Towelie
Hi. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for working to improve the site with your edit to Towelie, as we really appreciate your participation. However, the edit had to be reverted, because Wikipedia cannot accept unsourced material or original research. This includes material lacking cited sources, or obtained through personal knowledge or unpublished syntheses of previously published material. Wikipedia requires that all material added to articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable sources explicitly cited in the text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here. Material lacking these sources is not permitted. If you have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks. :-) Nightscream (talk) 23:42, 17 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Please do not add original research to articles as you did with this edit to Towelie. As I informed you above, material based on "personal observation" is called original research, and is not permitted. All material added to articles must be supported by reliable, published sources. Basing edits on personal observations is not permitted. Please familiarize yourself with these policies if you intend to edit here. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 09:28, 18 February 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi. I noticed you added imdb as a source for your addition. Unfortunately, sites with user-generated content like imdb cannot be used as sources under IRS. I also notice that you added another reference that says, "Can be seen if film and episode have both been watched". This is not a proper reference. As I already stated twice above, personal observations constitute original research, and are not permitted on Wikipedia. If you continue to make attempts to add original research to the article, you will be blocked. Please stop adding that material, and learn about the policies and guidelines governing how to edit here. Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 20:23, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
