Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Nigel Wright (musician) has been reverted.
Your edit here to Nigel Wright (musician) was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.facebook.com/http://http://www.facebook.com/NigelWrightOfficial) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 02:13, 3 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. You are braver than I to attempt a new article so quickly. Wikipedia, I am sure to avoid libel issues, is very picky about articles on living people. (see Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons) You will need to have references from secondary sources such as newspapers and magazines; or websites (usually not blogs) not directly associated with the musician or his label. Sites like Facebook, Myspace and YouTube are frowned upon. There is also a standard of notability for which biographies have to rise. (Wikipedia:MUSICBIO) I am not too conversant in modern music, so I cannot tell you how notable by Wiki standards your guy is. BTW, your article has been accepted into Wikipedia, but it is tagged as needing improvement. Congratulations. Read some of these links here and look for some better references. You are doing great and it is good to have your work here.Gtwfan52 (talk) 22:17, 19 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Dear Gtwfan, thanks for writing back and thanks for your advice - helped me a lot. I will improve it over time ! All the best --Jaanus Parker (talk) 17:33, 22 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi, Jaanus...You are doing great work on your article on Nigel. Just a couple little points. When you make an edit, be sure to fill out the little box below (Edit summary). It lessens the chance of a bot reverting what you have done and allows other editors to follow what you are doing. Also, if you get some time you may want to start a userpage so you can tell us all a bit about yourself. Have fun in Wikiland!Gtwfan52 (talk) 19:37, 23 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
