Welcome!

Hello, Sirsentence, and welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as Low Country Sounds, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Low Country Sounds requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Rival Sons, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Buchanan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

I don't know if you noticed but before you created RCA Studio A, I had already been working on a draft at Draft:RCA Studio A. I tagged the page you created with the {{inuse}}-template. Please do not eddit it until I remove it again so I can merge both versions. Thank you! Regards SoWhy 15:19, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Sorry I did not notice your draft, only noticed there was absolutely no page to an extremely historical site. I will halt editing it, until you can incorporate your draft into it. Perhaps we can collaborate on its efforts once done. Thank you!Sirsentence (talk) 15:44, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I started the draft because of your Low Country Sound article. I merged all the content now and added a number of references, so feel free to edit again. Btw, if you manage to get your first article over 1500 characters in the next 2 days, we could get both of them on the Main Page via Wikipedia:Did you know. Ping me if you are interested. Regards SoWhy 15:51, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Wonderful. I am definitely interested. I will continue to edit Low Country Sound to meet specifications. So ping!(Hope I did that right.) Sirsentence (talk) 16:02, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Good, good. I will try to check tomorrow. Pinging works by linking to another user's page using wikilinks ([[ ]]). You can either write [[User:SoWhy|SoWhy]] to ping me or use the templates {{u}} or {{re}} (i.e. {{u|SoWhy}} or {{re|SoWhy}}). I have added both articles and your talk page to my Watchlist but with 6000+ pages, I might not see messages without a ping. Regards SoWhy 16:08, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SoWhy Went ahead and finished some more editing to Low Country Sound. According to the toolbar https://xtools.wmflabs.org/articleinfo/en.wikipedia.org/Low%20Country%20Sound, it currently has 1,534 characters thus qualifying it. Let me know. Thanks again for your outstanding help!Sirsentence (talk) 16:47, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

According to the DYKCheck-tool most people use for it, it has 1779 characters, so good work. However, the layout needs some work and information on the building(s) probably should be kept in their articles. I'll do a little cleaning and then check about a DYK nomination. Regards SoWhy 17:23, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the interference, I will tag the page with inuse again when I plan major edits. While your work is quite good, it needs some polishing to meet the requirements for neutrality and style. Regards SoWhy 17:37, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SoWhy Ok, wonderful. Feel free to adjust as you see fit on the Low Country Sound article as I am still familiarizing myself with the boilerplate specifications of articles. Thank you for the links to the wiki guidelines! Also I want you to be aware, I noticed two repetitive paragraphs from your revisions and edits in RCA Studio A, I have to take care of off line biz, so I won’t have time right at moment to adjust, bu I will asap if you cannot get to it right now. Once again, many many thanks. You’re awesome! Sirsentence (talk) 17:47, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Nobody owns any article, so don't worry about editing anything. I would advise though that you place {{inuse}} on the page before you start an editing session to avoid edit conflicts. Btw, I started the nomination at Template:Did you know nominations/Low Country Sound and RCA Studio A. If you have an idea how to create a catchy "hook" (question that starts with "did you know that..." and generates interest in both articles, feel free to comment there. I'll do the necessary review work later and we have to wait for someone else to review it anyway. Regards SoWhy 18:05, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

SoWhy Oh! I understand that. Wikipedia is strictly a collaborative public effort. Tip duly noted. I went ahead and updated those articles and also added two more “Did you know...” questions. I can probably come up with some more, but I think the Chris Stapleton one is pretty decent. Either or, feel free to ping me or let me know if we can do more for it or if you need anything. I appreciate your help you’ve given. Sincerely, Sirsentence (talk) 22:17, 5 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
