 * I would just add something that most new editors might not know offhand, that Wikipedia disallows wikia &mdash; which anyone can edit, and in which they might say anything, correctly or not &mdash; to be used as a reference source. One example of such disallowed user-generated sites is IMDb. Theoretically, anything in IMDb is itself sourced from a journalistic, academic or corporate source. But since that's not always true and there's a lot of cinematic lore and legend that makes its way in, as well as prankster edits and other untruths, it's necessary to go to to a reliable source when citing. Thanks, and enjoy! --Tenebrae (talk) 21:32, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
