Stealth roller coaster
I saw you updated the dialogue under ride experience, but I have removed it altogether. In order to state the specific dialogue used on the ride, a reliable source is needed (note: YouTube is not acceptable unless its publisher is considered reliable). -- GoneIn60 (talk) 15:17, 27 June 2023 (UTC)


 * Would povs be acceptable, considering the fact that they are clearly recorded Dogman645 (talk) 15:28, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
 * A POV published by a reliable source, such as the park, would be acceptable. See WP:SPS for help understanding which self-published sources may be considered reliable. --GoneIn60 (talk) 15:42, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

I see you have revisited the article and tried to use Ride Sims 2.0 as a reliable source. Sorry, but that doesn't qualify as one. Please read Reliable sources carefully to understand how to properly identify reliability. A secondary source is typically preferred for this kind of claim. --GoneIn60 (talk) 15:23, 5 July 2023 (UTC)


 * The stealth on Ride Sims is licensed by thorpe park, so it should realistically be a reliable source Dogman645 (talk) 18:59, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it is reliable, but the preference is to use a source that describes the ride in prose. A video or some other kind of visual reference might be fine too if it's obvious in its description of the ride. Are you trying to use Ride Sims to support the dialogue that is spoken on the ride? Are we confident Ride Sims is 100% accurate? When was Stealth created on Ride Sims? Could it be out of date? These are all concerns about using Ride Sims as a source, because one thing that is tough to determine is the date the source was published. --GoneIn60 (talk) 03:59, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I honestly can't say I've ever seen a ride simulation / video game being used as a source on Wikipedia to describe something other than itself. --GoneIn60 (talk) 04:00, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Danners430. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, British Rail Class 483, 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. Danners430 (talk) 09:25, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
