Hi!

I assume you're a fan of SECRET? Well nice to meet you. Regarding on you're edits I'm glad that you take time to improve SECRET related articles but you're recent edits especially on SECRET's lead section doesn't meet the Wikipedia's criteria for a lead section. If you would like to improve SECRET related articles please refer to this Wikipedia guideline for the Manual of Style of Lead Section. Thanks!

Hello! Yes I am a fan of SECRET and I would like to improve their page. I am so sorry that I did not follow the manual for the lead section. I am a beginner at Wikipedia. Thank you! Toothswing (talk) 11:30, 10 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

I would really like to see your sources(websites) where you gathered the sales number for their albums. I hope you can provide. Thanks.

The source is from the Gaon Chart : http://www.gaonchart.co.kr/main/section/album/list.gaon. Can you pleaase specify who you are? Thank you. Toothswing (talk) 12:48, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Allkpop

Hi. Sorry for the late reply; I was on vacation and not really on a computer. :P

Allkpop is not a reliable source under Wikipedia criteria. First and foremost, it is a blog. It may be a K-pop news blog, but it's still a blog nonetheless (as opposed to, say, a news organization). This was a bigger issue back in the day when the bloggers would insert their own opinions and stuff about the artists, which would make it non-neutral. But even now, it's just staff translating Korean news articles and it's all second-hand information. Second (and this is related to my previous point), there has been some controversy over the accuracy of the translations, especially by Korean news/media sites. This would call Allkpop's reliability into question.

Like, I understand that it's difficult to get English news references for Korean pop things, but you could always just do a Google news search or just use the Korean news article links that Allkpop puts in their articles.

I hope that makes sense but let me know if you need anything else. Thanks! SKS (talk) 22:37, 11 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Secret expansion

Obviously Im a secrettime. :) Ive recently been interested in expanding Secret articles since they've gotten really popular lately, and too reach out new fans especially international ones, their Wikipedia page should be complete right now. So I'm kinda asking for your help to give some reliable sources. I'm wishing to start to creating on each members profile. My bias is Ji Eun so she's kinda first. lol. :D

I'm hoping for a collaborative effort in improving Secret articles. :D --Mazic (talk) 15:48, 24 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

We can start on Jieun first as she has the most activities. (solo songs, Immortal Song 2, G20) I will try to find the sources. You can also find the sources through this three main points. Great to see a Secrettime here. :D Toothswing (talk) 04:24, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I have found some sources.

Toothswing (talk) 03:46, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Sorry I wasn't able to get back at you on expanding Secret's article, because I had been busy with school and other things. On my free time I'm trying to search on reliable sources, and we can try to use the original sources for any Secret articles in AllKpop.[AKP already tried to translate them :)] And I found english sources on Enews, MTVK and Mnet. Currently I am writing Starlight Moonlight. I have used the format of GA or Good Articles and Featured Articles of famous groups, usually American. I'm still lacking on sources. If you have any useful sources PM me in my talk page.

PS: Thanks for creating Jieun's page! It was really nice but it needs pictures. Anyways thanks for putting a great effort in expanding and creating Secret related articles. Mazic (talk) 14:35, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. Thanks for creating "Starlight Moonlight"! I'm currently creating B.A.P. and TS Entertainment articles. Its just a draft and the links to the draft can be found at my user page. Thank you once again! Toothswing (talk) 03:04, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I created already the TS Entertainment page(huge thanks to you also for the summary in your user page), although it still lacks MANY sources (cause its so difficult to find TS related info). And I also created the TS Entertainment Template and created their songs Magic, Love is Move and I Want You Back. My goal now is to create the pages of the other 3 members and Going Crazy. Anyways I'd like to create the B.A.P. article but Hyosung, Zinger and Sunhwa comes first, lol.

PS: I already joined Secretfour. Tooths. hehe. Mazic (talk) 14:17, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

B.A.P

Hey tooths, The wiki project for Secret isn't creating any progress at all since relatively few people are only interested to join. I'd like to improve it more, but right now I plan to put it on hiatus, Cause I'm really interested in B.A.P since its their debut. (and they need editors in wiki) I want to create their articles "Warrior", "Going Crazy", "Never Give Up" and "Bang&Zelo". Again, I need help on the sources. Feel free to change my edits to better improve the articles stated above. But I remind you to be very careful on your edits and state your reason behind it. Otherwise people might revert it. Mazic (talk) 09:37, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there. I'm also quite interested in B.A.P now. Let's work on it! Toothswing (talk) 07:21, 27 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, Since BYG & Zelo has like the most sources to create an article why not start on them first? I saw in your talk page you plan to create BYG's page first, so I'll create Zelo's page(And I'm almost done). Hyosung, Sunhwa and Zinger's are still on draft because I need more sources(more imp.English) from them. Mazic (talk) 17:00, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Secret

Hey there, just finished Hyosung, Sunhwa and Zinger's page. Recently I just finisded List of awards and nominations received by Secret page. Just check it out and add/edit some stuffs if it's needed. Currently I'm working on this: http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=User:Mazic/Secret_Revamp but it's just a draft. And I need your help. Feel free to add things, cause it ain't easy doing this one. Thanks. Mazic (talk) 09:08, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

April 2012

Your recent editing history at T-ara shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 15:59, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to T-ara. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 15:59, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

User:Rapperryan87

Your edits to certain Korean pop-group articles are very similar to the ones byRapperryan87 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log). Like you he kept adding positions of Korean musicians without using reliable sources. This user and all his sockpuppets are blocked. Please see: Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ryanjay1996 and Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ryanjay1996. I know that most probably you are not a sockpuppet. So please do not do edits like the ones the blocked sockpuppets attempted. Please stop adding positions of group members without using reliable sources and without discussing them first on the talkpage of the articles. Let's make Wikipedia a reliable encyclopaedia. Thank you. Δρ.Κ. ^{λόγοςπράξις} 17:17, 30 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox Korean Film

Based off your editing of Running Man episodes I thought you might be interested in a debate at Template Talk on the topic of merging Infobox Korean Film into the generic Infobox Film category, deleting the Hangul/hanja/RR/MR information, or keeping it separate (as it currently is). I would appreciate it if you to contribute your thoughts or at least glance over it. The more people looking/thinking about it will give us better ideas as to what should be decided. Thank you. ₪RicknAsia₪ 09:28, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2012 Mnet Asian Music Awards, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Like This (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Adele Live 2016

Can't you see that there is an IN USE tag on the article and I am editing it?? Cut it out! — Calvin999 13:26, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

December 2015

Greetings. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Adele Live 2016, did not appear to be constructive and has been or will be reverted or removed. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make some test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Can't you see that there is an IN USE tag on the article and I am editing it?? Cut it out! — Calvin999 13:28, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I'm sorry if I made any mistakes because I'm still not entirely familiar with the guidelines. I apologize. I was just shocked that my edits were reverted even though I had all the dates listed. Toothswing (talk) 13:50, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There weren't any mistakes, but you was ignoring the In Use tag at the top, which says do not edit while it is tagged to avoid edit conflicts. Whenever you see that tag in future, don't edit the page until it has been removed. — Calvin999 22:49, 14 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 04:47, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
