Hello, I'm TheRedPenOfDoom. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Zombie (fictional), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 16:24, 20 December 2012 (UTC)

If the only source for the information you wish to include is the youtube video itself, then it is probably not a significant example which provides any encyclopedic information or context. In general, news papers and books are acceptable sources, you can find them at books.google.com and news.google.com

There is lots of stuff in Wikipedia articles that probably shouldn't be there and wouldn't be there if there was an automatic review for every submission, but there is not such an automatic review process.

As people contributing to Wikipedia our personal opinions and analysis cannot be included as article content, and any one can put anything on the web and so general google searches to confirm anything are pretty useless. Wikipedia content needs to be verified as having been previously published by someone or organization with an established record of fact checking and accuracy. In addition, we attempt to present items in the representative proportion that the reliable sources utilize them. If the reliable sources have no or minimal coverage of a particular example, then the Wikipedia article probably should not represent that in the same proportion - little to none.-- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 18:05, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
