Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type  here on your talk page and someone will try to help. To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Mypage/sandbox&action=edit&preload=Template:User_Sandbox/preload create your own personal sandbox] for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put  on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Projected, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. ''By leaving the link to rock music but having the piped text read "heavy metal" a reader would assume that they would read about heavy metal and instead be reading about rock music. That is called an WP:EASTER egg. Also, we use generic genres in the lead, and based on what is present in the infobox, rock is more appropriate than metal.''

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Projected. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. ''Please stop adding WP:EASTEREGGs and removing content, all without explanation. It's problematic.''

 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

You are temporarily blocked from editing the Projected page due to edit warring. Please actually discuss your concerns on the articles WP:TALKPAGE rather than continually undoing others work with vague edit summaries. Thanks. Sergecross73  msg me  21:45, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

So clearly no freedom of speech is allowed ?! 22Bruinsdude (talk) 22:11, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Correct. Read WP:FREESPEECH. For someone so quick to try to cite it, you really ought to know it doesn't apply to scenarios like this. Sergecross73   msg me  23:13, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You're blocked from editing the page again, because you're still doing this wrong. Do you still not even understand the problem? It's not even about what genre is right or wrong. It's that you're writing it the wrong way. You're only changing half the texts, so you make it read "heavy metal", but then it still links people to the rock music article when they click on the blue link for the term. That's fundamentally incorrect, and it's incredibly concerning that you don't understand this after like 5 explanations and 10 days to think about it.
