  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! While we appreciate that you enjoy using Wikipedia, please note that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and not a social network. Wikipedia is not a place to socialize or do things that are not directly related to improving the encyclopedia, as you did at Jarrod Brant. Off-topic material may be deleted at any time. This message is not meant to discourage you from editing Wikipedia but rather to remind you that the ultimate goal of this website is to build an encyclopedia. If you would like to provide Wikipedia users with some information about yourself, I encourage you to take advantage of your user page, which is designed for this purpose. For more information about user pages, look here. Thanks! I hope this helps. Rising*From*Ashes (talk) 06:21, 8 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of TOS (band)

edit
 

A tag has been placed on TOS (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. -WarthogDemon 01:07, 2 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Kiss (band)

edit

Please stop changing the genre section of the infobox on the Kiss (band) article. Multiple editors have reverted your edits and there was a note asking to discuss any changes to the genre section on the articles talk page. Frehley 07:00, 2 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

  You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Kiss (band). Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Do not add uncited personal opinion to any articles on Wikipedia or you will be blocked from editing.

  Please stop making test edits to Wikipedia, as you did to Kiss (band). It is considered vandalism, which, under Wikipedia policy, can lead to blocking of editing privileges. If you would like to experiment again, please use the sandbox. Wether B (talk) 00:17, 3 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Please stop.

edit

You are still changing the genre section in the Kiss (band) article even though it was said to discuss any changes on the talk page first. The discussion currently says that only the two current genres should be in the infobox. If you continue to change the genres your edits could be considered vandalism, and your account might get blocked. Frehley 05:50, 10 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of F.E.A.R. (band)

edit
 

A tag has been placed on F.E.A.R. (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. t'shaélchat 13:03, 10 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Since Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by some search engines, including Google. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. Peter Fleet (talk) 00:55, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
