Bibliography

As you gather the sources for your Wikipedia contribution, think about the following:

Is the source from a reliable publication?
- Reliable publications include established newspapers, academic journals and books, textbooks, and other published sources with reputations for accuracy and fact-checking.
- Unreliable sources include blog posts and other self-published works, press releases, and social media posts.
Is the source verifiable?
- In order for a source to be considered verifiable, other editors should be able to consult the source.
Is the source independent of the subject?
- Is the source connected in any way to the subject? This is especially important when writing biographies or about organizations.
- For example, if you were writing a biography, sources like the person's webpage or personal blog would not be considered independent.
Is the source primary or secondary?
- Primary sources include first-hand accounts, autobiographies, and other original content.
- Wikipedia allows limited use of primary sources, but typically only for straightforward, descriptive statements of facts, and only if they are published and verifiable without requiring specialized knowledge.
- Secondary sources should be the main basis for a biography on Wikipedia.
If you're working on a topic related to medicine or psychology, ensure that your sources follow these special guidelines.
If you're creating a new article, consider the following:
- Ensure that your topic meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines.
- In order for a topic to meet the notability requirement, you must be able to identify 2-3 sources that are reliable, verifiable, and independent of the subject you're writing about.
- Finding sufficient sources to establish notability can be especially hard when writing about people or organizations.
- Sources that are not independent of the subject might be useful additions, but don't count towards the notability requirement.
- Wikipedia has developed special guidelines for writing about living persons. Please follow these carefully.
- Wikipedia has a series of guidelines for writing about different categories of people, such as academics and artists. If you're trying to create a new entry about a living person, please look at these carefully.

If you're not sure whether a source is reliable, ask a librarian! If you have questions about Wikipedia's sourcing rules, you can use the Get Help button below to contact your Wikipedia Expert.

Proposal

The Wikipedia article about the movie "The Maze Runner" is the inspiration for this proposal. Although the article gives a good overview of the movie and its making, there are some places where more information and clarification could be provided.

Background information on the source material: The article mentions that the film is based on a novel, but it would be beneficial to include a concise summary of the novel's plot and characters in order to compare and contrast these aspects with the film's adaptation. Despite the fact that the article lists the principal cast members and the characters they play, a brief synopsis of each character's function and personality would shed more light on the movie. Production design and visual effects: Although the article mentions that the movie was filmed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, it would be interesting to learn more about the production design, such as how the maze was constructed and how visual effects were used to create the post-apocalyptic setting. Reception and legacy: The article briefly discusses the movie's box office success and critical acclaim, but it would be helpful to go into more depth about how audiences responded to the movie and how it has been remembered over time. Has it gained a large amount of following, for instance, or has its lack of originality been criticized? Clarity and concision: The article could use a clearer and more concise writing style because some of the sentences are too long and confusing to understand. Use of sources: The article could benefit from the addition of more references, such as filmmaker interviews, critic reviews, and production notes. Clearly defined sections, such as "Plot," "Cast and characters," "Production," "Reception," and "Legacy," would help the article be more complete.

Example: Baker, William J.; Dransfield, John (2016). "Beyond Genera Palmarum: progress and prospects in palm systematics". Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society.^[3]
- This is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, so it should be a reliable source for a specific fact. Since it only dedicates a few sentences to the topic, it can't be used to establish notability.
