Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

I noticed your recent edit to Just Dance Kids 2 does not have an edit summary.&#32;You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Tacyarg (talk) 22:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Shrek (franchise), 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. That said, happy 1,000 edits! DonIago (talk) 16:08, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited XDefiant, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Twitch. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:08, 12 December 2023 (UTC)

Dates in Use templates
Hello. I noticed that you recently updated the dates in the "Use ..." templates on several draft articles. While I appreciate the effort to keep these up to date, kindly refrain from doing so randomly and for no apparent reason, and especially without making any other substantive changes. Doing so meaninglessly clogs up editors' watchlists without much, if any, benefit to readers and other editors. Thank you. InfiniteNexus (talk) 01:40, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

Luis and the Aliens
The anon (now blocked) before you made a number of film articles to appear to have been made in France. I undid the anon's and your edits as they were intermingled. Just letting you know. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 03:57, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi, The Media Expert. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged for speedy deletion,  because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the new tutorial for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks! 2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:98C5:A273:98F2:4560 (talk) 22:32, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Declined speedy deletion of Draft:The Pagemaster (film)
I have declined your speedy deletion request for Draft:The Pagemaster (film) as no reliable sources is not a valid speedy deletion criteria. Please read and understand the criteria for speedy deletion before tagging any more pages for speedy deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 23:00, 29 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Hello, The Media Expert,
 * And I have declined your second inaccurate CSD tagging. Do not tag any more pages for speedy deletion until you review WP:CSD as you don't seem to know what the criteria are. They are very specific and limited and are different for different namespaces. You can not just tag a page "Delete" and make up your own reason. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 03:10, 1 March 2024 (UTC)


 * I notice that there are at least 3 notices on your User talk page about this same issue. Please do not tag any more pages for speedy deletion until you've done your homework. This could start becoming disruptive. Inappropriate deletion tagging is just wasting other editors and admin's time. Liz Read! Talk! 03:12, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. ''Please be careful about adding information without a source. Everything added to Wikipedia must be supported by reliable sources. See WP:V.'' adamstom97 (talk) 09:15, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Please provide summaries for your edits
Like the previous topic above, I’ve noticed that the majority of your edits do not contain an edit summary. Per H:FIES, 'you are required to provide one for all'' of your edits, even if they’re marked as minor. '''Please avoid leaving your edit summaries blank in the future - even a brief indication is better than none, and it’ll go a long way towards preventing unwanted reverts or potential conflicts with other editors. Thanks, ‍ Masterofthebrick  ‍ talk  12:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Hey Media Expert, FYI if you go to your preferences you can have Wikipedia remind you when you haven't provided an edit summary. - adamstom97 (talk) 14:49, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Overlinking of common terms
Hello Media Expert, I noticed you added a link to London at Venom: The Last Dance after I reverted it previously. It is best advised, as a courtesy, to not manually reverse an edit once you see it has been undone, and best to explain your edits in WP:edit summaries as others have directed you toward above. Links to well-known places such as London are unnecessary as they qualify as common terms. Per WP:OVERLINK, London should not be linked "if the context rules out London, Ontario", which in this case, it does. If you are unsure of what links may be deemed common, there is a command script you can locate at User:Ohconfucius/script/Common Terms and implement in your user script here to automatically add it as a sidebar option when editing. This will automatically remove any common terms that are overlinked. Hope this helps! Trailblazer101 (talk) 21:13, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Produced vs released credits
The article at Walt Disney Pictures is pretty clear that they produce live-action films and the only thing they do for animated films is release them under their banner. Basically the only thing they do is add the standard Disney film branding at the start and end of the animated film and for that they get a "presents" credit as shown by the billing block of the animated films they release. They don't do any actual production activities and Disney's animation studios get the production credit. Most of Disney's animated film articles are created by modifying copies of existing articles so the forms of the credits get propagated even when not supported by actual film credits or the billing block. I commented on the issue at. I would like to see this issue fixed going forward. Geraldo Perez (talk) 00:03, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Inside Out 2 is actually 2nd place.
It already passed KFP4 and GXK. Please fix that. Evyatar Olami (talk) 16:53, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Studio vs. Production companies in film template
My understanding from going through the talk page for the infobox film template was that sometime in the past they decided to change the display name, attribute name and description from Studio to Production companies to better match what they wanted to go in that attribute. They left Studio as a synonym so as to not break all the existing articles that used it. Current documentation for the template permits both but suggests using "Production companies".
