Citing sources[edit]

When communicating with other editors, please do so on their talk pages, not their user pages, as you did to mine.[1] As for your question, I assume you are referring to my reversion of this. As i indicated in my edit summary,[2] tv.com is not a reliable source. Only reliable sources can be used as references. --AussieLegend () 10:44, 4 August 2013 (UTC)Reply[reply]
