The White Buffalo

edit

Hi - I just wanted to say good job on finding the information about the new single and the description on the page for The White Buffalo, as this helps readers get a good idea of what the song is about. I have some words of caution, however.

Be careful of tense when you're adding to the encyclopedia. For example, the word "today" is very quickly dated as tomorrow it won't be "today" anymore. I updated this to reflect more on the "when" the news was announced. Also be careful of quoting publications. It's fine to do this, but you need to make sure that you attribute the quote properly to avoid it being seen as possible copyvio or plagiarism, and to ensure that any opinion words don't come across as the opinion of the article. I went ahead and tweaked this as well, although with this it wasn't really much to worry about - the main thing was the tense. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:05, 4 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
