Reliable sources
[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope the message above will help you navigate and learn Wikipedia. I want to emphasize the need for reliable sources. Famousbirthdays.com and TheFamouspeople.com are not considered reliable. There's no master list, and determining what sources are considered reliable can be difficult. When in doubt, searching past discussions at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard can be helpful. --Ronz (talk) 15:13, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

[edit]
Please do not add or change content, as you did at The Morrígan, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Clarifying here - You didn't change the content in the article, but added a source that's not reliable. Please read up on how to identify reliable sources and only add those, otherwise people may perceive these additions as a form of advertising or spamming, even if wholly well-intentioned.

Icarus and reliable sources
[edit]Sorry to revert you, but the links you provided, though very correctly formed, didn't link to sources that are acceptable for a Wikipedia article on this topic. The first was to an apparently amateur website, anonymously written, or at least with no author credentials. The other was to a travel site. Please read up on Wikipedia's policies regarding sources.

Reliable sources again
[edit]Hi, when adding references to Wikipedia articles, make sure they are reliable sources. Wikis such as TVTropes, and even sites with user-generated content like IMDb, are usually not reliable sources, except under very specific conditions. Additionally, a citation needs to directly support the material which uses it as a reference. For example, in the article about John Kricfalusi, if you wish to reference that he directed Close But No Cigar, this information has to be in the cited source, it can't only mention that Weird Al released a song named Close But No Cigar.
In addition, and this is perhaps even more important, take great care to avoid circular sourcing. If parts of the source and the Wikipedia article have nearly the same text, it is very likely that the source copied Wikipedia. Specifically, the auction-house site you cited copied nearly word-for-word parts of the article John Kricfalusi. Bright☀ 16:03, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
