Removal of final paragraph

How is this section not relevant to this article?--SabreBD (talk) 13:45, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This is content taken verbatim from the Techno article.Please see here to clarify what the concerns are. Needs to be rewritten, and ideally showing relevance to the article topic. Semitransgenic talk. 14:11, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I do not see the problem. There is no fork if the text is relevant to both articles, if that is what you are pointing to.--SabreBD (talk) 15:05, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
CC BY-SA applies here, it's a terms of use issue, I created that content for the techno article. Second issue is I disagree with the premise of this article and would rather not have this material reused in this fashion (and so avoid contributing to the synthesis that is taking place here). Semitransgenic talk. 15:22, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, could you give me a direct link please.--SabreBD (talk) 16:03, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Direct link to what exactly? the guideline link is above. Semitransgenic talk. 16:36, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I need a paragraph or a quote please, as I do not see which bit of that page covers your view.--SabreBD (talk) 17:04, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
under WP:NOATT "Content rewritten in one's own words does not need attribution. However, duplicating material by other contributors that is sufficiently creative to be copyrightable under US law (as the governing law for Wikipedia), requires attribution." Whichever is easier. Semitransgenic talk. 17:09, 18 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
OK thanks. It may take me a little time to look at this properly.--SabreBD (talk) 06:47, 19 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2010s content

@91.34.30.13: Please read WP:ORIGINALRESEARCH (emphasis added): "[Original research] includes any analysis or synthesis of published material that serves to reach or imply a conclusion not stated by the sources. To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented.

Here is an example of the material you added: "Dance Music acts have incorporated elements of Rock and Metal ... A key release to give popularity to the sound is Korn's 2011 release The Path of Totality." The cited source states that the album "combines nu-metal elements with the electronic dance genre dubstep". It does not state that the album was popular, influential, innovative, or otherwise significant in any capacity.

In order to add content that says, for instance, "dance acts in the 2010s draw on the influence of rock and metal," you have to cite a source that explicitly makes that observation. ---Ilovetopaint (talk) 12:05, 14 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
