Hello. I see that you removed the same referenced content to the Don't Stop Believin' article back in September 2015 in favor of your own original research.[1] We don't substitute original research for referenced content from reliable sources. I have restored the content again, for the second time, here.[2] Do not restore your original research again. Doc talk 12:07, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Don't Stop Believin'. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You are removing referenced material in favor of your own original research. Keep it up and you will be blocked.

You know, if you do a bit of searching you can find articles that address parts of what you're trying to add.[3], [4], etc. The burden is on you to provide acceptably sourced material if you want it added here. Your addition: "The song includes a reference to the south side of Detroit, Michigan ("Born and raised in south Detroit"). This has been misconstrued by some as being a reference to a non-existent city named "South Detroit" as well as other areas that lie south of Detroit." is 100% original research. You have no source to back any of that up. You are basically the source, and that is absolutely unacceptable. You need to work on referencing your content if you want it to remain.
