Welcome!

Hello, Xffactor, 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 Single White Female (Tairrie B album), 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, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically produce your name and the date. If you have any questions, check out Wikipedia:Questions or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome! --ZhongHan (Email) 09:32, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Single White Female (Tairrie B album) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a musical recording which does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, and where the artist's article has never existed, has been deleted or is eligible for deletion itself. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. --ZhongHan (Email) 09:32, 6 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Radio (Yelawolf song) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:MUSIC as uncharting modern song

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Heart (band), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bad Attitude (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Citing sources

[edit]

Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, adding content without citing a reliable source, as you did to Lita Ford, is not consistent with our policy of verifiability. See the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia constructively. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources, please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ChakaKongtalk 03:00, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When citing sources to confirm the information you are adding, it is essential that those sources actually verify the material being added. That is not the case with the source you cited in Lita Ford. Misleading citations are regarded as deception and this practice should be avoided. Thanks. ChakaKongtalk 19:58, 8 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent edits

[edit]

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 15:38, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

re: Lita Ford

[edit]

Your edit was reverted because your "source" did not point to any information which could verify the information you were attempting to add. That particular page made absolutely no mention of Lita Ford, let alone awards she's won. ChakaKongtalk 15:48, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It absolutely did not. Here is the exact source you cited: [1]. As I said, no mention whatsoever of Lita Ford. Perhaps the information you refer to is contained somewhere on that website, but what you provided is quite insufficient. ChakaKongtalk 21:28, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
A discussion on the RSN Noticeboard has concluded that rockonthenet.com is not a reliable source and cannot be used to source your claims. Perhaps Lita Ford did receive a Grammy nomination or two, but if she did you'll have to find a reliable source to prove it. I've searched myself and I cannot find sources. Good luck.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Philly Stand Up Single.jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Philly Stand Up Single.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:20, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Arrested Development (group), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Unplugged.

Information icon Hello, I'm Doniago. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, 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.
