Hello, I'm Binksternet. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Tiwa Savage have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 05:07, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi Izetta
Thanks for your contributions to the Tiwa Savage article. I undid your edit because the info you added was poorly written. You did not include a reliable source to support the info. I visited your userpage and saw that you're Liberian. I am also from Liberia. Welcome to Wikipedia! If you need help editing this encyclopedia, feel free to message me.

Well, no source could be more reliable than the person themself, but when I used Tiwa Savage’s post on her official Instagram account as a point of reference, another editor undid my edit saying “it went against Wikipedia’s rules, and that the reference should come from a second party point and not the person directly involved lest it look like a promo” that’s why i used the other reference instead and it was approved. idk what to do again. Thanks by the way for your work on Wikipedia, went through your works and I have to say you’re really doing a great job Izetta A Kamara (talk) 10:50, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the response Izetta. Secondary sources have more weight than primary sources. There are secondary sources that talked about her upcoming film. I don't think you took time to look for it. Social media links are not generally considered suitable for an encyclopedia. Having said that, the edits you made to the article are relevant though. I hope you stick around on Wikipedia and create some articles. Since you're a fan of Tiwa Savage, maybe you could work on creating an article about her song "Somebody's Son". I can sent you reliable sources to use for the article. You can work on the article in your sandbox and move it to mainspace when its ready. Let me know if you are interested in taking up this offer.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 14:32, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

Okay Versace. Thanks for taking up time to explain things to me, I appreciate it ... and as much as I'd like to, I believe you're a better person to write this article. since I'm still developing my editing skills, and familiarizing myself with Wikipedia's rules, writing a full article'd be a lot. Carry on with this one so I can learn from you, and hope to be ready for the next assignment. Besides you mentioned being in Liberia, Where in Liberia are you? Care to drop your social media handles so we can communicate off here when the need arises.?? Thank you again Izetta A Kamara (talk) 15:46, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't think you should doubt yourself. You can definitely write the article at your own pace. I am currently working on a few articles and won't be able to work on the Somebody's Son article until I am done with those articles. I'd really like to see you work on this article. I am from Liberia but currently live in the U.S. I miss home though and plan on visiting next year. I will send you an email.  Versace1608   Wanna Talk? 16:13, 18 February 2023 (UTC)
