[edit] Your recent edits to Days of our Lives articles

It is considered vandalism to remove complete sections of an article as you did on the List of Days of our Lives cast members. The list is separate from the main article for a reason. Do not continue to edit in such a manner, removing sections as you did. It will be reported. CelticGreen (talk) 14:48, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

Drnorth, I'm sure your readdition of the cast lists was in good faith, but they were moved to separate articles because of their length and to keep the main Days article more stable. Cast lists for soaps change so often that this is a common procedure for larger and better-developed soap articles (and other series, for that matter). In an article's quality assessment, frequent edits/updates and the inclusion of lists reflect badly on overall quality. In the future you should not be surprised (or get mad) to be reverted or reprimanded when making such a large change without discussion. Thanks for your understanding. — TAnthony^Talk 01:43, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Drnorth16, dayscafe is a fan site, not a reliable source. Your edits have been reverted as no reliable magazine or official soap site has Kristen listed on contract, including the most recent editions of SOW and SOD on news stands now.CelticGreen (talk) 00:33, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Soap character pages

The lists at the bottom of the soap characters are being removed from the bottom and incorporated into the infobox per WP:SOAPS. If you have any questions as to why your edits were reverted, please see the project page with questions. Most of the answers can be found there. CelticGreen (talk) 00:40, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lexie Carver

Your edits to the Lexie Carver page violate both WP:V and WP:CRYSTAL. As per an editor familiar with WP:V and WP:CRYSTAL; For those who aren't familiar, I'll just give a summary introduction and you can go and check the policy yourself.

In short, we never put stuff that "may not be true" into an article. We write only verifiable statements that are attributable to reliable sources. We don't, therefore, carry spoilers and other speculative material about unbroadcast TV shows. We're an encyclopedia, not a gossip site, and we can easily afford to wait a week or so for the episode to be broadcast.

Additionally, when you revert, you must list a reason that complies with Wikipedia policy. Your reverts reflect your personal opinion, not policy.KellyAna (talk) 03:21, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
