[edit] Doki Doki Panik
You asked about the trivia in the Doki Doki Panic page about the undumped hybrid between DDP and SMB2.
While I hadn't heard about it, it seems as if the user that added it was Donknotts on 04:28, 14 December 2006.
I assume that he must have information on it, so I asked him about it on his talk page.
I assume that your interested as well. Do you want to try to find out about this too? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Xensyria (talk • contribs) 16:55, 17 December 2006 (UTC).
- Yes, I would be very interested in knowing more about this. :) FamicomJL 20:24, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Faux Pause sources
You said: Hello, as you had stated in the AFD Faux Pause entry, the article would need soruces. However, there was an article, specifically this one: http://www.xanfan.com/hotpotato/fauxpause.htm, HOWEVER, IIRC, the person said it WASN'T a source...but wouldn't it be a source? Xanfan is considered a trustworthy game show writer...his website is filled with true factual information. My question is, wouldn't it be a true source, then? Thanks. FamicomJL 04:19, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
- The Xanfan source is technically a "source," but may not be considered to be a "reliable source" by most editors, according to the Wikipedia policy discussing reliable sources. If it was one source among many, it would be acceptable as a source for more information, but by itself it isn't enough to establish information. It looks like a blog website of some sort, and the attribution policy says this about that: "Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published . . . visiting a stranger's personal website is often the online equivalent of reading an unattributed flyer on a lamp post. For that reason, self-published material is largely not acceptable."
- You might want to check into searching the Google News Archives (which is a new function that Google recently introduced) with a search something like this: [1]. That way, you don't have to rely on archived press releases from GSN (which, incidentally, would be self-published primary sources, not secondary sources). Of course, most of the archived articles you'll turn up will be behind subscription firewalls. That doesn't stop you from citing them, as long as you're sure that they do in fact confirm the information you think they do.
- If you have sources in print form (books, newspapers, magazines), you can also cite those—Wikipedia doesn't rely entirely on web-based sources. See WP:CITE for instructions on how to do that correctly.
- I hope this info helps. Let me know if you have any more questions. —Carolfrog 04:47, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

- You said: Hello, I keep trying to put in the two sources, and it won't work, for some reason. What's the best and easiest way to add sources to an article? Thanks. Still a clueless newbie...FamicomJL 02:36, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

- Sorry I wasn't around to help the other day. It looks like you got it figured out, though. :) Let me know if you have any other questions, and I'll try to reply more promptly. ≈≈Carolfrog≈≈♦тос♦ 02:24, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
