FairPlay
editCopied from User talk:KelleyCook: Hi, I found this edit of yours: [1]. When you find an error, why don't you fix it instead of just deleting everything? Don't you think that deleting information others have entered is kind of bad? Paluv (talk) 12:22, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
- Hi Paluv. Wikipedia welcomes your addition to FairPlay article, but it had numerous problems. Here is why I deleted it: One solitary entry on a forum that had a dead link is cannot be considered a WP:Reliable source. Secondly, this product would deserve its own section as it is not affilitated with the Hymn series. Third, the forum entry was by Brahms, but there is no indication that the forum writer is the author of the program. After it failed the quick verification test, *I* wasn't going to spend much time researching the matter further. Please feel free to fix it or alternatively if you wish point me to the program I will add the information to the article myself. -- KelleyCook (talk) 14:31, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Asserting anybody is the 'number one' at anything is implicitly controversial. Without a citation, at least to the date of the issue in which this accolade is mentioned, under current Wikipedia policy & practice it will inevitably be eventually cut from the article. See WP:CITE. The tag only serves to note that a ref is needed. If you want to help the article, rather than removing the 'citation needed' tag, you should add a proper reference.

- Well it's written right there in the article: Magazine "NME" for May 2008. No need to add a reference to the end if everything is already written inside the article, no? Paluv (talk) 21:46, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yes. Absolutely a need for a proper reference. I again recommend reading WP:CITE. Wwwhatsup (talk) 01:22, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- I did it. And, in fact, discovered the fact to be in error, in that it appears that the 'Future 50' list was issued in April.Wwwhatsup (talk) 03:04, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
