Fischer-Z article
Hi, regarding your recent changes to Fischer-Z, as you seem to be new to editing wikipedia and have re-written the entire article, there are some things you should be aware of:
 * The information you add to articles should be verifiable, and ideally would be supported by reliable sources.
 * Some of the content you have added does not have a neutral point of view. e.g. statements such as "2017 is a milestone in the Fischer-Z journey", "one of his most admired indie guitar-style albums. Many songs such as I’m a Reptile and Angel of Gardenia are firm favourites with the fans", and "The title track This is My Universe brings together his music, poetry and philosophy of life to great dynamic effect. He casts a dark and rueful eye over love and marriage in the pop single Just-a-Man and creates a manifesto for the proactive and genuine romantic in Just Like Justice."  These statements are more suited to an album review, not an encyclopedia entry.  They seem to have been written by a fan rather than a neutral observer.
 * Some of the formatting you have used is wrong, e.g. you have put album titles in bold and Italic. The convention is to only have album titles in Italic on an artist page.
 * Because you have re-written the entire article, you have removed hyperlinks to relevant wikipedia pages that were listed, and you have removed some of the references cited. When adding information to an article, you do not usually need to re-write the article from scratch (unless it is poorly written/sourced), but rather, you can add information to the text that already exists.

For the above reasons, I am reverting your edits. I am not doing this to be difficult or to impose what I think the article should be - but what you have written does not meet wikipedia's standards for neutrality and verifiability. Some of the information you've added could be re-instated into the article, though, such as the upcoming 2017 album - although wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and generally it is better to add albums and singles once they have already been released.
