Chris Redfield GAN

First of all I would just like to say thank you for all your help on Chris' page. You have done a wonderful job fixing the citations and trimming down the RE6 synopsis. Now I just have one question, what did you mean when you said you'd help if additional references are needed? PanagiotisZois (talk) 20:48, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello @PanagiotisZois: I was not sure if if the plot section of Chris Redfield's article needed additional references. I believe Freikorp commented, "A large portion of the text in the 'Resident Evil games' is unreferenced. Everything needs to be backed up by a reliable source, or removed.", but he has since reported this issue has been fixed. We should be good to go with that issue and no further references should be needed. I am happy to help! Please let me know if you need anything else. Keep up the good work. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  21:37, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

Why do remove good edits?

Why? Don't reply on my page either. Reply here, please.PeterMan844 (talk) 16:00, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

What does sentence have to do with Resident Evil 7? Let's break down this contribution:

“ Tokyo Maru also announced a limited edition gun based on the weapon Redfield uses, indicating that it's a gun that has so far only been used by the protagonists. ”

• Tokyo Maru also announced – They did not announce this; they merely have a link to it on their website. Again, what is the relationship between this and Resident Evil 7. This is not considered a proper citation.
• ...limited edition gun based on the weapon Redfield uses – When was the last time he used this gun in canon? In Resi 5 - No? In Resi 6 -No?
• indicating that it's a gun that has so far only been used by the protagonists – This is an inaccurate statement; STARS members use the Samurai Edge, not just protagonists. You consider Wesker a protagonist? Even the listing for the item has a STARS insignia in the corner.

But then we look at the overall context of this addition and the statement you added alongside:

• Allthough it remains to be seen if this is truly Chris Redfield or someone using his name , Capcom has announced – You understand the contraction and uncertainty in this statement? It's horribly written and invalidates the preceding statements in the paragraph, which implies the character at the end of the game is not Chris Redfield. Yes, Capcom stated, "Chris Redfield returns in the free “Not A Hero” DLC for #RE7 this Spring. Who or what is he chasing? Find out soon in this separate story." Yet suddenly we assume he's the star of the DLC? He will be in the DLC, there's no official word yet in what role or if he is in fact the character at the end of the game. Why are we jumping the gun over a single tweet meant as a teaser? There's no context in it whatsoever. Wikipedia has a zero tolerance policy towards speculation, and yet you induce it blatantly with this statement over a single tweet. News articles do this to get views.

What is the ultimate purpose behind the Samuri Edge statement? That character named 'Chris Redfield' is in fact the Chris Redfield because he wields the same gun? We don't allow that - you would have known this if you read WP:SYN. You deliberately added this line right after a section discussing Resident Evil 7. I do not know what to tell you if you still think it's acceptable to add statements in the form of speculative prose. Your assumption may very well be true, but it does not belong on an encyclopedia until it's confirmed. You should know this, We've 'suggested' this to you five+ times now? [1][2][3][4][5]. Then again you seem to a fan edited site that mirrors Wikipedia is reliable source. In that case, please be more careful. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  17:55, 24 February 2017 (UTC)

@PeterMan844: - Related to this, your revised edit to Chris Redfield was much better. Just remember you can only add content that is explicitly stated within the reference. At this point in time, the source you added makes no mention that Chris will in-fact be the protagonist or even a playable character in the DLC. At this point the media is only going off the Tweet that CapCom made that merely stated Chris Redfield will return in the DLC. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  00:04, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

@PeterMan844: - You should report vandalism to WP:AIV. But you need to issue at-least three separate warnings before reporting them. If you feel an editor or anon is only using an account for disruptive or vulgar edits, warn them once and create a report. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  23:50, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

Chester Bennington

I see you reported the IP that was disrupting this page. But another IP has come along and is making the same edits. I don't know how many times I have reverted their edits and I don't think they will be willing to talk about it on the talk page. This could be the same person doing these edits. Also I requested the page to be protected at Wikipedia:Requests for page protection about an hour or two ago. Bowling is life (talk) 19:10, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

@Bowling is life:, I think it's the same user based on the new comment they left on your talk page. I say we should let the 3RR Noticeboard staff deal with this - hold off any any reverts for now until they either ban the user or lock the article. I do not think this user is interested in having a meaningful content discussion. I updated my incident report to include the new IP and the personal attack that was left on your Talk page. They should have enough evidence to handle this. You may want to update the Request for protection to include multiple IP's as opposed to single IP. ;) --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  19:17, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

@StarScream1007: I updated my request. I'll hold off on reverts on Chester's page but it looks like the IP user left another message on my talk page. Bowling is life (talk) 19:22, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

@Bowling is life: a SysOp has locked the page for a month. The 3RR case is still open so I'm not sure if they will block the IPs. This is a better resolution given that anon is trying to block-dodge by using multiple IPs. We've done our due diligence by offering the user to have a serious decision but they refused on multiple tries. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  22:25, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your edit on Chester Bennington's page. However, I think a section titled "Health" should mention Bennington's health issue. This is a disconcerting pattern on pages of people who have committed suicide. Everything seems to be going well for them, until they take their own life! Most people committing suicide suffer from deep mental issues. In the case of Bennington, this is well documented and deserves mention, at least in my eyes. Right now, the page doesn't contain a single mention of the word "depression". What do you think? Antoine jed (talk) 13:54, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

@Antoine jed:, we would need a reliable source that explicitly states he was diagnosed as clinically depressed by a professional at the time of his death as opposed to exhibiting symptoms associated with depression. The article mentions he was emotionally distraught over the death of his friend, Chris Cornell, in the time leading up to his death. Thanks,--  StarScream1007  ►Talk  15:40, 13 February 2019 (UTC)

Chicago Cubs history

someone had Falling short on 2017, maybe we should keep that, I think we need to put something for 2018 so people can know an explanation of what happened this season — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Speller (talk • contribs) 23:39, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

@The Speller: - I most definitely agree with you. However, it's advised to avoid terms like 'falling short', 'inconsistent', 'struggled'. Wikipedia considers these 'weasel words'. We should instead directly specify why or how the team fell short - ex, "Yu Darvish was injured for 70% of the season?" or "The team averaged less than 3 runs per game (just throwing out numbers) in September". Lastly the section would need some sort of source - an article from ESPN, SI, or the Trib that verifies the previous statement. Does this help? --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  02:32, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

Well I think we should put back the explanation of this season back on here while we can think about putting a new word for 2018:

Please take the time to actually read and understand the policies/guidelines I stated in my previous response and re-consider your suggestion. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  18:40, 4 October 2018 (UTC)

ok how come y'all scratched out about Yu Darvish season? Brandon Morrow? etc, And the collapsing in September? — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Speller (talk • contribs) 17:44, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

I have no problem with the induction of the material so long as it is written coherently, professionally, and in accordance with Wikipedia's core policies. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  19:21, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

Falling short was on their for like a year after they got eliminated NLCS why change it now lol — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Speller (talk • contribs) 05:43, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

http://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/24439216/yu-darvish-chicago-cubs-miss-rest-season-elbow-triceps-injuries

https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/08/21/yu-darvish-injury-stress-reaction-elbow-triceps-strain-cubs

so the Giants can have 'Inconsistent struggles' on theirs but the Cubs can't have 'Falling short'? Yeah that makes no sense

Since you’re a novice editor with less than one year of experience, I strongly recommend you take the time to read WP:NPOV and WP:Weasel, which explain why to avoid using vague/generic phrases like ,‘Struggle’, ‘Inconsistent’, and ‘Falling Short’. These terms will be flagged and removed in almost any article that has been peer-reviewed or copy-edited. In the Cubs ~140 year existence, they have only won the world series three times – does that mean they fell short 137 times? Of Course – unless having at least one player with ambiguous morality on your roster is considered exceeding expectations. Sure, there are other articles that use that terminology but that does not make it right – you will seldomly see this verbiage in any GA-FA-class article. The logic ‘something is broken there, it’s okay to do it here’ is the most decadent and inacceptable grounds for inclusion on not only Wikipedia, but any medium.

However, I thank you for providing these good sources on the injuries that will be used to add information to the section to explain the Cubs fall futility. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  18:05, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

all I want is the stuff when someone put about the 2018 season about Yu Darvish, Brandon Morrow, etc that was on their before you deleted all of it, I just want it back on here like it was Wednesday. It was perfectly fine on here on the article talking about what happened to Yu Darvish and the others — Preceding unsigned comment added by The Speller (talk • contribs) 21:22, 6 October 2018 (UTC)

May I suggest 2015-present: Playoff run or something similar like 2015-present: Championship Run? How do you think that will be?

Hi,

Rick Gosselin is a NFL Hall of Fame voter, Dick McCann Memorial Award honoree and considered by the football world as the top source for Special teams. His Dallas Morning News annual special teams rankings are quoted in numerous publications and considered the gold standard of the industry. To discard his work and say that his publications are with a "poor reputation" is a insult to him and to journalism.

I don't know why you chose this specific article for your "Watchlist", but I corrected a lot of the mistakes I did at the beginning of my contribution after you pointed my errors. My contributions are verifiable through reliable sources and added after a long research and cross-checking. In the past you deleted a references from verified sources such as Chicago Tribune, ESPN and other major newspapers across america, so the cancelling of my work starting to look arbitrary.

Please take this into your consideration.

Wikipedia has a policy against Self-Published Sources. The source you provided is not notable and is self-published. We generally avoid self-published sources unless they are well-established and cited/used by other sources. However, FiveThirtyEight is a self-published website, but is often used by major sports and politics website for information. This is not a shot at Gosselin. If his roster was published on SI, like this one [6], we'd have another story. We can definitely add Gosselin's comments again if you can find it another medium that meets WP:RS. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  21:55, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

That exactly the point!

His work quoted in numerous publications and official teams websites [7], [8] that consider him as the top source for Hall of Fame data and Special Teams units.

The example you gave is exactly the opposite from your point. Yes, it was published on well-established site (SI), but was just a fun exercise and have no formal merit (but you can understand how important he is, by the fact he was invited as an outsider). As I said before, Gosselin's work is the gold standard in the industry, his publications go online after a long research and cross-checking from numerous sources and talks with coaches, players and sport historians - something you can check on simple google search.

His sources (and mine for that matter) are legit, pleas treat them as such.

StanleyKey (talk) 15:37, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Neither source uses the given article as a source. We're not talking about Gosselin as a unreliable source, but rather the media in question that is quotes for failing WP:SPS. However, given your making a good faith edit, I'm not going to contest this anymore, but cannot say the same for other editors. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  16:11, 17 November 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cubbie15fan. I noticed that you recently removed content from Kerry Wood without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. As a note, Randy Johnson did also strike out 20 batters in nine innings. Here is a link to the box score. Hope this helps. Cubbie15fan (talk) 19:37, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

The wordage is interesting here. Randy Johnson only struck out 19 batters in an actual 9-inning game. The 20K game was actually an 11-inning game, though Johnson only pitched in 9 of those. I suppose the statement would have been true should it have said, "Most K's through 9 innings" :) --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  19:59, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

You gave the reason for your edit here Special:diff/889171420 as : There's no policy against mentioning this here in the lead paragraph, especially since it's not mentioned elsewhere.. And im totally convinced about this because i too know about policies of Wikipedia. But many corrupt Wikipedians with many no. of edits, disrespect wikipedia by neglecting all the rules and doing whatever they want. Now coming onto the point.

A day ago, I added a ranking of Pearl Jam in a reader's poll by Rolling Stone whose citation was derived from Rolling Stones' official site here Special:diff/889044457, thus prooving the reliability. But some administrators like Lugnuts and the most corrupt wikipedian of all i.e. RegentsPark reverted it continuously as one can see here Special:diff/888800482, here Special:diff/888930921, hereSpecial:diff/888946449, and here Special:diff/889079281, thus breaking the three-revert rule of Wikipedia. Also, Lugnuts removed a sourced content which was referenced with reliable source here Special:diff/889092793 saying that being at 93rd in all time list of artists of all genres isn't significant. One should notice the fact that the list didn't contain bands like Iron maiden, Creedence Clearwater Revival and Grateful Dead. Even a person of unsound mind can judge that this is the peak of disruptive editing and vandalism by these two guys. Lugnuts should be given a last warning or maybe punishment but RegentsPark deserves to be impeached from his status of administrator because i reported a similar activity from him of continuous reverting 2 months ago. You can have Ritchie333 and Martinevans123 as a witness. He helped me a lot in that case. But the question, will you too help me in exposing these corrupt guys to the authority. Ritchie i don't know why isn't replying to me. So i am kind of not able to handle though i have done so in past. So i ask for your helping hand. I am Former wikipedian HardSunBadMoon a.k.a Chandra Shekher Mishra.

Needs your interference

Please see the recent edits on Pearl Jam. I added content which enhanced the legacy section but Lugnuts seems to create an edit war on the page. He removed the content without proper reason. That section which he is mentioning has your comment in which you said that we should let add contents from popular sources because expanding legacy section is necessary in a page which has such high importance. These kinds of interruptions are not necessary. Please handle the situation and proceed in letting the content addition. Nothing is more important than enhancing an article.

A cup of coffee for you!

I wanted to thank you for your edit on User talk:92.247.171.213 to back up the revert on Mike Shinoda. I felt uncomfortable reverting the change a third time because it was beginning to take on the pattern of an edit war. Also, it was clear this person was not going to listen to me, so hopefully a second person reaching out can get through. And if does not get through, then I feel perfectly fine with a ban on them. They've had more than enough opportunities to step up and do the right thing. Thanks again! KNHaw (talk) 19:53, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

Chicago Blackhawks sourcing?

Hi,

I noticed you reverted my flounder => founder edit. I don't really have a problem with that.

But I noticed something else: that section, and several other sections within "Franchise History" appear to be entirely unsourced.

As you appear to be more familiar with the article, I'm wondering if you know what the source is for these segments. I'm not sure what the WP:MOS says about this, but shouldn't each segment have a footnote with a source?

I'll be happy to help with this task if you can point me to which sources these segments are coming from.

Best, Webbbbbbber (talk) 23:39, 24 August 2020 (UTC)

Hello @Webbbbbbber:, thank you for your comment. Sadly, it appears that section (and many other sections) are lacking key sources. This is most unfortunate as verifiability is one of the most important parts of Wikipedia. Anything you can do to help source these sections would be appreciated. You may find some helpful information about the Wirtz takeover here [9][10]. I primarily use news articles for sourcing, but you can use books (or e-books) or magazine articles. Any help would be welcome and appreciated by the other editors of the page. Thanks again! --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  02:15, 25 August 2020 (UTC)

Angry Video Game Nerd Edits

The section detailing the critical decline of AVGN was reverted as you deemed Reddit to not be a reliable resource. Are there exceptions to this rule because I have come across many Wikipedia articles that cite Reddit AMAs for some of their information? In this instance, I cited the official subreddit for Cinemassacre as there was only one website I found that elaborated on this topic and I didn't link it because it appeared to be more of a blog than an news piece, although, I think it was well written despite this. So should I go ahead and just use this website instead? --Domestic Weirdo (talk) 03:03, 23 November 2020 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Domestic Weirdo (talk • contribs) 23:36, 22 November 2020 (UTC) --Domestic Weirdo (talk) 03:03, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

@Domestic Weirdo: Reddit is explicitly regarded as a non-reliable source per WP:USERG- a page under WP:Reliable Source. The general idea is that sources of information that can be directly edited by non-attributable users are deemed non-reliable (ironic, huh?). An AMA is slightly different territory, as there is usually an effort by Reddit to verify the identity of the AMA subject. While it would still fall under WP:USERG and WP:USESPS, it could perhaps be allowed by discretion of an editor, but subject to removal pending a discussion. The maintenance tag {{Better source}} would be used in this case. Instead of citing Reddit or a forum, I would see if there are professional reviews or well-known articles that offer specific criticism about AVGN post Screenwave. Nonetheless, I would like to thank you for at least making the effort to cite a source. Hope this helps, --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  23:55, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

Cubs-White Sox notable moments

How could notable moments of the Cubs-White Sox rivalry be useless? I mean every rivalry has notable moments in them. I mean if we can't add any notable games in the history section then why can't we just have a notable moments section describing some great moments of the games from that rivalry. I understand I didn't provide a source but you still could have added them instead of just removing them. I'm not trying to be rude, I'm just trying to make a point and wondering how could notable moments from a White Sox and Cubs rivalry be useless? --50.200.136.234 (talk) 13:01, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

I would recommend reading up on Wikipedia’s policy regarding notability. Memorable or sentimental events from a game are not considered notable as they are subjective from fan-to-fan. Does the event have historical significance? Did the event have significant coverage beyond the game itself? How did the event impact or change the rivalry? These items would need context backed by reliable sources. I get the argument that ‘other articles have notable games sections’, but the that’s a moot point – other stuff exists is not a valid argument on here. Show me a Good Article or Featured Article about a rivalry and how it handles notable games. In most cases, the events would be addressed in the article’s prose rather than a stand alone list where their importance and context can be established.

I feel like there should be some sort of YouTube API that tracks the episode number from the AVGN playlist

I've seen the edit on Angry Video Game Nerd that incremented the number of episodes by one— I bet the manual way of doing this would be painful enough. I'm just wondering about a way how this could be automated? "Hook" into a YouTube playlist and track its video count? GreenGrenier (talk) 04:15, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

@GreenGrenier:, that is actually a very good idea. I have never seen anyone implement web-hooks on this Wiki, but that would save a lot of time. Yes, it's is very tedious to manually update video and subscriber counters. Fortunately, AVGN only releases a one or two episodes a month. I can poke around and maybe ask the Community Portal if they have any suggestions. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  14:08, 29 April 2022 (UTC)

Seems fair enough. I guess a sort of API and a little bit of JavaScript can work? I'd have to try on my sandbox. GreenGrenier (talk) 05:08, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

Tyrant (Resident Evil)

This article is outdated and awful. I hope you improved it, especially the concept and design section or nominate the article as GAR for GA removal. 2001:4455:688:E800:E0A6:B0D8:EFAA:390A (talk) 13:11, 24 November 2022 (UTC)

Damn. That's an article time sure forgot about. I'll def take a look at it. Thank you, anon. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  22:13, 26 November 2022 (UTC)

IP user

Hey there, I'm reaching out as you also left a message at this user's page. Honestly, I don't really get how multiple IPs work and I'm not sure where to go from here.

As I'm sure you're aware, this user makes edits to BLPs that are unsourced, non-neutral (puffery), and adding unnecessary detail (i.e., over-long captions and section headers, game scores, inconsequential and uncited milestones). It happened again today at Carey Price – see diffs here and here.

In my opinion, their edits aren't all that helpful and often violate some sort of policy or guideline. They have not responded to repeated advice and warnings left at several other IPs. Any thoughts? Wracking ^💬 17:24, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Wracking:, I can put together an ANI case. I really did not want to. Some of the edits are somewhat helpful, but there are a slew of MOS violations and unsourced additions as well. Thank you for the heads up and your effort on this part. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  18:20, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

Albert Wesker

I'm half way finished, but not sure how to implement this source for additional info at concept and design and reception section [11]. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 06:52, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

@GlatorNator: Sorry for the late reply. It looks good. I agree with adding the Polygon Eugenics source in the reception. If maybe the comment about the relationship to Eugenics/Nazism came from someone from Capcom, I'd add it to the design section. However since I think it belongs in reception section since it's more critical reception. The addition also well attributed to the author of the article in prose. Well done. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  17:14, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

I added the article to GAN and added you as well as a co-nom. Thank you for also helping on its concept abd design section. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 20:37, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

I think Wesker has scholarly sources/books talking about him, thou not sure how to find or view. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 13:09, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Hmm, I checked Google Scholar. I found this e-book, [12]. I'll see what else I can dig up. It's a bit harder to find for videogame characters. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  00:36, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, thou, not sure how to implement that book on his reception. Probably just having a hard time what to say since I'm not native enough in English. Portrayal section was already all implemented and I think the only problem with our article is the reception section that maybe looks a bit short. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 23:17, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

No worries. I'll try to add some reviews/commentary to the reception. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  15:24, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Thank you, didnt think that the Netflix film has some reception to add. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 17:59, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

No Prob. Even though the series was not good, a lot of critics liked Lance Reddick's performance. :) --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  18:30, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

I saw a lot of people reacting negative stuffs on Wesker being black, but having hard time to find a reliable source that talks about it somehow. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 18:36, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

That's a good point. I added an article from the directors of the show explaining why they went with Reddit and changed the character's race. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  18:57, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, I think the article is good. Thou, we could probably expand more on this source [13] but I dont have any idea what to say. =< GlatorNator (ᴛ) 22:06, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for overhauling the concept and design section. Thou, we still have unaource problem like motion capture of Ken lally and craig were unaourced in the infobox and portrayal section. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 01:00, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

NP, I found an RS from IGN to confirm Ken. The RE4R credits list Craig as "full performance capture", which I believe means facial and body.[14]. I can use the credit roll as a source. His resume seems to back that up.[15], but that is a self-published source and likely cannot be used on its own. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  02:32, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Yeah, thats our problem, maybe we can leave it as unsource to infobox hut doesnt need to implement it at the portrayal sec (Fumihiko Tachiki is also unsourced somehow). GreenishPickle! (🔔) 04:34, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Some editor said that we can cite credits if they were mentioned. but, idk how. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 04:40, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

I found an article for Tachiki via Famitsu that says he voiced Wesker throughout the series. I think Famitsu is a RS. To find I actually had to search "wesker" and "Fumihiko Tachiki" in Japanese. So it was a bit tricky. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  17:51, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

Noice. Famitsu is indeed a good source. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 22:40, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

RE: Thanks

I'm pretty sure the Fact-tagging fellow an IP I ticked off somewhere, but thank you for helping out.-- Kung Fu Man (talk) 00:49, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

No prob. I think another user and I ran into him while trying to get Albert Wesker to GA. I will try to source the rest when I get a chance. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  01:03, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Seems to be simiar IP who keep adding fact template at infobox when unsourced. They often edit most of the RE characters. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 04:30, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

Is this source usable btw [16]? 2001:4455:650:A900:C8E1:242:3279:5D03 (talk) 12:18, 19 July 2023 (UTC)
