Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(Broken clamshells•Otter chirps)} 05:58, 6 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll say it again. Please add an edit summary to your edits, so that other editors know why you're making an edit. It's also a good way to avoid disputes over an edit. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • ^{(Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP)} 06:10, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keith Whitley

On 13 December 2008 you changed Keith Whitley's birth year to 1954.

I changed it back to 1955.

Kentucky Headhunters

"The Kentucky Headhunters is" is proper grammar, since it's the title of the band. "Are" would be acceptable in British English, which is generally used only on British subjects (e.g. "Queen were an English rock band").

R. Budd Dwyer

I noticed that you changed "Please leave if this will affect you" to "Please leave if this will offend you." I think if might be affect but I could be wrong. Are you sure it's offend? I suppose I can always rewatch the event to verify, I prefer not to watch the video if I don't have to. Please let me know what you think. Thank you.

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 02:10, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

January 2011

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary, which you forgot to do before saving your recent edit to Jake Owen. Doing so helps everyone understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. Please start using edit summaries when editing. Thanks. EnDaLeCoMpLeX (contributions) • (let's chat) 01:36, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning; the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Jake Owen, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. USE AN EDIT SUMMARY WHEN YOU EDIT! If you keep changing the director name without a reason, it will NEVER stay. EnDaLeCoMpLeX (contributions) • (let's chat) 16:51, 1 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello.

I would just like to straighten a few things out regarding the messages you have sent me. First of all, the Deaton-Flanigen Productions company has long been referred to as simply Deaton Flanigen. If you ever watch the CMT channel or even visit its website, you will see many of the videos that they have directed crediting themselves as "Deaton Flanigen," so I do not understand why it is considered "changing" the director name when I was only just shortening it to how they are credited as, and I am also taken aback at the fact that you would consider it vandalism. Secondly, I actually do not even know how to properly use the edit summary. I have even tried to use it after you sent me the first message, so I do not know what went wrong there.

If there is any way we can isolate this problem, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Using the edit summary is simple. It's the box at the bottom of the editing box. You just leave a brief summary to explain the edits you have done on whatever page you're working on.

Thanks! I will try it once more. If it does not go through, I may have to be shown an actual example to make sure that I am doing it right.

1zackman (talk) 00:55, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have just used the edit summary on the Jake Owen article in the Music Videos section. I am hoping that it works. Thanks again!

Wonderful! You're welcome.

Actual birthdates

Thanks for letting me know about Keith Whitley. I noticed there are a few country artists whose birth years have been disputed, most notably Collin Raye. Thanks again. David829 {talk} 18:44, 5 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Boy Howdy

That would be original research. There needs to be a written source saying that the song was sped up for the radio edit. Not "But I heard it with my own two ears". Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Otters want attention)} 15:48, 25 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I would say just go ahead and put it back in the singles table. --Caldorwards4 (talk) 03:52, 30 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Per this discussion, "deceased" should not be in the infobox — the field is only supposed to have names in it. If you see in any other article, please remove it. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 02:19, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
