  Hi Lpro93! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Roger Woodward that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Don't worry, it's not a big deal, I once marked major edits as minor too. :) InterstateFive (talk) - just another roadgeek 02:37, 22 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

March 2022

  Hello. Your recent edit to Godalming Grammar School appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Paul M. Ellison is an important academic in the musicology field (music research) specifically in the music of Beethoven. Also he is a contributor to Nineteenth Century Music Review, The Cambridge Encyclopedia of

Speedy deletion nomination of Chris Dench

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Chris Dench requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.australianmusiccentre.com.au/artist/dench-chris. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I do really apologize, please if it needs to be deleted do it. I do really apologize for the inconvenience, I do really hope to be let to keep adding more articles. I will not comit the same mistake again. Lpro93 (talk) 05:31, 16 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for your understanding. I also want to note that I've removed some very, very long quotations from a couple of related articles. For a non-free source, quotations are allowed but should be kept relatively brief – enough to get the point across but most of an article should still be summarized in original prose. Particularly for references, if the website is online and accessible to readers, there's no need to add an extensive quote from it because it's just one click away. Hope that makes sense. Thank you for your contributions, which I am not trying to erase, just bringing the articles more in line with standards! DanCherek (talk) 05:35, 16 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Oh, I understand, Couald I add Richard Toop' analyze as a reference and cite the book/journal. He is/was a leading musicologist in direct contact with the musicians and composers involved in those compositions. Thank you so much for your help Lpro93 (talk) 05:41, 16 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
That sounds fine to me! As long as you're either summarizing information in your own words or using illustrative quotes sparingly. Thanks, DanCherek (talk) 05:43, 16 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Robert Curry (musicologist and pianist) moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Robert Curry (musicologist and pianist), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Oh, I understand, Thank you so much. Lpro93 (talk) 07:08, 16 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Please review WP:NPOV

edit

Stuffing the text full of reviews and excerpts doesn't make it permissible to violate Wikipedia's neutral-point-of-view policies. In particular, the lede should be a concise summary, and not read like an advertisement. OhNoitsJamie Talk 02:15, 10 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

April 2024

edit

  Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! DoctorMatt (talk) 01:36, 27 April 2024 (UTC)Reply
