Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, The Club (video game), 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) 12:43, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Tao Feng: Fist of the Lotus, 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 would like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at The Outfit (video game), you may be blocked from editing. Waxworker (talk) 17:24, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced or poorly sourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Transformers: Cybertron Adventures. Waxworker (talk) 17:59, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 11

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ritual Entertainment, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Richard Gray. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 17:59, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I wanted to be unblocked from my account, it's because I got information from a single source "MobyGames", which supposedly is unreliable for Wikipedia administrators and I don't see what the problem is in this information. Dr floflo 974 (talk) 15:57, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

You are adding information to living people such as their birthday, birth location, etc, without quoting any source. "BLPs", that is biographies for living people (see WP:BLP), require reliable sourcing. It's not optional. MobyGames is indeed an unreliable source, because it is edited by users without oversight. See our guideline on user-generated content. IMDB is another unreliable user-generated site and cannot be used to support statements about BLPs. Your block is because you continued to make these unsourced and inappropriate edits after several warnings, without stopping or asking for advice. -- ferret (talk) 16:05, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

But what is inappropriate about MobyGames? I don't understand! Dr floflo 974 (talk) 16:38, 12 June 2024 (UTC)

Please click this link: WP:USERG. User-generated sites do not have editorial control or oversight, that is, there is no one checking the facts and making sure they are correct. Anyone can edit it to say things, so such sites do not have any reputation for fact checking or accuracy, and are unreliable. -- ferret (talk) 16:42, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
