Hello, I'm Dan56. I noticed that you made a change to an article, The Weeknd, 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 think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Dan56 (talk) 02:23, 16 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia articles and their text should be based on reliable, secondary sources, and aesthetic opinions in particular should be based on professional critiques, never the opinions of us editors. When I added the material in The Weeknd, I ignored my listening of his music and depended solely on what has been written about. That is the approach others should use when editing this online encyclopedia, so that we adhere to the core principles of verifiability and neutrality. Dan56 (talk) 02:56, 16 February 2013 (UTC)


 * You're right, the source doesnt say "only", and neither does this article. If that's the impression you're getting, then you misreading it. Nobody is waiting for anything. If what you're saying is something worthy of adding, it theoretically should have been written about. Otherwise, it is either not true or important; remember, notability is established by the amount of coverage something has received. If verifiability and notability policies are followed, I can add my own opinion or original spin on The Weeknd's "artistry" as well and add something like "The Weeknd sings in both falsetto and soprano registers". But I'm not, because I am not a qualified source. Dan56 (talk) 03:43, 16 February 2013 (UTC)
