Hello, I'm FlightTime. I noticed that you recently removed content from Madonna without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. - FlightTime (open channel) 19:18, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This Is Spinal Tap is no different than any other article. ALL content needs sources, not just quotes. Dates, descriptions, everything. This doesn't mean every sentence has to be referenced, but there should be enough sources to support the prose, regardless of what section it is in. Primary sources are fine for plot summaries, and are common used, but it still needs something. Please read WP:BRD for an understanding of when you shouldn't remove information and tags. Also noteWP:CHALLENGE, which is very clear that you should not remove a tag when any information is being challenged, which it is. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 11:34, 15 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked from editing Wikipedia because your username, KNOWLEDGE GIMP, does not meet our username policy. Your username is the principal reason for the block. You are welcome to continue editing after you have selected a new username that meets the username policy guidelines, which are summarized below.

Per the username policy, a username should represent an individual and should not: represent a group or organization; be promotional; be misleading (such as indicating possession of special user rights or being a "Bot" account (unless approved for such purposes)); be offensive or otherwise disruptive. However, a username that contains the name of a organization and also identifies you individually, such as "Sara Smith at XYZ Company", "Mark at WidgetsUSA", or "FoobarFan87" is allowed, though, among others, the guidance on conflict of interest and the policy of paid-contribution disclosure are relevant.

You are encouraged to choose a new account name that meets our username policy guidelines and create the account yourself. Alternatively, if you wish for your existing contributions to carry over under a new name, then you may request a change in username by:

Adding {{unblock-un|your new username here}} below. You should be able to do this even though you are blocked. If not, you may wish to contact the blocking administrator by clicking on "Email this user" from their talk page.
At an administrator's discretion, you may be unblocked for 24 hours to file a change of name request.
Your requested new username cannot already be in use. Therefore, please check the list here to see if a name is taken prior to requesting a change of name.

Appeals: If, after reading the guide to appealing blocks you believe you were blocked in error, then you may appeal this block by adding {{unblock|Your reason here}} below this notice. – Joe (talk) 10:20, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to a hard block due to the edit summary I had to revdel. No talk, no email. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 18:02, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
