Hello, I'm Throast. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sanjay Gupta, 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. Throast  { { ping }} me! (talk &#124; contribs) 16:39, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that I replaced the source for your recent addition to Sanjay Gupta, as IMDb is not a reliable source, especially for WP:BLP articles. See also WP:IMDB and WP:CITEIMDB. M16A3NoRecoilHax (talk) 17:34, 20 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I assumed IMDB was reliable since it takes from credits, but there are tons of citations. Some note Gupta as "executive producer" or "consultant," but that was not his credit. He was producer. Should I re-do the edit and add a different citation? Just starting to use wikipedia and learning my way around it all. Thanks. Naclhom (talk) 17:42, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I have already added a citation to replace the IMDb reference, so there is not a really a "need" to add a different citation. Regarding IMDb, yes, some information is directly taken from the credits, but much of IMDb is user-generated content, which is generally discouraged as a source. Especially when dealing with BLP, we should therefore strive to avoid using IMDb as a source, especially when other sources are readily available. I'm not read into the issue of what exact title he held for this documentary, so if you want to discuss that, you might want to take that to the article's talk page.
