January 2013 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to ¡Tré!, 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 to seek consensus for certain edits. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 14:44, 29 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Ways to improve Focus X edit

Hi, I'm Josh1024. Y45ed, thanks for creating Focus X!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hi, just reviewed your article on Focus X, would suggest adding citations and addressing other issues. Apart from that good article.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. —Preceding undated comment added 21:50, 5 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

March 2013 edit

  Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Rubber Soul, 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. Dan56 (talk) 00:48, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Websites that mirror content from Wikipedia are not reliable sources and should be avoided (Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks). The website you cited in this edit clearly shows a previous revision of Wikipedia's infobox for Rubber Soul. Dan56 (talk) 19:41, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
No, never use sites that mirror Wikipedia content. Genres in particular are subjective views, which should only be given weight if from scholarly critiques and experts in music journalism/criticism (WP:SUBJECTIVE). None of these credits indicates such expertise. BTW, any tech-savvy Internet user can design their own website or blog and claim to be an expert (WP:Self-published sources). The site you used specifically says in their terms and conditions as a disclaimer on behalf of the site's publisher: "Apple Corps Ltd does not make any representation or warranty in respect of the accuracy and / or reliability of any of the information, content, software or advertisements..."

Replaceable fair use File:Terry Draper (musician).jpg edit

 

Thanks for uploading File:Terry Draper (musician).jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Fut.Perf. 21:39, 12 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Better source request for File:Tucky Buzzard - Allright on the Night.png edit

Thanks for your upload to Wikipedia:

You provided a source, but it is difficult for other users to examine the copyright status of the image because the source is incomplete. Please consider clarifying the exact source so that the copyright status may be checked more easily. It is best to specify the exact Web page where you found the image, rather than only giving the source domain or the URL of the image file itself. Please update the image description with a URL that will be more helpful to other users in determining the copyright status.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source in a complete manner. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page or me at my talk page. Thank you. Message delivered by Theo's Little Bot (opt-out) 21:01, 25 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Her Majesty edit

Wikipedia guidelines typically require you to do two things in regards to genre changes and additions, particularly when your edits meet with disagreement; you must source the edits, and you must discuss them in an attempt to reach consensus. I would recommend you initiate a discussion here in regards to the "folk music" genre addition you're trying to add to Her Majesty. Edit warring will only get your editing privileges suspended.

re: Symptom Of The Universe edit

First of all, you are misrepresenting Iommi's quote from the book. He did not categorically state that he "agree(d) with that claim" that the song is progressive metal. What he said was, and I quote directly from book, "I won't disagree with that". That is not an endorsement or confirmation by any means, and it simply isn't enough to justify the genre addition. Remember to keep your opinion out of your editing. Additionally, Iommi's opinion is non-neutral, and opinionated sources can quite often be questionable. If you want to push the matter, start a discussion and look for consensus on the subject. ChakaKongLet's talk about it 20:59, 6 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free media (File:Hocus Pocus - The Best Of Focus album artwork.jpg) edit

  Thanks for uploading File:Hocus Pocus - The Best Of Focus album artwork.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 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.

re : Klattu edit

First of all, it was you who initiated this by adding a new genre without source or consensus. I saw nothing to confirm this aside from your opinion, so I changed it to the genre assigned to the album the track comes from, which was progressive rock. Seemed logical, no? To be honest, the song fails to meet the notability guidelines anyhow, so problem solved. ChakaKongLet's talk about it 20:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Excuse me, please explain to me how this is vandalism. I was not attempting to "compromise the integrity of Wikipedia".

Speedy deletion nomination of File:The Feeling - Boy Cried Wolf.jpg edit

 

A tag has been placed on File:The Feeling - Boy Cried Wolf.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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 "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.

Frankly it amazes me how you can blatantly lie when the truth is here for everyone to see. I added the genre with a reliable source. It was you who then got fussy and decided that you wanted the genres in a different order. In other words, you started the "edit war".
I didn't include a link to WP:EDITWAR, but to WP:GWAR. And the genre warring warning template reads "without discussion or..." Perhaps reading WP:GWAR would welcome you to a rude awakening.

Genre warring on Heritage (Opeth album) edit

Please stop removing sourced information from Heritage (Opeth album). "Progressive metal" is sourced, and has been accepted by consensus on that article. If you disagree, start a discussion on Talk:Heritage (Opeth album). Do not continue to removed sourced material. Thank you. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 17:26, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

The source cited does not say the album is progressive metal, it only describes one song from the album being this genre, therefore not enough to go on to call the whole 12-song album progressive metal.Y45ed (talk) 17:32, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Several other editors on that article have already accepted it. As I said, if you disagree, discuss it, do not continue to remove it. If you continue to edit war, I can bring this to WP:ANI and ask that they block you (as I see you have a history of genre warring). MrMoustacheMM (talk) 17:35, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Please link me to this apparent consensus, as all I can see on the article's talk page is one discussion with only two messages in it, one of them being you, which does not count as consensus. Y45ed (talk) 17:38, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
From WP:CONSENSUS: "Consensus is a normal and usually implicit and invisible process across Wikipedia. Any edit that is not disputed or reverted by another editor can be assumed to have consensus." Additionally, the hidden note in the editing text of the genre field: "Please discuss on talk page or use reliable sources if you have an issue with this genre line-up. Please try not to edit this area to adhere to your point of view. Thank you." That the article has accepted these genres (and the hidden note) for as long as it has shows that consensus has been reached to include them. It is true that consensus can change; perhaps this is one of those times. However, this will have to be done through discussion, not your edit warring, per WP:BRD. If you really think it should be removed, start a discussion, and wait until more editors have had their say (generally a week is considered a reasonable amount of time). In the meantime, stop your genre warring. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 17:43, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Y45ed is apparently still incapable of distinguishing between a collaborative project and a personal blog. ChakaKongLet's talk about it 22:30, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Please inform me, since I am quite confused, why I am in the wrong. The source cited was a link to the Allmusic review, in which the reviewer states, and i quote, "The Devil's Orchard ... melds progressive metal with prog rock". One song being labelled prog-metal is simply not enough to support the claim for the whole album. Why I am suddenly a war criminal for removing it with reason, practicing something that YOU preach? The genre did not have a reliable source, therefore I removed it. I am not treating this as a personal blog, as I would be more than happy to keep the genre if a reliable source was provided but, after not finding anything on the internet that supported the claim, I removed it. Y45ed (talk) 23:16, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
You are in the wrong because you are making an edit against the accepted consensus on the article without any discussion first (which in and of itself could be considered being bold, although the hidden note asking for discussion is quite visible when you edit that area of the article), and then when your edit is reverted, you continue to make the edit instead of discussing it on the article's talk page. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 23:32, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Please note how I have not edited the page since you informed me of this on your second message of this section. You decided not to tell me earlier, therefore how was i supposed to know? Put yourself in my position. I saw something that didn't have a reliable source, so I removed it. If you had told me this before, I would have stopped upon your first rv, but instead you decided to let the edit war happen. Y45ed (talk) 23:39, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
I have noted that, which is why I have continued to reply here. When editing, please try to pay closer attention to any hidden notes in the immediate vicinity of where you are editing; that may have stopped this before it even began. Be aware that any edits to the genre field of an infobox may be questioned or undone by editors on Wikipedia (as shown by your talk page above); it is often a better plan to just start the discussion before making an edit, or upon the first revert. I look forward to discussing this specific sourcing issue on the article's talk page. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 23:49, 11 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

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.
