Kelly Monaco

Thanks for your work on the Kelly Monaco article but you really need to use better sources for your info. For instance, realitytvworld.com specifically says that they use Wikipedia as a source. That's basically circular reasoning. "We say this is true because this other site says we say it's true". Sites like theirs often use older unsourced versions of our articles and then people think that their info is reliable. And the fan site, littlemissmonaco, shouldn't be used as a source either, per WP:FANSITE. Please take these comments as constructive criticism for that's how they're intended.

And I see that while I was typing all that, that you tried to use an external image for the article. Images can't be linked from external sources. They have to be uploaded to Wikipedia first. Dismas|^(talk) 23:55, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
