Hello, Musiccomposer77. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Once Upon a Castle: Symphonie Concertante".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. » Shadowowl | talk 08:23, 27 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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 Dreamachine (Daugherty) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.gramophone.co.uk/review/daugherty-dreamachine-trail-of-tears. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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.

[edit]

You have an obvious conflict of interest and you must declare it. As someone who has a financial interest in this article, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. See guidance for editors with conflicts of interest and writing about yourself.

Also read the following regarding writing an article

  • you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to you or an affiliated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the you claims or interviewing you. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls
  • You appear to be notable enough for an article, but the current Michael Daugherty article is littered with sources linked to you and other non-RS sites such as reviews and interviews.
  • you must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. I don't think that the current article, hagiographic as it is, is bad enough for speedy deletion, so I've cleaned up the link farms instead {not necessarily your edits)
  • there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.
  • you must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. I deleted Dreamachine (Daugherty) as a copyright violation and self-serving spam. Please don't try to promote yourself again. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:59, 26 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Matt Browne (composer) moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Matt Browne (composer), does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Information icon Hello, I'm SpookiePuppy. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of music students by teacher: C to F, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Unfortunately, I had to revert 3 of your edits. The first of the group of three edits contained a large number of red-link names (at least 38), all of which were added without a reference. There are already far too many red-link names in the lists. Please feel free to re-add the main teacher entry with any blue-link student names. If you do wish to add red-links names, each one must have a proper citation. SpookiePuppy (talk) 09:12, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, SpookiePuppy. We are attempting to add the List of Students via the Official Michael Daugherty website. (https://michaeldaugherty.net/long-biography/) If this is the citation source for the entire list of students, what is the preferred method to implement an "Ibid"-style citation? Musiccomposer77 (talk) 21:08, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello User:Musiccomposer77, thank you for your reply. A composer website would not be a viable source. You need to take a different approach. I am happy to put Michael Daugherty in the list as a teacher and can start it off one student which I will reference. The other aspect is that his teachers need to be checked and ensure that he is listed as a student, which may require some referencing. I'm happy to have a look at that as well. With regard to the "ibid." style I think that's a good idea and will be needed in this case as there are a lot of students. I had a quick look in Pfitzinger's "Composer Genealogies: A Compendium of Composers, Their Teachers, and Their Students" (2017) (I have the physical book) and there is long list of students and also quite a few teachers listed. The page numbers involved were 121-122. Also, I've sorted out which students are geniune blue-link names, after proper disambiguation and checking each page. You can see the much-reduced list here: (https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:SpookiePuppy/sandbox/Test_List). SpookiePuppy (talk) 00:21, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I have made a list of the re-link students on a separate page in my sandbox: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/User:SpookiePuppy/sandbox/List_with_red_links#Michael_Daugherty I have also checked all 6 teachers and made sure that Michael Daugherty is listed as a student on each. He was missing from the Pierre Boulez list of students, so I added him with a reference. SpookiePuppy (talk) 01:22, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
