Thin Man

Hi, would you be able to revert my edit on The Thin Man. I see that you say it is "original research", but I am a researcher with both Internet Archive and Duke Law's Center for the Study of the Public Domain. This is ending song is verified by me. If it works better elsewhere on the page then we can put it there. Best, SDudley (talk) 15:14, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Wikipedia is a tertiary source, which means that it summarises already published material. What you're looking for is a secondary source, like a magazine or journal, to publish your observation in. DonQuixote (talk) 16:34, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Ok thanks! I’ll work on getting that done. SDudley (talk) 16:46, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

WIkiProject Doctor Who: June 2025 Newsletter

The Space-Time Telegraph Volume III, Issue II — June 2025 Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who People assume that a newsletters are a strict progression of stuff happening to author's writing, but, actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of spacey-timey teley-graphy... stuff This is my Space-Time Telegraph Detector: 🕹️ It goes *ding* when there's a new newsletter out Welcome to the second 2025 issue of the Space-Time Telegraph. Apologies that we're a little late, sometimes this newsletter takes us when we need to go instead of when we want to go. In this edition you'll find everything that you need to keep you updated on things going on around the project as well as within the Whoniverse. Am I a good (or featured) man Wikipedia article? Since last Newsletter, many new GAs have been added to the Project. These include every individual episode in Doctor Who series 15 and a number of fictional characters, including Belinda Chandra, the companion of Series 15. A full list of Good promoted content can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Doctor Who#Articles with Good Article status. So far, we've promoted 33 GAs this year, and we're on track to beat our previous record of GAs promoted in a year (36 in 2012). In terms of Good Topics, Wikipedia:Featured topics/List of Doctor Who episodes (2005–present) and Wikipedia:Good topics/Doctor Who series 14 were both promoted in May. Additionally, with the promotion of Yeti (Doctor Who) to FA status just this past month, the project has gotten its first FA status article in nearly a decade, with the last FA promotion being From The Doctor to my son Thomas in November 2015. Congratulations to all involved with these articles, and keep up the good work!
