Footnotes[edit]

Sorry for not noticing your edit summary at first, Kenny htv. The issue with this article (and 2016 SBS Drama Awards‎) is exactly providing the list of references at the top, rather than close to the material it supports as mandated by WP:CITEFOOT. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:45, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As for information that "weren't written in the news", don't include it. All material needs to be verifiable from published sources. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:46, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think that's not normal, Finnusertop. Comparing with other pages of this award ceremony from previous years, articles I have created and edited most have been provided sufficiently many sources. But why only my pages received this templates from you? Is it weird or not?

This is a page of a prize ceremony, so the main part is the nominees and winners, and I have already provided all sources for that. The rest, the presenters of each award and special performances were included in the video of the ceremony, they are not located on newspapers.

Just like in the television series or movies, the less famous actor or new actors take on the supporting roles, but they are not referring to the press, that means we can't add their names on Wikipedia? Because we can't provide the source? There are not rational when Wikipedia is seen as a huge dictionary, where the people can find in it everything they need. If necessary, people who want can find out the videos on the net, I saw not too difficult to access the internet and find the video, if they can go online to read Wikipedia, so they can do it easily.

I can't write on Wikipedia the video link from other websites because of two things, one, the Wikipedia is not the place to PR for a movie web page, and two, the videos are viewed as illegal because the countries like Korea are very seriously the issues of copyright, if I publish the link that I know, that link may be removed by the authorities, making some difficulties for those who do want to review this awards ceremony.

Whatever the case, Kenny htv, you should argue based on policies and guidelines, not other articles that may fail those policies. The policy is clear on this: "all material must be attributable to reliable, published sources" (Wikipedia:Verifiability).

There are things that Wikipedia is not, and depending on what you mean by a huge dictionary, that might be one of those things. The purpose is not to provide useful information, but to provide encyclopedic information. And that needs to take place within the confines of policy (including verifiability).

Why I tagged these two pages is because they were listed at User:AlexNewArtBot/KoreaSearchResult, which I monitor. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 17:00, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
