Re:“Scenes Cut” Edit

Hi. Thanks for asking. There was a few major problems with your edit. First, you didn't respected the Headings policy. Second, you're addition of "(Citation Needed)" is unnecessary, since the page has already a warning header for this purpose ({{Citation}}). Also, when we want to point a lack of source at a specific point in an article, we use {{Fact}}. Furthermore, never add a section with "TBA", ever you provide the information, ever you don't, and expecting something is an assumption, and we don't deal with assumption. The biggest mistake (IMO) was the complete lack of formatting for the web citations you provided. We have a ton of template for this purpose, including the general {{Cite_web}}. Note that, per policy, you have to provide a backup link (see the internet citation templates). If there was only one or two mistakes, I would have corrected your edit instead of reverting it. But given the size of the edit, it was more sensible to revert it. I hope this will help you understand and improve. To conclude, here's my advice to every newcomer: take notice of the status articles, they are our best articles; but also look into the policies whenever you're wondering how to do something. And don't hesitate to ask experienced editors for advice on their talk page, or on Discord and IRC. NanoLuuke^{Cloning facility} 13:05, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Re:Peter Diamond Lightbulb Man

Thanks for providing those information, I was able to add it to the page. I understand that our way of adding reference can seems daunting to occasional editors, but in this case, it wasn't very complex, since the book as a page on Wookieepedia. All I had to do was to add <ref name="Inside Story">''[[I Am C-3PO: The Inside Story]]''</ref>. It get more complex when it comes to referencing website and documents from outside Star Wars publishing paradigm. I would recommend that you check our our tutorial (and it's more advanced version) to get a better idea on how to do things ;) . But if you have any question, feel free to ask me or any experienced editors ;) . --NanoLuuke^{Cloning facility} 17:44, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
