Revision as of 05:44, 3 February 2014
Welcome!
Hello, Jdogno5, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}}
before the question. Again, welcome! --Anna Lincoln (talk) 09:10, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Megatron (Transformers), but we cannot accept original research. Original research 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) 01:54, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Eddie Brock
Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to Eddie Brock, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the edit had to be reverted, because Wikipedia cannot accept unsourced material or original research. This includes material lacking cited sources, or obtained through personal knowledge or unpublished synthesis of previously published material. 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. If you 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) 03:26, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- The edit summary is not a place to discuss content, but is used for summarizing the content of the edits. If you have questions concerning the reversions, please use the relevant talk pages to discuss, instead of reverting. Thank you. - SudoGhost 09:54, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
- Agreed. You do not violate Wikipedia's policies on Original Research, Synthesis or Verfiability "to ask a question". If you want to ask a question, then you simply ask it. You can do this on article talk pages, or on the personal talk pages of individual editors you wish to communicate with, much as others have done right here.
- As for which sources are appropriate, they are those that are generally considered to be credentialed, or have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. For comics, examples would be sources such as Wizard magazine, Comics Buyer’s Guide, The Comics Journal, Newsarama, Comic Book Resources, books by analysts like Danny Fingeroth, interviews on DVDs of movies adapted from comics, as well as any mainstream press stories in publications like Time magazine, The New York Times, Publishers Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, TV Guide, etc. For a somewhat more in-depth explanation, my explanation to another editor here might be useful, as would Wikipedia:Identifying Reliable Sources.
- Also, please remember that articles are supposed to be summaries of the topic, and subsections more peripheral to the main sections even more so. Sections on appearances of a character in media other than in the one the character is mainly known to appear in should be summarized even more succinctly. Detailed blow-by-blows of the entire plot of a film that are not necessary for a reader's understanding of character's appearance in a film, for example, are not appropriate. In the case of Eddie Brock and \i{Spider-Man} three, more detail would probably be warranted in the article on that film. Nightscream (talk) 11:48, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
Edit Warring at Venom (comics)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Venom (comics). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
In particular, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue edit warring, you may be blocked from editing. - SudoGhost 09:56, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Your recent edits
Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 01:13, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
September 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Abraxas, but we cannot accept original research. Original research 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. Ian.thomson (talk) 16:10, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
Editing Lola Bunny
Woah, calm down there! What was all that about? Do you need any help? It looks to me as though you're trying to fix the article, but you keep undoing and redoing your own edits. Let me know on my talkpage if you need a hand. Yunshui (talk) 12:35, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. In your recent edit to Lola Bunny, you added links to an article which did not add content or meaning, or repeated the same link several times throughout the article. Please see Wikipedia's guideline on links to avoid overlinking. Thank you. Karl 334 ☞TALK to ME ☜ 15:29, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited List of Digimon Xros Wars characters, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fallen Angel (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Demons and Norse mythology and legend
I have undone your edits adding Loki, Surtr, and Guðmundr to Category:European demons. While I appreciate your edit summaries and understand your thought process, this categorization is not reflected in the scholarly sources because it is alien to Norse mythology and to the Viking ethos, which includes among the heroes many characters one would not want to have to deal with in modern society. You are unconsciously drawing on your own religious and moral background rather than on the sources; unless the article refers to scholars characterizing a figure in this precise way, it's inaccurate to include them within the category. (In the case of Loki and Surtr, the nature of a jötunn often involves moral ambiguity or outright enmity against the gods; in the case of Guðmundr, Otto Höfler's theories of his origins are closer to a nature spirit or a Greek daimon than to what we mean in modern English by a demon, and in any event are theories of his origins; in the legends about him, he was a human king.

Ra's al Ghul
You've been reverted, discuss the changes you want on the talk page not the edit summaries.
Right now you are seriously disrupting the article just to get you preferred way.

Category: Fictional interdimensional beings
Hi, seems we have a bit of a disagreement over whether DN shinigami are interdimensional or not. Can I suggest that your category is misnamed, and would be better as e.g. [[Category: Fictional beings from parallel universes]] or similar? The shinigami *are* interdimensional, that's just fact; they come from a world which is not part of our physical universe. Vashti (talk) 08:02, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
- Just to keep you informed, I've put up a request to have the category renamed here. Vashti (talk) 09:38, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
List of Loonatics Unleashed characters
By "speculative," I meant that you were speculating -- when you add things things like "and possibly Queen Ty'Rahnee," you're just guessing and have nothing specific to base that claim on. Statements without any basis shouldn't be added to articles. Trivialist (talk) 11:41, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
- But unless you have a source for that, you can't put it in an article. Trivialist (talk) 00:29, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
- The article was completely unreferenced and original research, so it didn't meet basic Wikipedia article standards. Trivialist (talk) 00:41, 20 August 2013 (UTC)
- If you can find references, sure. Though it might be better added to the main Loonatics Unleashed article, unless there's a lot of information. Trivialist (talk) 00:52, 20 August 2013 (UTC)

WP:Original research and moving articles
This and this edit you made are unacceptable, like I noted here and here. You are not supposed to engage in WP:Original research (read that policy), which includes WP:SYNTHESIS, and you are not supposed to move articles based on faulty reasoning...such as "What if it's a woman? Then it would be a 'Goddess Complex'." Gods can also be women, though "the God" is generally considered to be male. Wikipedia has a title policy that it goes by; see Wikipedia:Article titles. One aspect of that policy is WP:Common name. Do I need experienced Wikipedia editors such as BD2412 to assist me in explaining that to you? And this revert you made was of course unwise, for reasons noted in these edit summaries. Flyer22 (talk) 05:44, 3 February 2014 (UTC)
