Invitation to join New pages patrol
Hello Poirot09! Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:21, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
 * We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
 * Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
 * Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
 * If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Flynn Rider age
Hello Poirot09. Can you please elaborate on the undo on the Age section? Flynn's age is relevant to the character and story and the references are (1) the movie and (2) episodes of Rapunzel's adventure. Do we normally require a second reliable source? Thanks and keep up the good work. Magicthemes (talk) 16:31, 5 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Magicthemes Flynn's age is not relevant for his story, it's only mentioned in passing, and yes we usually require secondary reliable sources to decide what to include or not. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a collection of all facts about characters. Poirot09 (talk) 16:34, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Poirot09, Flynn's age becomes relevant as his story arc unfolds in the later episodes of Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure, which follow the movie. It's linked to his background and to his father, who reveals Flynn's age. Flynn is unaware of his age before this. Beyond the movie and episodes, what would be a reliable source? Thanks again.

 * @Magicthemes See WP:SECONDARY (basically an article from a reliable publication). Poirot09 (talk) 17:49, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the link, which states a reliable source is needed if the information is challenged or likely to be challenged. Since Flynn Rider’s age is stated clearly in the series episodes, after his confusion over his age, there’s no debate here. Even if a reliable source is needed, it is the work itself (i.e. the movie and 2 episodes) Magicthemes (talk) 00:14, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Max Miller (YouTuber)
Hi. You recently reverted my addition of Miller's Twitter, and the reason you gave was WP:NOSOCIAL. You seem to be an experienced user of this site so I wanted to clarify my misunderstandings. Doesn't the top of WP:NOSOCIAL say Except for a link to an official page of the article's subject, which is true for the Twitter page? But WP:ELMIN says to provide only one such link, which we already do in the infobox, so it is still correct to remove it. Mokadoshi (talk) 01:29, 11 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Mokadoshi An "official page" is generally understood as an actual website dedicated to the topic, not a social media page. Social medias have always been removed on Wikipedia in my experience. Poirot09 (talk) 06:29, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying! Appreciate it. Mokadoshi (talk) 20:19, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

Reversion of Il cielo in una stanza (song)
Hi, you recently reverted my addition to the 'Cover Versions' category of this entry. I am a very infrequent editor and I hope you can help me understand how to improve my effort to add a timely and interesting new use/cover of the song (in the Netflix series 'Ripley').

Thank you! Dashingjack (talk) 16:39, 6 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, you need to add a reliable source to verify the info. The video you added is not a reliable source (since it's user-generated) and doesn't reference the song's inclusion in the series. I see that another user has left a welcome template on your talk page, check that for more info if you wish to continue editing Wikipedia. Poirot09 (talk) 16:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
