How you can help

Hello! I've seen some of your edits on film-related articles, and I really appreciate the contributions you're making to Wikipedia. I'm glad you're helping the project! You may wish to consider creating an account. It's quick, free, and anonymous (you don't have to give away any real-world information about yourself).

When you're logged in, you can do many things that unregistered users cannot, such as creating new pages, uploading media content, moving pages and keeping track of changes to articles you edit frequently. It helps the community, too — Wikipedians will be more likely to remember who you are when you have an account name! If you are interested in film, Wikipedia has a WikiProject called WikiProject Film where editors collaborate on articles.

If you want more information on the benefits of creating an account, click here. And once you've registered, please drop me a message and say hi! If you would like to join WikiProject Film, simply add your new name to the list of participants. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask at the project talk page. Don't forget to sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~). Erik (talk | contribs)

Hello, 76.10.122.252. Regarding this edit by you, the film does not have to go by the title. Alternate names that are published in reliable sources can go in the lead, especially if those names redirect to the article. Transformers 2 redirects to Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. If you look around Wikipedia regarding alternate names, we do this for many topics, not just film articles. This is why I reverted you on this particular matter.

Hey great edit at 127 Hours. It's more informative and looks a lot nicer that way.—Biosketch (talk) 02:30, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

July 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, at least one of your recent edits, such as the one you made to The Lord of the Rings (1978 film) with this edit, has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. For constructive edits, always provide an informative edit summary so that editors have a brief description of your intentions. If you want to try out how editing Wikipedia works, please edit the sandbox page and not encyclopedia articles. If you have questions about editing Wikipedia, you might want to take a look at this tutorial. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

September 2011[edit]

Welcome and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test on the page American Movie worked, and it has been reverted or removed. However, if you would like to experiment further, please use the sandbox instead. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

October 2011[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed content from Army of Darkness. When removing content, please specify a reason in the edit summary and discuss edits that are likely to be controversial on the article's talk page. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the content has been restored, as you can see from the page history. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you.

If this is a shared IP address, and you didn't make the edit, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

September 2012[edit]

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (film), without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

February 2013[edit]

Hi. Please do not add unsourced personal observations or speculation on pop cultural references to articles, as you did with this edit to Bass to Mouth, as this violates Wikipedia's policies of Verifiability and No Original Research. Wikipedia requires that all material added to articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable sources explicitly cited in the text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here. With regard to material about the content of fiction that is evaluative, analytical or interpretive, the source must be a secondary source, and it must explicitly mention the information in relation to the work in question. Relying instead on personal observation or interpretation is original research, and using sources to form original conclusions not explicitly in those sources is synthesis, which is a form of original research.

Also, punctuation goes before citations, and not after them, as indicated by WP:PAIC.

If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 16:08, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
