March 2015[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Cirt. I noticed that you made a change to an article, No worries, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Cirt (talk) 22:48, 4 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but this http://qz.com/192475/how-no-worries-became-a-thing-surfers-crocodile-dundee-and-the-lion-king/ looks like a blog post by some guy, and fails WP:RS.

Please read:

  1. WP:RS
  2. WP:V
  3. WP:CITE
  4. WP:CIT
  5. WP:Article development

Hope that's helpful info,

Look at the video - direct quote from the movie. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Northrup49 (talkcontribs)
Unfortunately, that would be a primary source, not a secondary source, and therefore a violation of Wikipedia's policy on No Original Research. Can you find a secondary source for this info that satisfies WP:RS? — Cirt (talk) 03:24, 5 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
