Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

  Hello. Some of your recent genre changes have conflicted with our neutral point of view and/or verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 00:40, 20 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Muhandes. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 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. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 00:43, 20 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to For Respect, 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. Robvanvee 20:31, 21 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Lucki, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and/or verifiability policies.

  Please do not add content which gives undue weight to some statement about a living person, as you did at Paul Mescal. On Wikipedia we take particular care over articles about living people.

New information, even if referenced, should be added only if noteworthy, relevant and documented in multiple reliable third-party sources. Wikipedia is not a newspaper and material should not be added if it is only gossip or has little longer-term importance, or if the only sourcing is tabloid journalism.

If challenged, the onus is on the editor who adds the content to justify its retention. Thank you. KyleJoantalk 00:39, 8 November 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Please do not attack other editors. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. General Ization Talk 04:04, 28 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Nirvana (band), did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. 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. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to change genres without discussion or sources, as you did at Surfer Rosa, you may be blocked from editing. Muhandes (talk) 17:49, 12 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Plugg edits

edit

Thanks for your edits in "Plugg". There is one bit you added under reference link, about sigilkore. I extracted it from referenced content as it is not referenced that "vamp plugg" is related to sigilkore in any way. If you have sources on that please add them because otherwise it is original research. PDDisPDDat (talk) 10:58, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

The source on sigilkore you added doesn't mention "vamp", "kiyoko" or "st7tic". the only passing mention of "plug" is that sigilkore producer Rachyl uses "pluggnb inspired flows". Everyone knows that "sigilkore" exists, and in fact HexD article was deleted from Wikipedia not so long ago. It's just that sigilkore is not relevant to plugg, these are different styles. PDDisPDDat (talk) 18:01, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

fair enough, I just wanted sigilkore to have a place on wikipedia because it’s such a defined scene Xxzcx (talk) 18:24, 19 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
