May 2020 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Harvey Kurtzman's editorship of Mad, 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. Thank you.

Questioned Change edit

r Hello, you had tagged the following as original research, asking for a citation. The addition to the page was simply linking facts from the existing Al Feldstein page, noting a retirement of 1985, and the restart of contributions to Mad by the Kurtzman/Elder team as documented in the various contribution sources. The addition is not meant to imply that the new contributions by Kurtzman and Feldstein's retirement were linked; there may well be, but such a statement would of course need a citation.

If the two events are not linked and merely a coincidence, and if there's no source which says anything about it, then it's "interesting trivia" which, however, probably does not go on WP. I have restored the text with the citation properly placed. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 17:30, 21 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
