Edit summary

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! KyleJoan^talk 03:53, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello colleague

I noticed by doing a diff over the course of your extensive, and generally helpful of the BLP actor article edits at Taylor Russell, that the entire first paragraph is unsourced. It might be that you untended later appearing citations to cover this paragraph, but not having the relevant citations within the paragraph (near to the sentences covered) is confusing to readers (who understand that the reliability of the content is based on its being sourced from references), and, as well, makes it difficult for any incoming editors to verify new content. For these reasons, content that is not "sky is blue" common knowledge that is unsourced violates WP:VERIFY, and will be considered suspect until it is sourced.

So, if you can return there and tell us, where did that paragraph (with all its stated facts) come from, it would be a help in moving the artcle toward encyclopedic, and it would allow removal of unsightly template messages (tags) about this issue.

Note, also, be very careful to hone closely to the source text. Earlier editing citing TheGrio.com stated the actor was born in Vancouver, but neither her full name, or date of birth, or place of birth actually appear in that article. (It is a great source, just not for those facts.) As well, Russell is not even mentioned in a book that was cited earlier (that is mostly in fact about scholarly aspects of stage productions, e.g., Shakespeare). So we should only place citations that actually cover the content, and then edit the content to match the citations. Cheers. (a former teacher, unfortunately). 2601:246:C700:558:2882:A59A:8DC5:CD1D (talk) 07:13, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks
