You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia.

[edit] Please do not add or change content, as you did at Pearl Jam, 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. 4TheWynne(talk)(contribs) 06:57, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Mudcrutch. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Spike Wilbury (talk) 19:08, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

[edit] 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 Showbread (band) 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. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary.
While it's clear what you're doing in changing band membership, it's not clear why (and why a summary is useful) or what proof you have for making the change (see the warnings regarding reliable sources in October 3 and 5.
Not to other editors and admins. I elected to use a single-issue warning rather than filing ANI for this behaviour, but we are clearly past level-four warnings here. Walter Görlitz (talk) 20:17, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 25
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Blitz (Krokus album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bass (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:17, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

[edit] Hi RSound! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Odessey and Oracle that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. this was not a minor edit Graywalls (talk) 23:07, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
- I was not aware my edit changed the meaning, only that it further clarified it. RSound (talk) 23:33, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
