Articles
editThere is some confusion about the articles Venice Gavotte and Make Our Garden Grow. They seem to be quotes of some kind but it doesn't say what kind. Can you clarify what the purpose is? They lack what wikipedians refer to as context , which tells the reader the significance and relation of the material.
If they are quotes then we need to know where they are from, who wrote them, what allows us to use them without copyright violation (such as being so old the copyright has expired), etc. A comment on the significance is also desirable.
If the sole content of the article is source material it might be more suited to the the sister project wikisource. People would like to make the articles read more like an encyclopedia entry but aren't sure where to start in this case.
Please continue to contribute, your efforts are appreciated. If you have any questions please leave a message on my talk page. Welcome to wikipedia. RJFJR 19:39, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
Addendum

Mornin'
editYour constant, silent reversion without explanation, leads to the conclusion that you are doing it just to be a jerk. Wahkeenah 18:19, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
- Please at least respond, and explain why you keep deleting my explanation, or I will seek action against you for vandalism. Wahkeenah 23:31, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
- Never mind, it is now clear that your so-called "contributions" to various articles consist mainly or solely of pasting in copyrighted lyrics. If you continue this practice, in violation of wikipedia policy, you will be eventually be blocked from editing. Wahkeenah 16:48, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Please include edit summaries. These help other editors coordinate their collaborative work on articles and document what is being done. Also, please remember that the talk page is available to discuss work, make comments and notes or place material that you remvoe but feel others should discuss for inclusion. Discussion and consensus are appreciated on Wikipedia. RJFJR 17:30, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Music of the Night (song)
