Information icon Welcome to Wikipedia. At least one of your recent edits, such as the edit you made to Vahan Artsruni, did not appear to be constructive and has been 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 the 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. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 11:02, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Arjayay, That's true, I am new in Wikipedia, and i would ask you to tell me what is wrong with my edits. Beacuse the information that I add was taken from the composer himself, and the information is 100% true! While the article that exists in Wikipedia, is not like that. What i did is to improve the article that existed. Please do not revert my edits, and please help me so that no one else could revert it as you did. Thank you. --Heghvan (talk) 11:17, 14 March 2014 (UTC)Heghvan[reply]

You completely misunderstand what Wikipedia wants for sources - they must be verifiable, reliable sources, which must be independant of the subject. What the composer said himself is not acceptable, because it is not verifiable, he is clearly not independent, and has a conflict of interest, making it impossible for the article to have a neutral point of view. You have not provided any sources whatsoever for the information you have added, so it is totally correct that it has been deleted.
Please also read the three revert rule which you are in great danger of violating. I am not the first editor you have reverted today, you reverted User:Bgwhite, one of our most experienced editors, earlier this morning, and have since done it twice to me. Therefore, if you carry out any more reverts on this article within the next 24 hours, you will almost certainly be blocked.
Your additions include large amounts of bold text, contrary to MOS:BOLD, and CAPITALS contrary to MOS:CAPS and lots of WP:redlinks.
You have also added lots of album covers. I see you have loaded these album covers to Wikimedia Commons, claiming they are your own work, whereas the copyright will almost certainly rest with the record publisher. If you were the original artist of all these covers, and you still own the copyright, you would need to follow a long process of verifying this, and releasing the copyright so that anyone can copy and alter them without needing your agreement. Even then, we would not allow all these album covers in an article.
The blue links above will give you a lot of reading, but I suggest you read all of it, especially WP:3RR before editing the article again. - Arjayay (talk) 12:23, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Arjayay, I understand your ponit. Thanks for the information and for the promt answer. I understand that you need the information to be verifiable. and as far as I understad you don not consider my edits to be verfiable, but the original atical was even further from beinf verifiable. There was incorrect things, besides a lot of lack of information, but you still aproved it and did not delete. So please, do not revert my edits, because I tried to correct the errors and made the article richer. As for your remarks, I have taken them into consideration and improved the text. Thanks. --Heghvan (talk) 13:00, 14 March 2014 (UTC)Heghvan[reply]

The fact that the original article was unverified, is no reason whatsoever to add even more information that is unverified (see WP:otherstuffexists) only a reason to delete the entire article.
I see you have removed the bold and redlinks, which is a good start, but you have left the CAPITALS and the pictures - these need to be removed and the references added. As it is a biography of a living person it can be deleted at any time until it has suitable references. Arjayay (talk) 13:29, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, the article can be deleted in the state Heghvan left it. In fact, I was in the process of slapping a delete notice on the page when I saw your changes in the article's history. You also removed links, categories, defaultsort and other vital infrastructure. As Arjayay also mentioned YOU ARE SHOUTING or using capitals. Please take it slow. Look at other articles to see how it is done. If you have specific questions, you can ask them at WP:TEAHOUSE. Bgwhite (talk) 17:45, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I will find the references, remove the capital letters and the edit the article again. --Heghvan (talk) 09:14, 15 March 2014 (UTC)Heghvan[reply]
