Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Hells Bells (song)‎‎, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. —Bagumba (talk) 14:53, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

John Taylor & Co (Bellfounders) Loughborough, Leicestershire, England , now trading as John Taylor & Co - same location..

This is factual information. Your previously entry stated that the bell was cast by 'John Taylor Bellfounders in Loughborough, Leicestershire' that has probably been there for the last 40 years or from when this page was created. I have merely given the correct company name when I was bellmaster there from 1977-1988, but currently the company trades as 'John Taylor & Co' www.taylorbells.co.uk/. The company has been in the hands of the Taylor family from 1784 and this is public record. Your own Wikipedia entry for the bellfoundry states "John Taylor & Co, commonly known as Taylor's Bell Foundry, Taylor's of Loughborough, or simply Taylor's, is the world's largest working bell foundry. It is in Loughborough, in the Charnwood borough of Leicestershire, England. The business originated in the 14th century and became Taylor's after the Taylor family took over in 1784". I think the company deserves this reference to having cast the bell in 1980! In one of my removed amendments I cited my book 'Bells & Bellfounding', Author Michael J Milsom, published by CreateSpace in November 2017, ISBN: 978-1547239153, second revision May 2018, and it is subtitled 'A History, Church bells, Carillons, John Taylor & Co, Bellfounders, Loughborough, England'. I do not see why there is a conflict of interest. One of your objections to another of my attempted amendments is that the previous entry gave the weight as 2,000 pounds(910kg) and not tons. My correct data as the bell being musical note E, and diameter (imperial and metric) also has the weight in pounds that is 2,318 after the weight of 1.03 UK tons, and then the 1,051kg metric equivalent. This is not a substantial change, merely a correction with metric conversions. I am trying to put a correct amendment as there is a resurgence of interest in the 'Hell's Bell, the album 'Back in Black' and the new lead singer Brian Johnston as all of these took place in 1980, so 2020 is the 40th anniversary. If you are not prepared to publish any other information will you please revert to crediting Taylor's as having cast the bell. Thank you for deleting the previous incorrect information.
