Your contributed article, Bill "Peg Pants" Beach
[edit]Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Bill "Peg Pants" Beach. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Bill Beach. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Bill Beach - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. ALI nom nom 18:30, 22 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Bill "Peg Pants" Beach has been reverted.
Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4VluMeOdhU (matching the regex rule \byoutube\.com). If the external link you inserted or changed was to a media file (e.g. a sound or video file) on an external server, then note that linking to such files may be subject to Wikipedia's copyright policy and therefore probably should not be linked to. Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file. Video links are also strongly deprecated by our guidelines for external links, partly because they're useless to people with slow internet connections.
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) 19:34, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for your kind assistance.Bonniejanern (talk)Bonniebeachrn
If anyone can give me advice on how to remove the citation tag, I would be so grateful. In looking at other biographies about musical figures of similar stature, I feel that my references meet the guidelines. However, as always, I am appreciative of any advice that you and your staff can provide to me. With regards, Bonniejanern (talk) 02:09, 28 January 2010 (UTC)Bonniejanern.
I just finished adding compilation works, recent radio broadcasts and couple of external links. I researched other similar musicians, and I mimmicked how these things were referenced on their pages. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank to you all again. Bonniejanern (talk) 17:58, 28 January 2010 (UTC)Bonniejanern
Thank you very much...
[edit]... for your work on Bill Beach. I am the creator of the Bill Beach article in the German Wikipedia and also a music historian (in my free time), but I wasn't able to get info on Mr. Beach. He was a mystery in the rockabilly scene till you provided the info here. Thank you very much! Now I can improve my German article. Do you have contact to Mr. Beach?
