Welcome HurricaneAmputee!

Hello HurricaneAmputee. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Jax 0677, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Sincerely, Jax 0677 (talk) 22:16, 24 March 2022 (UTC)   (Leave me a message)Reply

Adding citation needed templates to sourced genres

edit

Hello, thank you for your edits. I noticed you have been adding citation needed templates to infobox genres. Please be sure that the genre isn't sourced when you are adding a citation needed template. Here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/1128381746 you added a citation needed template even though it is sourced later in the article, rather than the infobox. Please note that many band articles have a musical style section and this is where the genres are sourced. This is to keep the infobox from becoming cluttered. Thank you.

Citation needed tags

edit

Hi, it is discouraged to tag articles with citation needed templates if these articles already have a global tag on top, see WP:TAGBOMBING --FMSky (talk) 02:13, 8 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Monkey Puzzle (Scottish band)

edit
 

The article Monkey Puzzle (Scottish band) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not meeting notability requirements, unable to find sourcing in reliable sources. Not meeting musician notability requirements, no charted singles, no awards won.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
