Insert content

Hello Michig (talk). You did a great job at finding all those references. It is really up to you to make improvements to this article. I inserted the references which prevented the deletion of the article, but it's up to you to provide the content since I do not know anything about this band. You can see that I put all your references together in one place. What you need to do now is to go back and place a factual statement that is supported by the reference. Listing the references above is not very helpful to the reader of your article. You have to describe the information that the reference provides. I will go back and leave a note or indication where the content should be inserted before the reference. You will only see this in the editing window. For example:

<ref> {{cite web | title = The Days, King Tuts, Glasgow | publisher =Herald Scotland | url = http://www.heraldscotland.com/the-days-king-tuts-glasgow-1.908743 | accessdate = 2014-10-10 }} </ref>

A STUPID example of a statement contained in the reference immediately following, "The band plays loudly some claim." <ref> {{cite web | title = The Days, King Tuts, Glasgow | publisher =Herald Scotland | url = http://www.heraldscotland.com/the-days-king-tuts-glasgow-1.908743 | accessdate = 2014-10-10 }} </ref>

Of course I don't know if the band plays loudly and that is documented in the reference that follows the statement. You cannot insert your own opinion into the article. You can only reference statements made by others. Also remember this is an encyclopedia and so you have to write the article as it would appear in an encyclopedia. Your opinions may be very valid and I certainly trust what you say more than what I think. But that doesn't mean you get to put your opinions in the article.

Also, the article states that the band dissolved in 2009. But yet, in another place in the article that has one of the band members listed as being in the band until 2010. This is inconsistent, I guess.

Like I said, this article could be very good and I hope you can help make it that way. Good luck, and keep on editing. I think you could make some significant contributions to Wikipedia.

Best regards,

I haven't put any opinions in the article. I don't remember editing that article. I don't know anything about the band other than what is in the sources I found. I kind of thought I'd already made some significant contributions to Wikipedia, but thanks anyway. I'll see if I can improve the article when I have time. --Michig (talk) 16:20, 11 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
