Zappa live and studio

edit

Hi there, thanks for your chronology fixes to the album template on the Zappa album articles. Be careful however when you mark the album type as live or as studio. A case about this matter was opened at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard. See for instance Talk:Frank Zappa/Archive_7#Zappa Template and this DRN. Now this was about live/studio of the discography article and templates, but please note that the infobox types should be backed by reliable sources, and as we know, almost all Zappa albums are a mix of both types. Cheers. - DVdm (talk) 08:47, 18 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Some stroopwafels for you!

Song edits

edit

Please note that Infobox single is no longer used; it has been replaced with Infobox song; see the template details for proper use. —Ojorojo (talk) 14:00, 31 August 2018 (UTC)Reply

Yet, the Infobox single still exists!?! Trombineacoulosse (talk) 11:20, 1 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
It takes a while to replace old templates, but that doesn't mean they should be used in new articles (see the the relevant discussion). Note Template:Infobox single under "Usage":

Live at the Apollo (2018 album) moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Live at the Apollo (2018 album), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. —AE (talkcontributions) 02:43, 9 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Live at the Apollo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Robert Palmer (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at The Lemon 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. - FlightTime (open channel) 23:29, 17 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did on Simple Minds concert tours. This violates Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. - FlightTime (open channel) 16:43, 21 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you add unsourced material to Wikipedia, as you did at Neil Young. - FlightTime (open channel) 21:21, 23 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
