Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Keithyhuntington. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. 331dot (talk) 08:34, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

July 2021

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Tooth & Nail Records discography does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

About that new date...

... in Tooth & Nail Records discography [2]. Do you have a source for it? Yappy2bhere (talk) 21:43, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have zero idea of how this talk page works. is this visible? is this like... a communal HTML page?? who knows. but i attributed the change. didnt notice the box for notes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keithyhuntington (talk • contribs)

Your talk page is like your public inbox on Wikipedia. See WP:TALKPAGE for detailed information on talk pages. Speaking of talk pages, as an editor who may have a conflict of interest with the articles you've been editing, if that is the case please do not edit the articles directly but request edits to those articles from the linked talk page for each article thanks. -- Longhair\^talk 05:02, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

i have no conflicts of interest as far as i know... just a silly internet screen name i started using 23 years ago. no more, no less. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keithyhuntington (talk • contribs)

Liner notes are an acceptable source. I added the source you cited in this revision, using this template. I used the album title as the booklet title; if they're not the same please change "title=" in the reference to the booklet title. I omitted the day. "November 1993" is a perfectly good date, and "November 23, 1993" reconstructed from memory is original research which isn't allowed here. Yappy2bhere (talk) 08:35, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The "Edit summary" is the box where you attributed your change. If all you had was the picture above then you'd never find it, but that's what it is.
Your Talk page is visible to everyone, and can be edited by anyone (with or without a WP account). It's communal in the sense of a whiteboard on a dorm room door--it's nominally yours but really it's there for the convenience of others. Unlike a whiteboard whatever's been written on your Talk page persists in the Talk page History after it's erased. Yappy2bhere (talk) 09:37, 25 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Associated acts

Template:Infobox_musical artist#associated acts states that associations are only to be "professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career". It's not designed for label-mates, bands where one member or another was in the other group, or that had a similar sound. If the acts you added had actual associations with the band in question, it should be clearly discussed in the article with references. Walter Görlitz (talk) 23:32, 24 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To respond to your edit summary more than your talk page comment, it is important to not overdo it when adding descriptive material. Whilst it's not against Wikipedia rules or policy, there is a side rule that does apply that I think you should read - Undue Weight. If you put too much into the character development it can unbalance the article with regard to actual in ring activity. Also as a note, adding notes about entrance music could be against the rules relating to trivia. Oh, and please - when you leave a message on a talk page don't forget to add the four tildes at the end? Addicted4517 (talk) 12:12, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

thanks for clarification. i agree somewhat, thats why i trimmed some of my entries afterward for at least to appear there is a semblance of brevity. i'm done adding historical data at this point anyway. :)
