User talk:Lewiemusic

Welcome!
Hi Lewiemusic, and welcome to Wikipedia! I've written some advice on editing here for students in Prof. Jackson's similar classes at Longy School of Music which you might find helpful. You'll find it here. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page (User talk:Voceditenore), or place here on your talk page, ask your question, and another editor will come along to help. When you leave a message here or on any other talk page, be sure to sign it by typing  ~  (4 tildes with no spaces between them) at the end. When you click save, the Wikipedia software will automatically convert that show your user name and your talk page (with links to them) as well as the date and time when you signed. WP:SIGN has more about all the ins and outs of that.

You might also be interested in WikiProject Classical music and WikiProject Composers. They have various guidelines for articles in this area and talk pages where you can ask advice from editors experienced in writing articles on classical music and related subjects. You'll find these guides particularly useful: WikiProject Composers: Guide to online research and WikiProject Composers: Copyright guidelines. Happy editing and best wishes, Voceditenore (talk) 11:03, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

Draft:Rick Beato
Hi Lewiemusic. Professor Jackson told me that you were wondering how to submit your draft. I've added the appropriate template now. When you are ready, simply click the blue bar labelled "Submit your draft for review!" However, it's going to need a lot more work before it could be accepted. Apart from listings on AllMusic, all the sources in the draft are from the subject himself. Note also that LinkedIn entries cannot be used as references in an article. What you need are independent published sources that write about him and his work in depth. These can be from books, newspapers, magazines, etc., but they cannot be from websites with user generated content, or amateur self-published websites, or blogs. Hope that helps. As for the discographies, I suggest listing only those where he is the performer or songwriter accompanied by appropriate reviews. Hope that helps. Voceditenore (talk) 09:57, 8 April 2020 (UTC)
