[edit] Hello, I'm John. I noticed that you made a change to an article, 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! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. --John (talk) 00:11, 28 October 2017 (UTC)
The Beatles 1956-1969, 1994.
[edit]1956: John Lennon's first band, The Quarrymen was founded in 1956. Later Paul joined, then George, then Pete Best but was replaced by Ringo. Technically, it was the same band, founded in 1969. Then they changed their name a few times. Johnny and the Moondogs, The Beat Brothers (with Tony Sheridan), The Silver Beatles and then The Beatles. But it was the same group. Well, it was more members in The Quarrymen, (Colin Hanton, John Duff Lowe, Rod Davis, Len Garry, etc.) but they later left the band. So I would say The Beatles technically is the same band as The Quarrymen, The Moon Dogs and Silver Beatles.
1969: The Beatles recorded both of their last CDs in 1969, but Let It Be was just released in 1970, but they had already broken up. The Beatles broke up in 1969, right?
1994: Paul, George and Ringo teamed up one last time for the Anthology series in 1994 and remixed "Free As A Bird" and "Real Love".
That's why I changed the page to 1956-1969, 1994. But it was wrong?

The article Kjell Veine has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. power~enwiki (π, ν) 06:01, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

Non-notable label. Sources here and in a WP:BEFORE search are either not independent of the company or unreliable.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}

Speedy deletion nomination of Dina Jewel
[edit]![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/1d/Information_icon4.svg/48px-Information_icon4.svg.png)
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 Dina Jewel, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that has essentially the same content as an article on another Wikimedia Foundation project. Please see Wikipedia:Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English.
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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. <RetroCraft314 />

Famousbirthdays.com as a source
[edit]Hi NRKfan. I noticed that you recently used famousbirthdays.com as a source for biographical information in Ava Max. Please note that there is general consensus that famousbirthdays.com does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. (See Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_153#Is_famousbirthdays.com_a_reliable_source_for_personal_information). If you disagree, let's discuss it. Thanks. --Ronz (talk) 03:04, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
