[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to User talk:Sumanuil, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. ——Serial 10:13, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Dark Nights: Death Metal Soundtrack
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Dark Nights: Death Metal Soundtrack requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://bassmagazine.com/artists/mastodon-release-new-track-forged-by-neron-listen. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Onel5969 TT me 14:28, 7 August 2021 (UTC)

- I appreciate that you made an account awhile ago, but you haven't been that active. I also can tell that you're enthusiastic and I am happy to have any new editor who wants to add to the encyclopedia. That said, some of your edits are really inappropriate. This was not a "minor edit" and this was not just fixing a typo. I came across your edits due to this edit which was just bizarre. Why did you add a section for reviews when there is an extensive section for reviews that already includes all of the relevant information? We also don't add external links in the body of an article. And what is this thing about Spotify and Tidal at the end? I'm happy to give you some guidance or direct you to relevant pages (like WP:ALBUMSTYLE), but if you aren't willing to edit in a way that's consistent with what we find appropriate here, it's just going to result in you wasting your time. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:13, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- Hello! This is from my client:
- Hey Christine!
- I received the below note from Korn's management. Do you know of any other ways that we can make this more of a permanent change on Wikipedia?
- Thank you!
- ---------- Forwarded message ---------
- Hey Sarah,
- Is there anything more permanent that can be done via the label side to stop the wiki trolls from changing the genre back to nu metal?

- Sure, happy to help. Is there some kind of information in particular that you want kept on Wikipedia that has been removed? Speaking broadly, the best way to assure that certain information won't be removed is to follow the most core guidelines, such as WP:V and WP:OR (i.e. always cite sources and don't include new theories). There is no way to ensure that any particular claim will never change at all, but many statements stay the more-or-less same indefinitely. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:13, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
