STOP SAYING 'INFORMATIONS' OR 'AN ADVICE' 
As a grammatical rule, English mass nouns such as information, advice, character, behaviour, trouble, furniture, gold, equipment, land, jewelry, damage, etc do not take the indefinite article 'a' or 'an' for singularity or 's' for plurality. You can only quantify them by the use of partitive expressions.
