Shutter Island (film)
There are a bunch of things new editors need to be told about when they start editing. One is to always properly cite a reliable source for your edits, unless you are cleaning up obvious vandalism or copy-editing. Another one is WP:BRD, where, after your bold edit is reverted, to not revert the reversion, but rather, take it to the article's Talk page, and start a discussion. In this instance, you should have been warned about having to cite a reliable source, and, if you had used one, you wouldn't have needed to cut the sentence, but just rewrite it according to the source. Wikipedia is not something each editor gets to change to the way they see "the truth", because Wikipedia isn't the truth, it's a distillation of what reliable published sources have, independent of the subject, chosen to say about it. All the truth and knowledge we hold in our heads is insufficient for Wikipedia. It's called original research. Unless it matches what reliable sources have already said, this crowd-sourced encyclopedia cannot use it.--Quisqualis (talk) 02:28, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
