Disambiguation link notification for April 26Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Swimmer (1968 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Joyland (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I recently read the Count of Monte Cristo and saw the 2002 movie again. I noticed that the fairly common "differences between the book and novel" section was absent from the 2002 film wikipedia page and was going to write one. I thought a good place to start would be to read the history of the page, and there I saw that this section previously existed but you excised it. Can you please explain to me why it was removed, and guide me to avoid the same mistakes so that if I were to add this section, you would not remove that one as well. Thanks and I appreciate the help. This is my first time! Amitku53 05:51, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
Hi there. The BLP prod policy doesn't require reliable sources, just sources, which can be formatted as external links. There are probably hundreds of thousands of articles supported only or primarily by IMDb, and the community has never come to a consensus to delete them. If you feel this article needs to be deleted then it's probably best to take it to AfD, as directors/writers of mainstream films would usually be considered to meet the bare minimum of notability guidelines for creative professionals via reviews in newspapers/magazines eg [1].

Sorry! Sorry Doniago, about my recent... rampage, I was just mad, I kind of have a short temper... on the internet. Hey Doniago, my recent editing was not disruptive, there are lots of sources that support my argument, and you just contradicted yourself by saying that your argument was supported by IMDB, yet you later said that it is not a reliable source. Note: I am talking about List of American Dad! Characters, not Family Guy. Ibrahimsqureshi (talk) 17:39, 22 March 2014 (UTC)
IMDbWith reference to the above comment, I have noticed editors on the Help Desk frequently tell people the IMDb is not a reliable source of information. I concur with that 100%. I have noticed so many wrong facts and so much outdated information in IMDb biographies, for instance, that it has made me nervous of using it a reference "book" ever again. Do you think Wikipedia should perhaps make a bold general statement somewhere prominently in the Wiki Help pages to warn people off using the IMDb when compiling their articles? --P123cat1 (talk) 20:28, 2 April 2014 (UTC)
Betrayal at House on the HillHi, I'm just an extremely amateur editor -- usually I just edit for grammar. However, since I designed the board game Betrayal at House on the Hill, I added my name as designer after the game's publisher in the article. I see that you reverted my edit because you said that it was insufficiently sourced. Four of the six sources already listed include pictures of the game's box, upon which my name is visible. The linked review by Game Master Greg includes a blow-up of the box in which the name of the designer is extremely clear. There is also a link to Board Game Geek, where the designer and editors are also listed. My name is also listed as designer in the game's rules. What more needs to be done for this attribution to be properly sourced? 71.63.5.196 (talk) 15:28, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

Nicholas HoultMy bad, I only meant to remove the In Development project, not the sourced material. LADY LOTUS • TALK 13:45, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
