Welcome Dr. Mohammed!
I'm S0091, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

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.

[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Metal Machine Music. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Please stop placing articles into Category:Free jazz that do not mention the phrase "free jazz" (much less cite a source to that effect). Gyrofrog (talk) 03:10, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Gyrofrog, I added categories based on a query I found in PetScan (this query)
- It is never my intention to sabotage articles.
- I offer my apologies to you . greetings to you all . --Dr. Mohammed (talk) 16:33, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation. I wasn't previously familiar with PetScan but, based on what I'm seeing, the query was designed to find articles that are within Category:Instrumental albums, but not included within Category:Free jazz albums. I guess I'm not really sure what the purpose of this query would be (all I could find about it is a description "All pages on English Wikipedia in Category:Instrumental_albums but not in Category:Free_jazz_albums"). Perhaps the query was merely intended to find articles that were within the former, but not the latter (thereby finding some articles that might belong in the latter). But not all (and, really, not many) of these articles belong in the latter. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 19:04, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- Hi again and thanks for the reply Gyrofrog, anyone who will use the query will understand that all articles in Category:Instrumental albums should add Category:Free jazz albums to their articles, I hope this is made clear in the query text so they don't understand Incorrectly . Greetings to you. --Dr. Mohammed (talk) 19:36, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
