[edit]Please refrain from making what appear to be unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Changes to information on TV shows, especially children's programming, should be accompanied by reliable sources supporting those edits. Airdates and other numerical data related to TV programs are common targets for "sneaky vandalism" and thus are dubious when unsourced. Your edits have been reverted or removed. Repeated unsourced edits like this can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. EvergreenFir (talk) 04:55, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
Actor DOBs
[edit]Hi, I'm just informing you that I undid your recent DOB edits for some celebs because you used Times Of India as a source. That's not a reliable source when it comes to WP:DOB as it's been known to web scrape. It even says here to not use that for DOB details as a lot of them were incorrect.[1]. And I'll say this right now, don't just go using whatever websites you find online that show a DOB without considering whether or not it's a reliable source. Many of them don't indicate where they got that info from and many of them have the incorrect DOB listed for other actors. So for all we know they could be web scraping as well.
When it comes to WP:BLP the number of reliable sources is quite slim and there are only very few acceptable options. A truly reliable Secondary source(IE a magazine such as Entertainment Weekly, Los Angeles Times or New York Times. And preferably multiple of these) reporting their exact DOB. Or a social media post from the subject themselves where he or she confirms his or her birthday and preferably either his or her age or YOB in the same post as well. Failing either any of these, that info should kept out of articles for the time being. Kcj5062 (talk) 08:21, 24 November 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Jorge Diaz (actor), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Waxworker (talk) 05:08, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
