Evil Under the Sun locations?

Amazing that a whole page on English actor "Andrew Lynford" has no "sources" WHATSOEVER, and all it gets is the odd "citation needed", yet my input with as many references as I can find, and is, without doubt, correct, is just deleted by a plastic, fantasist, wannabe "writer" from Deludedsville. Absolute Joke!

Thanks for your research on the filming locations. I am presently collecting images of the locations on Commons, but not for all of them can I find free media. Could I persuade you to donate your pictures to Commons?

And I would like your opinion on this: I think I recognise this place, this view from the film, the scene where Poirot is walking around the island, thinking about what could have happened. He should be standing pretty much in the same place as the photographer. What do you think? --Judithcomm (talk) 11:22, 25 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Evil Under the Sun (1982 film): though you may recognize certain locations while viewing the film, it is inappropriate to add this information to the article without a reliable source. Phrasing such as "the locations were well stitched together" are particular examples of editor opinion being weaved into the article. Even with my edits there are no citations asserting that these locations were used, or that the coordinates (!!) are accurate, but I'm assuming these are obvious to viewers of the film who are familiar with the locales, and not likely to be challenged. However your editorializing of what can or cannot be seen in the background of certain scenes is unencyclopedic and, frankly, trivial. Thanks.— TAnthony^Talk 19:40, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the response to this? It's as if these inaccuracies are correct. DenbySpinks (talk) 15:01, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

THIS was answered comprehensively! The locations this idiot is referring to are self-evident, (rather like referencing the Sydney Opera House and proving that it's in Australia), and the, (nonsense stated about), 'background' was included to prove that two scenes were shot in the same place, even though they were supposed to be hundreds of miles apart, "stitched together" was a reference to that. All of which went straight over this guy's head. DenbySpinks (talk) 18:10, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BilCat. I noticed that you made a change to an article, McDonnell Douglas DC-10, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page.

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to McDonnell Douglas DC-10, but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. - BilCat (talk) 04:49, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Robert Vahey, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Secret Army and Wycliffe. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello, I'm Toddy1. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Look at Life (film series), 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.

Hello, I'm Toddy1. I wanted to let you know that some of your recent contributions to Tim Turner have been reverted or removed because they seem to be unsubstantiated defamatory personal commentary by you. Take a look at our welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.-- Toddy1 (talk) 13:01, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It isn't a 'defamatory comment' by me! I couldn't care less.

It is a comment by a third party who claims that Mr Edmonds' version of events is untrue. DenbySpinks (talk) 23:03, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi DenbySpinks! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Peter Edmonds that clearly was not.^[1] "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. -- Toddy1 (talk) 13:03, 23 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

Firstly, I've been editing Wiki for about 15 years on and off. I do understand about 'referencing', and how that works on Wikipedia. You've obviously never seen "Look at Life", as it's common knowledge that the series was riddled with errors, - in an age before Google/social media communication, I suppose it was forgotten before it was unearthed - but I appreciate the need for referencing, EVEN THOUGH SOME PAGES GET AWAY WITH HAVING NONE AT ALL!

As for the 'minor editing'... again, yes, it's more about spelling/punctuation etc. However, this edit DID NOT alter *meaning* of the article, merely added GENUINE context. This was within a TV documentary on the subject, but I shall attempt to find the reference online. DenbySpinks (talk) 22:04, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
