Your draft article, Draft:Dream Widow

Hello, WaddleDean. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Dream Widow".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:15, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

October 2024

Hello, I'm FlightTime. Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Skid Row (American band) even if you provide a/some source(s), you'll still need to start a discussion on the article talk page to allow editors who regular watch that page a chance to discuss the reliability of the source(s) you provided. One reason is, genre sources can easily be considered an opinion and not fact. Genre's are a touchy subject here on Wikipedia and without discussion/consensus, regardless of your source(s), your addition or removal will most likely be reverted. Your edit has been reverted and archived in the page history for now.

Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive.

Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 19:09, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Florence Road (March 17)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Curb Safe Charmer were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Florence Road and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, I'm S0091. An edit that you recently made seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Text produced by these applications can be unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and output must be carefully checked. Your edit may have been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

On Song Articles

Hello there. I wanted to just address the slew of song articles you recently created:

• The Same Deep Water as You (The Cure song)
• Closedown (The Cure Song)
• Say Goodbye (Fleetwood Mac Song)
• Motion Picture Soundtrack
• Fitter Happier
• Electioneering (Radiohead Song)
• Climbing Up the Walls
• The Tourist (Radiohead Song)
• Electioneering (Radiohead Song)

As far as I can tell, all of these songs are sourced entirely to articles about the album as a whole. This means that these songs lack significant coverage, and thus are not notable enough to warrant standalone pages. Instead, it would be more fit to discuss each of these songs on the album pages as a whole, which could allow for a richer conversation about the song and its surrounding context. In short, please consider adding some reliable sources into each of these articles, which have these songs as their subjects (i.e. talk extensively about them beyond a brief mention in an album review). If you are unable to find those sources, then it is highly unlikely that these songs should have a standalone article. Leafy46 (talk) 19:48, 21 December 2025 (UTC)

Due to a week having passed without any of these concerns being addressed, I have decided to blank-and-redirect the Radiohead songs back to their parent album articles, and have addressed the others. If you disagree with any of these redirects, feel free to revert the edits with explanation and proof of why they have enough significant coverage to warrant a standalone page.
