Hello, I'm Jim1138. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Scarface (1983 film), but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Jim1138 (talk) 06:30, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Scarface (1983 film)
There is no "gatekeeper" per se. Nearly all Wikipedians are volunteers. You need to add reference(s) to your edits. Adding references is how we ensure that content is valid. Without references, a reader can not easily validate information and there is no presumption of accuracy. i.e. they will think the article is trash - and it probably is. See Help:Referencing for beginners and Help:footnotes. This is covered by the Wikipedia policy of wp:verifiability (WP:V). Please wp:cite your edits with wp:reliable sources (RS). Per WP:V unsourced content can be removed. Also, beware of wp:wikipuffery - If someone is the world's greatest, there is no need to call s/he as such. A reader would come away from reading a well-written article knowing so. Puffery is for wannabes; it's not needed for the real thing. You can ask questions, and get faster replies if you ask at the wp:teahouse. Hope this helps! Thank you Jim1138 (talk) 01:05, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
