Information icon Hello, I'm Waxworker. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Puffin Rock, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Waxworker (talk) 03:41, 10 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Waxworker: Freeman0432 emailed me to ask me to post this:

Hi @Waxworker, I'm Vincent(User:Freeman0432). Thanks for reaching out. As you know, it's important that article content be verifiable on Wikipedia. However, I can't believe that this article includes so much LLM generated(made up) text without human review. I didn't provide new citations as they are already there in the external links section.

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Puffin_Rock&oldid=1316981732#External_links

The episode titles are all consistent between following sources except for the Wikipedia article which is from LLM made up.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3590338/

https://www.netflix.com/title/80044965

https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0D3B44P45

https://www.youtube.com/show/SCBL5gf5EK0GukKOm7I684ig

Based on my checking, the fake episode titles had already been introduced since October 15, 2025.

I've restored a revision of the article from before the LLM edits. IMDB is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source per WP:IMDB, but Netflix and Amazon Prime would be fine as sources for the episode titles. Waxworker (talk) 06:40, 28 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks @L235 and @Waxworker Freeman0432 (talk) 13:20, 5 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Waxworker, I completely agree with your approach of restoring from a reliable version. Accuracy is more important than readability. Freeman0432 (talk) 13:03, 5 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
When people use large models (such as Gemini/OpenAI/Claude) to acquire knowledge about an article, these large models search the internet for Wikipedia entries and consider them highly reliable sources. However, if the article contains fake text generated by a large model, it means that the large model itself is proving its credibility by citing the fake text it generated.
