25px|alt=Information icon|link= ↗ Hello. Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia ↗.

{{The edit-summary field|new=y}}

I noticed your recent edit to :Just Dance Kids 2 ↗ does not have an edit summary ↗. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief ↗.

'''Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make.''' With a Wikipedia account ↗ you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting {{myprefs|3|check=Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary}}.
Thanks!{{sp}} Tacyarg (talk) 22:15, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Dates in Use templates

Hello. I noticed that you recently updated the dates in the "Use ..." templates on several draft articles. While I appreciate the effort to keep these up to date, kindly refrain from doing so randomly and for no apparent reason, and especially without making any other substantive changes. Doing so meaninglessly clogs up editors' watchlists without much, if any, benefit to readers and other editors. Thank you. InfiniteNexus (talk) 01:40, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

The anon (now blocked) before you made a number of film articles to appear to have been made in France. I undid the anon's and your edits as they were intermingled. Just letting you know. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 03:57, 12 January 2024 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, The Media Expert. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged for speedy deletion ↗, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the new tutorial for patrollers ↗, criteria for speedy deletion ↗, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria ↗. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion ↗ or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons ↗, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion ↗. Thanks!  2601:5CC:8300:A7F0:98C5:A273:98F2:4560 ↗ (talk) 22:32, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Declined speedy deletion of Draft:The Pagemaster (film)

I have declined your speedy deletion request for :Draft:The Pagemaster (film) ↗ as no reliable sources is not a valid speedy deletion criteria. Please read and understand the criteria for speedy deletion ↗ before tagging any more pages for speedy deletion. -- Whpq (talk) 23:00, 29 February 2024 (UTC)

:Hello, The Media Expert,
:And I have declined your second inaccurate CSD tagging. Do not tag any more pages for speedy deletion until you review WP:CSD ↗ as you don't seem to know what the criteria are. They are very specific and limited and are different for different namespaces. You can not just tag a page "Delete" and make up your own reason.

::I notice that there are at least 3 notices on your User talk page about this same issue. Please do not tag any more pages for speedy deletion until you've done your homework.

March 2024

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Welcome to Wikipedia ↗. We appreciate your contributions ↗, but in one of your recent edits, 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 ↗. ''Please be careful about adding information without a source. Everything added to Wikipedia must be supported by reliable sources. See WP:V ↗.'' adamstom97 (talk) 09:15, 12 March 2024 (UTC)

Please provide summaries for your edits

Like the previous ↗ topic above, I’ve noticed that the majority ↗ of your edits do not contain an edit summary. Per H:FIES ↗, <b>you are required to provide one for <i>all</i> of your edits, even if they’re marked as minor. </b>Please avoid leaving your edit summaries blank in the future - even a brief indication is better than none, and it’ll go a long way towards preventing unwanted reverts ↗ or potential conflicts with other editors. Thanks, <span class="nowrap"><b style="border-radius:8px 4px;padding:0.5px;background:#DA291C;color:white">‍ Masterofthebrick </b> <sup><b style="color:gray;">‍ talk </b></sup></span> 12:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

:{{tps}} Hey Media Expert, FYI if you go to your preferences ↗ you can have Wikipedia remind you when you haven't provided an edit summary. - adamstom97 (talk) 14:49, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

Overlinking of common terms

Hello Media Expert, I noticed you added a link to London at ''Venom: The Last Dance ↗'' after I reverted it previously. It is best advised, as a courtesy, to not manually reverse an edit once you see it has been undone, and best to explain your edits in WP:edit summaries ↗ as others have directed you toward above. Links to well-known places such as London are unnecessary as they qualify as common terms. Per WP:OVERLINK ↗, London should not be linked "if the context rules out London, Ontario", which in this case, it does. If you are unsure of what links may be deemed common, there is a command script you can locate at User:Ohconfucius/script/Common Terms and implement in your user script here ↗ to automatically add it as a sidebar option when editing. This will automatically remove any common terms that are overlinked. Hope this helps! Trailblazer101 (talk) 21:13, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 24

Produced vs released credits

The article at Walt Disney Pictures ↗ is pretty clear that they produce live-action films and the only thing they do for animated films is release them under their banner. Basically the only thing they do is add the standard Disney film branding at the start and end of the animated film and for that they get a "presents" credit as shown by the billing block of the animated films they release. They don't do any actual production activities and Disney's animation studios get the production credit. Most of Disney's animated film articles are created by modifying copies of existing articles so the forms of the credits get propagated even when not supported by actual film credits or the billing block. I commented on the issue at {{slink|Talk:Inside Out 2|Production company credit}}. I would like to see this issue fixed going forward. Geraldo Perez (talk) 00:03, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Inside Out 2 is actually 2nd place.

It already passed KFP4 and GXK. Please fix that. Evyatar Olami (talk) 16:53, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Studio vs. Production companies in film template

My understanding from going through the talk page for the infobox film template was that sometime in the past they decided to change the display name, attribute name and description from Studio to Production companies to better match what they wanted to go in that attribute. They left Studio as a synonym so as to not break all the existing articles that used it. Current documentation for the template permits both but suggests using "Production companies".

April 2026

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ If you update a future event to say that the event happened, you need to cite a new source, dated after the event, that states that the event actually did happen. Otherwise, it's better not to update the event description simply because the date passed, because the event might have been cancelled or postponed. We don't want to spread misinformation. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:12, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

Mondo TV article restructure

I recently removed IMDB sources as it was an unreliable source and some of the sources on the Mondo TV ↗ article are seem to be dead & extinct sources on the Mondo TV article, so if there's time I need everyone's help to restructure the article and I gonna need help from you, too. ~2026-28155-19 ↗ (talk) 00:30, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

Bosko and Bruno ↗ moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Bosko and Bruno ↗. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because '''it needs more sources to establish notability'''.
I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page ↗.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Boynamedsue (talk) 08:04, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Disambiguated links

Just to let you know, editor The Media Expert, Viacom ↗ is now a disambiguation page ↗. So when you link to the company, the way you did at Looney Tunes ↗, please use:

Cartoons

@The Media Expert I've noticed your interest in archiving public domain cartoons on Wikimedia Commons. Can you help with uploading Famous Studios ↗ cartoons like Noveltoons ↗ and Screen Songs ↗? I recommend getting the Famous Studios Champion Collection Blu-Ray and uploading the high-definition remasters, especially that the two lost cartoons are only available in that collection. <span style="background-color: #F2CED4; padding: 2px 3px 1px 3px;"><span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS; color: RoyalBlue">Go D.

::@The Media Expert never mind, I found the films somewhere online.

Not Alone

Excuse me, I need help on a user who doesn’t understand around Eric Guillon’s work at Illumination ↗ for the draft Not Alone ↗. Wanted to make sure it stays like how Migration ↗ handled on it’s own page. ~2026-33078-81 ↗ (talk) 21:01, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

Sniffles Takes a Trip, title card.png

Hi, @The Media Expert! I got a bot notification that this image was orphaned. My kneejerk reaction was to assume I had forgotten to add it to the proper infobox so I did that. THEN my brain kicked in and I thought to check the article's history page.

Well, eep.

You had removed the image because Blue Ribbon reissues of Looney Tunes cartoons are copyrighted separately. I'm going to find the correct copyright holder, but I wanted to let you know why I returned the image. It wasn't an ego thing or any sense of fighting for anything. I appreciate your respect for copyrights, for Wikipedia, and the way you handled this. Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 21:19, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

:Well, I found the original copyright registration here ↗ and the 1968 copyright renewal here ↗.
:Could you point me to the specific talk page or project guideline where this Go D. Usopp's rule is documented? I want to make sure I fully understand the project's formatting standards for these classic cartoon entries so I can comply as I work through my editing tasks. Thanks for your help! Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 00:19, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
::It is on Go D. Usopp's talk page on Wikimedia Commons, @Oona Wikiwalker. The Media Expert (talk) 11:49, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
:::Thanks for that clarificaton, @The Media Expert. I looked at that page and I don't see a rule there that applies here. EVERYTHING on Commons has to be public domain, released under a CC-BY SA 4.0 license. Here on Wikipedia, copyrighted content can be used if very strict fair-use guidelines are closely followed. As far as I understand, I did that and I signified it by using the Non-Free Use Rationale template. Would you please identify which rule of Go D. Usopp's you were applying? I suspect one of us, or both of us, are mistaken here. Let's identify and rectify the mistake. That'll make both of us better editors! Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 20:49, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
:::@The Media Expert My mistake, only four shorts have known renewals for Blue Ribbon and this is not one of them, but the original film is still copyrighted. Also, non-free files on English Wikipedia are perfectly acceptable, and you should upload all non public domain title cards locally there. <span style="background-color: #F2CED4; padding: 2px 3px 1px 3px;"><span style="font-family: Comic Sans MS; color: RoyalBlue">Go D.

::::Don't worry about the mistake, @The Media Expert and @Go D. Usopp; all good-faith editors make them. But I'm still confused, because I didn't upload the image to Commons. I uploaded it here, to English-language Wikipedia, and used a non-free use rationale to explain why. Is there still an issue there that needs to be resolved?
