 | Welcome to Keivan.f's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply. I will try to WP:PING you as well. Conversely if you are replying to something I've said on another talk page, reply there and include {{ping|Keivan.f}} to alert me. |
 | Please don't template me! Everybody makes mistakes, and this user finds user warning templates impersonal and disrespectful. If there's something you'd like to say, please take a moment to write a comment below in your own words. |

New book
[edit]@Keivan.f Will you be buying Catherine's latest biography (out on 6 August) and written by Robert Jobson? If not, how do you intend to access its pages at the earliest? Looking forward to your response. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 03:46, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- Most likely purchase. I prefer hard or even paper covers to online versions so that's what I opt for. You can order the book on many platforms, including Amazon. Keivan.fTalk 03:54, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Keivan.f Can you share yours with me? You see that I am still not even a full teenager so I have to ask my parents prior to purchasing. If you could share the images of the pages , it could be great and more economical than both of us purchasing it. Looking forward to your response. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 04:26, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- I understand. But scanning those pages requires an additional amount of time which for me is hard to find these days for various personal/professional reasons. I don't even know when I'll have time to actually read the book myself, but I'll see what I can do for you. In the meantime, try finding an online version (could be on Amazon or some place else), which is probably cheaper and more affordable for you or your parents; not to mention the quality which is going to be much better than a mere image/scan.

- @Keivan.f It's not urgent. If you can find the time, please do send the pages as the free versions will take a few months atleast before they are accessible on the web. Looking forward to your response. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 18:37, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
- As I said earlier I'll try. It's just that I'm buried under multiple assignments at the moment that I cannot really devote time to any extra activities. Hopefully you'll get your hands on the book sooner rather than later. Keivan.fTalk 18:28, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

Plots and summaries
[edit]@Keivan.f I ask this only because you have been working on articles related to film and entertainment for quite some time now. Is providing full plots and summaries not considered a violation of WP:OR because you will never find reliable sources (only self-published ones at most) on the web related to plots and summaries of films, television series, and books? Looking forward to your response. Regards. MSincccc (talk) 17:19, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
- It depends. You have to bear in mind that there is not a ban on using primary sources but they are to be set aside when secondary ones are available. With regards to plot summaries you can use WP:PLOTSUM as a guideline. It should not be excessively long and it should be in your own words. Keivan.fTalk 18:28, 25 July 2024 (UTC)
