Reversion on George W Bush
Just wondering why my expansive edits on Bush's page got reverted? I gave some early life while keeping it to a minimum but everything i added was AC-sourced. VilkaIsBack (talk) 07:35, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
- You added too much information drawn from external sources. Our practice is to permit that when it comes to articles directly dealing with historical events, when necessary to provide basic information about that subject, and when necessary to plug in gaps in the writing that appear when using only Assassin's Creed sources. Paragraphs about George Bush's early life and political career do not qualify for any of those criteria, and you were sourcing them to Wikipedia, not an Assassin's Creed source.

- His early life can be deleted then. but my external sources were giving exposition on the images. the photo of him on the USS Abraham Lincoln i used external sources to explain the story behind it, same with his picture on the magazine asking if was gonna run as governor again, AC sourced (The Fall 1) and external source to give exposition. Plus I also added the stuff in 2012 about the Rifts, AC sourced. VilkaIsBack (talk) 08:00, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

- Hey Vilka, I have double-checked your edit, and you were right. Some of your additions are pertinent to Assassin's Creed. My bad for not looking over it more clearly the first time. Sol Pacificus(Cyfiero) 02:19, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Jing Ke
Hello Sol,
I've noticed you seem to have your own big project page/sandbox, where you use Sima Qian's Record to elaborate on Jing Ke's life and legacy. Looking at Jing Ke's page, though, it is effectively a stub, as he is only mentioned in passing in Dynasty. Isn't your extensive biography on him—which I will say is great work on your part—beyond the scope of the "no original research" clause? I realize I may sound like I am trying to "gotcha!" you, but I am simply confused why so much information is coming outside his Wikipedia page. I believe you had said WP is to be used in passing for minor supplementary refs, right? – Darman (talk) 22:45, 26 January 2024 (UTC)
