Hello, I'm MichaelMaggs. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Cards on the Table, 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. ''This is your own literary analysis of the text, which can't be accepted without a reliable source.

 * What is a reliable source for you? In the article, it is mentioned that in Hindi, his name means "the naughty one", which is: 1. irrelevant to the novel, 2. not supported by any citations. What kind of "reliable source" supports this claim, so that I can emulate it?
 * I stated the following:
 * In Arabic, “Shaitana” means “she-devil”. It is the feminine form of the Arabic word for the devil, "Shaitan". The name is an apt description of the character, who is described more than once as “Mephistophelian” as well as “queer”. It is also mentioned in the novel that Shaitana “has relatives in Syria”.
 * What part of this is unreliable? The Wikipedia article which mentions the Arabic word for the devil? My literal quotations from the novel?
 * What more sources are needed? 2603:7081:5D07:E706:E1A3:57C4:4B0F:C40 (talk) 23:15, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, the type of source needed is defined at reliable sources. I've added a citation to Collins Dictionaries myself, so there's no need to do anything else. Regards, MichaelMaggs (talk) 05:26, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
