Some general editing advice

Hello and thank you for contributing to Wikipedia!

I noticed your work on Q-Tip (musician) and Mos Def required multiple edits.

Are you aware that you can see a preview of the work you're doing (to check everything looks good, and check spellings and punctuation etc.) before submitting the work to the public?

Just to the right of the Publish changes button, you'll see the Show preview button. By using this to check our work before saving the page, we can keep the page history easier to understand and reduce the possibility of edit conflicts and misunderstandings.

It's good practice to always leave a short comment about what work we did in the edit summary (the text entry field just above the Publish changes and Show preview buttons).

This helps other editors tell at a glance what you have done. Sometimes, without an edit summary, your work may be considered thoughtless or belligerent, and be undone.

Summaries are also especially useful when reviewing page histories, to see without the need to load and visually parse each diff, what each of possibly thousands of edits changed.

Whatever you choose, happy editing! Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 12:25, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

Do not use multiple IP addresses to vandalize Wikipedia, like you did at Havoc (musician). Such attempts to avoid detection or circumvent the blocking policy will not succeed. You are welcome to contribute constructively to Wikipedia but your recent edits have been reverted or removed. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Binksternet (talk) 14:12, 8 August 2019 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on André 3000; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Fred Gandt · talk · contribs 22:36, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
