Hello, I'm 81.2.123.64. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 81.2.123.64 (talk) 14:38, 28 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Lauren Parsekian, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Tacyarg (talk) 22:44, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for commenting and explaining the reason you reverted my edit, and yeah, it was my fault, I didn't read that part of the guidelines and I shouldn't have added user RT or IMDb scores. I always found it weird how other movie articles didn't include user scores, since I guess I've always trusted the scores of the average audience more than big critics articles who were paid to review as much media as possible, and I've never bothered to check why. I know this isn't the place to debate these kinds of things, but I thought I would explain why I made those edits. RGCanimation (talk) 22:57, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. So many rules and so little time, we all have to start somewhere (and the rules change too). If a movie has a Cinemascore or a Posttrak score or some other reliable source of audience response film articles use that instead. It is worth reading the CinemaScore article, audiences scores are always expected to skew more positive for various reasons such as self-selection bias. On rare occasions when reliable sources talk about a big difference between the audience score and the critics score you can then mention that there was a big difference, but even in those rare cases it is about the discrepancy, not the score itself specifically (but those exceptions are so rare that even then you should probably start a talk page discussion to gain consensus before adding). The box office gross also indirectly implies the audience liked it, but readers are left to make that inference on their own. -- 109.79.167.27 (talk) 20:49, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

i just wanted to let you know, i just wanted to help, but there is a problem of Mario’s page. In the Wikipedia search area, Mario shouldn’t be described as a fictional character, Mario would be described as like it was last year and January to August mostly 2024. That doesn’t seem nice for the whole world to see, and to prevent that from happening again, his article is such long as it continues for quite a whole book. 2605:8D80:521:4803:E8C6:55C5:828:4610 (talk) 18:56, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Thank you for letting me know, but why shouldn't Mario be described as a fictional character? Other video game characters are described as such. RGCanimation (talk) 13:58, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
