Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. GripTheHusk (talk) 14:43, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add commentary or your own personal analysis to Wikipedia articles. Doing so violates Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy and breaches the formal tone expected in an encyclopedia. Thank you. GripTheHusk (talk) 14:58, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not vandalize pages, as you did with this edit to Save Me (Queen song). If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing. Queenie 15:14, 14 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits. The next time you violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by inserting commentary or your personal analysis into an article, as you did to Another One Bites the Dust, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Queen Articles

Hi. Just to explain to you why I am reverting many of your edits today to the Queen song articles. Too much of what you are added is essentially your own personal opinion of the song, unsupported by any cites and not neutrally expressed. For instance, in Now I'm Here you added; "is considered one of the greatest Brian May songs in Queen's catalogue." This is your opinion of the song. "Considered" is also what we call a weasel word.

You also added to the same article; "The song is summary of feelings that writer had at the time reflecting on band's career and constant touring, at the period when they were gaining mainstream success and first headlining North American tour." Where has this analysis come from? If it is your own then it is original research and not permitted on Wikipedia. If it is not yours, then you need to cite it.

You have also frequently used a link to Queen's which, as you can see, goes to Queen's University in Canda; nothing to do with Queen the rock band.

You should also note that some of the links you are adding to the genres field in the info box are not genres. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 18:29, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I cannot add the sources you are using because I don't know where you are using them, and whether the sources verify what you are adding. Only you can do that. You can read all about how to cite sources here. I know it makes for more work, but only by citing properly will prove you are not adding your own personal opinions and research. You also need to keep in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, and they need to be neutral. So even if one of your cites says the song is great, and most famous, that has to be expressed neutrally and weighed up against the reputation of the source.

Please don't let this put you off. Once you get the hang of the rules I'm sure you can add lots of useful stuff to the Queen articles. --Escape Orbit ^(Talk) 21:50, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
