Bruce Foxton

Hi there, I've removed the changes you made at Bruce Foxton for now, because per the Jam's page here, they do seem to be considered "mod revival." If that's not so, and you can provide a source to back it up, please do feel free to resubmit those changes.

Your edits also created a huge formatting mess - please get in the habit of using Preview. I'll attach some info about that below. If I can help with anything, just let me know. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 18:26, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, upon noticing your subsequent edits, I would really caution you to find a source for the changes you're making. I believe you're trying to make improvements, but your edits may look like vandalism to other editors. If Paul Weller is quoted as saying what you cited in your edit summary, please just include a source for the quote. Thanks, Jessicapierce (talk) 18:28, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Bruce Foxton, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it.

The *Show preview* button is right next to the *Publish changes* button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. Jessicapierce (talk) 18:26, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Jessica

Thank you for the input. I shall be sure to take on board all that you have said. I appreciate how important accuracy of editing is and I didn't mean to cause a problem.

I've been looking for a source all day, but nothing turned up. All I know is that I remember that Paul Weller said this, circa 1979.

I didn't set out to cause vandalism, as I really enjoy Wikipedia and I've been a fan of The Jam since 1977.

Cheers
