January 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to The Battle of Epping Forest has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

The Concert for Bangladesh (George Harrison album)

Hi. Have you considered that a better name for the album might be "The Concert for Bangladesh (album)" since it includes many artists beside Harrison? Just a suggestion. — [[::User:Malik Shabazz|Malik Shabazz]] ([[::User talk:Malik Shabazz|talk]] · [[::Special:Contributions/Malik Shabazz|contribs]]) 23:07, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Genre changing

Hi Krobertj, just here to tell you that genre changes such at this, and a fair few more recent ones, are going to be reverted for being your own point of view. In the afforementioned diff, you state in the edit summary that "Pop is a better description" - who said that? Who decides the genre changes you make? On Wikipedia, everything needs to be backed up with reliable sources, this is especially so for genres. This reduces subjectivity. Do you see my point? To find a genre, why not try looking for sources from music journalists (or organisations, e.g. NME, Q etc.)? This is better than everyone changing a genre to whatever they think is correct :-) - If you need any help with anything on Wikipedia, then feel free to message me :-) Take care!
