Otzi article: "born" and "died" are backwards. Dates are BCE and count down. Born year should always be a larger number than died year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:500:C000:449:957C:22D7:5327:9DD0 (talk) 21:33, 19 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Answer to your question about Decline edit

Hello, I saw you added but then deleted a question about the Decline for your article. The reason is that you have not provided evidence that the band/album currently meets the benchmarks laid out in WP:Notability (music). You mention that you want to use Wikipedia to get more exposure: F.O.C.I.S is a brand new group that has not been very seen by the public eye, but I wanted to create this article so that the group could become more known or publicized across the internet. That is 100% not how Wikipedia works: we don't help people get more exposure, we summarise the exposure they already have.

If you don't have evidence that F.O.C.I.S. has met the required charting, or gotten enough media coverage, it is not yet time to have an article about them. There are many, many ways to promote a band on the internet, but Wikipedia is not one of them; instead here we seek to just provide factual, cited information about what has already been said about the band, all in one place. Now, if in a few months FOCIS gets some chart-topping hits, or Pitchfork and L.A. Times do articles on them, or a Berkeley professor finds their work to have great socio-political importance and writes an article about them, those are the times we can start looking into an article about a band.

Hope this helps, feel free to message me on my Talk page if you have any questions. MatthewVanitas (talk) 22:52, 30 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of articles/pages edit

I have deleted the articles/pages that you appear to have wanted deleted according to the names that you moved them to. Moving the articles/pages was not quite the correct way to ask for deletion. Instead, you can use the speedy deletion add {{db-user}} to articles/pages that you created that you want to have deleted. An admin will then delete the article/page for you. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 01:47, 2 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Re your message:I have deleted all your articles/pages as policy allows. I can not delete your user talk page. You can blank or archive your own user talk page as you wish. You can also request a courtesy vanishing. Sorry to see you go. I hope that you will reconsider. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 04:33, 2 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

July 2013 edit

  Hello, I'm 117Avenue. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Dylan Everett, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. 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. 117Avenue (talk) 05:47, 24 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

February 2017 edit

  Hello, I'm SummerPhDv2.0. I noticed that you made a change to an article, María Canals Barrera, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now. Please note that the verifiability policy mandates that unsourced material that has been challenged, such as by a "fact" tag, or by its removal, may not be added back without a reliable, published source being cited for the content, using an inline citation. The cited source must clearly support the material as presented in the article, and the burden is on the person wishing to keep in the disputed material. So if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so, following these requirements! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.
