Welcome to Wikipedia. We welcome and appreciate your contributions, including your edits to Bella Donna (album), but we cannot accept original research. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 05:51, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello! Goingeasy,

Bella Donna
editHello, thank you for edits to Bella Donna. While you provided a reference for the recording of "Julia", there was another edit made about "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" that lacked any sources. As such, I removed this information, although I am not opposed to reinstating it if sufficient sourcing is provided.

- Sorry, but I don't remember what I wrote on the page you said wasn't sourced. Is there a way to see what was removed? Goingeasy (talk) 18:14, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
