Welcome!
editHello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Reliable sources
editHello. Wikipedia has rather strict rules on biographies of a living person. It is very important to cite a reliable source when add information to these articles. Self-published sites and user-generated content are not suitable. This would include the IMDb, Ranker, blogs, and other assorted random websites. If in doubt, stick to published newspapers and magazines. See also our core content policies. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:42, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
- Please stop re-adding unsourced information to Elisha Cuthbert. When you add unsourced information and your edit is reverted, the burden is on you to provide sources for its inclusion. I have cited some of the awards that you added, but I couldn't find sources for some of the others. If an award, especially a nomination, is so minor that nobody has reported it, it's likely that including the award is undue. At the very least, a citation to the official site would be required.

- ok, and I quote the sources of other prizes can?Wade Jones (talk) 15:42, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
- I don't understand what you're asking, but if you can cite the awards with a reliable source, you can add back anything that I removed. Reliable sources would be sites like Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, Los Angeles Times, Deadline.com, TheWrap, etc. You can see a partial list at WP:FILM/R.

- I don't know what to say. Will you please stop adding poorly sourced content to Elisha Cuthbert? This time, all you did was link to the main site of the awards organization for many of these awards. I check them, and they don't even mention Cuthbert anywhere on their site. You really not to stop adding poorly sourced content or you can lose your access to Wikipedia. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 20:11, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
