Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Futurama: Into the Wild Green Yonder, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 17:51, 5 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please review WP:RS. Images are not reliable sources. DonIago (talk) 14:50, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing about images is mentioned in WP:RS. And I fail to see how a screenshot from the movie isn't reliable; indeed, mine wasn't the only one on that page.
In any case, do you have any suggestions as to how I could properly add my information? Argonz318 (talk) 17:05, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I grant that WP:PUBLISHED (a subsection of WP:RS) probably comes closest to my point but doesn't explicitly rule out images...however, for the information you're adding, an image is insufficient because you're claiming that the image is a reference to a prior episode of the show; what you need is a statement from someone associated with the show in which they make that claim (a third-party source pointing out the reference may also be sufficient). Otherwise you're leaving it to readers/editors to make the assumption that it's a reference, which constitutes original research.
Hope this helps! It may be the case that the reference is so trivial that nobody's ever commented on it, in which case we should probably omit it for triviality in any case. DonIago (talk) 16:39, 6 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Orphaned non-free image File:Futurama Martian Cavern.png

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Futurama Martian Cavern.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:32, 7 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
