Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! 220 of Borg 05:51, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to U Can't Touch This, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. SummerPhDv2.0 02:30, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing →   Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! 220 of Borg 05:52, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Better Dayz, without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. SummerPhDv2.0 15:19, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

In terms of sourcing genres, AllMusic's articles(the prose, where there is any) is generally considered a reliable source as it is subject to editorial review. The sidebar (the "box") listing genres, however, is automatically generated and cannot be used as a source for genres. - SummerPhDv2.0 22:41, 10 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to G-Funk Classics, Vol. 1 & 2. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Robvanvee 05:54, 16 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia. 115.164.220.231 (talk) 10:30, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genres in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Panther Power. SummerPhDv2.0 13:27, 25 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
