User talk:I had mustard

January 2009

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Lionsgate Home Entertainment. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. -- Why Not A Duck 02:29, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Forum posts are not really reliable sources. See WP:RS. From the "Overview" section of that policy: "Articles should rely on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. This means that we only publish the opinions of reliable authors, and not the opinions of Wikipedians who have read and interpreted primary source material for themselves." All the existence of those forum posts really establishes, is that some people are angry. Well, but saying how many people, and why they are angry, is your own interpretation of that material -- see WP:OR. One more note, just going back and putting the same thing in over and over again is not the way to go (see WP:EW). People don't agree with you, so talk to people -- use the article's talk page (Talk:Lionsgate Home Entertainment) to make the case for why the information should be included. Not why you're right, but how the information is reliably verified. -- Why Not A Duck 02:30, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
