Please see MOS:NATIONALITY before making changes to the nationality. Generally the ethnicity is not mentioned here unless relevant to the subject's notability. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 00:28, 24 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

I have reverted your addition of a date of birth to Ann Magnuson along with the citation to IMDb. That source is not reliable for use in Wikipedia articles. Please see WP:IMDB for comments about this topic. You might also want to read WP:USERGENERATED to see some other sources that are similarly unreliable.

Please stop adding birth dates sourced to IMDB - as Teblick previously explained, IMDB is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:IMDB. Waxworker (talk) 14:11, 11 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Nice edit summary. Thank for all of the detail! So appreciated. JSFarman (talk) 15:47, 23 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

The population figure you added to Polish diaspora with this edit wasn't supported by the source you cited, so I've corrected it. Please take care to ensure that the material you add is supported by the source you cite. Cordless Larry (talk) 17:16, 16 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Herbert J. Siegel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Viacom. 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.)

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from one or more pages to Daniel Cohn-Bendit. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution must be given retroactively, for example:

NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit; see Repairing insufficient attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. This message refers to revision 1253767077 of the article.
