25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Sergecross73. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, 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.  Sergecross73 msg me 02:08, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

:You, and MFTP Dan think is my fault? BigStoneonWiki (talk) 11:09, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
::Edits like this ↗ are not acceptable, because you did not add a source when you added a music genre, and your edit summary seems to indicate you added it because of your personal interpretation, which is not acceptable because it violates our policy of no original research ↗.
::You must add a source every time you add a music genre (or any content). If you do not stop this, your account may be temporarily blocked from editing, so take the time to learn this. Read WP:REFB ↗ for more help on it. Sergecross73 msg me 11:51, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
:::No, please don't BigStoneonWiki (talk) 13:26, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
::::As long as you stop what you're doing and start following the rules I outlined, then nothing will happen. Sergecross73 msg me 14:08, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
:::::The music genres? BigStoneonWiki (talk) 14:22, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
::::::Yes. You must add a source every time you add a music genre. You may not just go by your own personal opinion. Sergecross73 msg me 14:31, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
:::::::I like hard rock, I am a fan of heavy metal, and hard rock BigStoneonWiki (talk) 14:31, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
::::::::Hey, me too. But you've still got to use sources, even when you're a big fan. Sergecross73 msg me 14:55, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
:::::::::Yeah, friend, but how I can use sources? BigStoneonWiki (talk) 15:01, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
::::::::::Here, I kept tabs on this situation. Since you asked, I'll show you an example of an existing source. When we argued about Money for Nothing (song) ↗, this article by The Daily Review ↗ says, "The opening tracks are pretty conventional pop-rock ↗ chart shooters". Since this is in the plural, and "Money for Nothing" is track two on the album, in this case it is fair game to use to describe the song. '''mftp dan''' oops 15:14, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres ↗, as you did to :Edge of Seventeen ↗, 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. Doctorhawkes (talk) 12:04, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Paramount Pictures ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hollywood ↗. 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) 19:53, 2 December 2025 (UTC)

December 2025

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Woodlot. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Nevada Smith ↗, but you didn't provide a reliable source ↗. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable ↗. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation ↗, your edit is archived in the page history ↗. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. On Dec 26, 2025, you left this message: "Hey, @Woodlot, did you edited?" I assume you are referring to a revert of content that you added to the Nevada Smith ↗ article on December 26. Yes, I reverted that content because it was unsourced. See WP:VERIFY ↗ – "People must be able to check that facts and claims in Wikipedia articles are not just made up. This means each fact or claim must be attributable to reliable, published sources...Even if you are sure something is true, it must have been previously published in a reliable source before you can add it."  Thanks. Woodlot (talk) 14:53, 27 December 2025 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not add or change content, as you did at :Fairy Tail ↗, without citing a reliable source ↗. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources ↗ to see how to add references to an article. Thank you. Xexerss (talk) 16:57, 2 February 2026 (UTC)

Tom Nardini ↗ edit

I have reverted your addition of an unsourced date of birth to Tom Nardini ↗. In addition to Wikipedia's basic principle of citing sources (Wikipedia:Citing sources ↗), a special need for citations applies with regard to elements of a biography of a living person (WP:BLPPRIVACY ↗). Feel free to add a date of birth when it is accompanied by a citation to a reliable, published, non-primary source. Eddie Blick (talk) 00:13, 27 March 2026 (UTC)

:Well, people wanna to know of his birthday, if he die, won't know about birthday, @Teblick BigStoneonWiki (talk) 08:32, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
::You may be correct about people wanting to know his birthday. I won't disagree about that. As I pointed out in my previous post, however, Wikipedia has certain policies, guidelines, and requirements about elements of a biography of a living person. You are welcome to put a date in the article if you provide a citation to a reliable, published, non-primary source to support the date. Eddie Blick (talk) 13:21, 27 March 2026 (UTC)
:::In the info box?, @Teblick BigStoneonWiki (talk) 01:41, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
::::The same rules apply there. Content in an infobox needs to be properly sourced, preferably in the text of the article, but if not there it needs a citation in the infobox. Eddie Blick (talk) 01:46, 28 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::Well if he dies, then don't know his birth, @Teblick BigStoneonWiki (talk) 02:24, 28 March 2026 (UTC)

25px|alt=Warning icon ↗ Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced ↗ content, as you did at :Fairy Tail (TV series) ↗, you may be blocked from editing ↗.  Xexerss (talk) 09:23, 9 May 2026 (UTC)

:::@BigStoneonWiki I know I am late to the party here, but this must be stated to you: Abide by WP:CIVIL ↗ conduct when talking directly to other editors. Yes, even the ones you disagree with during an editing dispute. That attitude of yours will not get you very far on this website. Xexerss is a very conducted and respected editor on WP:A&M ↗, and I do not appreciate how you are treating him regardless of the topic. --GalaxyFighter55 (talk) 09:20, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

::::::Maybe you should mind your own business, and back off BigStoneonWiki (talk) 08:17, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
:::::::@BigStoneonWiki Wikipedia is a collaborative project, we all have to work together here. It's also built on five central pillars ↗, concepts that are so important that they are part of Wikipedia itself.
:::::::One of those pillars is civility ↗. Nobody is going to listen to the points you're trying to make, if you're unable to discuss things calmly and politely. All they'll see is you being hostile and everything else you've said just falls by the wayside and may as well not exist.
:::::::Going forwards, you need to decide whether you're going to treat other editors politely and respectfully, or cease using this website.
:::::::Those are your two choices, there are no others. Blue-Sonnet 08:33, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
::::::::Not my fault, I am trying fix and edit better, someone is lying BigStoneonWiki (talk) 10:18, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
:::::::::Please don't accuse someone else of lying unless it's absolutely clear that this is the case.
:::::::::In line with the civility policy, we need everyone to avoid personal attacks ↗ or casting aspersions ↗ - if there's a chance that there's just a misunderstanding, please begin by presuming ↗ it's a misunderstanding. If it isn't, that will become clear to everyone over time.
:::::::::I also need to push back on your statement that it's not your fault, we're all responsible for what we write on Wikipedia.
:::::::::If you feel you're getting angry and find it difficult to write calmly, just step away from your computer for 5-10mins & come back later. Wikipedia will be here when you get back. Blue-Sonnet 10:34, 20 May 2026 (UTC)
