September 2024

Hello, Filmbuff102, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as 2019AlwaysLit (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Mike Allen 08:30, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

January 2025

Hello, I'm Doniago. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Patrick Fugit seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please avoid language such as, "is (best) known for" unless you can provide a source that makes that assertion. It isn't on us to assess what an actor is best known for. DonIago (talk) 03:39, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Mykelti Williamson, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Waxworker (talk) 15:33, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Ken Marino, you may be blocked from editing. Waxworker (talk) 19:53, 5 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Luke Edwards Minnesota Twins game.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Luke Edwards Minnesota Twins game.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a copyright violation and has no credible claim of fair use or permission. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Filmbuff102! While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright and plagiarism issues. Here are the key points:

• Limited quotation: You may only copy or translate a small portion of a source. Any direct quotations must be enclosed in double quotation marks (") and properly cited using an inline citation. More information is available on the non-free content page. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners.
• Paraphrasing: Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information in your own words. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources as appropriate.
• Image use guidelines: In most scenarios, only freely licensed or public domain images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide may help with determining a file's eligibility.
• Copyrighted material donation: If you hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• Copying and translation within Wikipedia: Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. For translation, see Help:Translation § Licensing.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices. Persistent failure to comply may result in being blocked from editing. If you have any questions or need further clarification, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 17:52, 18 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comedy-drama

I've come across a couple of film articles created by you, in which you filed the article in "comedy films" and "drama films" and "comedy-drama films" categories all at the same time. So just for future reference, that's not how categories work: the comedy-drama categories are already subcategories of both the comedy categories and the drama categories, so a film goes only in the comedy-drama categories and does not need to be categorized as a comedy film and a drama film alongside that.

And by the same token, a film also does not go in "[Decade] films" (or "[Decade] [genre] films") for any decade that parents a "[Year] films" (or "[Year] [genre] films") category that the same film is also in — a film goes in any "decade" category only if there's no year-specific subcategory for that at all, while if a year-specific subcategory does exist then the film goes only in the year-specific category and not also in the decade category alongside it.

Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 16:26, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lindsey Broad edit

I have reverted your addition of an unsourced date of birth to Lindsey Broad. In addition to Wikipedia's basic principle of citing sources (Wikipedia:Citing sources), a special need for citations applies with regard to elements of a biography of a living person (WP:BLPPRIVACY). Feel free to add a date of birth when it is accompanied by a citation to a reliable, published, non-primary source. Eddie Blick (talk) 01:16, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
