Hello,

Sorry I am still new to the site and am struggling a bit with the interface.

To answer your question, I will try to add sources where possible. To answer specifically, I didn't think it was necessary to add a source for changing the incorrect song title "What Might've Been" because all you have to do is look up the record to see it's wrong. https://open.spotify.com/album/4VlJ9qrXIoKFQ2Ai0nhKL7

Do you need me to add this Spotify link to every page that I fixed the title?

As for other changes, some are hard to "cite". For example, I have fixed some song titles which are just fan guesses. Noticeably, no one asked for evidence or links when they were submitted with incorrect information. The only link I could share to show the correction here is again a link to an official streaming source which has the correct song name.

As for the corrections marked "Updated per bootleg", there is an offline bootleg collection which has actual recordings of the songs I've added. This is online in approximately a million places right now. There is an effort underway to centralize it and make it available. I won't really have an easy to way to cite these corrections until we are able to publish the bootlegs.

That all being said, I will try my best to add more sources when I can. If not, I can add more explanation for the changes.

What seems obvious to you is not obvious to everyone. Setlist.fm is a community, so it's necessary to use a link to show the songtitle is written in a certain way, keeping in mind that https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/Style/Language/English is primary.

Give us a sign as soon as those 'fan made up titles' are officialised, we can change these much easier.

After my citing your sources you continue just to write what you're doing. You may have noticed I use sources that can be verified.

Here you simply make a statement about your edit, but give no link
So may I ask you again in a gentle way to tell us on what base you did those edits?

bq.

Hello - I noticed you have been changing the Regina Spektor setlists which have the song "Après Moi" to "Après moi", citing conventions around foreign language capitalization practices.

Are you able to revert these changes? Regina's own CDs, streaming, and official materials refer to the song as "Après Moi", not "Après moi".

For statistics reasons we use musicbrainz, where the French way of writing the title is primarily.
You do not answer if you will be using real sources in future.

Edited for consistency, Fixed song title, Updated per bootleg, Added per Regina's MySpace, Live at Bull Moose EP, Added concert note, Fixed formatting for consistency... are not really sources which can be verified easily.
I noticed you mentioned just what you did on setlists to bypass the mandatory edit comment feature.
