Hi. When you recently edited Drunken Master II, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bonzai (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Citing a web URL

[edit]

Dear Tman418,

Thank you for your contribution on Prometheus article. But I believe your information was placed in the wrong section. You placed your information in Critical Reception, which is more about how critics reviewed it. The info should be directly under Release headline.

Also, when you cite a URL, please do not include the raw URL in the ref tag. Many webpages, especially on dynamic websites, are prone to link rot and becomes a dead link eventually. Go to a place that creates a permanent archive of that page, such as http://www.webcitation.org/archive.php . Enter the information about the source you cite. (Mind the proper format suggested on the page itself.) Once you submit, it will create a permanent link for you. And you can cite that permanent link instead. When it's done, it even provides you with something like:

Pierce, Nev. The Matrix Reloaded (2003). BBC. 2012-11-29. URL:http://www.bbc.co.uk/films/2003/05/15/the_matrix_reloaded_2003_review.shtml. Accessed: 2012-11-29. (Archived by WebCite® at http://www.webcitation.org/6CX9yh4UX)

(Please see the text in the editor menu for its real form. ^)

You can just put it between ref tag syntax, and it's finished. You can look at WP:Citation templates. There should be form on how to cite a web URL. Just fill in the info above. ^

Anyway, I'm afraid there's a policy called "No original research" (WP:NOR). You're aware, of course, about a citing reference. But this policy goes further. If a source does not directly say or mean something, you cannot form your own conclusion and say it in the article, then claim that source as a source of your conclusion. I'm afraid that your claim in the bold text below is your own conclusion, which means you cannot say this.

For its IMAX release, the aspect ratio of Prometheus was expanded to 2:0:1 from its original 2:35:1 ratio to take advantage of IMAX's bigger, and taller screens.[1]

And the info that is not in bold has already been covered under Release section. The article has already said it was released in IMAX. That the ratio has to expand to 2:35:1 is already obvious, since IMAX is naturally bigger. So this information is not needed.

Well, I am really sorry. I know that you are fairly new, and might get discouraged when I point out this many mistakes, but the point is not to reprimand you, but tell you how to contribute contents that will be accepted in the future.

When you reply, add a line under this and add a colon before it. I will receive the message.

Regards, Anthonydraco (talk) 12:40, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. I see that you added it to Skyfall too. I'm afraid that someone will revert it. Anthonydraco (talk) 12:44, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited The Monkey King (film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page 3D (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Born to Defence, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Song Jia (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
