December 2016

Hello, I'm Dane2007. I noticed that in this edit to American classical music, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. -- Dane2007 ^talk 21:18, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

This redirect should be discussed prior to implementation as there is a large amount of content present. -- Dane2007 ^talk 21:20, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Atlantis. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Deor (talk) 18:54, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to Queen (band), as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. SummerPhD^v2.0 23:42, 31 December 2017 (UTC)

Got it. Boötes (talk) 00:24, 1 January 2018 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genres in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at The Great Southern Trendkill. Binksternet (talk) 02:41, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
