Information icon Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Jamie Laing, 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. Waxworker (talk) 19:49, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Waxworker! I’m new to editing and will learn how to reference properly. Thank you! Mr Fawkz (talk) 20:16, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The source used on Jamie Laing isn't appropriate to use - please see WP:BLPPRIMARY, which states that you should "not use public records that include personal details, such as date of birth, home value, traffic citations, vehicle registrations, and home or business addresses" as a source.

Okay thanks for the tip! Mr Fawkz (talk) 22:02, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Cecil Rawle, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page St. Vincent. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ â€˘ Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello. I wanted to let you know that your recent edit(s) to Jason Schwartzman have been removed because you cited the information you added to IMDb. As discussed at WP:RS/IMDb, IMDb is considered a questionable source, and generally should not be used as a sole reference. You are welcome to re-add the information using a different reliable source, or with an additional source confirming the information from IMDb. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 15:54, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
