Hi there. I was making some changes to this article, and I saw that one source was from wikisource, and is apparently from The Dictionary of Australian Biography. Your first edit said you pasted from that source. I'm not really familiar with how that site works, but is that not considered a copyright violation? I guess I'm just wondering how wikisource works, and since it looks like you use it a lot, maybe you could give me a quick explanation. Thanks. —Torchiest talkedits 18:34, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, never mind. I think I just figured it out.  That source is more than a hundred years old, heh. —Torchiest talkedits 18:35, 3 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Yep, thanks for the question, and you are correct, the work is old, which is exactly why I am (slowly) reproducing the work over at enWS. For the how and what for enWS see s:Wikisource:What Wikisource includes. — billinghurst  sDrewth  04:25, 4 June 2012 (UTC)

Your guidance
Hello Billinghurst, Thank you indeed for your guidance. The choice of words in my edit may have been a little unfortunate and I am pleased that you took the time to point this out. Regards, Red Hammer of Truth (talk) 13:01, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

Possible socking incident
Hello B. I noticed that you blocked which was a SPA adding EL's to his website to various H.C. Anderson article. It looks like he has returned as. I have already removed the links but I thought that I would make you aware of this anyway. Who knows how persistent this person may become but I will try to keep an eye on things. Thanks for your time. MarnetteD | Talk 16:26, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

 * Update. Favonian has blocked the two that I have listed above. I also put in a RFPP on a couple of the articles that he was hitting. Enjoy your weekend. MarnetteD | Talk 21:39, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

YouMovie Awards
Why do you say that the sources are not authoritative? Why do you continue to undo changes in the movies? 80.117.217.51 (talk) 15:25, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Can you demonstrate that they are authoritative, from where is the information sourced ... External links and Citing sources is the guidance here. — billinghurst  sDrewth  15:39, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
 * In Italy Cineblog, Film & Dvd and Il cinemaniaco, are authoritative. I'm italian! In italian wikipedia these sources are very used... You can see in this page... 79.56.177.106 (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
