Hello Quest14759. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Walter Görlitz, 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!

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

edit

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Gorillaz into Meanwhile... (Gorillaz EP). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 23:59, 27 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Pop Drunk Snot Bread

The article Pop Drunk Snot Bread has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

non notable album

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.

Speedy deletion nomination of Pop Drunk Snot Bread

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 Pop Drunk Snot Bread requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Regarding a redirect on the page for the 2023 incarnation of Clone High

edit

Why did you put a redirect to the page for the Clone High reboot? There is no mention of the show being Season 2 on Max (it is considered as a separate show from the OG), sources such as Rotten Tomatoes don't consider this show as S2 of the original and it was produced entirely in the US rather than the original which was co-produced in Canada. Please state your thoughts below. Thanks for understanding.

the creators have said themselves that it is just a second season of the show. i just felt it would be easier to keep it all in one article Quest14759 (talk) 17:42, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

NOFX

edit

Hey. I'm writing to you, not just because I reverted your changes again, but to say that it's probably better that you discuss on Talk:NOFX why you think their discography page shouldn't be included in their infobox before removing it one more time. UndergroundMan3000 (talk) 14:08, 17 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

September 2023

edit

Please stop wiki-linking to Mega Collider Records on the Third Eye Blind related articles. Links like that don't help the reader when it just redirects to a massive band page that barely even mentions the label. Sergecross73 msg me 00:53, 29 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Removing discography pages

edit

What's with you removing discography pages at articles such as NOFX, The Offspring, Less Than Jake, Weezer, etc.? Whatever your reason is, please stop it. UndergroundMan3000 (talk) 14:14, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

i'm only removing them from the infobox. its not needed there because theres entire sections in those articles dedicated to show their discographies. people can just scroll down there, theres no need for it to be in an infobox Quest14759 (talk) 14:53, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, I'm aware that articles of the bands I reverted you at have their own discography sections, but it should be noted that there are tons of other band articles (examples including Rush, Nirvana, Metallica, Slayer, Pantera, Sepultura, Tool, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, etc.) that have their discography page listed in both the infobox and discography section. Does that mean their discography page shouldn't be included in the infobox either? UndergroundMan3000 (talk) 15:43, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
those all werent added until recently. whats with u mentioning other bands? im just saying a link to discographies arent necessary to infoboxes, they should be in their own section. why are you making this a big deal?? Quest14759 (talk) 16:09, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
I was just giving you an example of who else has their discography page in their discography section and infobox. If you think including one to a band's infobox is not necessary, then I think this matter should be discussed at Template talk:Infobox musical artist#Discography and not just to me. UndergroundMan3000 (talk) 16:14, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Literally everything in the infobox is in some other section of the article, that's the entire point of an infobox. If you have a problem with including discographies in the infobox, take it to that template talk page, but edit warring a valid parameter isn't going to prove your point.

Missile Toes moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to Missile Toes. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 01:49, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Sergecross73 msg me 15:03, 28 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Final warning - next time you add content to Wikipedia without citing a source, your account will be temporarily blocked from editing. See WP:REFB if you need help, but ignoring these warnings and continuing to add unsourced info is not an option. Sergecross73 msg me 16:39, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
I saw your comment here and assumed it was a misplaced response to this discussion? If so, I'm referring to how you kept making unsourced tweaks like this at Trapt, and then, rather than stopping, you did it again here at Bowling for Soup. Sergecross73 msg me 23:32, 30 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please carefully read WP:BLP; Dextero and Youtube videos do not qualify as WP:RS for the content you added to Wilbut Soot

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory or otherwise controversial content into an article or any other Wikipedia page.

Blocked

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for violations of Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

I highly suggest reading WP:RSP before posting any contentious information in the future. When in doubt, take it to the talk page first. We take WP:BLP very seriously here. OhNoitsJamie Talk 21:32, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

 
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Request reason:

i added info that has been trending about that creator for a while, dont think my profile's in need of a block

Decline reason:

Your lack of understanding and insight into your block is disheartening considering this block is only for 24 hours. Trending is irrelevant.. You need WP:RS for BLP's.-- Deepfriedokra (talk) 22:46, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply


If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

dont understand how its "disheartening" lmao. yes it is 24 hours and i can wait, but im just confused as to why it was made a big deal to the point where i was blocked? he was a fairly popular figure, and added a source from a publication.

Your next block will be much longer if you add that material again after this block expires. OhNoitsJamie Talk 02:10, 10 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

still no explanation as to what i did was wrong. its public info, you didnt tell me how the source was "unreliable"

You were given a very clear warning about BLP, which you violated by replacing one unreliable source with another unreliable source. Further violations of WP:BLP will result in longer blocks. OhNoitsJamie Talk 21:33, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
