Welcome!

Hello, Mikeoworthy, 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 Lewis Capaldi, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may not be retained.

There's a page about creating articles you may want to read called Your first article. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{help me}} on this page, followed by your question, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

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 Lewis Capaldi 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 band or musician, 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 removed 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.

User of multiple accounts

[edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. I'm Sir Sputnik. I've that noticed that you've been using more than one account over the past few days. Please be aware using more than one account can be quite problematic. Wikipedia editors are generally expected to edit using at most one account. Using a single account maintains editing continuity, improves accountability, and increases community trust, which helps to build long-term stability for the encyclopedia. While there are some valid reasons for maintaining multiple accounts on the project, using multiple accounts for deceptive or disruptive reasons is not allowed. Please familiarize yourself with relevant policy on the matter (you'll find it here), and limit yourself to one account for most purposes. Thank you.

You appear to be relatively new around here, so several things. Reminder that we are on Wikipedia, not in an album booklet. We are not subject to any legal requirement, if any such thing exists, to list an artist's management team and A&R personnel in a personnel section. We're not under a legal requirement to do anything. We don't even have to list album notes. Per MOS:ALBUM: "Some albums have credits for members of management teams, web designers, and artists and repertoire representatives who have little if anything to do with the creation of an album. [...] only report musical and technical personnel who had some direct involvement in the creation of the recording or artwork itself". That's part of our Manual of Style. Your opinion or take on what is apparently required is not the way we do things. Please brush up on what we do before reverting any more editors. Thank you.

[edit]

Hello, I'm TheImaCow. I noticed that in this edit to Lewis Capaldi discography, 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. TheImaCow (talk) 11:05, 17 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
