[edit]Hello, I'm Largoplazo. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Michael Alig have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Largoplazo (talk) 11:37, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- I can see that it might not have been advertising exactly, but it was written like a PR piece. It took up four paragraphs, an awful lot of space for an overall article on his life giving it undue weight. It seemed written to drum up excitement, and implied that more info would be made available here, as though a Wikipedia article is a place to go to receive up-to-date news on a music release.

- Hi. Thank you for this. Sorry, just wanted to share the news. I guess my writing style is wrong for Wiki. I'll attempt another go ... DML246 2A00:23C6:3312:1501:2928:6BD5:751B:D64D (talk) 11:47, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
