Greneberg edit

I'm posting this message on your talk page because I noticed that you've recently created the new article Greneberg--The content seems well-organized. However, I think the article seems to contain a few errors: the article currently does not contain any references. As a new article, the most important thing is to find reliable references for all existing information.It would be great if you could also add references to the related article Roc Marciano.

Image deletion edit

Disambiguation link notification for April 4 edit

Hi. When you recently edited Greneberg, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bill Wright (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

September 2012 edit

  Hello, I'm Dan56. Your recent edit to the page Channel Orange appears to have added incorrect information, so I removed it for now. If you believe the information was correct, please cite a reliable source or discuss your change on the article's talk page. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 21:22, 28 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dont. This article is being nominated for GA, so any incorrect information will disrupt it; nominations need stability rather than constant editing. The section under the track listing template is reserved for verifiable/credited notes/samples. Technically, appropriated sounds from gaming systems dont count as sampling, at least they are not credited in the liner notes. Otherwise, I'd have included them. Dan56 (talk) 21:52, 28 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
BTW, next time your proposed change is not accepted, justify the change at the article's talk page and get consensus rather than immediately reintroducing your change. Dan56 (talk) 21:55, 28 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
YouTube should not be used as a source, especially for album credits. Your link did not verify anything about the album, and the issue has been discussed before; per WP:RSN/Archive 19, "Cite the original source of the claim. If the only source is youtube, then maybe the claim isn't that important." Only credited notes belong in the "notes" section of the article as it is. For example, there is dialogue included from the movie ATL on the song "End/Golden Girl", but it's not officially credited. Dan56 (talk) 22:01, 28 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
Even if I was to compare the YouTube soundbite to the song on the album (which I shouldnt as that original research), it doesnt belong in the track listing section, which deals with credited information and technical notes about the track listing. Anything else, such as that Playstation boot sound on "Start", or the piano line from an Elton John song imitated on "Super Rich Kids", or Ocean's song "Voodoo" playing on "End/Golden Girl", are included in the "content" section, where analytical information on the songs are discussed. There are numerous aural details on tracks that can be noted, but the line has to be drawn at what is credited. Dan56 (talk) 00:09, 29 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

December 2012 edit

Speedy deletion nomination of DG Beats 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 DG Beats requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Marcus Qwertyus (talk) 18:34, 16 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:RappersBestFriend.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading File:RappersBestFriend.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:31, 12 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

October 2013 edit

  Please do not add or change content, as you did to The Marshall Mathers LP 2, without verifying it by citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. I am referring to adding StreetRunner and that random other producer to the production section. STATic message me! 21:56, 21 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Okay I see that now, I am not sure why the personal that origionally posted it did not include them. Thanks for noticing that, but do not add the deluxe tracks back without a better source, it might just be an Amazon rumor. STATic message me! 22:14, 21 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

You really need to calm down and WP:CHILL with this. When a random small project is released, it does not immediately become notable because it was released by Alchemist. We should not be listing every single damn collaboration he does, because at this point it becomes excess information. I never said it was not real, but overblowing the article with Twitter refs does not help anything, and just makes it look even more unprofessional. Do a simple google search before adding content, and use reliable news sources, rather than Soundcloud and Twitter as they are WP:SPS and do not establish notability. STATic message me! 19:34, 26 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yeah you're right, just please do me a favor and use citations from websites like Complex, XXL, HipHopDX, Rap-Up, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and other sites at WP:ALBUMS/SOURCES, rather than a bunch of Twitter urls, it just looks better and more professional you know? I feel like eventually all these little projects are going to need to be merged into a "others" section, rather then have a new section for every minor one. STATic message me! 20:42, 26 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

About Twiz, I did not delete the page, I do not have that type of power. The administrator that saw it did that. You would have to discuss this with User:Peridon, but remain civil and ask politely and I am sure he/she will userify it to User:Orr971/sandbox for you to work on. I am sure they will too, but I advise you to not recreate it without significant sourcing to reliable sources. STATic message me! 20:51, 26 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Also since you're a huge Alchemist fan, if you wanted to create an article for the new Boldy James album, I would gladly help you expand it, as it received quite a bit of critical reviews. STATic message me! 21:31, 26 October 2013 (UTC)Reply

Twiz The Beat Pro edit

 

This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Twiz The Beat Pro, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.thebeeshine.com/what-inspires-twiz-the-beat-pro/.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

Your contributed article, Opera Noir (Timbaland Album) 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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Opera Noir (Timbaland Album). First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Textbook Timbo. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Textbook Timbo – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. STATic message me! 17:49, 9 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

July 2014 edit

  Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Textbook Timbo a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.
