The reference took information verbatim from Wikipedia, including edits I myself have made about the scripts. Doesn’t meet the criteria for a reference Foreverknowledge (talk) 10:57, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose you did not check the reference. Mentioned citation very clearly mentioned this. Jabirttk351 (talk) 11:00, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
