Giants of Lovers Rock
Why are you threatening to have me banned from Wikipedia because I'm adding facts relating to Lovers Rock. You say provide proof that a concert series exists, that it is the largest concert pertaining to the lovers rock genre & attracts thousands of concert goers. Would a communication from the venue owners AEG suffice ? Would a communication from the leading artistes attesting to the Concert series importance to the genre suffice ? What evidence do you require ? What evidence did you accept from the subjective viewpoints on the page ? Musical Therapy (talk) 13:46, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
- Simply put, Wikipedia needs reliable sources. If you have them to support your addition, please add them.--Egghead06 (talk) 15:58, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
The article In the Summertime (album) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
No evidence of notability. WP:NALBUM
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Orphaned non-free image File:Mungo Jerry In the Summertime album.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Mungo Jerry In the Summertime album.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:33, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
edit-warring on West Ham
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Replaceable fair use File:Jr-walker-and-the-all-stars-what-does-it-take-to-win-your-love-tamla-motown.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Jr-walker-and-the-all-stars-what-does-it-take-to-win-your-love-tamla-motown.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu
Thank you for your patience with a Wikipedia neophyte!
Respectfully, Pelly Ruddock Mpanzu won't be the first player to go from non-league to the Premier League until he actually plays in the Premier league. He might be the first, but he could also get injured over the summer, or loaned out, or sold, etc. My understanding is that prognosticating about possible future events is to be avoided.
The second reference to this (footnote 25) is also incorrect in a second way, as many players have gone from non-league to the top-flight (as opposed to the Premier League) in the early days when the Football League was composed of fewer levels. In fact, the footnote itself does not claim he is the first to go non-league to top-flight. 96.230.124.115 (talk) 20:20, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi. I see no justification for you latest edit. There is nothing new going on vis-a-vis a transfer for JWP. Lots of rumours and maybe a few offers, but where’s the “news regarding a reported transfer” indicated in the template? Daemonickangaroo2018 (talk) 12:50, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi, isn’t that the whole point of adding this template, to stop people adding rumours and speculation when possible transfers are being discussed for a player? I’m only trying to prevent speculation being added. Remove it if it bothers you, he’ll either be sold or he won’t. My guess is the former. https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/west-ham-have-verbal-offer-rejected-by-southampton-for-40m-star/ --Egghead06 (talk) 13:24, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
If you read the reference itself when you scroll down to the time of the first goal it says it was credited as an own goal and not to Kudus. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:46, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, originally credited at the time as og, then UEFA later changed it to a Kudus goal hence the goals listed at the top but I agree, there are references which still say og.--Egghead06 (talk) 15:49, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
- I updated the article with a reference from West Ham United which claims it is an og. Has it been officially changed to two goals for Kudus? ThaddeusSholto (talk) 15:52, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay
Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.
Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Vandalism revert
Hi, you accidentally re-added the vandalism at Special:Diff/1222887386, I'm guessing this was an accident. I just removed it completely! Chaotıċ Enby (talk · contribs) 15:10, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
There's one thing I absolutely hate about some Wikipedian's and that's how seriously they take themselves, particularly when it comes to the sourcing of information. You've reverted edits on this page, (Jay Mingi), claiming them to be in someway or another 'unsourced' and several times at that, even though it is very easily discoverable through nothing more than a quick Google Search, which would show official announcements by both clubs and similar reports from trusted football media outlets that the player will indeed be under contract at his subsequent new club Stockport County F.C., once the Summer Transfer Window opens, following his permanent transfer from Colchester United F.C. whom he played for previously last season. This is something which is also very evidently co-oberated by countless individuals as several other editors beforehand have made these same adaptations that I did, and over on the Colchester United F.C. page, he has also been removed from the Roster, which previously shows that the information which I correctly entered, even if it is somehow 'unsourced', still remains validated by other individuals, and should therefore not be reverted under any circumstance whatsoever. The only somewhat claim you have that my input was supposedly 'unsourced' is in relation to the fact that I listed Centre-Back as an additional position, and reflected this in his description, but this is no different from the fact which was previously allowed that he is a Midfielder, which is also technically unsourced, but likewise very factual.
So, I recommend perhaps heed my advice here, and some of other people below, and stop messing with our pages. Ill-justified Moderation is a form of Vandalism, so i.e stop being a dick.
User:Sinnz at 06:26 9th June 2024 (UTC)
- Please see WP:BURDEN. Basically, if you add it, it’s your responsibility to source it. Not hard, is it?--Egghead06 (talk) 05:31, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- You've reverted something factual on eight occasions, something which SEVERAL individuals can co-oberate as they too have made the exact edits I did, aka It's not unsourced if several can equally testify its validity. Regardless though, if the fact this player has also at times played as a Centre-Back is unsourced, then why is he listed as a Midfielder?, Because that's equally as unsourced, just as is the listed position of literally every single other player in all sports on the entirety of Wikipedia, so why don't you bugger off them pages as well, at least be consistent.
- And plus, no other editor, reader, whatever, has complained, you're the only one, so if it's that a big of a deal then why don't you source it? (and I definetly won't delete your citation immediately afterwards)
- Honestly man, pages for lower league football are struggling as it is because there isn't enough people committed enough to keep them up to date, where there is, this happens. Is something quote-on-quote 'unsourced' any less factual than something out-of-date? Sinnz (talk) 05:45, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Please see Wikipedia:Citing sources. It’s very helpful for new editors.--Egghead06 (talk) 06:03, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
