Replacing a Wikipedia article
Welcome to Wikipedia, Kherngren. It is not generally a good idea for newcomers to Wikipedia to try to create a new article straight away, or – what is equivalent – to completely or largely overwrite an existing article with a new version of your own, as you did at Peter Hallström. Unfortunately, I found that your version of this article was not an improvement.

Changes to articles need to adhere to our policies on neutrality and verifiability. Relevant content and references to independent sources should be kept, and any additional information should also be supported by such references. Finally, editors should have a basic knowledge of standard formats used here, which make an article readable and display its connections to other articles.

Before attempting any further large-scale editing I recommend you read Introduction and How to edit, and perhaps work through the Tutorial, to learn more about what is expected of editors.

The other point is that if you have any connection to Peter Hallström, you must declare this fact as described in our conflict of interest policy and should refrain from any further edits to that article, more than minor adjustments. Expanded material may be proposed on the article's talk page, but please be sure to cite your sources. Thank you Bhunacat10  (talk),  20:32, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Dear Bhunacat10, Thank you for welcoming me to Wikipedia! You are right I'm editing for the first time and I am learning. Thanks to you! I don't know how to respond to you so I do it here. Hope it works. I have made it clear that all the quotes have references and sources. I made it clear to anyone such as yourself that I have a connection to Peter to make it transparent. The background of the editing is that the content of the previous text reflects people's view on Peter's work, for instance what genre his working in, what songs he's most famous for, what artists he's mostly working with and in what role he has. Those opinions do not necessarily reflect the truth. So my only intention is to correct what is wrong and write what is the accurate basic story. I do acknowledge all the good intentions people might have with highlighting Peter on Wikipedia. Thanks for that you who did it! And continue please! Sometimes those who know has to do some changes to make it right from the start, as a base. That's what I did. Hope this clarifies the editing. And once again, please continue sharing your stories. Can you please remove the alerts above the text cause it gives the user of Wikipedia a false impression of the text. Thanks!Kherngren (talk) 10:17, 19 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Thank you Kherngren for providing weblinks to the sources listed. I've added dates and details to these, and removed the tag about "citation style".
 * I think you're getting the idea now that Wikipedia is a bit different to other websites and social media where people are free to post their own thoughts and feelings. Information in Wikipedia has to be verifiable from published information, as well as true, so we try not to include anything that just comes from our own knowledge of another person.
 * You do say you are related to Peter Hallström, so I do recommend that if you want to see further changes to the article about Peter, you post on the talk page and use the Edit requests process. Then, more experienced editors will check that the changes are OK and will edit the article itself. That way we can discuss any issues and not get into an "edit war" Bhunacat10 (talk),  13:14, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Dear Bhunacat10, Thanks for coming back and explain! From now on I will be very cautious with our own editing and bigger parts I will go to the Talk page and let others edit. I hope people will continue to add their own experience and info. If we want to add a photo of Peter (what he looks like ten years later), how do we do that?Kherngren (talk) 15:27, 19 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Simplest way of adding a photo is if you can take the picture with your own camera and store it on your computer. Then follow the File Upload Wizard, accepting that you are donating the picture to Wikipedia. Using pictures copied from elsewhere may run into copyright issues – take a look at Uploading images to get an idea of the complications Bhunacat10 (talk),  19:29, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Kherngren, you are invited to the Teahouse!
We know the photograher of the photo we would like to upload. I come back if I have any further questions. Thanks again and have a good day!Kherngren (talk) 11:12, 20 March 2019 (UTC)
