There are other things in List of fictional elements, materials, isotopes and subatomic particles that don't cite reliable sources.

Some of them don't cite any sources at all. --REDsEngineer (talk) 20:11, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

If you want to delete them, I won't stop you. DonIago (talk) 20:13, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
The rules are: This list contains fictional chemical elements, materials, isotopes or subatomic particles that either a) play a major role in a notable work of fiction, b) are common to several unrelated works, or c) are discussed in detail by independent sources. None of them say that I need a verifiable source to get them from. Oh and one of the ones that doesn't cite a source is Frinkonium, which CLCStudent wouldn't let me remove because it's apparently major. --REDsEngineer (talk) 20:41, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply
Ah, good point. Sorry, lost track of which article we were discussing. You're welcome to include information to establish that what you're adding satisfies those criteria, but don't ever use wikias in citations. WP:SPS is clear about that, and I believe you were talked to about that previously. Thank you. DonIago (talk) 20:50, 27 November 2018 (UTC)Reply

You are quite welcome. I had a few minutes and added a slightly different version with a citation to a report about the funeral. The report looks like a summary of the funeral before it occurred, but stated that the hymn was to be performed. I hope that is good enough for now. Later today I will see if I can find a news report about the funeral and add that to my citation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hugh59 (talkcontribs) 20:08, 5 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Eternal Father Strong To Save edit regarding funeral of former President Bush

Good day. While watching the funeral, I heard the hymn and looked at its article. I saw that the final entry in the "funerals" section described the funeral of Senator McCain. My edit was made within minutes of the event; hence there were not yet any online references. Now there are:

https://www.ajc.com/news/national/george-bush-funeral-live-updates-president-body-flown-air-force-one-washington/ZFY9H8bIvj90ddB713n3HI/

Merry Merry

Happy Christmas!
Hello Doniago,
Early in A Child's Christmas in Wales the young Dylan and his friend Jim Prothero witness smoke pouring from Jim's home. After the conflagration has been extinguished Dylan writes that

Nobody could have had a noisier Christmas Eve. And when the firemen turned off the hose and were standing in the wet, smoky room, Jim's Aunt, Miss. Prothero, came downstairs and peered in at them. Jim and I waited, very quietly, to hear what she would say to them. She said the right thing, always. She looked at the three tall firemen in their shining helmets, standing among the smoke and cinders and dissolving snowballs, and she said, "Would you like anything to read?"

My thanks to you for your efforts to keep the 'pedia readable in case the firemen chose one of our articles :-) Best wishes to you and yours and happy editing in 2019. MarnetteD|Talk 19:08, 18 December 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for the garishly red but otherwise delightful message. Seasons greetings to you as well! I eagerly anticipate our next argument agreement. :) DonIago (talk) 19:42, 18 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

V for Vendetta

Please look at my change (and the edit comment) more carefully.

As it stood (and again stands after your edit), the paragraph ends in mid-sentence, with a comma:

In the essay "Behind the Painted Smile",[11]

The rest of the sentence had been deleted in this edit by User:Czar. That's almost certainly an accident; surely an experienced editor didn't intend to leave a contentless sentence fragment in the article.

The original version was a complete sentence:

In the essay "Behind the Painted Smile",[11] Moore revealed that the idea was rejected as DC Thomson balked at the idea of a "transsexual terrorist". And it's already referenced: that [11] is "Moore, Alan (1983). "Behind the Painted Smile". Warrior (17)" (which does say exactly what the article is claiming). So, I just restored the missing rest of the paragraph as it was before Czar's edit. --157.131.170.189 (talk) 03:20, 2 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
If you're saying that the information you're adding is backed up by the source that comes before the information you added, then you should move the citation to properly reflect that. How would a casual reader understand that the citation applies to both parts otherwise?
If the citation does not back up the information that you're adding, then you should add a citation that will back up what you're adding. Hopefully this is clear enough. DonIago (talk) 03:37, 2 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
I understand reverting the first time, if you didn't pay attention to what you were reverting to, and didn't read the edit summary. But the second time? You can't honestly think a contentless half-sentence that ends a paragraph with a comma, and a reference that isn't attached to any facts, is better than the previous version of that section, can you? And you can't honestly think I was trying to add unsourced new information, rather than restore old information, after reading my comment above or the edit summaries, can you? I'm trying to AGF here, but I'm somewhat at a loss as to how to do so.
Fortunately, Czar—who presumably knew what he was intending to do when he accidentally truncated the sentence in the first place—came back and fixed it, so it's probably a moot point. --157.131.170.189 (talk) 04:39, 2 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
