@~2025-32462-20: - Images uploaded to image hosting sites would be an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source - a review of the game/coverage in gaming news (e.g. IGN, GameSpot) discussing the boss or an announcement from an official source such as the developer or publisher would be suitable.

@~2026-19330-83: - Drafts may be submitted for review - see WP:AFCREVIEW for guidance.

Howard Morris

This is regarding your reverting of my edit to Howard Morris.

Whay did you revert my edit? Howard Morris did provide his voice acting for the Miision: Magic Saturday morning cartoon series. He voiced Vinnie, Socks Mr. Samuels, Tut Tut, Ptolemy, additional voices. If you check the Wikipedia article for the cartoon series, whose link I provided, it will show Howard Morris among the voice cast list. It is there. All you need to do is check it out for yourself, and you'll see his name on the list. His name is also on the lists of both the IMDB pages for Howard Morris and Mission: Magic!.

I'm leaving you this message with all due respect. I simply thought that I would clear this up.Frschoonover (talk) 14:00, 29 November 2025 (UTC)

@Frschoonover: - The addition was unsourced - IMDB is also an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:IMDB, and a wikilink to the Wikipedia article for the show is also not in itself a source. If he is credited for the roles in the show, Template:Cite episode may be used to cite the credits themselves, but a reliable secondary source discussing the roles would be better.

Tommy Tedesco

Got your note about not adding information under the "as leader" page. Since none of the other "as leader" albums had notes, I did not think it was necessary, sorry. This album is outstanding, and I simply felt it should be included since he was the leader of this session just months before he died: https://www.discogs.com/release/11022885-Tommy-Tedesco-The-Best-For-Last

You can add it as you wish, since I do not wish to step on any toes. Or not. I'm sure the fans like myself who visit this page would want to know about this fine collection. The album was released by his family on CD Baby. Anthony Richardson (talk) 20:43, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

@Anthony Richardson: - Discogs is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:DISCOGS - ideally the other entries on the article should be sourced as well, which isn't a good example to follow. If reliable sources discuss the album, it can be re-added with a citation. Waxworker (talk) 15:28, 14 October 2025 (UTC)

Why are you removing my revisions

Waxworker, I have been noticing that you have been removing my revisions with the pages I edit, I’m telling you everything I put is real, just because it’s unsourced doesn’t mean you remove it, and there are some pages I edited that I put sources in it but you just remove it again.

Guide to temporary accounts

Hello, Waxworker. This message is being sent to remind you of significant upcoming changes regarding logged-out editing.

Starting 4 November, logged-out editors will no longer have their IP address publicly displayed. Instead, they will have a temporary account (TA) associated with their edits. Users with some extended rights like administrators and CheckUsers, as well as users with the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will still be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range.

How do temporary accounts work?

• When a logged-out user completes an edit or a logged action for the first time, a cookie will be set in this user's browser and a temporary account tied with this cookie will be automatically created for them. This account's name will follow the pattern: ~2025-12345-67 (a tilde, year of creation, a number split into units of 5).
• All subsequent actions by the temporary account user will be attributed to this username. The cookie will expire 90 days after its creation. As long as it exists, all edits made from this device will be attributed to this temporary account. It will be the same account even if the IP address changes, unless the user clears their cookies or uses a different device or web browser.
• A record of the IP address used at the time of each edit will be stored for 90 days after the edit. Users with the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will be able to see the underlying IP addresses.
• As a measure against vandalism, there are two limitations on the creation of temporary accounts:
  • There has to be a minimum of 10 minutes between subsequent temporary account creations from the same IP (or /64 range in case of IPv6).
  • There can be a maximum of 6 temporary accounts created from an IP (or /64 range) within a period of 24 hours.

Temporary account IP viewer user right

• Administrators may grant the temporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right to non-administrators who meet the criteria for granting. Importantly, an editor must make an explicit request for the permission (e.g. at WP:PERM/TAIV)—administrators are not permitted to assign the right without a request.
• Administrators will automatically be able to see temporary account IP information once they have accepted the Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy via Special:Preferences or via the onboarding dialog which comes up after temporary accounts are deployed.

Impact for administrators

• It will be possible to block many abusers by just blocking their temporary accounts. A blocked person won't be able to create new temporary accounts quickly if the admin selects the autoblock option.
• It will still be possible to block an IP address or IP range.
• Temporary accounts will not be retroactively applied to contributions made before the deployment. On Special:Contributions, you will be able to see existing IP user contributions, but not new contributions made by temporary accounts on that IP address. Instead, you should use Special:IPContributions for this (see a video about IPContributions in a gallery below).

Rules about IP information disclosure

• Publicizing an IP address gained through TAIV access is generally not allowed (e.g. ~2025-12345-67 previously edited as 192.0.2.1 or ~2025-12345-67's IP address is 192.0.2.1).
• Publicly linking a TA to another TA is allowed if "reasonably believed to be necessary". (e.g. ~2025-12345-67 and ~2025-12345-68 are likely the same person, so I am counting their reverts together toward 3RR, but not Hey ~2025-12345-68, you did some good editing as ~2025-12345-67)
• See Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer § What can and can't be said for more detailed guidelines.

Useful tools for patrollers

• It is possible to view if a user has opted-in to view temporary account IPs via the User Info card, available in Preferences → Appearance → Advanced options → Enable the user info card
  • This feature also makes it possible for anyone to see the approximate count of temporary accounts active on the same IP address range.
• Special:IPContributions allows viewing all edits and temporary accounts connected to a specific IP address or IP range.
• Similarly, Special:GlobalContributions supports global search for a given temporary account's activity.
• The auto-reveal feature (see video below) allows users with the right permissions to automatically reveal all IP addresses for a limited time window.

• How automatic IP reveal works
• How to use IP Info

Copycat user

Looks like you have a copycat Polavarian fanfanboy (block_talk) 20:11, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

I blanked my page. I know this won't excuse what I've done, but nonetheless, Waxworker, if you're reading this, I'm sorry for plagiarizing your page. Polavarian (talk) 20:44, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

I don't actually remember if there is anything wrong with it. I just wanted to let Waxworker know, just to be safe. fanfanboy (block_talk) 21:14, 31 October 2025 (UTC)

@Polavarian: - Using others' userpages as a reference for making your own is fine, but copying my entire userpage (including content saying you've created/edited artices that you haven't) seems inappropriate to me, though I'm not sure that there's any specific policy against it. Ultimately this seems like it was in good faith, and removing the copy of my userpage resolves the matter. Category:Userbox galleries and Category:User namespace themed userbox galleries have many lists of userboxes related to various subjects that may be helpful to browse if you want to find userboxes related to your interests.

Cartoon Network Philippines Power Rangers

Power Rangers series on CN PH sources

https://web.archive.org/web/20090920031408/http://www.clickthecity.com/tv/tvnetworks.php?netid=103 WilkersonAddict (talk) 15:53, 1 November 2025 (UTC)

@WilkersonAddict: - The reliability of ClickTheCity hasn't previously been discussed at WP:RSN and Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Sources also has no consensus as to its reliability, but it seems fine to me as a source for Power Rangers Jungle Fury having aired on the channel, though it doesn't discuss Destroy Build Destroy or either show being "exclusive" to Cartoon Network Philippines. Waxworker (talk) 17:30, 1 November 2025 (UTC)

I just know that the Power Rangers series has been airing ever since in the Philippines. Because I live there. And I thought the Asian feed also have PR but it turns out only the Philippine feed has it.

Another evidence:

https://l1nk.dev/yJr6H

I also don't get why I need to have source when some of the content there don't even have sources sited. You should check that too. And as for ClickTheCity, anything before 2018 is reliable. WilkersonAddict (talk) 19:50, 1 November 2025 (UTC)

@WilkersonAddict: - Can you elaborate on what the linked evidence is? I'm unable to view it as I don't directly click on links to websites I don't recognize, Archive.ph is unable to archive the link properly, Archive.org saves the link as a redirect to something else, and Archive.org links sometimes 'break containment' and open in the main browser. Other content on the article being unsourced is an issue, and not a good example to be emulated - such unsourced content may be challenged and removed at any time. Personal experience watching the channel is also WP:OR and unreliable. Waxworker (talk) 17:47, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

The link is a video of a Power Rangers CN PH bumper on YouTube. I think someone from Southeast Asia should be managing this page. WilkersonAddict (talk) 18:33, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

@WilkersonAddict: - Youtube is a generally unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:RSPYT, unless the channel that uploaded the video is that of a reliable source, e.g. an official Cartoon Network youtube channel. Waxworker (talk) 18:38, 6 November 2025 (UTC)

That's stupid. And this is stupid and I do not care anymore. I don't think you even know about Philippine TV. WilkersonAddict (talk) 04:18, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

Lance Robertson's birth year.

He celebrated his 60th birthday this year, and also his IMBD page (which is already sourced on his article) also says that he was born in 1965 BratzGurl254 (talk) 20:44, 2 November 2025 (UTC)

@BratzGurl254: - IMDB is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:IMDB - having IMDB as an external link is not the same as using it as a source. The linked instagram source only indicates birth month and day, not year, and there's no source cited saying that 60th birthday was this year. Dates of birth are a sensitive piece of personal information per WP:DOB, and must be properly sourced, or be removed. Waxworker (talk) 20:20, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

If IMBD is an unreliable source, than how come it's used on this site for extended links, huh?

@BratzGurl254: - IMDB is an unreliable source as it is WP:USERGENERATED, but linking it may be fine under the external links section - see WP:IMDB-EL. Waxworker (talk) 01:33, 20 November 2025 (UTC)

still doesn't make much sense but whatever, I've given up caring BratzGurl254 (talk) 01:53, 20 November 2025 (UTC)

Franco Barbi (Lupara Citation)

Is the official Outlast Trials trailer for the character sufficient citation to bring up the depiction of a lupara for the page? Still getting used to the citation system SantaCarlaResident (talk) 21:11, 3 November 2025 (UTC)

@SantaCarlaResident: - Per MOS:POPCULT, reliable secondary sources need to discuss the cultural impact of the appearance - "Cultural aspects of the subject should be included only if they are supported by reliable secondary or tertiary sources that discuss the subject's cultural impact in some depth". Something like an official trailer discussing the gun may be fine for the article for the game, but an official source like this is a primary source - secondary sources (e.g. something like IGN or GameSpot) discussing how important the gun is to the game and story in depth (not a few sentences or one paragraph), and how this depiction of the gun has impacted pop culture, would be suitable. Help:Referencing for beginners also has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful. Waxworker (talk) 17:51, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

Citing an uncredited source

Thank you for correcting me, didn't know that IMDb is unreliable! But that raises a question, how can I cite a source for an actor being part of a project while they're uncredited? The only source outside of IMDb I have is... well, my own ears, clearly hearing that actor's voice which is unique enough to be identifiable. And a bunch of Reddit threads discussing it, which are obviously unreliable too. PiMoN4342 (talk) 16:40, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

@PiMoN4342: - Personal analysis (WP:OR) and Reddit are unreliable as you've said - unfortunately, uncredited roles like this may not have any reliable sources discussing them. Her BTVA page doesn't appear to discuss S.T.A.L.K.E.R either. If reliable gaming news sources have discussed the roles (e.g. IGN, GameSpot, etc) something like that would be great (WP:VG/RS has a helpful non-exhaustive list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games previously discussed by other editors), but otherwise without any reliable sources verifying this it shouldn't be on the article. Waxworker (talk) 16:50, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

Fair enough, thank you

Although I am confused by the presence of other items without a citation, but not gonna dig into those as they're irrelevant here! PiMoN4342 (talk) 21:18, 10 November 2025 (UTC)

What I'm adding on those pages is all true. Wiseanna29 (talk) 14:15, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

@Wiseanna29: - Even if it's true, what the weather is in each episode or what color the house is doesn't seem necessary to note and seems like trivia to me, and I think it should be removed. Waxworker (talk) 14:20, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

@Waxworker: - But I think we should keep the main character parts as it's important. --Wiseanna29 (talk) 14:23, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

@Wiseanna29: - I feel that the 'main character' of each episode is already made clear by the plot description of the episode. Waxworker (talk) 14:25, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

But not all the episode plots mention it. Wiseanna29 (talk) 14:27, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

@Wiseanna29: - The majority of the plot descriptions do - any that don't I think could be slightly rewritten to address this. Waxworker (talk) 14:29, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Well, Plum Abroad, Penny is the main character & Harvest, Spencer is. Wiseanna29 (talk) 14:33, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Regarding my inclusion of Chisa in the video game section of Hisako Kanemoto’s article

Here are sources, included are a tweet by Kuro Games and while I’m not sure if it counts as a reliable source, Chisa’s page on Behind the voice actors website

https://x.com/WW_JP_Official/status/1989558984659898696

https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/video-games/Wuthering-Waves/Chisa/

Hope that’s sufficient HydrantPedestrian (talk) 06:28, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

@HydrantPedestrian: - The official tweet would be fine as a reference - Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful. BTVA is a generally reliable source per WP:BTVA, but the role isn't marked as verified with a green checkmark, and shouldn't be used in this case. Waxworker (talk) 00:11, 23 November 2025 (UTC)

W.A.R. for Acorn Atom

Hi, I learnt how to add references to wikipedia and readded the Acorn Atom version to W.A.R. If you can check if I did it right, I would appreciate the help! AirHistorianUK (talk) 07:41, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

@AirHistorianUK: - You added the citation correctly, though wikis are an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source as anyone may edit them, and they shouldn't be used as a reference. WP:VG/RS has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games that have previously been discussed by other editors, and Archive.org has many magazine scans that may be helpful.

IABotManagementConsole [1.3]

Hi, I saw your edits using the IABotManagementConsole [1.3] tool. Can you please teach me how to use this tool? How can I install this? Avidanalyst (talk) 00:03, 24 November 2025 (UTC)

@Avidanalyst: - IAbot may be used by clicking on "Fix dead links" in the page history of the article you want to run the bot on, and then when it's finished running you can open the archive links added to double check that they work, and replace them with working archives/remove bad archives as needed. IAbot works erratically and frequently has a a high delay of several hours or days, which in my experience generally leads to the tool not running on the page at all and timing out. At the time of writing, it currently isn't working, atleast for me. Waxworker (talk) 02:23, 24 November 2025 (UTC)

Thank you so much. Avidanalyst (talk) 18:02, 24 November 2025 (UTC)

Mistakes

I believe you made some mistake on Christy Karacas, I was not a sock. ~2025-31339-58 (talk) 07:59, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-31339-58: - I was reverting the edits of the blocked sock ~2025-34539-45 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log) on the article, however your edits add unsourced content/content not in the cited sources (e.g. no source for Tom Ruegger, Klasky Csupo doesn't appear to be mentioned in refs). Waxworker (talk) 07:50, 26 November 2025 (UTC)

Actually it was in the sources. ~2025-31339-58 (talk) 21:39, 26 November 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-31339-58: - I don't see Klasky Csupo, Hanna-Barbera, or Ripley's Believe It or Not! mentioned in any of the four sources cited. Can you quote specifically where they appear in the sources? Waxworker (talk) 03:46, 28 November 2025 (UTC)

Edit to founders of Alias Systems

Hello, I have tried to add my name to the list of founder of Alias Systems, and I see that you have undone my edits a couple of times. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alias_Systems_Corporation

Please advise on how I can make this change stick. I was a founder of Alias Research (which became Alias Systems). I added as evidence the incorporation documents from the Province of Ontario. Let me know what's needed to keep my name as the list of founders. OptionalParameter (talk) 23:45, 28 November 2025 (UTC)

@OptionalParameter: - Please see WP:COI - directly editing articles related to subjects you have personal involvement in is discouraged, and making edit requests on the talk page is the preferred avenue. 'uncleleosmixeddrinks.com' doesn't appear to be a reliable source, and neither is Google Drive as content on file sharing sites is WP:USERGENERATED. In this case, I've reviewed some of the other sources already on the article and Computer Graphics and Computer Animation: A Retrospective Overview discusses your involvement - I've added an in-line citation under the 'History' section and re-removed the Google Drive reference, as content in the infobox doesn't need to be cited if it is referenced in the body of the article. Waxworker (talk) 17:41, 29 November 2025 (UTC)

Your changes look great - thank you for doing this. OptionalParameter (talk) 18:49, 29 November 2025 (UTC)

Ansley Wilcox

Sorry just re your comment on my talk page I did leave a source which was the book the "Power Broker" by Robert Caro. Would you prefer I use the primary source cited within the book or change the format of the citation. Just was unsure of the issue. Thanks! CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 13:30, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@CraigGoodwin1: - Much of the added content is unsourced, e.g. "Moses wrongly and maliciously accused Wilcox of corrupt practices concerning Wilcox's method of garnering assistance from Paul A. Schoellkopf, head of the Niagara Falls Power Company to purchase parcels of land when they went up for sale so they could be ensured for park use", and the content was originally added by a blocked sockpuppet, Theodore Larson 1961, who has previously added content not in the cited sources, so the content is suspect. Can you quote specific sections that support the content added? Waxworker (talk) 13:45, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Ok will do sorry CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 13:58, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

I have quoted specific pages for the content added from the powerbroker as the primary source. Also added some supplementary citations to support this primary source. please let me know if there is anything else I can/should do to improve this edit.

Thanks! CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 14:24, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@CraigGoodwin1: - Can you quote specific portions of the book that support the content using the 'quote=' citation parameter - also everything is sourced to page 254, is this correct? The 'fundinguniverse' ref doesn't appear to mention Schoellkopf, land being used for parks, Wilcox, or Robert Moses. What is this reference being used to support in the sentence it's cited for? Waxworker (talk) 14:34, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Sorry will remove fundinguniverse ref you are probably right was just citing the foundation of the company which was relevant to the creation of the park. Also how do I make it so that each reference is a different page I think I was just using the reuse citation then changing the page for each one not knowing it changed the page for all of them lol. CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 14:39, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@CraigGoodwin1: - Help:References and page numbers has guidance regarding citing different page numbers for the same reference, but in this case I believe that just duplicating the citation and changing the page numbers would be apt as separate citations would be required for having different quoted sections in the citations. Waxworker (talk) 14:44, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Ok I changed the page numbers to be correct but I genuinely have no clue how to use quote=. I went to both quotations and citing sources help pages but couldn't work it out and every time I used it on the edit source page it just wouldn't work as I intended it to. Sorry. CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 14:56, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

@CraigGoodwin1: - 'Quote' is a parameter in Template:Cite book and wouldn't work in citations that aren't using the cite book citation template - I see that some of the added citations are not using it, which may be the issue. Waxworker (talk) 15:01, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Ok I did this and included specific references to the book with excerpts

thanks for the help CraigGoodwin1 (talk) 15:36, 30 November 2025 (UTC)

Hello, sir @Waxworker... Please revert any edits made by User:~2025-37475-65 and any edits made by User:~2025-37506-95 because they're having adding any untrue, unsourced, unreliable and unverifiable information across Wikipedia. Thanks..... ~2025-37970-82 (talk) 12:09, 2 December 2025 (UTC)

Fixed my mistake

So, I added a source to the "2002 in British Television" page, so I could be spared. Rohan Hordern (talk) 20:05, 3 December 2025 (UTC)

@Rohan Hordern: - The BBC reference indeed verifies the content added and is fine as a source, though the citation is a bare url - ideally citations should be formatted to have additional reference information such as title, date published, etc that may be helpful to readers and to help mitigate WP:LINKROT concerns. Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful, and WP:BAREURL discusses concerns tied to bare URLs. Waxworker (talk) 15:16, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

Determining a poor source

I thought my source was really good for Mio Mao. Fandoms are surpringly reliable, especially for outdated media, like old, obscure shows. But I do understand the unfortunate part where the Fandom page doesn't list their sources. Is that why it's a bad source? Can it not be considered an original source?

Just fun questions. You seem to know a LOT and I learn best via application and discussion. Bgmenconi (talk) 10:50, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

@Bgmenconi: - Fandom wikis, and wikis in general, are an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source as they are edited by users who could write anything, regardless of veracity. Fandom in particular has repeatedly been discussed at WP:RSN - see WP:FANDOM. Wikis may be a helpful resource for casual use, but cannot be relied upon as a source. Waxworker (talk) 15:08, 4 December 2025 (UTC)

Berwick Saga translations removed

You removed information that there are 3 translations for the game Berwick Saga while saying Forums are not reliable neglecting the fact that these kind of ROM hack translations are released in forums and these release threads of each translation was linked as reference so you could instantly see when it was released. Now I ask you which source could possibly be more reliable regarding a ROM hack translation than the official release thread? And please reestablish the changes you have deleted. Thanks. ~2025-42324-42 (talk) 19:20, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-42324-42: - MOS:VGSCOPE #12 discourages listing unofficial translations unless independent reliable sources like gaming news sites have covered it (e.g. IGN, GameSpot) - WP:VG/RS has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games that have previously been discussed by other editors that may be helpful. Primary source WP:USERGENERATED forum threads are unreliable, and don't show that the translations are notable. Waxworker (talk) 02:51, 22 December 2025 (UTC)

There is literally a fan translation mentioned of Tear Ring Saga on the same page and it doesnt have a reference at all as far as I can tell. I just expanded on this idea. Why didnt you delete this too? Well, I dont think you should because Japan-exclusive titles having translations is relevant to the readers in general. As far as the forums are concerned I think you're taking it too far with your bad source claim since this is about whether or not my claim is true and proveable. The release pages should be more than sufficient since you can not only verify the date but also download the file there. But if you still think that's not enough I could provide Fire-Emblem news websites who mention the release although that would be a secondary source while the primary source is more reliable. ~2025-42453-10 (talk) 23:43, 22 December 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-42453-10: - Fansites are generally unreliable sources - see WP:VG/RS's section on fansite sourcing. The mention of the 2012 fan translation on the article was sourced to this article from Retro Collect, which appears to be a WP:BLOG (the site's staff page only lists one person and every news post on the site appears to be attributed to them despite the page discussing a small team) - I've removed it as it does not appear reliable. The claim that that it was completed in 2016 was also unsourced. If reliable sources do not discuss the translation, it should not be discussed on the article. Waxworker (talk) 21:37, 23 December 2025 (UTC)

Well, at least you are being consistent, however imho you are doing the users a real disservice here by removing correct and useful information. Fan translations are being released on forums and fan sites mostly. The information that they exist to Japan-exclusive games are pure gold for players who don't speak Japanese. And then saying that the official release page is unreliable information because it's a forum or fan-site is pushing the source claim to absurdity. The creators of the translations themselves post information on who did it, when, how and give preview pictures and a download to the respective translation. What more proof do you need that they exist? Do you want the president of your country to officially announce it? Everybody who had the links I had provided to the respective translation could within a few minutes effortlessly prove the existence of said translation to upmost certainty. The files themselves contain ReadMe text files which also confirm the dating, and obviously the files themselves are proof of their existence. Therefore I think you should reconsider or consult a fellow admin about this. ~2025-42723-43 (talk) 11:25, 24 December 2025 (UTC)

@~2025-42723-43: - I believe that MOS:VGSCOPE is clear in this regard - a wider discussion to change it could be raised at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games or Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Video games. Even if something is true, it shouldn't be added to an article if no reliable sources have discussed it - see Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth. I'm confused by what you mean by "fellow admin" - I am not an administrator. Waxworker (talk) 17:18, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for your edit on Winter clothing

I put the name of the fabric then the company name. I organized the list. Alympia.Ninan (talk) 02:11, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

@Alympia.Ninan: - Additions such as "Thermo Ionic Lining Technology" were unsourced - I think that the 'Materials' section in general should be removed due to being unsourced, and I don't think that a long list of materials is helpful to the subject of winter clothing in general, and would be better addressed in prose. Waxworker (talk) 17:19, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

These insulators and liners are common knowledge for winter jackets and clothing. These are the big brands and what they are doing proprietary. I organized the list and even added to the list to keep it organized. Give it a chance for references. Alympia.Ninan (talk) 23:49, 26 December 2025 (UTC)

Source for entry on Junkie XL Game list

Hi @Waxworker thanks for drawing my attention to not citing the source. Initially, I wanted to cite a source but I realized that the other game lists did not have sources so I didn't know whether where the proper placement would be. Aside that, which would be a more reliable source? There are the audio files on archive.org. There are also entries of this track as part of SSX 3 soundtrack track list on Genius. Other wikis also say this song was part of the game list as I did see also see the track name in the game itself (but I understand this can be questioned). But I don't know what would be the best one to use as viable source that will be accepted. Can you help me out please? Ken Stacks (talk) 01:08, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

@Kendrick Carrey: - Genius is a questionable source per WP:GENIUS - generally in my experience games with a lot of licenced music like this have articles with soundtrack lists published by reliable gaming news sources (e.g. IGN or GameSpot), but the only article like this I found from IGN doesn't mention his involvement or Emerge. The only reliable source I could find mentioning Junkie XL's remix of Emerge being in the game is this article from GamesRadar, which is a reliable source per WP:VG/RS (a list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games previously discussed by other editors) - I've re-added SSX 3 to the article using it as a ref. For future reference, Help:Referencing for beginners also has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful. Waxworker (talk) 21:04, 28 December 2025 (UTC)

Windy Park Fallout 76

I am not sure what citation is needed, she played the character in the game and I linked the character and game. I do not see any citation for her other game roles including Ae-ri, also from Fallout 76. Gurluas (talk) 22:45, 10 January 2026 (UTC)

@Gurluas: - Other content being unsourced on the article is an issue, and a bad example to emulate - unsourced content may be removed at any time. I've removed the other unsourced Fallout 76 role.

I want to know why have you revert it back to classical/jazz when they don't just play these formats anymore? If you look at the schedule of ici musique, they show that they don't just play classical and jazz after the restructuring in the 2000s. Besides, it's just an information box that doesn't really require citations if they know what the is format is about. In-FRED-ible (talk) 04:33, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

@In-FRED-ible: - The addition was unsourced - music genres in particular are important to source due to WP:GENREWARRING concerns, and content in infoboxes is generally sourced elsewhere in the article per MOS:INFOBOXCITE.

D3 Publisher page

Hey again Waxworker, just to ask, but why are you reverting an obviously incomplete page? I’m formatting it to make it easier to read as the previous layout is quite untidy. And how exactly can you source a game layout page?

Is the main reason for the fact I added Namco Bandai in the notes? Luigitehplumber (talk) 05:36, 22 January 2026 (UTC)

@LTPHarry: - Many of the games added (Word Designer: Country Home, Doodle Jump for Kinect, Top Hand Rodeo Tour, etc) were unsourced. Reliable sources confirming D3's involvement in the games are necessary for verification. Waxworker (talk) 05:41, 23 January 2026 (UTC)

Ah, that's exactly what was the reason for the reversions. I normally go by GameFAQ's and do a double check to see if D3 really did publish the game or not (as GameFAQs is user-generated, as you know already, it's not always reliable).

But, for Doodle Jump, here's a trailer from Gamespot's YouTube channel which has D3's logo on it and for the Rodeo game, an Amazon listing . The other title I believe is some mobile game, but its generic name made me lose on research just now, so when I create the page as a standalone one i'll remove that one.

Curious and Unusual Deaths

Hello! First off, I’m so sorry for not including sources for the episode information. Only season 2 of C&UD is on Dailymotion, so I watched through them as I was editing the synopses. I also went to Television Database (TVDB), I don’t know if that’s a reliable source for you, but that’s where all episode information came from as well.

https://www.dailymotion.com/playlist/x7ng3f https://thetvdb.com/series/curious-and-unusual-deaths

please keep in touch I these aren’t reliable sources. ~2026-75861 (talk) 18:48, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-75861: - The Dailymotion link is a copyright issue per WP:COPYLINK, and thetvdb is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source. Straight-forward episode synopses do not require a source as the source is presumed to be the episode itself, but air dates do. Your edits to the article have been WP:REVDELLed due to being a copyright violation and thus I can't re-review the content added, but I recall unsourced airdates being added, and the episode summaries were also excessively long - a few sentences per episode would be more apt. Waxworker (talk) 03:25, 1 February 2026 (UTC)

Okay, that’s an understandable reason to remove the content then. I apologize. TheTVDB actually has incorrect information now that I think about it, one episode is actually labelled incorrectly and I actually can’t find any record of the segments having names. I can’t remember now where I found the air dates, likely IMDB which doesn’t always have reliable info. Thanks! ~2026-75861 (talk) 14:40, 1 February 2026 (UTC)

JellyCar Worlds sources

Hiya! Completely forgot about putting the sources, my mistake! I've had a quick cursory glance at the guidance for reliable sources and I'm unsure whether the pages for the releases on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store would count for release dates. Do you think that'd be fine? I don't have anything else to go off for the exact dates (bar just asking him) since the announcement was made on Dec. 30th when the Xbox release went up, despite the PlayStation release supposedly releasing earlier according to the store page. I doubt I'm going to be able to find a source quickly on the game engine, so I'm fine to drop that. Walaber has mentioned it before but never really in any sort of 'official' capacity. AzureLow (talk) 12:52, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

@AzureLow: - Citing the storefront listings would be fine as a source for release date, though a secondary source (e.g. gaming news like IGN or GameSpot covering the releases) would be better - WP:VG/RS has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games that have previously been discussed by other editors.

My Little Pony: Magic Princess

Hello, Waxworker.

I see you reverted my edits in My Little Pony: Magic Princess. In the "Windows" section, it says the game was available on the Microsoft Store until October 2023, but that's incorrect. It was available until February 2024, according to this Reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/MLPIOS/comments/1akta9d/whats_going_on/. During late January 2024, when opening the game or while playing, a message appeared saying the game would no longer be accessible from the Microsoft Store on February 1, 2024. This isn't fan-made; it's an official announcement from Gameloft. I saw this message while playing the game in late January 2024. Can I correct the date? Rodrikius12 (talk) 19:03, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

@Rodrikius12: - Reddit is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:RSPREDDIT, and personal experience playing the game is WP:OR and unreliable.

@Rodrikius12: - What source do you have verifying this? Waxworker (talk) 20:25, 7 February 2026 (UTC)

Rankin Bass & CAE

Hi WaxWorker,

Thanks for your pointers on my additions, yes I should have found some citations for the Puss In Boots entry. I thought / was hoping someone would just mark it as 'needing citation' like one of the other entries, or do a quick search and add it themselves, however I think I've fixed it now, added 2 citations.

I can understand about the CAE page. Robert W Cooke was my grandfather I am named after him (Robert II), I know he took over as president of CAE in the 60's from Mr Tooley, they were good friends, my Dad (his son) told me many stories about them.

At the moment I don't have documentation or exact dates. It is located in a $100 book: Larry Milberry - The CAE Story (Canav Books, 2015)

I lost my Dad last year, but I can also talk to my aunt and uncle, Grandad's children, they should be able to give me some dates and hopefully some documentation. Could it be left with a 'Citation Needed' label for now, like the Rankin Bass entry for The Mad, Mad, Mad Comedians was since 2 years ago until I just fixed it?

Best wishes!

Springheel Jack edit without source

Hi, regarding Springheel Jack in Stephen King's Strawberry Spring, is it OK to add https://stagingpoint.com/2013/10/12/stephen-king-short-story-project-11-strawberry-spring/ as a source? I didn't know it's necessary to add sources for things like what's in a book (ie. the book is the source but the full text isn't visible online for copyright reasons). Jonathan Strange (talk) 06:37, 15 February 2026 (UTC)

@Jonathan Strange: - This is a WP:BLOG, and doesn't appear to be a reliable source. Per MOS:POPCULT, "Cultural references about the article's subject should not be included merely because they exist. Cultural aspects of the subject should be included only if they are supported by reliable secondary or tertiary sources that discuss the subject's cultural impact in some depth" - the book itself is not a suitable source - a reliable secondary source needs to discuss the appearance of Spring-heeled Jack and the appearance's cultural impact in depth. Also, books may be cited using Template:Cite book, and a source doesn't need to be available online to be cited - see WP:SOURCEACCESS. Waxworker (talk) 03:54, 16 February 2026 (UTC)

I appreciate the explanation.

I looked at the list again, and, for example, the "Spring-Heeled Jack (1989)" entry just links to what appears to be an online store that definitely does not "discuss the subject's cultural impact in some depth" so there seems to be some inconsistent application of the standard.

First to fight substance abuse toolkit

I know this is old, but i remember putting this update in there and it disappearing (edit posted by R4d Scar, i may have forgotten the credentials). You say that the edit had no sources to back it up, but I own the actual first to fight training game that the marine corps used. I have a copy that was swiped in 2005 from an IT center, two infact, and i have played the game myself. The training game is similar to the normal game, just more uptight on things like logging in, and at the end of the game, you have to identify who was using substances and what they are.

Diego Stocco

Hello Waxworker,

Unfortunately, you completely reset my edits to the film composers list without consulting me and without even looking at the entire version history of the film composers list. If you had, you would have noticed that I've been contributing to it for several years and have actually done the lion's share of the work. I've also tried to fill in the gaps in the biographical data again – mostly from the article information itself, but also partly new (because apparently no one else in the English-speaking world is doing it – don't you have any more authors?). Incidentally, a quick Google search would have been enough to see that Diego Stocco is listed on Discogs with a birth year of 1976. Discogs See source: here https://www.discogs.com/de/artist/742648-Diego-Stocco?srsltid=AfmBOoqQmkPiXtCuF3uWspJ_rGqfooJ73DiRUipUf4UWyZWKuyptKL78 The data didn't just "fall from the sky." Incidentally, I'm an expert on film music. You could have easily cross-checked the sources first without immediately removing them all. You have a lot of modular articles, but unfortunately, no one to maintain them. I've been an author on Wikipedia for 14 years now, with over 800 articles in the German version alone. Here on the German Wikipedia, we always work with sources, but also with a great deal of trust in long-standing Wikipedia users. If I add the sources, will you then reverse the blanket reversion? Otherwise, you might as well not bother with the source work later. Because usually more building blocks than sources are included. Which, in my opinion, isn't a particularly progressive form of collaboration. And what if others then refuse to participate at all?

Best regards--Schelmentraum (talk) 01:51, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

@Schelmentraum: - Discogs is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:DISCOGS - dates of birth are a sensitive piece of biographical information and must be sourced per WP:BLP and specifically WP:DOB. Do you have an alternate source for the birthyear? Waxworker (talk) 02:03, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

Interestingly, on our German-language Wikipedia, it's almost exactly the opposite. Institutions with editorial sources like Discogs or IMDb are considered reliable, while social media is seen as borderline because it's generally not linkable—even though the information should be correct in most cases.

On Facebook and Meta, I'm connected with over 70 "film" composers, and their birthdays are displayed there—for example, Nicholas Pike, whose data you don't have at all. He lists his birthdate on Facebook as August 24, 1955. If the data/information were available on Discogs, we could officially use it (because it's an editorially maintained website) —what's the situation with you? Because you can't link to the Facebook source, can you? Regarding your comment about social media:

A verified social media account of an article subject saying about themselves something along the lines of "today is my 50th birthday" may fall under self-published sources for purposes of reporting a full date of birth. It may be usable if there is no reason to doubt it.--Schelmentraum (talk) 02:23, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

@Schelmentraum: - A post on social media by the subject may be fine per WP:ABOUTSELF - WP:MUSIC/SOURCES has a (non-exhausive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to music that may also be helpful. Linking as I'm unsure if the German Wikipedia similarly has Wikiproject-specific source guidance lists - I've previously looked for one for WP:VG and couldn't find one.

Kellen Goff

You reverted my addition to Kellen Goff's filmography, that he played three roles in the web series "MyStreet". Of course, this being a web series, there are very few sources that would be considered valid by the standards of the English Wikipedia. He is credited in the video description of every episode in which he played any role. See, for instance, this link , where it clearly states "Ivan/Levin/Malachi - Kellen Goff". Furthermore, his voice is entirely recognisable in every episode which contains him. Due to the nature of the series, the only way to find any better evidence would be to directly contact Goff personally, where he can corroborate this information. I can assure you that it is beyond any reasonable doubt that Kellen Goff played the three roles that I listed in this show.

Beside the topic of finding a good citation, I don't believe that you should have reverted my edit, even though it was unsourced. I would refer to WP:NOCITE. The material I added could not be described as contentious. Although unsourced, this is clearly not an expression of opinion. You do have some ground for the reversion if you interpreted it as false, although I don't see any reason to assume that it was, but I hope that I have convinced you here that that is not the case. I shall leave it to you to undo the reversion if you think the case which I have argued here was a good one. I do hope that you see it in that way. JamPls (talk) 12:22, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

In addition, he also played another character in the show, Agent R, as seen in the end credits of the finale at 29:50. He is also specifically called out in the video description with a paragraph dedicated to him. JamPls (talk) 16:02, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

May I ask how to cite these credits? Would I just place a link to the video as a reference and be done with it or would I need to append further explanation? By the style of the show they only had in-video credits for the finale and for all other episodes put credits in the video descriptions. Ideally all four of his acting credits would be listed in the article but three of them are only listed in video descriptions, with only one in video form, not that this should be an issue by the principles of Wikipedia.

Advise for old pc games

Hi Waxworker, I am documenting some of old computer games from Slovakia. The sources are usually very scarce. Main portals do not having these games anymore. And old portals do not survive to the present time. Not a lot of people is willing to find sources trough Wayback machine. I found out that you also undid some of my additions.

How to continue? Is it even worthy to continue? Asceno (talk) 20:14, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) If you can't find enough reliable sources to cover this topic, then it likely doesn't meet notability requirements for Wikipedia. If I were you I'd check what sources you do have against the general notability guideline. If they don't pass, this endevour is probably not worth continuing. GrayStorm^{(Talk to me|My Contribs.)} 20:40, 2 March 2026 (UTC)

@Asceno: - For older games (80's and 90's), searching for magazine reviews using Archive.org's text search would be best, as most coverage for games that old will be in print media. Early 2000's is a bit more difficult, as a good amount of coverage will have been online, but is now dead. Digging through Google results with the name of the game in quotes and maybe adding 'review' to the search is the best thing to to in my experience - limiting search results to results from a timeframe around the release of the game also helps, alongside doublechecking Metacritic and Mobygames for listed reviews. Note that while a useful resource, Mobygames itself is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:VG/RS, and not every review Metacritic lists is from a reliable source.

In regards to your edits to Command and Destroy, Wikipedia itself is an unreliable source per WP:CIRCULAR, and while Gamepressure is a reliable source per WP:VG/RS, it doesn't support anything about it being one of the few DS RTS titles or claims about hardware. Additonally, the linked article reads oddly, saying "We" at many points which makes me think this summary is possibly taken from a press release, e.g. "We are making an effort to make each battlefield a unique experience so there are varied backgrounds for each mission from green forest to yellow deserts and snow covered areas ... We wanted to keep both screens as tactile as possible. Being able to touch the battlefield, radar and production components is highly desirable. We’ve achieved this by making the UI and battlefield screens swappable in-game at the touch of a button.". Please also see the essay Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth - even if something is true, reliable sources need to discuss it before it should be on Wikipedia.

TerraTech unsourced

Hi, you added a message on my talk page after I added the engine (Unity) to TerraTech’s infobox - I did this because I looked in the game files within Steam and saw multiple signs that it was objectively a Unity game - I understand I didn’t add a citation but the rest of the data in the infobox also had no direct citations, such as the platforms and release dates. This Steam Community post from a developer of the game shows that they use Unity within it - is that enough for a citation, and how are citations done within infoboxes? I’d also like to note the content I added is (in my opinion) not something that could be interpreted as false or an opinion, so you reverting it instead of adding a {{citation needed}} or {{dubious}} seems like a breach of WP:NOCITE. Dgxo (talk) 08:53, 4 March 2026 (UTC)

@Dgxo: - Unsourced content may be challenged and removed at any time - other content being unsourced on the article is an issue, and not a good example to emulate. The Steam Community post seems fine to cite - Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful, and like the lede of an article, information in infoboxes generally doesn't need a citation if it is verified in the body of the article. Either adding the content directly to the infobox with the citation or adding a sourced brief sentence about the game using Unity under Development in addition to the infobox would be suitable.

Steven Jay Blum

Hello, Waxworker.

I edited List of Steve Blum performances yesterday, just to say that I did it.

Also, on the Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions page, I saw Blum listed as Vulture 2099 and Silvermane 2099 and notice they weren't on his filmography so I thought "Fortune Favors the Bold" (especially as Blum also voices the Noir version of Vulture in the game). Same with the Lego Batman 1 and 2 entries.

I understand where you are coming from, but maybe you should, I dunno, chill out a little bit with the constant reversions and simple one sentence reasons. Why? Because sometimes, people don't take to that and only double down.

Just saying, you know.

Have a good day. ~2026-15826-94 (talk) 19:25, 13 March 2026 (UTC)

Reverts

hey there, you've reverted some of my edits and want a source for it. Do to paging to the next installment it should be clear that NCAA Football 08 is the last game on Xbox. A similar thing is with Nascar 06. Those edits don't need imo. No source. Many other articles doesn't do that either. Should I remove the sentence form NCAA Football 2005 at example because no source is given? DJ Kaito (talk) 22:21, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

@DJ Kaito: - I believe that saying that a game is the "last game in X series on X console" is trivia and should only be noted if reliable sources specifically say this, and I believe that the instance at NCAA Football 2005 should also be removed. The lede is also intended to be a summary of the body of the article, and I would put this under a 'Release' or 'Development' section if sourced. Waxworker (talk) 03:10, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

But I noticed, that the sentence is common all across the gaming articles. I do write articles on the Xbox Wiki for a while and use Wikipedia there for cross-referencing. DJ Kaito (talk) 12:29, 18 March 2026 (UTC)

@DJ Kaito: - If this is widespread, a wider discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games may be apt. I think that noting this kind of thing is unnecessary trivia unless reliable sources specifically point it out, and listing "first game in the series on X", "last game in the series on X", "only game in the series on X" in the article doesn't say much about the game. Waxworker (talk) 03:12, 20 March 2026 (UTC)

Enough

Stop posting on my talk page. We are not discussing this matter, accept the article for what it is and move on already. None of the other actor/actress articles have references for their filmography’s, EVERYTHING is unreliable to you and it’s absolutely pathetic from you. Stop stalking users and stop deleting their edits after they put 100 hours of work into them. Move on! ~2026-17242-44 (talk) 18:48, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

DUDE, PISS OFF!!!!!! ~2026-17242-44 (talk) 18:53, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-17242-44: - Reliable sources are necessary for verification, and some of the roles that you've added unsourced are not listed in the credits of the games. Communication is required, and repeatedly removing the section from the talk page (see WP:TPO) instead of addressing concerns is inappropriate. I have given you a final warning - further inappropriate removal of others' article talk page discussions may result in a block. Waxworker (talk) 18:54, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

Then freaking fix it yourself instead of DELETING THE WHOLE FREAKING THING! Everything is unreliable to you. Move on! ~2026-17756-82 (talk) 18:58, 21 March 2026 (UTC)

Why are you change that

The Hulu app on Nintendo switch was shutdown last month Pizza35 (talk) 20:24, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

@Pizza35: - The addition was unsourced - Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources. Waxworker (talk) 16:32, 29 March 2026 (UTC)

Why do you mean?

There is nothing wrong, plot details is not that big of the deal, On Working for Peanuts. I would appreicate if you put my edits back. ~2026-81618-8 (talk) 22:00, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-81618-8: - The plot detail added appears unnecessary - the previous revision is more succinct and seems better summarized, with less direct quotes. The content added also reads oddly in places, e.g. "Two enemies and short one, then both notices" and "slaps Chip with the fish prompting Chip with annoyed "Sorehead"" Waxworker (talk) 02:52, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

This was in the cartoon, it is quote ~2026-81618-8 (talk) 03:25, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

@Waxworker, what is one condition that I can put my edits back with changes? ~2026-81618-8 (talk) 02:32, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-81618-8: - Plot sections are generally written as a summary in one's own words, not including quotes unless nescessary to understand the subject. Per MOS:FILMPLOT, "The plot summary is an overview of the main events, so avoid minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes, and technical detail". "Dolores complains to Donald" is far more to the point than "Dolores run to Donald in pain, while he is cleaning a hippo's mouth, Dolores blew her trunk into him. Donald asked "What's the matter, Dolores?", Dolores pointed to her rear and explains to Donald the two suspects." Straight-forward plot sections do not need to be sourced as the source is the subject of the article itself, but quotes do need to be sourced per MOS:PLOTSOURCE, though I don't think the quoted content should be included regardless. Waxworker (talk) 04:19, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

So I can add "Dolores complains to Donald, who explained what happened, but both notice Chip and Dale in the act of theft"

I can keep where Donald chase Chip and Dale after being laughed at the audience as well as where Chip shrug to camera unsure whenever to question or not ~2026-81618-8 (talk) 22:08, 19 April 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-81618-8: - These details are unnecessary to note in a short summary of the plot. Waxworker (talk) 00:29, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

The truth about user RedRobocon06

I replyed to user RedRobocon06 relating to DTVA had no involvement in both The Proud Family and Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja, as those shows were actually made by outside studios and gave him a serious to think about what he had done long ago including the time he added The Proud Family on the Disney Television Animation article which be believed it was made at DTVA when to figure out the truth DTVA didn't produced and if he does this again, you or somebody in Wikipedia will block RedRobocon06 for his actions ~2026-20703-11 (talk) 00:46, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-20703-11: - I am not an admin and cannot block anyone. I don't believe I've edited any of the linked articles and am unfamiliar with the background of this matter - if you believe there are issues with their recent edits (not edits "done long ago") aside from a content dispute, and talk page discussions haven't helped, making an WP:ANI report may be an option.

Rayman Mini

Hey there. I'm not a wikipedia expert, so I don't know if this a correct way of contacting you. I on;y ask for a constructive conversation.

I was very curious to ask what is your deal with the Rayman Mini page. You must know by now that this game is not available anywhere anymore. But still everytime a user tries to edit the page and note it as delisted by the developers you seem to desperately try to prevent them for not adding a persuasive enough source. Why all this? Sfoklus (talk) 09:39, 5 April 2026 (UTC)

@Sfoklus: - Even if something is true, reliable sources need to discuss it for it to be included on the article. I've previously raised the issue of delisted games with no source for delisting at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games, and other editors agreed that sourcing is necessary for claims of delisting. The TA ~2026-93361-4 repeatedly added the claim sourced to TVTropes (an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:RSPTVTROPES), and didn't respond in edit summaries or to my concerns on their talk page regarding the unreliable source. WP:VG/RS has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games that have previously been discussed by other editors that may be helpful to consult. Waxworker (talk) 04:19, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

I do get that and it's good that you care about the strictness of sources but you see what the problem is. The fact that the game's delisting is not mentioned in the article almost suggests that it should still be available somewhere to be played (and that's false). The average reader will care more about its availability than an official statement from Ubisoft about its termination in the bottom of the article. Even reading "Rayman Mini IS a platform video game" instead of "was" makes no sense. Don't you agree that something should be done about it? Sfoklus (talk) 09:27, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

@Sfoklus: - I disagree - if no reliable sources discuss a claim, then the claim shouldn't be made on the article. Even if there are no reliable sources for this now, it's possible that gaming news will cover it in the future, like in a retrospective on Rayman mobile games or something.

Confusion

Why did u undo my edit on Gummibar Discography? I added some singles with some notes. You can check iTunes or Spotify to see those singles. StefanoBoipico (talk) 18:37, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

@StefanoBoipico: - The addition was unsourced - Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources, and WP:MUSIC/SOURCES has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to music that have previously been discussed by other editors that may be helpful to consult. Per WP:ALBUM/AVOID, "Online retailers such as iTunes and Amazon should also be avoided" - Spotify may be fine, but a reliable secondary source would be better. Waxworker (talk) 20:19, 13 April 2026 (UTC)

Can Qobuz be fine? StefanoBoipico (talk) 01:10, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

@StefanoBoipico: - As Qobuz is a music retailer similar to iTunes, I believe it should similarly not be used as a source. Waxworker (talk) 00:39, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

BTDubs, when u saw that edit, they also didn't add sources. I'm talking about the edit made before I did. StefanoBoipico (talk) 18:30, 16 April 2026 (UTC)

Hey hi... how do you cite a television show? I mean, the television show IS the source to be cited as proof, 'cos if you watch the episode of Doctor Who you see the game cabinet. ~2026-13300-77 (talk) 05:08, 21 April 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-13300-77: - Episodes of a series may be cited using Template:Cite episode, but per MOS:POPCULT, "Cultural references about the article's subject should not be included merely because they exist. Cultural aspects of the subject should be included only if they are supported by reliable secondary or tertiary sources that discuss the subject's cultural impact in some depth. The mere appearance of the subject in a film, song, video game, television show, or the like is insufficient" - reliable secondary sourcing showing that the game's appearance in the episode is notable and discussing its cultural impact is necessary. Waxworker (talk) 15:26, 21 April 2026 (UTC)

Oh, I see. Not to worry. What I attempted to add was, indeed, obviously, a cultural reference included merely because it exists. Fair enough! ~2026-13300-77 (talk) 00:53, 23 April 2026 (UTC)

KPUR 1440 AM

Hey, I saw you reverted my previous revision due to it being "unsourced". You can listen to the live stream for KPUR-FM and hear KPUR AM be mentioned in the station identification. There's also footage of this same station identification posted to YT via SDR recording. I can reply with the YT link if you so desire, but please do not revert my edit as the information contained within it is verifiably correct. Thanks! Somebody1234567890 (talk) 19:42, 21 April 2026 (UTC)

@Somebody1234567890: - Youtube is a generally unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:RSPYT unless the channel that uploaded the video is that of a reliable source, e.g. something like a news source such as the BBC or CNN, or an official channel of the station. Even if the station is currently simulcasting KPUR-FM, the date it began should be sourced and cannot be verified by listening to it now. "It is not currently known whether or not this format is temporary" is also speculative - see WP:SPECULATION. Waxworker (talk) 00:29, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

I personally know when it started simulcasting KPUR-FM but have no "verifiable sources" other than my own eyes and ears. However, the format itself is correct. I respectfully disagree with your assessment of my edit. Somebody1234567890 (talk) 04:50, 22 April 2026 (UTC)

Edits To Triggerfish Studio Wikipage

Hey I was just reaching about my changes to the Triggerfish Studio page. First, I want to start by saying I'm grateful that you looked over my changes but, I believe that instead of just reverting my changes and not reaching out was not the best way of going about the changes. I'm new to making edits and some advice on how my changes weren't right would have helped out greatly so I'm ask that you please reach out to inform me on my changes. I know they weren't perfect and want to be able to improve. I will continue to make some edits to the page and feedback would be nice.

Thanks AmareJ (talk) 18:49, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

@AmareJ: - The changes to urls made weren't consistent with the rest of the references - the 'westerncape.gov.za' ref was replaced with an article from 'dailymaverick.co.za', with the reference still having the title and archive url of the previous site, and the 'gautengfilm.org.za' ref was replaced with a primary source from triggerfish.com, with the same issues with title and archive url. I see that both of these links now 404, but the archive links work, and I don't see any issues with the sources cited. Did you replace them as the urls aren't live anymore? Waxworker (talk) 14:17, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Yes, the links were active and not working so I original tried to replace them but that was before I tried seeing if the source worked in the archive. The archived linked worked and I replaced the links I found with the archived links. AmareJ (talk) 02:55, 2 May 2026 (UTC)

Advertising

Is it true that we are not allowed to add fan animations for other songs. For example, there was this old Dame Tu Cosita animation from 2001 before its 2018 remaster. It was very short. There's also this one from Die Toten Hosen's Still, still, still, in which it featured a drunk guy on presents. That one's traumatizing me and my mind makes me wanna add it. I can't be strong enough. StefanoBoipico (talk) 17:55, 5 May 2026 (UTC)

@StefanoBoipico: - If a fan animation is notable and has been discussed by reliable independent sources (e.g. something like Cartoon Brew, Animation Magazine, or Animation World Network, also see WP:MUSIC/SOURCES for music-centric sources) a brief mention may be appropriate, but most fan animations are not going to be notable. Primary sourcing like citing the video itself doesn't show that the video is notable, and video hosting sites such as Youtube are WP:USERGENERATED and unreliable - see WP:RSPYT.

I believe the content added about the availability of the website is WP:SYNTH as claims like "The last moment a version of that original website went down was after mid-2021" aren't explicitly stated by the website - the last time an address was archived isn't necessarily the last it was online, and I also think noting this is trivia if reliable secondary sources haven't discussed when the website went down.

Leberknodel

yo unc search it up hitler actually liked it. cant u just add the source lol. or ig put like one of his favorite dishes not necerailly his fav one. "According to Ilse Hess (wife of Rudolf Hess), in 1937, Hitler ceased eating meat except for Leberknödel (liver dumplings)" from article adolf hitler and vegetarianism. "Hitler continued to eat a favourite dish, Leberklösse (liver dumplings)." seems like important enough info to mention in article about a boring dish. ~2026-28267-00 (talk) 21:48, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-28267-00: - The addition was unsourced - the onus is on the editor adding content to demonstrate verifibility. In general I would say that any unsourced claims added about Hitler are very likely to be challenged - @Fixingthelies2025: reverted the addition and I would have had they not done so first - I gave ~2026-27477-47 a warning as I noticed Fixingthelies2025 hadn't. I see that Adolf Hitler and vegetarianism mentions this, the books cited there may be suitable sources for re-adding it to Leberknödel. Waxworker (talk) 02:07, 11 May 2026 (UTC)

Most playthroughs on video sharing sites such as Youtube are unreliable as they are WP:USERGENERATED per WP:RSPYT - the channel that uploaded the video would need to be that of a reliable source, e.g. IGN or GameSpot.

@~2026-26572-27: - The additions were unsourced - wikilinks to other articles are not in themselves a source per WP:USERGENERATED. Waxworker (talk) 02:30, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

Yeah, like 99% of the shows on that list. If that's your argument then you might as well delete the whole list. Plus, you've reverted all of my edits including the ones that didn't even had anything to do with the "unsourced additions" you're talking about and that's not acceptable.~2026-26572-27 (talk) 02:46, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-26572-27: - I do not believe that other content being unsourced on the article is a reason to add more. Waxworker (talk) 02:53, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

The logic would be to simply delete the whole table. You can't arbitrarily apply a rule for certain shows and ignore it for others. And unless the shows happen to be sourced with user-generated websites in their respective articles, I don't think WP:USERGENERATED can really be invoked here when their airings on CBS can easily be verified with the reliable sources on their Wikipedia articles. ~2026-26572-27 (talk) 03:35, 12 May 2026 (UTC)

Why do this?

I'm already nervous because there's a discussion about an incident about my past actions, and I may get blocked indefinitely. What did I do wrong? I wasn't meaning any "combative behavior" or something like that. The problem is that something I'm trying to keep to date continues to get reverted because the company isn't providing a reliabale source that I can use; it's just consistently doing something without warning. I want to stay on Wikipedia for a little longer. Jonghyunchung (talk) 02:44, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

But just in case I do get blocked indefinitely, I wrote a short closing message on my user page to let you know that I'm going to miss Wikipedia badly, and that even without me around, it'll still continue improving articles in the future. Jonghyunchung (talk) 03:28, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

@Jonghyunchung: - Echoing what NinjaRobotPirate and Athanelar have already said in the ANI thread, if you acknowledge the issues with your conduct that editors have raised, are more civil in disputes in the future, and don't continue to add unsourced content, you're not going to be blocked. In addition, an indefinite block seems unlikely to me considering your empty block log - straight to indef is usually for more severe issues. Waxworker (talk) 07:26, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

April 2026 edit

"Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Netmarble, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Waxworker"

I see from elsewhere on this page that this isn't the first time you've done this sort of thing. As the other user argued, though, why didn't you remove most of the listings from the list in question, seeing as almost none of it was sourced? Does this count as a reliable source? If it does, could you put the info back and attach it? https://store.epicgames.com/p/mongil-star-dive-e6f95e ~2026-23586-20 (talk) 10:08, 13 May 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-23586-20: - The onus is on the editor adding content to demonstrate verifibility per WP:BURDEN - I believe that removing large swathes of pre-existing unsourced content (that may have been there and unchallenged for an extended period of time) is a different matter than dealing with newly added unsourced content. Storefront listings aren't a great source, but I think would be fine in this instance. Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources that may be helpful.

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane: - The date change of "between December 31, 2005 to January 1, 2006" is unsourced, as well as the info about sitcoms by Fox, which I believe also isn't relevant to include. Waxworker (talk) 04:05, 31 May 2026 (UTC)

@AlbertSamosa: - As I noted in the edit summary of my revert and warning, the cited Rock, Paper, Shotgun reference does not verify the content added under gameplay. Fandom wikis are also an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:FANDOM - WP:VG/RS hs a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to video games that may be helpful to consult. Waxworker (talk) 14:14, 5 June 2026 (UTC)

I did not cite Rock Paper Shotgun? Also, how are fandom wikis unreliable? Besides that, other than images, there is nothing to cite. AlbertSamosa (talk) 09:46, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

If I cannot link fandom, then what is there to cite to? AlbertSamosa (talk) 09:46, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

By the way, that Fandom wiki IS the official wiki. AlbertSamosa (talk) 09:49, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

@AlbertSamosa: - Wikis are an unreliable source because they are user-edited, regardless of whether is it an 'official' wiki or not, as anyone can write anything on it regardless of veracity. The "Noosphere and Life" content added under the gameplay section has the existing Rock Paper Shotgun citation at the end of the sentence, indicating that it should verify the content added, but it does not. Waxworker (talk) 14:19, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

Yes, but that wiki is officiated by Maxim Karpenko himself. Also, I'm not sure if there is any other thing on the internet to confirm these kinds of things. Unless I could upload my own image..? AlbertSamosa (talk) 10:17, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

@AlbertSamosa: - Being official doesn't make it reliable, because anyone can edit it. Screenshots you've made are similarly WP:USERGENERATED and unreliable, and if there are no reliable sources that can verify the content added, it shouldn't be on the article. The article does need a screenshot, but for illustrative purposes - the image cannot be a source, but a visual representation of what the game looks like. An article generally has one screenshot illustrating gameplay - Wikipedia:File upload wizard may be used to upload an image. Bear in mind that the image cannot be larger than 100,000 total pixels, and will be made smaller automatically by a bot if it is too large. Waxworker (talk) 14:11, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

As I said, my source is my copy of the actual book. Tesseract12 (talk) 14:59, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

@Tesseract12: - Citing the book itself would be fine - Template:Cite book has guidance regarding citing books, and by superscript digit I assume you mean the numbers after a citation number indicating relevant page numbers? WP:CITEPAGE has guidance for this, but you can also enter the relevant pages in the page parameter in the cite book template. Help:Referencing for beginners also has guidance on citing sources in general. Waxworker (talk) 15:05, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

I meant the superscript digit referencing a footnote. Tesseract12 (talk) 15:43, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

And are you sure that IMDb is an unreliable source when it comes to members of a cast?

Now what is the point of worrying so much about other people's contributions here?

Some people call it Wikicopping.

As long as the information that somebody posted is correct, why not just leave it alone? Tesseract12 (talk) 15:47, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

@Tesseract12: - IMDB is an unreliable source in general, including cast listings, the only exception being writing credits directly supplied by Writers Guild of America that are marked as such. A reliable source is necessary to verify the accuracy of content added - verifiability is one of Wikipedia's pillars and one I strongly believe in. There is no source verifying it to be correct, and I do not think that the accuracy of the content added is a justification to add unsourced content. The removed content can always be restored with a reliable source. Waxworker (talk) 14:00, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

I can't figure it out. It is obvious that the tidbit of information that I posted about Heyman is correct. As long as this matter is important to you, then why don't you please do it?

@Tesseract12: - Here is a template to use that I've filled in with what I can, with placeholder text in areas that you'd need to fill in, as I do not know what edition of the book you are citing, or what page. Normally this would render as a citation - I've used nowiki tags to prevent that from happening so you can copy it complete with formatting.

<ref>{{cite book |author=Robert Carl Cohen|year=PLACEHOLDER TEXT - REPLACE WITH YEAR OF EDITION CITED |title=The Color of Man |publisher=PLACEHOLDER TEXT - REPLACE WITH PUBLISHER |isbn=PLACEHOLDER TEXT - REPLACE WITH ISBN |page=PLACEHOLDER TEXT - REPLACE WITH PAGE NUMBER THAT VERIFIES CLAIM|edition=PLACEHOLDER TEXT - REPLACE WITH EDITION CITED}}</ref>

Waxworker (talk) 20:14, 11 June 2026 (UTC)

As for the page number, it is not one page. Heyman provided all the photographs for the entire book.

The year of the book is 1968.

The ISBN for the original hardcover edition is 9780394810393.

The publisher is Random House.

I still cannot figure out how to use that template. Tesseract12 (talk) 01:17, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

@Tesseract12: - Specifically what errors/issues appear when you add the template? Usually credits such as illustrator/author are near the beginning of the book alongside ISBN/copyright information - is he not listed there? If more than one page is cited, the parameter is changed from '|page=' to '|pages='. Waxworker (talk) 03:20, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

I was not able to figure out how to add the template altogether.

And all the photos in the book are by Heyman.

As long as this issue is important to you, then couldn't you please add it?

I stated all the necessary information. Tesseract12 (talk) 13:43, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

@Tesseract12: - You can add the template by copying the template and pasting it into the article in the relevant location where the source is needed, then when you preview the page it should be rendered as a citation. Page numbers are still needed, and I believe helping you figure out how to use it is best as you'll need to know how to do this for future reference. Waxworker (talk) 14:27, 14 June 2026 (UTC)

Removing Edits to Gondi Page

Somebody else wrote that gondi is also called ghondi, but their sources aren't reliable themselves. Gondi is written with a gaf, as noted in the article itself, a letter which is never ever represented with a gh. I don't believe I need to link an article to change incorrect information that somebody else put, do I? Like, somebody wrote an article with wrong information. I have to find an article that points out that previous articles have wrong information?

Somebody else wrote "similar to their Ashkenazi Jewish counterpart matzo balls", and they had no source at all for this statement (which is a false statement, these dishes are not the same and are not used in the same context, just kind of look similar). I simply changed this to say that they are unrelated to matzo balls, but I'd gladly just remove the sentence if you think that's more appropriate.

Somebody else wrote that gondi is a popular dish among the Mountain Jewish population, and gave two citations. The first citation does not mention Mountain Jews in the article, and the second citation links to an article that no longer exists. Again, I would happily remove the incorrect sentence, but I'm not sure what source I should be linking here--"I asked my local Mountain Jewish mother and culinary expert and she said 'of course we don't eat gondi, that's a misattribution'"?

Somebody else wrote "It's also an alternative to matzo balls for Passover", but this is misquoting the article, and I changed it to reflect that. For my addition that most Persian Jews traditionally don't eat chickpeas on Passover, I can provide a link.

The Wikipedia article as it exists is full of false information, and I'm just trying to fix that. Please reply so I know how to proceed. Sheepish Lord of Chaos (talk) 16:10, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

@Sheepish Lord of Chaos: - I agree that there are issues with the existing content, but the issue is that the content you added also isn't verified by the sources the claims are cited to. Articles go by what sources say - if a claim isn't verified by the source it's cited to, the claim can be challenged and removed. If you have alternative sources for the content you added, Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources - something like input from your mother cannot be cited.

The articles for the alternate spellings of Gondi (ghondi/gundi) don't really discuss the spelling discrepancy in any kind of depth (and do not include ghondi, only gundi) so I think removing these alternate spellings from the lede would be fine, but the sources do not identify these spellings as being 'incorrect' as was added. Removing the unsourced content about matzo balls I agree would be apt, alongside the sentence about it being popular with Mountain Jewish people - if the cited sources cannot verify this it should be removed, though the accessible Jewish Journal source doesn't mention kufta bozbash. The article cited for having them during Passover does not verify the claim that "most Persian Jews traditionally refrain from eating gondi and chickpea products on Passover", but does describe it as a "exotic alternative to matza balls" - given that the cited source is describing this as more of a niche thing I think removing the claim about Passover and keeping the reference for the etymology of the word would be good.

@DeclanClarke: - Fandom wikis and forums are an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source - Fandom wikis in particular per WP:FANDOM - and the existing cited sources at the end of the sentence didn't discuss the added content. If you have a reliable source that can verify this, Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources, and WP:ANIMESOURCES has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to anime and manga that have previously been discussed by other editors that may be helpful to consult.

June 2026

Good morning, this is your fourth strikes, violating the rules and warning to you due to reverting edits of IP user/account as important added the list of all years of Philippine television archives (from 1953 to 2026).

You no longer to editing Philippine television due to the violations without permission will be report you after strikes and warning. But IP user/account will continue the editing of Philippine television articles added the permanent important to the articles also did not violate the IP user/account of Wikipedia policy.

Next time you are still stubborn in reverting edits to IP users/accounts without any reason, next time it will be possible to turn it into vandalism, WP:ANI until you are completely blocked indefinitely. Thank you very much. ~2026-36203-28 (talk) 05:39, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

@~2026-36203-28: - Removing unsourced content is not vandalism - see WP:NOTVAND - Help:Referencing for beginners has guidance regarding citing sources, and Wikipedia:Tambayan Philippines/Sources has a (non-exhaustive) list of reliable/unreliable sources related to the Philippines that have previously been discussed by other editors that may be helpful to consult. Content added may be restored with reliable sources that verify the content added. Waxworker (talk) 15:54, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

Edit request

Hi Waxworker! I saw you made a previous edit to the Super Monsters Ate My Condo page. Our studio page, PikPok, is quite outdated and I wondered if you might be willing to give it a clean up? It would be much appreciated. Thank you! Geo2kar (talk) 09:57, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

@Geo2kar: - I've just run IAbot on it and italicized a few titles, but this is not something I'm particularly interested in editing much. Regarding your connection to the studio, I recommend you read WP:COI which has guidance regarding editing with a conflict of interest. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games may be a better venue to ask for editors' assistance with the article. Waxworker (talk) 18:44, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for the advice Geo2kar (talk) 20:13, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

Dude, you didn't need to revert my edit on Steve Fonti, because you do realize that the categories I've added were necessary as he did work at such studios as Nickelodeon Animation Studio. And furthermore, some of the stuff didn't needed to be linked. Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane (talk) 18:40, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane: - The TV shows that he worked on that you added were unsourced, and while a wikilink itself isn't a source, several of the target articles (The Angry Beavers, The Powerpuff Girls, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy) also don't discuss his involvement. Do you have sources verifying these credits? In regards to the categories, them being WP:NONDEFINING seems like a concern - I don't think that working on one or two shows from a company means that someone should be in 'Category:X company people' - I think sources would need to discuss a sustained relationship to the company. Waxworker (talk) 18:53, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

While that might be the case, you didn't need to just revert. You could've just fix the grammar, and have gotten rid of all these unnecessary links that shouldn't even be there, like I've done. Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane (talk) 21:35, 26 June 2026 (UTC)

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane: - You haven't addressed the WP:NONDEFINING categories, and again, do you have any reliable sources that verify the credits you added? I see that @JDDJS: has also reverted some of your category additions. Waxworker (talk) 11:54, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane I strongly agree with Waxworker. Just because someone has worked for a company once in their life does not automatically mean that they should be categorized by that company. It defeats the purpose of the categories. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 14:50, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

That's not the point I'm making. The point is the grammar that I'm fixing and the unnecessary links. For example, these links that were used in the article for Steve Fonti. You know, like when I tried to fix the errors, stuff seen here. If you pay attention, there are a lot of unnecessary links and grammatical errors. Do you get what I'm saying? Like nevermind the credits or source links or whatever, I'm trying to fix the grammar and unnecessary links. Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane (talk) 17:54, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane: - Please answer the question - do you have sources that verify the credits you're adding? The removal of slight overlinking and the wording changes you've made are minor compared to the unsourced content that you've repeatedly restored and the categories that both me and JDDJS agree are WP:NONDEFINING. Unsourced content that has been challenged and removed should not be restored without sourcing, and you've repeatedly not answered my question about sourcing and restored the content. Waxworker (talk) 18:14, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

There's not a thing unsourced. You're just bringing this shit upon yourself. You need to pay attention to the articles that you keep reverting. Like for example, for the Guy Moon one, I did in fact provided the source for the credits on The Ren & Stimpy Show, but then you somehow reverted it, assuming there was no source provided, even THOUGH I already provided the source in question. Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane (talk) 18:20, 27 June 2026 (UTC)

@Dr. Gregory House's Missing Cane: As I said, the credits for The Angry Beavers, The Powerpuff Girls, The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy that you added are unsourced. I see that you've removed Angry Beavers, but the Powerpuff Girls and The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy are still unsourced and present on the article. Do you have sources that can verify him working on these shows? On Guy Moon, you restored unsourced roles that were commented out (Grim & Evil, Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide, HobbyKids Adventures) without providing sources.
