Hello, I'm Djm-leighpark. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Roland Orzabal, 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 the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Djm-leighpark (talk) 17:31, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Roland Orzabal, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. IMDB is not a reliable source.

Why is citation 12 for Roland Orzabal 'Orzabal married Caroline Johnston at Bath Register Office in 1982' included? It is from an IMDB source. JamesDFern (talk) 20:17, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Because nobody has removed it yet. Notfrompedro (talk) 20:35, 12 September 2021 (UTC)

Why was my added information deleted by someone, whereas the above information we are talking about just says 'citation needed?' Could not the valid information I added not just have that same comment, rather than being completely deleted? This seems like a double standard. Also citation 1 on his page is from a fan page which is not acceptable in any way under Wikipedia rules, whereas sometimes IMDB is. Citation 1 is used 3 times in this article and no one has bothered to remove those. JamesDFern (talk) 23:57, 13 September 2021 (UTC)
