Please do not add hoaxes to Wikipedia, such as you did in the article Illumination (Stratovarius album). Hoaxes are caught and marked for deletion shortly after they are created. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia – and then to correct them if possible. Please do not disrupt Wikipedia in an attempt to test our ability to detect and remove such material. Feel free to take a look at the five pillars of Wikipedia to learn more about this project and how you can make a positive impact. Thank you.

Illumination hoax
[edit]Where are your sources for this "new" album? It is widely documented that Elysium is the name of their upcoming work. If you keep on adding to this hoax article, Wikipedia staff will have to get involved and they may give you further warnings or a ban. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 15:08, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
Please provide a specific link for this Helsingin Sanomat source and I'll look into it. I speak Finnish and will be able to determine whether or not it actually pertains to Elysium or is indeed a misprint. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 15:15, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
I have looked at the user "ggonza43"'s posts on the Stratovarius forums, and they have said nothing genuine regarding "Illumination", nor posted any links. There is clearly no such album in the works, as all media documentation has referred to the new album as Elysium. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 15:21, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
If, as you so enthusiastically claim, another new album is released in March 2011, then I will be more than happy to create an article for it. However, it will only be done so with verifiable sources and solid release dates. Since you were unable to provide neither, I do hope you understand the reasons for its deletion at this time. It's just how Wikipedia operates—sources in English are mandatory. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 15:38, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

This is your last warning; the next time you create an inappropriate page, as you did at Illumination (Stratovarius album), you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Rambo's Revenge (talk) 15:29, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
(Sorry for repeating myself also here, but the "source" can not be found.) Search (which includes the digitized version of print magazine, all articles/news they have relased both online and in the newspaper) didn't find any matches for Stratovarius from the last month: http://www.hs.fi/arkisto/haku?free=stratovarius&date=20101028 And two matches from the last 12 months, nothing to do with this "album": http://www.hs.fi/arkisto/haku?pageNumber=1&free=stratovarius&date=20091128&advancedSearch= 82.181.200.122 (talk) 15:36, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

You and I both know that you did not find that image on Google—you merely made it yourself, just like your earlier "Illumination" hoax. You've even admitted to doing so on a public forum, namely here and here. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 19:16, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
