Chop suey

Thank you for your contributions to the chop suey article. I've edited them fairly heavily to help them conform to Wikipedia's editorial principles and guidelines. One of our important principles is Reliable Sources. Many people have written things about chop suey, but we need to separate the good sources from the weak sources. For example, a newspaper article reporting on what a New York Chinese restaurant owner says in 1980 about the origins of chop suey is not a reliable source about the history of chop suey -- though it might be a reliable source for what New York Chinese restaurants served in 1980. Also, we avoid personal opinions and original thoughts (the policies are called WP:NPOV and WP:OR) and try to write in a professional, encyclopedic style.

You might also want to look at Wikipedia:Cheatsheet and Help:Citations quick reference for formatting information. Again, thanks for your contributions, and welcome to Wikipedia! --Macrakis (talk) 03:06, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Also, the style and tone of your edits were entirely wrong. You used phrases like "I happened to have in my bag" and "wonderful tale"...these are not neutral, and sound like a travel article, not an encyclopedic summary. What might help at this point is if you went to Talk:Chop suey and tried to discuss some of the sources you think could be added, and we can help evaluate them and revise your prose if the info is valid.

Copy-and-pasting blogs into the chop suey article

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions to the Chop suey article, but for legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted.

You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later, and under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribute Share-Alike."

You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question at the "Help Desk". You can also leave a message on my talk page. --McGeddon (talk) 18:24, 11 September 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 6

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Daisy Betts, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Last Resort (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Use of IMDB as a source

Per long-standing consensus IMDB does not meet Wikipedia's reliable sourcing criteria for personal info in biography articles - you can read more about this here and here. Please do not add or change biographical data (such as birthdates) based on IMDB information. --Jezebel'sPonyo^{bons mots} 20:37, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

March 2014

Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Wikipedia about living persons, as you did to Saeko. Thank you. DAJF (talk) 14:15, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
