Hello, I'm CommissarDoggo. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Gary Graver, 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. CommissarDoggoTalk?  14:42, 8 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello. Let me start by saying that I appreciate how someone is out there, making sure Wikipedia doesn't get filled with misinformation.
 * My name is Brian O'Sullivan, I am a First Assistant Director (primarily feature films) and I've worked with Gary Graver many times. Gary was a very good friend of mine.
 * https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0642733/
 * I added the content for Gary's Wikipedia-page because, while accurate, I wanted to publish his most well-known quote, as well as make public the other attributes of his professional character. Anybody who worked with Gary would know about his great quote, I wanted to share the memory of it with them, and introduce it to anyone else reading.
 * It's fair to say that I am the resource for that quote. Still, after reading the citation reference page, I don't know how to "cite" myself as the source. I would sure like to add my content to Gary's page. If my explanation isn't sufficient, I thank you for your time, all the same.
 * PS: While I thought I had an account set up beforehand, I was unable to access it just now; therefore, I created a new account today. My n eew username is Brianjosullivan. Brianjosullivan (talk) 15:32, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
 * You cannot use yourself as a source on Wikipedia unfortunately, due to the policies on original research. Wikipedia relies on citations from reliable sources for all information.
 * What you can do if you so wish is to do an interview with a reputable source or get this information published somewhere. Alternatively, you can find a reliable source for the information you're trying to add to the page.
 * Should you find a reliable source for this information, you may also find the policy for maintaining neutral speech useful, as what you added to the page initially seemed promotional in nature. CommissarDoggoTalk?  15:39, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
