Welcome![edit]
Hi Chsumusic, and welcome to Wikipedia! I've written some advice on editing here for students in Prof. Jackson's similar classes at Longy School of Music which you might find helpful. You'll find it here. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page (User talk:Voceditenore), or place {{helpme}} here on your talk page, ask your question, and another editor will come along to help. You might also be interested in WikiProject Classical music and WikiProject Composers. They have various guidelines for articles in this area and talk pages where you can ask advice from editors experienced in writing articles on classical music and related subjects. You'll find these guides particularly useful: WikiProject Composers: Guide to online research and WikiProject Composers: Copyright guidelines. Happy editing and best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 11:15, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Hi Chsumusic. Unfortunately I had to remove virtually all the content from this draft as a serious and extensive copyright violation from this web page. See the Duplication Detector Report for "The BOP Studios Story" (soundonsound.com). But there was also material copied from here and here. This is a notable and interesting topic and I encourage you to re-write the draft succinctly and in your own words. Material which violates copyright cannot appear anywhere on Wikipedia, including user pages and drafts. I have also removed the list of stolen equipment as neither that content nor its source is suitable for an encyclopedia article.
For basic guidance on how to avoid copyright problems in the future, Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources has some good advice for beginners with lots of links to more detailed copyright guidance pages. Please read it carefully before attempting the rewrite. Best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 14:35, 27 April 2015 (UTC)
- Greetings Voceditenore. Thank you so much for the input. I appreciate your concern and help. I'll definitely be updating the article following copyright guidelines and adhering to restrictions.
- That's great news, Chsumusic. If you need any further help, just let me know. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 15:43, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

Noted! You've been a wonderful resource, I cannot thank you enough! Chsumusic (talk) 15:50, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
Voceditenore I have one question for you that pertains to Copyright that I've been unable to find an answer to through the resources you kindly included above. How would I go about citing an old Billboard article that's only viewable online? Is that a sufficient, citable work for Wiki standards? The direct link is here: BOP Studios. Thank you for your time!Chsumusic (talk) 15:55, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
- You've learnt how to sign and how to ping too. Bravo! OK, here's how to cite that article...
- Bridger, Jon (14 November 1992). "BOP Works to Overcome Challenges", p. 56. Billboard
- It's absolutely fine to use print editions of books, magazines etc. In fact, they're highly desirable. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 16:30, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
Voceditenore Wonderful! This makes perfect sense. You're a life saver! This might be an obvious question, but I'm not sure how to transfer the work from my Sandbox to a Proposed Title to make a new Wikipedia page for my topic for Ijmusic's class.
- In this case, since you have been the only significant editor it was fine to do as you did and paste it directly into BOP Studios. I'll nip over and do a bit of tidying. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
Voceditenore Your behind-the-scenes work has been a fantastic help. The world needs more altruistic individuals like yourself! I also wanted to let you know I'm in the process of securing permission for an official photo to use with the article, as well as a direct quote from the building's architect and design coordinator. You've been an integral part in the process, and I'm excited to continue to adapt the page! Best regards, Chsumusic (talk) 17:33, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
- Me again. Since you have already created the article, don't put a review request on Draft:Bophuthatswana Recording Studios. I've removed it and tomorrow will ask an admin to delete the draft version. It's better not to keep a version with copyvio in the history. From now on, put all additions/corrections directly in the article BOP Studios. Onwards and upwards
