Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did in this edit to Pigbag. Inappropriate links include links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that serve as advertising or promotion. Thank you.

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to Pigbag. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it.

Dr. Calculus
Please understand that Wikipedia has a notability policy as well as a verifiability policy that you must adhere to, so you need to stop trying to add mentions of the obscure mid-'80s pop group Dr. Calculus to articles on Wikipedia. The group's music is not directly related to the articles you've been adding it to, and the group isn't even notable enough to warrant a mention at all, except where it's already very briefly mentioned in the Stephen Duffy and Professor Calculus articles.

It sounds like you've been listening to this music and feel it ought to be mentioned as an overlooked early example of genres it musically resembles. Unfortunately, you're going to have to realize that anyone who listens to a lot of music eventually "discovers" a song or album that bears some resemblance to a genre the artist isn't normally associated with; it's not that uncommon. For such a discovery to be worth mentioning, it needs to be something that got some real press or published academic coverage. See Techno for examples that do get mentioned in an article, because they can be found out in the press, and a good way of writing about them. Then see Talk:Acid house for an example that doesn't get mentioned, because aside from an attention-grabbing headline, the only real press that music got was carefully worded to distance it from the genre in question. —mjb (talk) 03:30, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
