User talk:MelbourneStar - Wikipedia

This user is busy in real life and may not respond swiftly to queries.

You removed some of my work from Wikipedia page Jai Shri Ram, by giving a reason that I cannot use YouTube video link as a reference.

But according to WP:VIDEOREF, it was a fair use.

Was the video uploaded to internet by the original producer? -yes

Is it used for information? -yes

Is it to be used as a reference? -yes

Is it original producer a reliable source? -well absolutely,as they themselves made that movie.

Will it improve the article? -Ofcourse

Information I added: In 1957 movie named Ram Hanuman Yuddhaa "Jai Shri Ram" is clearly audible.

Reference i gave: [[1]]

The video in the YouTube link is the movie Ram Hanuman Yuddhaa (1954) uploaded by it's original producer (i.e Ultra Films).

What else would be the better citation than giving the link to original movie with timestamp where the given word "Jai Shri Ram" is spoken.

Moreover, the movie is older than 60 year, hence now in public domain would it be okay if just trim that part from movie and upload on Wikimedia and then cite here? AbhishekSaini1910 (talk) 17:46, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I concur with everything that has already been said in the article's talk page discussion on this, re use of a primary source (versus a reliable secondary/independent source). That video provided I actually don't have access to (it may be geo-restricted - I'm in Australia - but I don't know that for sure). It's good that you're discussing your edits.

Hi MelbourneStar,

sorry for contacting you here but I am currently trying to create an article about Jo Lindner. I read about your discussion to keep Aziz/Zyzz on the platform and I see myself getting into the same issues of notability or being accused of being a fan boy.

Would you have a look at my article whether you have an idea what would break notability - any help is appreciated. Thank you for your time and help! MarvDj (talk) 11:35, 13 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
