25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style ↗ that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in :Chaim Peri ↗, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page ↗ to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-mos1 --> Augmented Seventh (talk) 06:56, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

:Which part of the edit was against the MOS ↗? The dates don't seem to violate MOS:DATEFORMAT ↗ and I removed curly ↗ quotations. Streetr4 (talk) 07:03, 13 June 2026 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Streetr4. After reviewing your request, I have <span class="plainlinks">enabled ↗</span> '''rollback ↗''' on your account. Please keep the following things in mind while using rollback:
I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, and feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate use of rollback. If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback ↗ (even though you're not an admin) and Wikipedia:Rollback ↗. Good luck and thanks! <span style="color:Purple;font-size:medium;font-family:Bradley Hand ITC">ASUKITE</span> ↗ 15:39, 23 June 2026 (UTC)

FYI: Burden



A heads-up, and I'm only mentioning it because you mentioned {{tqq|I would strongly disagree. I would say the responsibility lies on the person who removed the content to provide a reason why; which is what an edit summary is for}}: if we restore information (even by reverting), we are responsible for making sure it's sourced.

Put another way: when we revert content removal, we need to be able to defend the content we are readding as if we were the ones who wrote it in the first place. This idea is long-established and is codified in policy: WP:BURDEN ↗. Specifically the bold bit, {{tqq|The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material}}.

In general when someone unexplainedly blanks it ''can'' be indistinguishable from vandalism, but in certain cases (like removing a poorly-sourced date of birth) we typically don't revert unless we plan on adding a better source.

This trips up very nearly everyone who gets into recent changes patrolling. It tripped me up initially too. Just a heads-up :) <span style="opacity:.95;border:1px outset #6ED;border-radius:30% 0;background:linear-gradient(330deg,#96C,#6ED);color:#fff;padding:2px 5px"><b>tony</b></span> 22:08, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
:To add to the above, if reverting content removal without an edit summary was ''always'' appropriate, we could do it with a bot. We don't, because any edit, regardless of whether it has an edit summary, needs assessing against policy. It isn't uncommon to see edits by newcomers with no edit summary removing all sorts of inappropriate content - anything from simple vandalism to severe WP:BLP ↗ violations. By reverting this sort of thing, you aren't just restoring inappropriate content, you are making it much less likely to be checked by anyone else, since the edit history will show what looks like a revert by an experienced contributor. Check first, and only revert if you are confident you aren't reverting a legitimate edit. AndyTheGrump (talk) 22:48, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
::Yeah you both make fair points. I honestly didn't realize that it was over the source and I thought it was just the editors personal preference. I also didn't know IMDb was user-generated until recently. Thanks to both of you for giving me good criticism. Streetr4 (talk) 22:58, 29 June 2026 (UTC)
