Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Brian De Palma, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Vanity Fair. 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.)

A lengthy welcome
Hi ZanderAlbatraz1145. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily in collaboration.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

If you work from reliable, independent sources, you shouldn't go far wrong. WP:RSP and WP:RSN are helpful in determining if a source is reliable.

If you find yourself in a disagreement with another editor, it's best to discuss the matter on the relevant talk page.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Hipal (talk) 20:24, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Copying/moving content within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Edgar Wright into Edgar Wright's unrealized projects. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 20:17, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Del Toro's Frankenstein
Hello, I've redirected the page, that had been Prodded, to an existing draft. Please consider merging everything that's useful into the draft and editing the draft until better decisions are taken. If you wish to revert and rework on the page, I personally don't mind but then please leave a note on the draft's Talk page, and have a look at what you can merge from there so that duplicate work is not done. Best, - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  09:31, 4 February 2024 (UTC)


 * For the record, the redirect has been undone. Maybe just have a look at the draft; it is pretty advanced, though. I just wanted to help avoid any duplicate work. Also the working title seems to be Frankenstein not Dr. Frankenstein. - My, oh my!  (Mushy Yank)  18:32, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Nice draft. Tell them, jolly good work. ZanderAlbatraz1145 (talk) 18:58, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * This paragraph seems redundant and therefore unnecessary though:
 * "Del Toro was in pre-production on an adaptation of Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus in the late 2000s, with actor Doug Jones giving some details about the project in a 2020 interview, such as the design of the creature being influenced by the drawings of Bernie Wrightson. Jones attributed this version of the film's cancellation to Universal Pictures' attempted "Dark Universe".[13]" ZanderAlbatraz1145 (talk) 19:01, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Sure, feel free to edit the draft and remove this if you think that is so, and/or mention this on the talk page and/or to decide how the duplicate pages can be handled. I won't edit the page myself and had just deproDed and redirected the one you had created to let the content be merged in case that was useful. That's why redirected it but left a note and all your text. But all this was reverted and I won't edit either page for the moment. Best, - My, oh my! (Mushy Yank)  19:25, 4 February 2024 (UTC)

February 2024
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on Peter Bogdanovich. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Stop adding unimportant unreleased stuff. Binksternet (talk) 18:04, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.


 * Binky the milonguera strikes again! Why don't you go tango off a fucking bridge. ZanderAlbatraz1145 (talk) 20:15, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Please be civil when talking to other editors. Discuss the article content, but try and not discuss the editor. Further personal attacks may result in a block from editing.
 * Regards, — AP 499D25  (talk)  08:11, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Whoopsie. ZanderAlbatraz1145 (talk) 12:11, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at Michael Mann filmography. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. Picard&#39;s Facepalm (talk) 15:27, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
