August 2018

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at Wikipedia:Teahouse, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. General Ization ^Talk 16:09, 8 August 2018 (UTC)

Improving your first article

Hey Sorensongs! I noticed that you recently created your first article. Thanks for your interest in improving Wikipedia's coverage!

Please keep in mind that, generally, all statements and claims within an artilce should be supported by reliable sources, especially secondary sources which are independent of the subject. Although self-published sources from and about a subject are sometimes acceptable, user-generated sources are generally never considered reliable sources. This includes wikis (yes, including Wikipedia!) and other crowdsourced and peer-produced sources. For example, the Discogs sources you used in Gary Schutt are not reliable. These sourcing concerns are especially important in biographies of living persons, since articles about living subjects can impact their lives and careers in positive and negative ways. Moreover, if the unsourced claims are defamatory, that can present legal troubles for those involved.

I have published some changes to the article, created its talk page (permanent link) with some appropriate templates, and created the article's Wikidata item (permanent link) with some basic information. The categories and WikiProjects I added the article in should help attract some editorial attention to it, as well. I also added a {{BLP sources}} cleanup template to the top of the article due to the lack of reliable sources. If you want this template removed, please be sure to start adding reliable sources to the article to support its claims and any new ones you add to it. In its current state, the article honestly may not pass an Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion if anyone were to nominate it (and thus would be deleted), primarily due to the sourcing concerns. It's independent secondary reliable sources which establish notability and will be what is mainly discussed at an AfD when determining whether the article satisfies general notability guidelines, notability for music criteria, and notability for people criteria. With that said, the following may help:

Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

The essay Wikipedia:Advanced source searching may also help. If you want any further assistance, feel free to notify me or ask at the Teahouse. —Nøkkenbuer (talk • contribs) 18:15, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
