Re:unsourced

Hi, we have pretty strict rules when it comes to birth and death dates for real life people. All birth/death dates must be sourced on the page, not merely in an edit summary. Proper sources must be used (see Tardis:Valid sources), and wikipedia is not one of them.

Also, we have in-universe pages and real world pages. The dates you put on Stan Lee were in the in-universe section of that page, so the only sources allowed there would be actual stories (see Tardis:In-universe perspective and Tardis:Valid sources).

We made a decision as a community to not allow any birth or death dates of real people if they aren't properly sourced. You can read the reasoning at Forum:Removing ages from actor pages and Thread:177648.

That's not the point: I understand that i did a mistake in HOW i made the edit. But it is highly impolite to a newbie (and you know that I am ) to simply undo an edit in such a way. The usual way in many wikis in the world ist to correct the mistakes and leaving a message saying "Take a look, this page looks like this now, in this wiki we do it like this and like that." That's what i would have expected, and thats what I do to an newbie.

Thats the reason why I quit. You cannot believe that someone who is new here is able to know all of your strikt rules (which are even more strikt than wikipedia). You can take a newbie by the hand, explain in a polite way why he does something wrong. But not the way you did. That is simply arrogant. --Rübenbrei ☎ 06:05, November 13, 2018 (UTC)

In-universe perspective

Hi, just explaining why I undid your edit at Wedding, Berlin. If you read T:IU, you'll see that all articles are written in the past tense, regardless if they still exist in the real world. I hope this helps, and happy editing :) Danochy ☎ 09:04, June 4, 2020 (UTC)

Hy, thanks for explaining:) *sigh* it s getting complicated for a part-time-user to avoid mistakes like that. Good to know this for future, Jelly baby? :) --Rübenbrei ☎ 09:19, June 4, 2020 (UTC)
