[edit]Hello, I'm Magatta. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Trip Switch, 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. Magatta (talk) 23:09, 23 October 2021 (UTC)
Re: Nothing but Thieves
[edit]Hello, Psfinaki. I'm sending this message in response to your message left on my talk page regarding my revert on your recent edit to Trip Switch. Your contribution is greatly appreciated, but the source you provided did not appear to be verifiable, or to be more specific, the Spotify track didn't seem playable when I clicked on the source, and therefore it's not fully clear if the information you added was correct or not, so I've removed it again for now. I also noticed that you had a query on how you can better source this information, here on Wikipedia, we tend to go by what reliable, third-party published sources say. For music-related articles, that typically means professional music journalism, like reviews/criticism, news, and magazines. See WP:RSMUSIC for a comprehensive list of reliable music sources. Furthermore, not everyone who reads on Wikipedia will automatically have a Spotify account/subscription, so it would be much more preferable if you used a source that doesn't require the reader to pay or sign up in order to check the contents of the source. If you have any further questions, then I would recommend asking at the Teahouse. Once again, thank you, and welcome to Wikipedia. Magatta (talk) 14:39, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hello once again. Regarding the source, I've done the best I can - added the point in time in the track where the song author is talking about it. I cannot do anything else - this interview was never printed, just uploaded to Spotify by the band itself. It's unfortunately that you don't have Spotify and cannot verify that but there are billions of people with Spotify who can listen to the damn 1-minute track and verify the words. Also, even though you need to sign up you don't need to pay to just listen this particular thing Psfinaki (talk) 17:31, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Please do not add or change content, as you did at Post-rock, 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. Woodroar (talk) 22:14, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Woodroar. I actually wanted to add some justification but yeah I pressed Ctrl-Enter for a new paragraph and it published the whole thing right away :) Didn't mean it! I added some comments to the related section in the article talk, please see if it makes sense to you. Psfinaki (talk) 22:19, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
- I totally understand, I've done that plenty of times! I left a reply at the Talk page. Woodroar (talk) 22:49, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
