Welcome!

[edit]

Hello, GlitterDream, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Electric strings, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the New contributors' help page, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Skrillex

[edit]

Hi. Could you please revert your changes to the Skrillex article. The cites you have added are not suitable and do not demonstrate that Skrillex plays a music genre called 'brostep'. I've explained this already on the talk page. Please explain there if you thing differently. Thanks. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 21:45, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Those link to the cites are not mine, they are from other users, I only put the cites for "dubstep" and "brostep", also, why everyone discuss about that? GlitterDream (talk) 21:55, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, it is the cites for "brostep" that I'm talking about in the talk page. They do not demonstrate Skrillex plays "brostep", just that some disparage his music as "brostep". That doesn't make it a genre. --Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:53, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re: New Wave music

[edit]

While most names of music genres are supposed to be lower case, there are exceptions, like New Wave—although I'm not quite sure why either, to be honest. The New Wave music article doesn't appear to have any indication as to why it's capitalized, but still, all occurrences of the term within the article are capitalized (including the title itself), so the capitalization should be preserved in other articles as well.

I applaud your drive to end the irritating capitalisation of 'new wave' (which, if I recall correctly, began as a music press fetish at the time). Indeed, unnecessary caps are one of the main annoyances of Wikipedia. Forza! Rothorpe (talk) 23:17, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

February 2013

[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. I have noticed that some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Unapologetic, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and 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 to seek consensus for certain edits. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 00:56, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Matt & Kim, without providing a source and without establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 04:33, 25 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am not trying to destroy the articles, or give false information, I do the best I can to help that the articles have not misspelled or minimal faults, but you undid my edits in Moloko, and Cults, but in Moloko I only fix the names genres, and on Cults' page they ARE 'noise pop' and 'lo-fi' if you search or listen to their music you will see that, and in Crystal Castles the 'noise', 'bitpop' and 'experimental music' were there way before but someone undid that, I didn't put the genres, indeed I saved some original edits. By the way, I already fixed a lot of the genres adding sources to them, also I study the music and I'm an artist, so I know that but sometimes I can't find a source, if for the rules of Wikipedia is very annoying then I will stop helping.

'Britpop'

[edit]

Note that Britpop is a proper name so should be capitalised. I have therefore undone your change to Suede (band).--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 23:24, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I'm sorry, I thought that all the music genres were not capitalised, I didn't know that Britpop was an exception. GlitterDream (talk) 23:51, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

[edit]

Hi there . It seems like you're doing some good work - it would help, though, if you could provide a little edit summary when doing so, for those of us with pretty long watchlists! Just a simple "dark wave" ---> "darkwave"; or even just "fix genre wikilink" (to leave it generic!); would be helpful! Cheers, Nikthestunned 09:21, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, is a very good idea, from now I will do that. GlitterDream (talk) 23:53, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

May 2013

[edit]

Information icon Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to PBR&B, without providing a source and without establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 19:58, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I will never do that again, but stop writing to me, there are a lot of other users that do worst changes to the articles and nobody do something, in this moment the article Random Access Memories have a lot of genre changes without any source GlitterDream (talk) 00:47, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
