Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu
Unfortunately I have had to remove your addition to the Geoffrey Gurrumul Yunupingu article. Although this was good work and added to the content it did not cite a single published source on which it was based. Wikipedia has strict rules for publishing material on living people and the foremost is that everything said must have been published elsewhere by a respectable source. See Biographies of living persons for a full explanation. I hope this doesn't discourage you from contributing to Wikipedia in the future. Also please don't sign your name to what you write in a Wikipedia article. The articles themselves are the common property and responsibility of the whole project. But do sign anything you write on a discussion page with four tildes ( ~ ), this will automatically insert your username and the date.Lumos3 (talk) 10:50, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

All contributions are welcome but the material you have added to this article does not meet some of Wikipedia's core policies and guidelines, including: I am keen to see the article improve and your contribution is well written but it needs substantial rewriting to stay in the article. The New contributors' help page is a good place to for further advice. Cheers, Mattinbgn\talk 08:48, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
