Hi! I just wanted to let you know that I've removed the section for music videos that you created for "One Eyed Bastard" (and seemingly copy and pasted into the article for Saviors). This is because you violated a rule which Wikipedia is pretty strict about: Synthesis. Basically, what you did was take information from multiple different sources (one of the music video itself and one of the expiration of Mickey Mouse's copyright) and put them together. However, this falls under original research because you are not a reliable source, and you're essentially introducing your own interpretation into the articles. Nonetheless, I'm always glad to see another editor working on song articles, and I hope that you decide to stick around! Leafy46 (talk) 03:09, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I've read the pages on self-research, but it is easier for me to learn about the nuances of it from experience. I've never been great with taking in information from a wall of text unless it's a subject I'm interested in. I'll apply the knowledge I've learnt from this experience to any future edits.

National varieties of English

[edit]

Information icon Hello. In a recent edit to the page Dave Ulliott, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. HirowoWiki (talk | contribs) 14:20, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
