@SemGradenwitz: I disagree with your recent unsourced changes. Also, you've added an image to the infobox which I believe has been inappropriately uploaded to Commons and will likely be deleted. If you continue to edit war you will be blocked. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:28, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

@Another Believer: Hi! Thank you for pointing out that I uploaded the picture of Kiara wrongly. However, the changes I made are 100% correct since Kiara and I have spoken many times, she publically posted her birth date on Twitter and most of this information is from the Drag Race Fandom page. Could you explain to me why i inappropiately uploaded that image? I did not mean to start an edit war, sorry for that. ---SemGradenwitz (Talk) 20:40, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

SemGradenwitz, Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons host free content, so you cannot simply take pictures from the internet and upload here or Commons. Also, information here must be appropriately sourced, so while the changes you've made may be true, you must provide proof so other editors can verify, otherwise your edits will continue to be reverted. For any changes you make, please provide reputable sources such as newspaper articles, magazines, journals, etc. Social media is generally discouraged but can sometimes be used for things like birthday confirmations, etc. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:44, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Another Believer, I didn't know that pictures from social media are not suitable for Wikipedia or Commons. Is it okay if i revert the changes without the picture, but add sources if I find them? Is the Drag Race Fandom Wiki page also a good source? Since I'm new to Wikipedia and figured it'd be nice to update a few things. ---SemGradenwitz (Talk) 21:54, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
SemGradenwitz, No, Drag Race Fandom Wiki is not an appropriate source. We generally use journalistic sources like newspapers, books, magazines, etc. Keep in mind, Wikipedia biographies are summaries, we don't need to include every little detail until sourcing allows. Again, you can ask here if you have specific additions and sources in mind. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:59, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Another Believer, Thank you very much for clearing things up and informing me on how everything works! Maybe its better if we keep it like it was! Have a nice day/night (wherever you're from haha) ---SemGradenwitz (Talk) 22:04, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
SemGradenwitz, Sounds good! I'm in PDX. If you're ever interesting on working on Drag Race articles, feel free to add Wikipedia:WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race to your watchlist or introduce yourself on the talk page. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:06, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
Another Believer, Great idea! I will definitaly look into that.---SemGradenwitz (Talk) 22:04, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
