Genres

Hi, you may be interested in taking a look at Wikipedia:WikiProject Music/Music genres task force. Cheers --Fæ (talk) 16:52, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

In response to your feedback

Hi Freddy... There are a couple of things to remember... First, there is no 'Wikipedia' that deletes edits!  :) Changes are made by any editor just like you. Second, there are different opinions about what is 'correct' and what is not. Perhaps another editor did not agree with your edits. That's ok. If you feel strongly about them, you can put that information on the article's 'talk' page and you and other editors can discuss and hopefully reach a consensus. You have as much right to state your case for a change as anyone else on Wikipedia! That's what makes it cool.

If I can help with anything, please feel free to let me know. Just click "Talk" after my name and leave me a message. :)

Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Vinnie Vincent Invasion, without providing a source and without establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. ChakaKong^{Let's talk about it} 23:51, 29 November 2013 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes 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. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:47, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

As for formatting, take a look at template:infobox album. Walter Görlitz (talk) 17:52, 21 May 2014 (UTC)

Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Whitesnake. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Please do not remove cited genres and replace them with uncited ones. Binksternet (talk) 15:20, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

• As you must have expected, you have been blocked again, this time for much longer. You have repeatedly been told about the issue, over a period of nine months, but yo choose to ignore all messages about it. Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and when we disagree with other editors, we explain our reasons, discuss the issues, and try to reach agreement. We do not simply ignore what everybody else thinks, and keep on doing what we individually prefer. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 19:49, 31 August 2014 (UTC)

November 2014

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to change genres without discussion or sources, as you did at He's Back (The Man Behind the Mask), you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 16:45, 1 November 2014 (UTC)

Zana

To čime sebe smatraju članovi Zane je samo njihova stvar. Na stranu šta mi mislimo (a ja lično mislim da je sasvim očita stvar da su njihovi zadnji albumi pop-folk, Balkan pop ili kako god želeli da označimo taj zvuk), tvrdnja da su njihovi zadnji albumi bili folk orijentisani preuzeta je iz Ex YU rock enciklopedije Petra Janjatovića, a neće biti teško naći još relevantnih izvora u kojima se to tvrdi. Brisanje tvrdnji potkrepljenih citatima je vandalizam. Ostalocutanje (talk) 17:54, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

"Neki tamo autor" je jedan od najistaknutijih domaćih muzičkih kritičara, a njegova Ex YU rock enciklopedija je jedno od najznačajnijih, ako ne najzanačajnije delo o popularnoj muzici na ovim prostorima; to su izvori kakvi se uvažavaju kada je o ovim stvarima reč. Mislim da Vam je savršeno jasno da to što bend za sebe kaže "zvanično" (mada niste pružili nijednu referencu koja bi to potvrdila) nije nimalo bitno - Zana mogu za sebe "zvanično" reći da su gudački oktet ili ambijetalni blek metal, ali to neće biti tačno samo zato što to oni tvrde - i da su Vam argumenti, najblaže rečeno, labavi. Kad sam rekao "vandalizam" mislio sam na politiku Vikipedije, i to Vam je takođe, siguran sam, jasno. Ja sam potpuno posvećen radu na Vikipediji, i za objektivnost i istinitost članaka ne prestajem da se borim ni kada se članovi bendova (što je, onako, baš jadno) lično umešaju u moj rad. Po poslednji put vraćam članak na moju poslednju verziju, a nakon naredne nekonstruktivne ispravke Vas prijavljujem administratorima. Ostalocutanje (talk) 20:44, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

February 2015

Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to TNT (band), 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. Binksternet (talk) 17:33, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

This is the final warning that you will receive regarding continued genre changing without discussion or sources. If you choose to continue, as you did at Martika, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Binksternet (talk) 01:34, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

March 2015

This is the final warning that you will receive regarding continued genre changing without discussion or sources. If you choose to continue, as you did at Glenn Medeiros, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You have been told repeatedly that adult contemporary is a radio format, not a musical genre. Binksternet (talk) 21:39, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

April 2015

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genre in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Stevie Nicks. Mlpearc (open channel) 00:05, 13 April 2015 (UTC)

April 2015

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genre in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Heart over Mind (Jennifer Rush album). You have been told repeatedly that "adult contemporary" is not a musical genre. It is a radio format. Do not put adult contemporary in the genre parameter of infoboxes. Binksternet (talk) 20:59, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abuse of editing privileges. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.
