File copyright problem with File:Main-qimg-e712ec2eb674688235ea2cbb05244779-c.jpg
[edit]Thank you for uploading File:Main-qimg-e712ec2eb674688235ea2cbb05244779-c.jpg. However, it is currently missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation.
Also:
This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:V12texaschain01 span-12.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:V12texaschain01 span-12.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 00:30, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Main-qimg-e712ec2eb674688235ea2cbb05244779-c.jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Main-qimg-e712ec2eb674688235ea2cbb05244779-c.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F6 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Salavat (talk) 14:31, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
Problems with upload of File:Chucky 2 (1).jpg
[edit]Thanks for uploading File:Chucky 2 (1).jpg. You don't seem to have said where the image came from, who created it, or what the copyright status is. We require this information to verify that the image is legally usable on Wikipedia, and because most image licenses require giving credit to the image's creator.
To add this information, click on this link, then click the "Edit" tab at the top of the page and add the information to the image's description. If you need help, post your question on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions.

[edit]Hello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Beetlejuice, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and/or verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 02:34, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Hey man im josh. I noticed that you recently removed content from The Beautiful Liar (album) without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

September 2022
[edit]Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to Holding on to You (Twenty One Pilots song), without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 09:14, 23 September 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to Skillet_(band), without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Another warning to please refrain from disruptive editing of genres without explanation or reference. Please see {WP:GWAR} for further info. FCGreg (talk) 05:31, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Led Zeppelin IV. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 21:35, 21 October 2022 (UTC)
The Beautiful Liar (album) moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, The Beautiful Liar (album), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Promo singles
[edit]Per the guidelines at Template:Infobox album, "Do not add specialty- or limited-release singles, such as those supplied to radio stations and music publications, which are often marked as "Promo copy" or "Promotional"." RF23 (talk) 08:21, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to change genres without discussion or sources, as you did at Infinity on High, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 18:24, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- @Binksternet: Can you see my perspective could see how your edits on the other song articles can be perceived as this same disruptive editing that you are (fairly in this case) calling upon other people on? It's frustrating. Rockmusicfanatic20 (talk) 19:15, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Your next step is to talk about the issues on the relevant talk pages. Binksternet (talk) 19:21, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. RF23 (talk) 10:27, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
Blocked
[edit]I was going to give you a warning about not using sources, but then saw you've received many already, and have refused to stop. So your account is blocked for 1 week. After it expires, I hope you decide to start using sources when you add content. If not, you'll find your account will keep getting blocked.
See WP:REFB if you need help with adding sources. Sergecross73 msg me 21:21, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry I didn't know you were sending messages. I'm a bit of an amateur editor. MannyReader (talk) 12:37, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
- I understand, but please keep a better eye on your talk page and notifications, as people have been warning you about this for months now.
- See Help:Notifications fit more information on keeping up with when people are trying to communicate things to you once your block expires. Sergecross73 msg me 15:56, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Bedivere. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of signature songs, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Bedivere (talk) 20:00, 10 December 2022 (UTC)

If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please add better sources in order to add additional signature songs, otherwise (it will be me or someone else) they will be removed. You can use news reports, scholarly (or not) articles, books, magazines. Bedivere (talk) 02:12, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
This is your only warning; if you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising again, as you did at List of signature songs, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. You are not listening. classicrockhistory.com is not a reliable source and should not be used to reference anything. Stop using it or next time I will report you. Bedivere (talk) 04:15, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
- You are not in control here, and how is it not reliable source. And not everything needs a source. Some people just know or just can tell. MannyReader (talk) 15:06, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to List of signature songs, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you. Bedivere (talk) 14:14, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at List of signature songs. Bedivere (talk) 02:29, 21 December 2022 (UTC)

. If you'd like to keep editing Wikipedia, I'd suggest you find something to edit that doesn't involve fiddling with genres. OhNoitsJamie Talk 23:46, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
April 2023
[edit] Hello, I'm FlightTime. Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Monkey Wrench (song) even if you provide a/some source(s), you'll still need to start a discussion on the article talk page to allow editors who regular watch that page a chance to discuss the reliability of the source(s) you provided. One reason is, genre sources can easily be considered an opinion and not fact. Genre's are a touchy subject here on Wikipedia and without discussion/consensus, regardless of your source(s), your addition or removal will most likely be reverted. Your edit has been reverted and archived in the page history for now.
Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 14:55, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genres in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Pray for the Wicked. @Ohnoitsjamie: Still at it. - FlightTime (open channel) 14:58, 14 April 2023 (UTC)

[edit]You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you change genres in pages without discussion or sources, as you did at Red Dragon (2002 film). Sundayclose (talk) 00:37, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Red Dragon (2002 film) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
