Diamond and reliable sources

I reverted your edits again at Dustin Diamond. I see that you're a fairly new editor, so I can understand the confusion. I believe that you need to review WP:RS, which are Wikipedia's guidelines for what constitutes a reliable source. Blogs, wikis, and other self-published sites are not reliable sources by our rules. There is sometimes an exception for blogs that appear on newspaper sites, but only if the blog is clearly written by a regular contributor, and is subject to editorial oversight; the sfgate blog does not meet those criteria. IMDB has been pretty universally ruled an unreliable source except for very basic information, like release dates of movies and major cast/staff lists. Wikis, or any other site (including Wikipedia) whose content is provided entirely or primarily by open editing (i.e., anyone can add info), also don't constitute reliable sources. Also, please note that for biographies of living people, the sourcing guidelines are especially strict, and even more so when the information is negative or contentious. So you need to find extremely good sources to add info about a sex tape to a living person's biography--that would be an actual newspaper article (and not a tabloid/scandal sheet), or something similar. I recommend that before trying to re-add that info to the article, you instead bring whatever sources you find to the article's talk page and discuss the issue there, first.

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges.

Request reason:

Please give me a reason as to why I have been blocked? I admit it was a mistake restoring the wrong version to the last article but I believe my past edits on my account show merit and speak for themselves which is why I would like to be reinstated.Kasow187 (talk) 20:54, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

The reason is simple. The blocking admin saw compelling evidence that you are in fact a sockpuppet of Jackjit (talk · contribs). As such the merits of your respective edits are not relevant. Beeblebrox (talk) 21:49, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Please see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jackjit. Kasow has at least twice reinstated edits made by sockpuppets of this user.-gadfium 20:56, 28 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
