Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Swing the Mood, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 22:47, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Come (album), disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please see WP:PERSONNEL, the forms of participation (for example, instruments) should be written in lowercase. Muhandes (talk) 11:23, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! Muhandes (talk) 11:24, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Flash (Jeff Beck album). Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted. Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. ''This is not a hip hop album: lead singers belong in the 'Personnel' section. And Jimmy Page did NOT sing on this album. Even if your edits are in good-faith, you may understand that adding such flagrantly incorrect information can be interpreted as vandalism.'' Mac Dreamstate (talk) 20:55, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please 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, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Truth (Jeff Beck album), you may be blocked from editing. Again, please read WP:PERSONNEL—credits are listed in lower case, not proper nouns (caps). Mac Dreamstate (talk) 21:00, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. FMSky (talk) 03:23, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Van Halen. - FlightTime  ( open channel ) 18:46, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello
Hi, RonanTheDude,

Our goal at Wikipedia is not to block editors who make mistakes but to have a rich encyclopedia full of reliably sourced articles. To help with that, we have a Manual of Style and content guidelines that help articles be consistent and to decrease disputes between editors who might have very different ideas about what is appropriate in article writing. The best approach is to listen to editors who are bringing complaints to your user talk page and interact with them, rather than becoming defensive or digging in your heels. That is a natural response, as a human being, but it is an unworkable approach in a collaborative editing project like Wikipedia.

There is a learning curve to working on Wikipedia and no one expects new editors to know every policy or procedure that has developed on the project over 20 years. But when an editor who has been around here for years says, "No, that's not how we do things", consider it an opportunity to learn and improve your skills. Every editor and admin on Wikipedia has room for improvement, so try not to take criticism personally. I've been very active here for 8 years and I still get editors coming to my user talk page to point out a mistake they think I've made. Sometimes I'm right, sometimes they are right, but the important thing is to listen, pay attention to other editors and not try to go it alone. It's not easy to be criticized but it's the nature of a project with tens of thousands of editors that there will be different opinions and sometimes disputes. I hope you can learn from it and continue on here as a productive editor, helping us improve the millions of articles on the project.

If you ever have questions about article creation or Wikipedia policies, please bring them to the Teahouse where you can get advice and support. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:39, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi, Ronan here. Thank you for explaining this. I will follow your advice. I don’t do vandalism, just to let you know that. I don’t do it on Wikipedia, I don’t do it on the street, nowhere. Thank you for taking the time to explain this. And yes, I never try to be defensive, but we make mistakes.
