pop culture page using that rule.
- Thanks for answering my questions. I looked this up but didn't find it. I'll stop trying to make changes. The rules are not consistently applied. Ctsinclair (talk) 16:52, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
