Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Anneke van Giersbergen when you modified the page, you introduced unknown parameters. Just because you specify |some_param=some_variable does not always mean that variable will display. The |some_param= must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you.

Welcome, and thank you for contributing the page Anneke van Giersbergen to Wikipedia. While you have added the page to the English version of Wikipedia, the article is not in English; if you would like to contribute to a Wikipedia in another language, please visit the list of Wikipedias and see if a version of Wikipedia exists in your desired language. Otherwise, we invite you to translate it into English. It has been listed at Pages needing translation into English, but if it is not translated within two weeks, the article may be listed for deletion.

For your edits, not creating the article. This template can be confusing lol signed, A Random Hylian (Parry)(swing) 18:23, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Anneke van Giersbergen. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. signed, A Random Hylian (Parry)(swing) 18:24, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Anneke van Giersbergen, you may be blocked from editing. signed, A Random Hylian (Parry)(swing) 18:25, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, A Random Hylian. Thank you for reaching out.

I want to assure you that there is absolutely no intention of vandalism on my part. I am a long-time fan of Anneke van Giersbergen and have been working to significantly improve her article, which was considerably outdated — it stopped at 2021 and was missing several years of her career, including the Buma ROCKS! Export Award (2019), the La Vie, La Mort, L'Amour trilogy (2025–2026), and the Mandylion 30th anniversary world tour (2025–2026).

The issues with the images are unintentional. I have been struggling with the correct wiki syntax for images in the Portuguese Wikipedia, and some of my edits may have inadvertently broken formatting. I am working to fix this.

If you are able to assist or point me to the correct formatting guidelines for images in the English Wikipedia, I would genuinely appreciate it. My goal is to make this article as complete and accurate as possible — not to cause any disruption.

Thank you for your patience. — Michereff (talk) 18:27, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I understand! Wikipedia can be confusing sometimes.

The big issue was not the formatting, it was the Portugese Wikipedia content that broke all the article formatting. I don't know exactly where all the documentation is, but if you want to experiment, you can look for your sandbox or ask the editors out at the Teahouse. They know a lot more about the templates than I do right now.

Also, I have a feeling that you may have polished your response up above with a large language model. Please don't do that again, see WP:LLM for more information. Other than that, let me know on my talk page if you need any other help. signed, A Random Hylian (Parry)(swing) 18:33, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, please don't add non-English content to the English Wikipedia. If you'd like to contribute in Portuguese, consider adding the content to the Portuguese Wikipedia instead. Cheers, ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 18:47, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation and for being kind about it. I'll look into the Teahouse. My goal was just to update the article with recent information about her career. I'll be more careful next time! Thanks one more time. Michereff (talk) 19:00, 25 June 2026 (UTC)[reply]
