Ethnicelebs.com as a source[edit]

Hi Edgein86 . I'm in the process of removing ethnicelebs.com as a source from Wikipedia, because it's not reliable (See User_talk:XLinkBot/RevertList#EthniCelebs.com). I noticed that you've added it, and wanted to make sure you understood why it's being removed. If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 22:47, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of citation[edit]

Why did you remove a legitimate (and necessary) citation in this edit? Sundayclose (talk) 04:11, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, I didn’t realise that confirmation of birthdates were necessary. The majority of Wiki pages I’ve seen for actors / celebs don’t have refs for this. Edgein86 (talk) 01:14, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. For future reference, everything on Wikipedia is subject to removal if it doesn't have a reliable source. It's not a good idea to use the standard that if something is unsourced in other articles, it doesn't require a source in the article you are editing. Sundayclose (talk) 01:16, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You’re absolutely right - thanks for clarifying for me. Edgein86 (talk) 01:18, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Introduction to contentious topics[edit]

You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Please have a look also at the information at this page, which appears every time you edit J. K. Rowling. As a BLP, Rowling is also a contentious topic subject to restrictions in that area. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:45, 3 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
