Hello, I'm CLCStudent. I noticed that you made a comment on the page Morning Song that didn't seem very civil, so it has been removed.

You’re wrong
You’re wrong. Sorry you find the information not “true”. It’s a folklore.... this was a story passed on from generations. Does that mean Paul Bunyan shouldn’t be on here???? Gre8ful D3AD (talk) 22:26, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Cool
I have a 22 year old tell me that I’M disrupting. How about stop deleting my folklore content. Or do you like doing this to people that want to post about their history? I want you to back up your facts as to why you feel it shouldn’t be posted! Gre8ful D3AD (talk) 22:36, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Morning Song. 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 be blocked from editing Wikipedia. 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 lead to a block. Thank you. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 03:28, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

Morning Song
Hi Gre8ful D3AD,

First of all, welcome to Wikipedia! I see that you've been trying to add content to Morning Song, and that's great.

The problem with your edits, and the reason that I reverted again, is that disambiguation pages are meant to redirect readers to other Wikipedia articles. It's OK to add red links, if there is a possibility that an article, or a section of an article, will later be created for that topic. However, there is no article on Wikipedia for the "sailors' folklore" entry which you added, and I could find nothing else, either webpages or on Google Books, which references this folk tale.

That's not to say I don't believe that this folk tale exists -- it may be that it didn't come up for me because I was looking for sources in English, or it's not really a common story, or perhaps it has only been passed down by word of mouth. But if there are no sources, the folklore can't be proved to be notable enough for either an article or (more likely) a section of an article. Unless you can show that there are enough for it to be on Wikipedia someday, there isn't really a reason for it to be added to a dab page.

Finally, I realise you are frustrated with this situation, which I completely understand -- it's never fun creating an account with good intentions and then having your contributions reverted. Please do try to remain civil, though; that's one of Wikipedia's core policies. We're human, like you, and a bit of courtesy makes editing easier for all of us. aboideautalk 19:37, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
