Hi Ron. I just wanted to explain why your addition of the recording of " I Want To Hold Your Hand" (which is currently a red link btw, you want the double quotes outside of the brackets) to October 17 keeps getting reverted. Song recordings are generally considered non-notable. For one thing they are very common; The Beatles recorded hundreds of songs, and once you open the door to The Beatles why not all the other bands out there? Also who is to say if the recording is more important than the first release, or even the first live performance? If the notability guidelines (which are here) were expanded to the point where the recording of "I Want To Hold Your Hand" is considered notable these pages would be swamped with song recordings and fights over which band is more notable than the other. Also be careful using the vandalism word in edit summaries. Neither of the editors that reverted your addition (I was one of them) have any intention of vandalizing these pages, and were acting in good faith. In these situations the best thing to do is take it to the article's talk page and ask why you are being reverted. Hope this makes sense. Cheers. Winston365 ( talk) 04:02, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to She Caught the Katy may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
