Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Cardiffcity123! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on or by typing helpme at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful: I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or place helpme on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!  Lourie Pieterse  12:21, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit that you made to the page 2010 FIFA World Cup has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Please use the sandbox for testing any edits; if you believe the edit was constructive, please ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing for further information. Thank you. Fieldday-sunday (talk) 23:21, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Example (musician). Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges. Thank you.

 * Hi, the names that I put in “associated acts” are all artists that Example has worked with on multiple occasions (which is what you stated previously) so I don’t see how that’s breaking the rules? Also, Don Diablo has only worked with him on one occasion as far as I’m aware. Cardiffcity123 (talk) 00:03, 6 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Don Diablo collaborated on "Hooligans", "Pussycat Too" and "Instant Replay". You added Calvin Harris who only did "We'll Be Coming Back". Binksternet (talk) 00:13, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Do productions not count? “We’ll Be Coming Back” yes, but what about “Time Machine” and “Some Nights Last For Days”? Cardiffcity123 (talk) 10:03, 8 July 2020 (UTC)


 * With producers who are not listed along with the artist in the song's main title credits, it starts to get less important to show them as associated acts in the infobox. But if music reviewers keep mentioning the artist and the producer together, then that bumps it back up toward being a significant association. Binksternet (talk) 12:14, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

So basically you’re making your own rules up then. I don’t see how they’re not associated if they work together in any means on multiple occasions. Cardiffcity123 (talk) 13:11, 8 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I was offering my interpretation. For the rules you would want to pilot your browser over to Template:Infobox musical artist. It specifically uses the word "acts", which means performers who work in front of an audience. I wouldn't call a producer an act. Binksternet (talk) 13:26, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
