I'm adding a copy of the discussion I had with Hall Monitor today and would be interested in other people's opinions on this matter. <KF> 20:11, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The unreferenced Marika Rökk[edit]

Hi, what references exactly would you like to see added to the Marika Rökk biography? The IMDb? Rökk's birth certificate, proving that she was actually born in Cairo? Her daughter's birth certificate, showing that she was her biological daughter? Any random film encyclopaedia in one slim volume where all those data are in turn "unreferenced" because they have been copied from some older source? Is this part of a new Wikipedia fad?

My questions may sound (a) cynical and (b) rhetorical, but I assure you they are neither. All the best, <KF> 19:03, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello KF and thank you for contacting me regarding the {{unreferenced}} tag which was recently placed atop the Marika Rökk article, your questions are welcomed. One of the cardinal rules and official policies of Wikipedia is no original research, and along with that is WP:CITE, which suggests that editors should cite sources for their edits wherever possible. This is longstanding tradition and not a fad, I assure you.  :) As far as what sort of references to add, a birth certificate is not necessary, but a link to IMDb and any other sources used to create the article would be sufficient. This allows future editors to check the work of the article for any factual inaccuracies and possibly build from the reference material supplied. I hope this answers your questions, should you run into any other issues please do not hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Hall Monitor 19:26, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hitler was a fan[edit]

KGB spy[edit]

A german newspaper has found recently that Marika was actually a KGB agent, I think that is interenting.--62.43.224.147 (talk) 19:50, 23 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That was briefly introduced into this article in February this year, and then removed as fake news; see this article in Die Welt (in German). -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 04:21, 24 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
