Citations and sources are needed
[edit]Please be sure that all additions to the Russian roulette in popular culture article are verifiable. Any new items added to the article should have inline citations for each claim made.
I have removed a good part of the unsourced material that had been previously tagged {{citation needed}} for at least a couple of months with no sources added. If you have a source, please feel free to add the material back in, along with the citation. N2e (talk) 04:56, 2 December 2010 (UTC)
- If they've named the work it appears in, and the work even has a Wikipedia page, what's the point of citing it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.95.218.254 (talk) 18:51, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
- Well the main point is verifiability of the specific claim this article is making about Russian roulette. Wikipedia policy calls for any substantive claim in all articles to be verifiably sourced, per WP:V, a core wiki-policy. Wikipedia itself is not considered an adequate source: see the section Wikipedia and sources that mirror or use it in the WP:V policy. (shortcut is WP:CIRCULAR) The lone exception, where sources are not required, is disambiguation pages. We need not cite every detail about any particular movie or other popular culture item, but if a claim is made that Russian roulette is in some particular pieces of pop culture (an assertion), then a citation should be provided that will source that claim.

Verifiability
[edit]Please do not add unsourced claims about Russian Roulette in any particular popular culture without a verifiable, reliable secondary source citation for the claims. If there is some special case, get a consensus on this Talk page first. Otherwise, unsourced material will be removed. Cheers. N2e (talk) 01:37, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
- The complete article is rather pointless, it did not mention Rihanna's song (artist and song already covered by en:w: articles) or the existing disambiguation page. Maybe merge it into Russian roulette. –82.113.99.162 (talk) 12:22, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
- Well, on Wikipedia, anyone can edit. So if you have a source, and can write a reasonable sentence of prose that is supported by the cited source, feel free to add it into the article. Cheers. N2e (talk) 21:36, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
