August 2014 edit

  Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to The Zone (album), without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 23:26, 15 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Excuse me? I have never seen that webpage in my entire life...

I'm sorry, you are correct. The BBC clearly copied Wikipedia word-for-word.

Disambiguation link notification for August 24 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Memoirs of a Madman (album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Diary of a Madman. 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.

Reference Errors on 26 August edit

Eagles Reference Removal edit

I see you have been here for just a very short time, with a little over 300 edits. By making the disputed edit, you are not improving the article. In fact, you are making it worse. And by continuing to make the bad edit, you are entering the realm of edit warring. Please refrain from removing referenced material and breaking citations from the article, but please feel free to add referenced content to improve it. Cheers. Doc talk 23:39, 28 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

The consensus is to just have "Rock" displayed in the infobox, and rock only. If you want any more genres added, discuss on the talk page. I am not in the wrong, I am simply reverting edits back to the agreed revision. And those cite errors are not my fault. An editor ignores the consensus by adding genres attached to sources. These sources leave error warnings when they are reverted. It is not my problem to sort out. If the editor hadn't ignored the consensus in the first place, there wouldn't be any errors to resolve! I don't know how I can make that any clearer. Shikari 123 (talk) 00:16, 29 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
I do not care about genres at all. I care about cite errors. You seem intelligent enough to figure out how to remove what you think is inappropriate without causing cite errors. So you are responsible for edits that create cite errors, no matter who made the prior edit, for whatever reason. If there were no cite errors before, and your edit caused them, it's on you. We want articles without cite errors, and if you caused them you must clean them up. Cheers :) Doc talk 07:21, 30 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
But it's a blatant chain of events, caused by the editor who refused to obey the consensus. Shikari 123 (talk) 20:39, 30 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

RFC you may be interested in edit

Previously, you participated in an informal discussion at Talk:Eagles (band) regarding genres in the infobox. Due to a recent dispute, a formal RFC has been opened on the matter. Please feel free to comment as you see fit. --Jayron32 23:27, 5 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for creating this helpful RFC, I've now signed it. Shikari 123 (talk) 23:41, 5 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
In the interest of keeping the peace, can you undo your recent reversion of our genre-warrior friend? The RFC is done in lieu of edit-warring, and it would be best to avoid editing the article while the RFC is still an open question. When you change the article to favor your own vote in an RFC while the RFC is active, it really doesn't look good. Let the article be for a few days. Please, just undo yourself and let it alone; when the RFC is complete then we can implement the change. And it will then carry the force of consensus, and make it unassailable. Right now it just looks like more edit warring, and we don't want that. --Jayron32 00:12, 6 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

November 2014 edit

 

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Klaatu (band). Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Radiopathy •talk• 18:08, 5 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Your revert on Doom metal edit

You have reverted my edit on Doom Metal. Please read this. It tells you when to use reverts. And since I have started a discussion on the talk page, you are expected to wait for the result of the discussionbefore you apply changes or reverts. -- Zz (talk) 15:03, 6 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Ref name edit

You can reduce the code clutter by using ref name function, see this. It is rather simple; instead of repeating the same ref many times, you add name=blah to the first one (so it becomes <ref name=blah>ref text</ref>), and all others can be just <ref name=blah/>. 115.164.53.229 (talk) 13:04, 9 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

You need to use cite template like this. However, if there's two same links on Reference section, you need to use ref name in this case. 183.171.182.189 (talk) 06:02, 20 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Verifiability edit

Hello, Shikari 123. The article List of best-selling music artists in the United States is specifically "the list of the top 100 best-selling music artists in the United States only based on certifications of albums by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA)." The only source that is usable for this list is RIAA certifications, not sales as the artists put on their own sites. For that reason, I have restored the verifiable version of the article. If you would like to change the focus of this article, please feel free to discuss this at the article's talk page, but please do not restore it to the incorrect version. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 01:04, 10 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Looking more closely at your note when you reverted me, I suspect that you may not have realized that your reversion of my edit introduced errors into the article. I did not revert because of your genre changes. I don't care what the genre says, within reason. I reverted because of vandalism prior to your change that messed up the order of the list. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 01:09, 10 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

May 2015 edit

  Please do not add original research to articles as you apparently did to Blur (Blur album). Please cite a reliable source directly related to the topic of the article, which is often found through research of the most reliable sources on the topic. Don't take this the wrong way, but I'm assuming you found the source you cited here by Googling "Blur" and "art rock". Either way, the source is not directly related to the topic of the article, i.e. the album Blur. Dan56 (talk) 03:53, 18 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
