Hi. I note that you used an external link to IMDb on this article, which is fine. However, you don't seem to be aware that there are specific templates for doing that, namely {{IMDb title}} and {{IMDb name}}. These are to be preferred to the way you did it, for reasons explained at WT:WikiProject Film/Archive 79#Masking imdb links as wikilinks: saving others like me having to clean up afterwards.

Wikipedia and copyright
[edit]Hello Martineden83! Your additions to 2023 New York Film Festival have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably free and compatible copyright license. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, please ask them here on this page, or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:27, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

- Hi. I noticed that you removed a template that had tagged a revision for deletion, and that you had marked it as a minor edit. As the template instructions note,
Please do not remove this template before an administrator has reviewed it
. - Cheers!

[edit]Your recent editing history at Golden Osella shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Sortable tables
[edit]Hey. Just curious why you're disabling all of these sortable tables all of a sudden? Not that I have any problem with it whatsoever, but it is a somewhat drastic change, because I'd wager a fair amount of people use it and { sort name } is ingrained into everything, so it's rather abrupt and w/o explanation in your edit summaries. They are rather useless, because people can just CTRL+F and count imo, but that's just me. I'd back you up if ever challenged for consensus, for what it's worth! --Cinemaniac86TalkStalk 11:26, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- Couldn't you just add them again? Why revert everything? Most of the Globes pages didn't had the sortable option, i was trying to update all of them Martineden83 (talk) 11:39, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
- Either one of us can revert back. The whole point was you're making abrupt, drastic changes without edit summaries. The Oscar pages, for example, are still all sortable, so it's pretty common practice. That's why I'm just suggesting at least explain your edits when you're doing that. --Cinemaniac86TalkStalk 11:45, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
