Hello, I'm Chip123456. I noticed that you made an edit concerning content related to a living (or recently deceased) person, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source, so I removed it. Wikipedia has a very strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate and clear. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you! Chip123456 16:03, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Talib Kweli, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you!

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Talib Kweli, you may be blocked from editing. ''In particular, the term "murder" should not be used without a reliable source to call it such. All the sources currently in related articles don't support the term.'' —C.Fred (talk) 23:15, 11 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Fine. I'll leave "death" but just leave the As Featured List. I was asked to put it there. No reason to keep deleting that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heather - Dream (talk • contribs) 17:55, 12 January 2016‎ (UTC)
 * Asked by whom? I don't see any evidence of discussion at the talk page showing consensus to add the list. —C.Fred (talk) 20:28, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

I was asked outside of Wikipedia to do so.


 * If you were asked by Kweli or a party connected to him, then you now have a conflict of interest with the article and should follow those guidelines. You're not prohibited from editing the article, but you need to edit very carefully and make sure you back additions up with reliable sources. —C.Fred (talk) 20:25, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

What I added was a list of songs, why do I need a source for that?


 * Regardless of whether you have a conflict or not, you should not try to add the list any more. Instead, start discussion at Talk:Talib Kweli to see if you can get support for the change. —C.Fred (talk) 20:27, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

1. I reverted it back to an old version to get back the As Featured Artists List and forgot that it was changed. 2. it was a murder. 3. Funny how I linked the source to Mike Brown's page and it was taken down unnecessarily. 4. Out of curiosity, what authority do you have? This isn't meant to sound rude I am really just curious.


 * Replying to your points:
 * You should've checked before blindly reverting. Even so, it's undue weight to add his AFAL discography; that should have its own article or be a section of his discography article.
 * According to what source? I don't see how it can be called that when there's been no conviction for murder, much less charges filed. Criminal terms like murder have very specific meanings; it is not Wikipedia's place to apply labels like murder. Further, it's a violation of WP:BLP to call it murder, since it implies the killer is a murderer—which he has not been convicted of, much less charged with. (That said, there's probably something to be said that there should have been a murder indictment, but that's opinion and doesn't reflect what's actually happened.)
 * I don't see where you've edited the article about the killing of Mike Brown at all, so I don't see where you added a source there.
 * All editors are charged with making sure Wikipedia policy stays applied, so I have the same authority as any other user.

Your recent editing history at Talib Kweli shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. —C.Fred (talk) 20:27, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Edit warring
You appear to be involved in an edit war on Talib Kweli. This means that you have added material that other editors have disagreed with. When your edits were reverted, you merely replaced them, over and over. Wikipedia has a three-revert rule: you only get to revert others' edits (including edits where they have removed your material) three times; any more than that and you can be blocked to prevent further disruption. Since multiple editors have expressed concern over this material, your proper response is to take the matter to the talk page and try to build consensus for your edits. I have reverted your last edit one more time. If you replace it, I will have to report your actions to the proper administrative venue. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 21:15, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
 * I added a source instead of you all just taking it down maybe tell me why I can't leave the list up there. I put a source to Kweli's website where one can find this list. There is no reason to continually threaten to block me when I have YET to get a proper explanation for why you people keep taking down the "As Featured Artists" list.
 * Kweli's own website is not considered a reliable source for this information, because the source is not independent of the subject. But sourced or unsourced, once your change was reverted, you should have opened a discussion about it rather than continually going against the opinions of at least four other editors. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 23:59, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

to be fair, when no one gives you an explanation as to why its hard to see why they keep changing it. Still should be on the page. No reason for it to need a source just like discography doesn't need one.
 * I agree, you were not given very good advice, which is why I chose to contact you. If you think it should be on the page, make your case at Talk:Talib Kweli. There is already a discussion of the matter ongoing there. WikiDan61 ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:33, 15 January 2016 (UTC)
