Echoing the sentiments below, the total overhaul of Skate Punk is not within the acceptable editing expectation of Wikipedia. The scope of the page was greatly narrowed and the neutral view point of the page entirely lost. Therefore, the original version has been restored.--Staplediet (talk) 08:37, 13 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes have conflicted with our neutral point of view and verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. Both pop punk and punk rock are sourced in the prose in the "Heart's All Gone" article, so please don't replace either of them with an unsourced genre. Kokoro20 (talk) 03:21, 30 June 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Aiden, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages The Misfits and The Damned. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

  Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to The Art of Drowning (album), without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 11:25, 7 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

  Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! 220 of Borg 03:02, 4 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Genres

edit
I can see this is becoming an issue on a number of other pages. It's not enough simply to have a source when adding genres to an infobox:
  1. The "genre" field should be limited to genres that describe the album (or group, or whatever) in general, and not every genre that has been incorprated into it. Imagine what the Beatles' infobox would look like otherwise.
  2. The sources you are citing are not necessarily supporting the genres you're adding: for instance, Earles says: "Side B is ... proto-Sabbath sludge metal or proto-noise rock, depending on how you wish to retroactively consider this stuff against the underground rock history that came before and has transpired since ... etc etc doom metal scene etc etc power- and thrash-metal movements ..." ... it takes quite an imagination to read that and conclude that My War is a "sludge metal album".
  3. "Genre" is the kind of thing Wikipedians often come close to slitting each others' jugulars over (see WP:GENREWARRIOR). If you want to stay on good terms with your fellow editors, you'd best discuss changes to the "genre" field on the talk page.

@4TheWynne: Sorry about that. I didn't know that it needs to be discussed. I moved the sources for pop to the musical style and influences section so that the infobox looks more clear. EuropeanSwedenAmerican2222 (talk) 00:48, 30 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for uploading File:Blink-182 - Boring.ogg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:27, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
