  Hello, I'm Iknow23. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Alessia Cara, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! 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.

In Discography tables, singles albums articles, etc...Verifiable sources MUST be visible on the article page. "Cite your sources: <ref></ref>". Viewable content requires viewable sources. Readers cannot be expected to have to review an article's ENTIRE edit summary, or hidden comments within the article, or visit the Talk page for references. Thus, don't forget to provide an INDIVIDUAL source if the column header source or template doesn't support your update.

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Hello (Adele song), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Iknow23 (talk) 18:02, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Here (Alessia Cara song). This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Iknow23 (talk) 21:47, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Alessia Cara.

PLEASE STOP adding unsourced content. "Cite your sources: <ref></ref>"

List of Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles in 2016

edit
 

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of List of Billboard Hot 100 top 10 singles in 2016, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://us.wow.com/wiki/List_of_Billboard_Hot_100_top_10_singles_in_2015.

It is possible that the bot was mistaken 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. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.)

  Greetings. At least one of your recent edits did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Adult Top 40 number-one songs of the 2010s, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Stitches. 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.

Decided to retain your edit (and the revert of my earlier revert) here, but I noticed the source you used - the same one in several different places - is also used elsewhere in the article, and I decided to combine them all (as they use the same URL) [1]. About that source: I'm not sure how recent that all-time chart is ... the first use of the source indicates a date in November 2015, though I can't find that date in the source itself. But judging from that date, it comes before Rihanna's "Work" even entered the Hot 100. So I don't know for sure about discounting that Entertainment Weekly source, though that one said "Work" outranked "Umbrella", not "We Found Love". In any case, the all-time list from Billboard, as you put in your edit summary reverting me, is a good measure of which song from an artist ranks the highest for that artist, though the source we're using isn't complete.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits.
