I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Please sign your messages on discussion pages using four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{helpme}} before the question. Again, welcome!

Also, you have good taste in music. Number Seven (album) is one of my favorites. --Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 20:22, 6 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I got your e-mail. Actually, it's easier for me to reply on your talk page since I don't have to fire up an e-mail client. When you send me a new message on my talk page (User talk:Elkman, or the "Elkspeak" link in my signature), I get an orange bar at the top saying that I have new messages. Similarly, you'll get the orange bar on the top of your screen whenever you have a new message on your talk page.

As far as your contributions are concerned, you're doing fine so far. One minor thing is that if you write an article and there are red links, you might want to check the spelling of a link to make sure it goes to the correct page. I think you put the name as Phideaux, Xavier when it should have been Phideaux Xavier, but that's no problem to fix. I was also going to tell you how to add the album infobox, but I see you figured that out already. You might want to see if there are any reviews of the album, like this one on the Dutch Progressive Rock Page, to see what professional reviewers thought of the album. You can take other prog rock album articles on Wikipedia as a guide to what to include.

Finally, you should probably check out Wikipedia:Notability (music) to make sure that any groups or albums you're writing about are notable enough for Wikipedia. Generally, if a prog rock band has been mentioned in non-trivial coverage outside of Wikipedia, then it's notable enough for Wikipedia. I just mention this because some people write articles about their own garage bands and post them here, and then they get deleted. Some prog rock groups can be pretty obscure (like Devil Doll (band)), but they're notable enough to get an article.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Happy editing! --Elkman ^(Elkspeak) 20:29, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Nice to hear from you. There were issues around a particular editor and the Pure Reason Revolution and related articles. I don't know the identity of this editor, and fortunately all that is now behind us. There are cases where band members themselves have edited articles, e.g. Guy Manning.
