See WP:VERIFY. I disagree that these weren't needed, and if you look at my user page you'll see that I've probably been around enough to know. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 11:45, 17 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm DonQuixote. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Miss Moneypenny, 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. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Particularly, you would need to cite a source that says, the film makes a playful reference...etc. DonQuixote (talk) 22:57, 14 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Seriously, you would need to cite a source that explicitly states the film makes a playful reference to her...etc. DonQuixote (talk) 23:46, 14 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

The source is the film itself. Are you disputing the quotes? Stop reverting my edits. I am improving the page by providing new content based on the film.

Nowhere in the film does it say the film makes a playful reference--that's the original research part. DonQuixote (talk) 00:04, 15 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
From WP:OR Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation. and Do not analyze, evaluate, interpret, or synthesize material found in a primary source yourself; instead, refer to reliable secondary sources that do so.
It's literally telling you not to do that. DonQuixote (talk) 00:08, 15 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi Kev, thanks for your edit to Joni Mitchell, but Wikipedia uses straight apostrophes rather than curly ones, so I've adjusted your change accordingly. Graham87 04:28, 21 June 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Darkwarriorblake. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Raiders of the Lost Ark have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 23:11, 9 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Raiders of the Lost Ark. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 23:11, 9 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

I removed incorrect information. That is not vandalism. By reverting my edit, you are reintroducing incorrect information. KevCureton (talk) 23:34, 9 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
What is incorrect about it? Darkwarriorblake (talk) 06:39, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
His relationship to Marion was not “illicit.” KevCureton (talk) 13:12, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Why not? Is the underage part not illicit? The age difference? It was an inappropriate relationship and the reason for the breakdown in Indy and Abner's relationship. The Development section talks about how much younger Marion was than Indy. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 13:19, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
She was not underage. The relationship may have been inappropriate, but it was not illicit. KevCureton (talk) 13:24, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
Feel free to check the definition here [1] but this discussion is otherwise over. Use the Raiders of the Lost Ark talk page to solicit support for your view before changing it again or it will be considered disruptive.Darkwarriorblake (talk) 13:28, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
