== [[WP:RS/IMDB|IMDb as a source]], removal of embedded notes, and future events == |
|||
Hi there, re: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vishwaroopam&diff=739821026&oldid=733280268 these edits], IMDb is [[WP:RS/IMDB|not considered a reliable source]] because it is user-contributed, which means that anyone can add content at IMDb. They don't perform sufficient fact-checking. Other examples of [[WP:UGC|user-generated content]] include blogs, discussion forums, comment sections of websites, and even Wikipedia itself. All these are insufficient as references. In this case a reference wasn't required for the film's plot. A film that has been released may be used as an implied reference for uncontroversial details like plot and cast. |
|||
In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Vishwaroopam_II&diff=next&oldid=738999663 these edits], you removed an embedded note that reads "As the film has not yet been released, additions to this section must be sourced per [[WP:CRYSTAL]]". This note is here for a reason. The film has not been released, so unlike the situation above, we cannot rely on the film as a reference. This note is here to instruct editors such as yourself not to add unsourced content to the section, which you did by adding "[[Russell Geoffrey Banks]] as jim". This needs to be sourced. (And Jim should have been capitalized.) If the note was unclear, feel free to let me know how to make it clearer. |
|||
Lastly, all future events must be sourced per [[WP:CRYSTAL]], because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball--we don't attempt to predict the future. Thanks and regards, [[User:Cyphoidbomb|Cyphoidbomb]] ([[User talk:Cyphoidbomb|talk]]) 07:16, 17 September 2016 (UTC) |

==Disambiguation link notification for September 27== |
|||
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Malayalam cinema]], you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages [[Sharath]] and [[Alphonse]] ([http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Malayalam_cinema check to confirm] | [http://dispenser.homenet.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Malayalam_cinema fix with Dab solver]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> |

[[Image:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] [[Wikipedia:Welcoming committee/Welcome to Wikipedia|Welcome to Wikipedia]]. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, talk pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at [[:User talk:Thandrapaparayudu]], is considered [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines#Editing comments|bad practice]], even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the [[Wikipedia:Welcome|welcome page]] to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. ''<br>You are allowed to delete messages, just don't change the message as you did to mine. It would be in your interest to take the advice being posted, rather than just deleting it without comment.
