Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Music Tribe has been reverted. Your edit here to Music Tribe was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08yTRb69AVw&feature=youtu.be) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. music or video) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy, as well as other parts of our external links guideline. If the information you linked to is indeed in violation of copyright, then such information should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file, or consider linking to the original. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 08:49, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to Behringer—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Materialscientist (talk) 09:31, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Behringer, you may be blocked from editing. Popcornfud (talk) 01:30, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Managing a conflict of interest
Hello, Pirategads. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Behringer, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the request edit template);
 * disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Conflict of interest);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. bonadea contributions talk 08:36, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that in this edit to Behringer, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. 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. Materialscientist (talk) 09:14, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Pirategads, the problem with your edits is that they are so obviously non-neutral. "From a “kitchen-table startup” to one of the largest and most successful pro-audio companies in the World"--that's straight from the brochure, or at least it sounds like it. "In 2013, Behringer X32 has won prestigious MIPA award" is not only not well written (grammatically), but also contains the buzzword "prestigious", and what are we talking about anyway? An award from the Midwest Independent Publishers Association? Plus, the sourcing is a press release, which isn't acceptable here. I hope I don't have to explain that "Music Tribe is an incredibly fun-loving tribe of 4,000 wonderful people brought together by the ultimate passion for music. Its sole purpose is to empower the customers to become the most creative they can be" is completely unacceptable in an encyclopedia. Please adhere to our guidelines--and if you do have a conflict of interest (doesn't matter whether you get paid or not, for instance), you need to declare that, because right now it looks like you have one, and you're headed for a block. And that is besides the unexplained edits and the edit warring. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 16:48, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * And please explain what [User:Zagadix]] is all about. Materialscientist, I wonder what you'd make of this--and while we're at it, see the history of Pirategads user's user page. Drmies (talk) 18:00, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
