Hi Freakout2003! Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia.

We hope to see you there!

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at Let's Go to Bed (The Cure song), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Robvanvee 04:37, 23 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did on Tabloid Junkie. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Continue with these unsourced date changes and I assure you, your tenure at Wikipedia will be short lived. Robvanvee 16:04, 24 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genres in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Trout Mask Replica. I have asked you repeatedly, here, at my talk page and in every edit summary and you continue with the unsourced genre's & date changes. An admin is not going to be as patient with you when they revoke your editing privileges. Robvanvee 05:46, 26 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 36 hours for persistently adding unsourced or poorly sourced content. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Ad Orientem (talk) 04:44, 29 January 2020 (UTC)Reply
This needs to stop. You have received multiple notes and warnings which you appear to have ignored. If this resumes once your block expires, you are likely to be re-blocked indefinitely. -Ad Orientem (talk) 04:45, 29 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Welcome Freakout2003!

Now that you've joined Wikipedia, there are 47,584,167 registered editors!
Hello Freakout2003. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Ad Orientem, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the   button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

  Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to Tomorrow Never Knows, without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 22:24, 2 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for persistently making disruptive edits.
If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Ad Orientem (talk) 04:28, 4 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
