IMDb

Hi. I wanted to explain why I reverted a couple of your edits. The IMDb is user-generated content and thus not a reliable source. It shouldn't be used as a source on Wikipedia, and you shouldn't copy its content into our articles. Instead, you can check industry periodicals, such as Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, and others from this list. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:44, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

February 2023

Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Minecraft. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. Thank you. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 13:47, 21 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Blue Shadows on the Trail moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Blue Shadows on the Trail, is not suitable as written to remain published. An article needs more information and citations from reliable, independent sources to remain in the mainspace. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline, has suitable content and thus is ready for mainspace, click the Submit the draft for review! button atop the article.

March 2023

Hello, I'm InfiniteNexus. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Johnny English (franchise), 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. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:52, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

A bowl of strawberries for you!

Hello Leikstjórinn,

Thank you for your contribution to presidential election. In my view, it will shape America and the world. Regarding the inforBox photo, I would like some feedback on when and how we can finialize the RfC. It started in April 2024, so it's been quite a while now, so I hope we can replace the photo.
