Proposed deletion of James Bowman (musician)

edit
 

The article James Bowman (musician) has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. reddogsix (talk) 05:56, 26 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Proposed deletion of 7 song cassette against me!

edit
 

The article 7 song cassette against me! has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This is a demo tape for an album that is itself of doubtful notability; this most certainly does not require a standalone article.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

April 2016

Your recent editing history at Laura Jane Grace shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

What's the deal with these two edits? You can see at Template:Infobox person that the only time parents and children should be in the infobox is if they are notable themselves or particularly significant to the topic. This was discussed on the talk page. Binksternet (talk) 01:49, 29 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

In general, we don't remove deadlinks, see Wikipedia:Link rot. Best practice is to see if the link can be fixed to an archived version at the Internet Archive.

In this specific case, the link works for me. Perhaps the site was down for a bit, dunno. Cheers, --joe deckertalk 07:08, 16 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Ok well i couldnt get the link to work and it seemed misleading/ kinda annoying thats all. User:Lifesfun|lifesfun]]talk
