Tony Bennett
Hi Chris, thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. The reason I reverted the add of your book to the Tony Bennett article is that editors are not encouraged to add their own texts in citation, external links or further reading. It is taken that the editor is promoting their own work rather than improving the article. More information on this can be found at WP:BOOKSPAM, Conflict of interest and COI. If you have any further comments or questions please feel free to leave a message on my talk page. Happy editing. Span (talk) 16:43, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Tony Bennett redux
Regarding your additions to Tony Bennett, you cannot just add text that represents your opinion about his career ("under-rated", "beautiful album", "welcomed by his many fans", etc). Instead, you have to find mainstream, published sources that support what you propose to add. See WP:V, WP:OR, WP:RS for how Wikipedia works in this respect.

A Great Big Thank You!
Chrisphase, thanks for your contribution to the two articles; Kim Carnes discography and Checkin' Out the Ghosts. I added a small reference where it was needed, but it's strange that I literally just came onto Wikipedia to add the information you just added a short while ago! Thanks for saving me time!
