[edit]
Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Wmwillis3, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Draft:William Martin Willis, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your revised article before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details. If the page you created has already been deleted from Wikipedia, but you want to save the content from it to use for that draft, don't hesitate to ask anyone from this list and they will copy it to your user page.
One rule we do have in connection with conflicts of interest is that accounts used by more than one person will unfortunately be blocked from editing. Wikipedia generally does not allow editors to have usernames which imply that the account belongs to a company or corporation. If you have a username like this, you should request a change of username or create a new account. (A name that identifies the user as an individual within a given organization may be OK.)
In addition, if you receive, or expect to receive, compensation for any contribution you make, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation to comply with our terms of use and our policy on paid editing.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

A page you started (William Martin Willis) has been reviewed!
[edit]Thanks for creating William Martin Willis.
I have just reviewed the page, as a part of our page curation process and note that:
Thank you for your new article on William Martin Willis. As you have probably seen at the top of the article, it needs to be cleaned up. One problem I noticed was the catalog numbers like ""“Billy Boy” (Box 102)", which can be tough on a reader's eyes. Consider the interests of the general reader who would like to learn more about the man and his music, and avoid personal viewpoints on trivia that may not be universally relevant.
To reply, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Doomsdayer520}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ .

@Doomsdayer520: . Firstly, thanks. I understand your note on "easy on the eyes", in regards to the use of Music Label, and it's release #- like "Billy Boy" (Union 706)- but- it is important- and the history tied to any public release is cataloged as such. Archives (especially as we get further and further from the original release dates), and the absence of technology for the speed and ease for retrieval, it is necessary, if not a requirement. A'liken it to ISBN and/or LoC catalog system, or SSNs, even. Also, considering legal considerations, and union (Musician), it's a 'normal' accompaniment (pun intended). I could, and will begin, to build a chart listing (Table), to show the Discography. (not all 300+, LOL). Then, when that's built, I can drop the "in-sentence" referral. I do agree, it will smooth it out for a cleaner read, and won't make it read 'choppy' with the constant interruption of the Music-business, and Music Media-Periodical use of Label and Issue for a song. -again thanks, the plan is to roll-up or-to a discography. I need and am asked questions also about "where's so and so", "where's that record cut in ___?" . Sun records and Mercury have asked, also. Wmwillis3 (talk) 23:40, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
