Hpomeroy89 (talk) 04:04, 4 February 2023 (UTC) Some observationsHello. You seem to do some editing like me... just random things on wiki but please look out for "bare" citations. You can see these in the References section just as a plain links. I think I came across some done by you.. and there is an easy way to do citations. It's in the Help:Edit_toolbar. Click "Cite", and if it's a website then click, "Cite web". Paste the link in the URL spot and then click the magnifying glass. it will fill the details for you. Also, if you come across pages with this, there's a tool I use: Reflinks where you just copy and paste the wiki article link in it and click Go. It will do it all for you.. but of course if you are citing an article, the above method is preferred. Brush on and/or bookmark the MOS:ALBUM album style guide to get a better feel for what order the subheaders should go in.. I am finding a lot of articles that are in weird orders [not your doing, I'm just saying be on the look out so you can fix a bunch of things at once] This message is not meant to be taken accusatory or rudely by any means. I am just trying to be helpful and for all I know, you could already know how to do all this. if so, then disregard Thanks and please use the ping function so I get a notification of your reply. --Jennica✿ talk / contribs 14:06, 22 November 2016 (UTC) ThanksI really like how you fixed up the musical style section on Panic! at the Disco. I've been wanting to get rid of all those ridiculous genres listed for each album, but never knew how to replace/tweak it because it looked like such a major part in that section. Thanks. Sekyaw (talk) 04:58, 15 March 2017 (UTC) Thank you. I know those genres were driving me nuts. They were different than the infobox and I fixed the genres so the article supported the infobox.

ParamoreHey you know on Paramore wouldnt the explation of Hayley being the only constant member (since formation) need "- since it's interception" as otherwise she hasn't been the only constant member; Taylor York joined in 2007 but never left the band. So would he be a constant member too? WikiEditsAnnon2 (talk) 07:22, 16 January 2018 (UTC) Genre edit on BenningtonPlease do not add content to an article that is unsourced. Genres, like anything require sources. I'm sure you are familiar with WP:OR and WP:RS. To top it off, per WP:SUBJECTIVE, "Wikipedia articles about art and other creative topics (e.g., musicians, actors, books, etc.) have a tendency to become effusive. This is out of place in an encyclopedia. Aesthetic opinions are diverse and subjective—we might not all agree about who the world's greatest soprano is. However, it is appropriate to note how an artist or a work has been received by prominent experts and the general public. For instance, the article on Shakespeare should note that he is widely considered to be one of the greatest authors in the English language. Articles should provide an overview of the common interpretations of a creative work, preferably with citations to experts holding that interpretation. Verifiable public and scholarly critiques provide useful context for works of art.". In other words, things like genre, which are artistic interpretations on work, require a source. Those genres are not sourced in the prose, so they were removed. Any further thoughts on this are welcome, but maybe let's stick them to the page on the singer.

Twenty One PilotsI don't know how to add album covers. :( Every time I upload to Wikimedia Commons, they're removed.

Billy HerringtonAre you certain about the source that cites his death? FunksBrother (talk) 19:59, 3 March 2018 (UTC)
Van Morrison, U2 and Jon Gibson via lists articles...Hello, I have a question. In the spirit of being fair and following all Wikipedia policies, as with Twenty One Pilots, do you believe it's appropriate to keep Van Morrison (with a Rolling Stone source that doesn't confirm he is doing Christian rock because he doesn't nor does he even consider himself a Christian which is moot) and U2 on the List of Christian rock bands? These are secular musicians. My argument is as with adding Jon Gibson on the List of Christian hip hop artists to prove a point (someone who did rap in the past so the years he was active in hip hop could be added behind his name as is done on other list articles), I was told adding "citation required" after his name is not allowed and he had to be removed from the list yet that was accepted on the 'list of Christian rock bands' (there wasn't a consensus to keep Gibson yet there is a consensus to remove U2 on the 'list of Christian rock bands' but U2 and VM's name remains on the list with weak sources). This makes no sense and seems to be deliberate. Being prejudice that i'm using an IP instead of an account is why their judgment is clouded in my opinion. Others aren't warned for edit warring so I thought i'd bring some new eyes/minds into the matter to avoid conflict. Would you be so kind as to read the talk pages for 'list of Christian rock bands' and 'list of Christian hip hop artists' please? For that matter, Dolly Parton isn't a Christian country singer (even if she's Christian or sang gospel-related songs in the past) yet was added on the list for that as well. I just want to point out their discrepancies/hypocrisy without me getting involved again since the back-and-forth with only one editor is useless. I give up on defending myself and I don't want to add to the pre-existing disruptions/violations/vandalism of others. There are so many issues with those articles that i'm just wanting/trying to fix. Thank you for your time/input/assistance! 2600:1702:1690:E10:3518:CD9E:7602:BC52 (talk) 09:17, 17 April 2018 (UTC) May 2018
DGD disputeI'm not gonna fight anymore. You seem to have a really rough grasp on post-hardcore based on the bands you said were post-hardcore on the DGD talk page. I've been listening to this genre for literally almost as long as you've been alive (fifteen years), but whatever. I'm done. We'll agree to disagree. Have a good night.

Nazaria 73 (talk) 09:10, 18 July 2018 (UTC) Bowling is life, do you have a Twinkle to use revert vandalism? FedericoPaoloBassani 13:23, 4 August 2018 (UTC) August 2018 Your recent editing history at Angelic 2 the Core shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 05:06, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
About GhostAbout Ghost, where's the source stating that they are pop rock? There's like no citation next to it and that makes it look more like someone put in some false info. I'm just wondering because it just seems a little sketchy to me.
Weezer Associated ActsYou reverted my edit to the Weezer page wherein I added Weird Al Yankovic to the associated acts. Weird Al does work and play with them, he toured with the group and recently was a part of the music video for their cover of Africa by Toto. Surely this would qualify him as an associated act? IronBridge (talk) 20:50, 25 September 2018 (UTC) Breaking Benjamin's "Defeated", "Ashes of Eden" and "Red Cold River"Hey, could you find reliable sources on the genres of those songs please.

Incorrectly Capitalizing GenresOk. I received your message regarding my edits. Where exactly are the guidelines for capitalization, and where does it say that the edits I made were examples of incorrect capitalization? For example, if one of the genres listed is "rock" with a lowercase r, but the wiki page is "Rock" with a capital R, then why should the genre be listed as "rock"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgriffy98 (talk • contribs) 04:01, 5 November 2018 (UTC) Maroon 5You also mentioned "unsourced genres", but none of the other genres have citations of any kind. So why did you revert my edits, but not the other sourceless genres? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgriffy98 (talk • contribs) 04:12, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Jaiden AnimationsHello, Bowling is life, Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Onel5969 and it's nice to meet you :-) I wanted to let you know that I have tagged an article that you started, Jaiden Animations for deletion, because it seems to be an article that has been already decided by a consensus decision to be unsuitable for inclusion. If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator. For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer. Onel5969 TT me 01:26, 11 June 2019 (UTC) Nomination of Jaiden Animations for deletion A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jaiden Animations is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted. The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jaiden Animations (3rd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Onel5969 TT me 15:09, 11 June 2019 (UTC) Discussion notificationHi.

Thanks. Flatlist formattingHi. I don't know if you've learned since January that we don't need to add Template:Flatlist to album or song infoboxes now as they support flatlist formatting automatically, but they do. Even at the time you made this edit to Amo in January, the infobox supported listing items on separate lines without needing flatlist formatting. Thanks.

Under the template for musicial artists, in the section for associated acts it says "This field is for professional relationships with other musicians or bands that are significant and notable to this artist's career" and she has been for him. Sawhitney36 (talk) 23:35, 11 July 2019 (UTC) Also another point: If one-time collaborations don't count as associated acts, all the artists under Halsey's associated acts should be taken off of as they've only collabed once.

I am the anonymous guy that has been adding some sort of information that I think the wiki page for the aforementioned album Blink-182 deserves to hold. I admit I'm wrong with the subject matter that implies me in putting some music genres without any kind of source, I have the link but never knew how to put them in it. I am new to this community and I couldn't find a way on how to put the source where it's being said that the album summarizes in punk rock and post-punk, which are the genres I've been putting lately in the page. I'd like to apologize if there was any confusion or to beliefs about me trying to vandalize the page. This is the page I wanted to cite as the source. Hope you understand, sorry for the inconveniences. @179.52.175.117: No problem. You can either add the source to the infobox or in the composition section of the article. It looks like you have the source correctly formatted. All you have to do is add it. You can just copy and paste is. No need to apologize as your edits seem to be in good faith and you are new.

Ed SheeranYou reverted my edit to Ed Sheeran's categories without providing any rationale. Sheeran is a singer-songwriter, and does not make the style of music described in the folk music article. I am aware that in the USA the term is often used for any kind of acoustic music, however the two categories relate specifically to England. Sheeran is an English singer but he is not an English folk singer. Please revert your undo. Monxton (talk) 00:02, 23 September 2020 (UTC)

On Zayn Malik you ordered me to stop removing genres because *they are sourced in the article* also defining my edits as disruptive. You added the alternative R&B genre that i removed because it is sourced in the article right? I only found the two sources that supported it, that are [1][2] and they strictly and exclusively talk about his first solo single. Do you really think that sources for the first solo single from a major artist in his whole carreer to still define his overall artistry 3 albums and 5 years later? On Bruno Mars you were right on the acts thing, I apologize, I wasn't informed enough about it and after a double check i got it, but the genres revert is a little bit off the road to me. Sources from 2010, about his first album and first album only do not define his overall genres, he has done multiple projects and developed his artistry a whole lot since then. That is also sourced right after the reggae and rock statement.

Eternal BlueYou reverted my recent addition of the "alternative cover" at Eternal Blue (album). I was just trying to help because of someone else's concern at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Albums (November 15 thread). Either way, you included two reasons for the reversion and neither makes sense. Broke the infobox? This version: [2] looks completely functional to me. The image is also not a violation of Non-Free Content Criteria because it is a retail item and qualifies as Fair Use (WP:NFCI). Meanwhile, multiple covers are common and the system is set up for it, as seen in the "Advanced Usage" section at Template:Infobox album.

I noticed you reverted an inclusion I made on The Silver Scream 2, in which you removed horrorcore. I added a source where I was specifically looking for hard rock, and in the article [6] I stumbled across horrorcore as a specific genre included in the summary from this reliable source. I decided to add this as well as hard rock and post-hardcore. I've seen the Wikipedia article for it before, you said it wasn't accurate even though the source specifically states it. In the context of the album, a subgenre of hip hop doesn't make sense especially when they talk about the genre of horrorcore being in the context of horror-themed hardcore music. It would sure at least warrant a mention in the article, it only so happens that the horrorcore article says something completely different. Other sites such as here [7][8] have also referred to Ice Nine Kills as horrorcore, so the mention in the article makes sense. Though because genres should have hyperlinks, what would be done about this inclusion even though the statement of the horrorcore article says differently? These say them in the context of the genre, I suppose it could be up to interpretation as we aren't music journalists, though what do you overall think of this? Many thanks.

MxPxPlease explain why you undid all my changes in MxPx, I am working to fix inaccuracies in representation on this page as directed by the band and their immediate team. There are multiple errors included in this Wikipedia page that demand attention, and my edits are not malicious or trying to misrepresent in any way. I have even provided sources and new citations to keep this page current and updated with their most recent accomplishments. I do understand the genre specification and will leave that in, but the rest of my edits should not have been removed where we added in the bands accomplishments up until the present. Wtfsteph (talk) 21:21, 8 February 2022 (UTC) I just fixed the edits back and did an undo on the GENRE specific portion of my edits. I hope this suffices as there is no longer a change on Genre.

How is this handled for other public figures that change their religion or gender over time? How does that get adjusted and fixed? What sources do I need to provide? Thank you.

@Walter Görlitz: Thank you for your kind and thoughtful discussion. The original comment to me was pretty aggressive, and yes this is my first time editing and trying this on my own so I really appreciate the help. I will take your feedback to heart and try to correct everything. I do want to add the most current updates up until the present, I referenced many songs and events that the band participated in with current and relevant articles. The 12 year old article was referencing the band going independent, which still remains their current situation to this day, but I will correct that with a more current representation. This has been my job over the last year, trying to correct, source, and update the inaccuracies on this page. So I don't take it lightly and really appreciate the help.

Hi there. Just wanted to let you know that I undid your revision that incorrectly uses bold markup for headings at Impera. Per MOS:GOODHEAD, bold markup should only be used as a last resort, and only because you've run out of subheadings. Since that isn't the case here, I have fixed it again. Just because other album articles also incorrectly use bold markup doesn't mean it should be repeated here.

They have been classified as alternative metal by numerous music publications and outlets. Their Apple Music bio also lists them as a metal act. I made the necessary updates to correct this, and you reverted my edit. Could you provide clarity on this? 2601:2C4:C481:66B0:58B4:2827:C6F7:D004 (talk) 17:52, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
That’s the thing, alternative metal is a broad term. Specific would be calling them an “Industrial Metal band”. Regardless of that, your perception of whether or not the lead genre was broad enough or not irrelevant when the band refers to themselves as an alt-metal band. You may not understand the difference but there is indeed a difference. The artists/band understand these differences is why they make it a point to say what they are and we as consumers have to respect that. By changing their genre you have inadvertently changed their Google Knowledge Panel. Now when someone googles them, they come up as a rock band which is inaccurate and misleading. Sylense night (talk) 23:07, 21 February 2022 (UTC) In This Moment revisionYes, the lead genre should be broad, but this is where you are wrong. Alternative metal is a broad, all encompassing term for different sub-genres of metal music (nu metal, gothic metal, industrial metal, electronic metal). The genre box on the wiki article lists all metal sub-genres. The opening statement of very first article link that is listed in the “Musical Style and influences” section classifies them as an “alt-metal act” as well as many other publications. Following your logic, you would have to go through and change the lead genre from metal to rock for every single metal band with a wiki page. Every metal or alt-metal such as bands like Slipknot, Metallica, Korn etc has done much softer music, but that does not make them a “rock” band. Take a band like Slipknot for example. They have many songs that can be classified as hard rock, soft rock, and gothic rock but classifying them as a “rock band” would be incorrect because that isn’t indicative of their overall feel and sound. They are undeniably a metal act. The same goes for In This Moment. They themselves have stated in many RECENT interviews that they are indeed a metal band. If we are going to make sure that the information provided on these wiki pages are as accurate as possible then we need to understand the intricacies of these genres and artists. We have to be consistent with the bands as well as the media publications and outlets. 2601:2C4:C481:66B0:58B4:2827:C6F7:D004 (talk) 18:44, 21 February 2022 (UTC) Your editing is becoming disruptiveYou do not need to unnecessarily change an artist’s genre. The only time the genre in the info box should change, is if the artists acknowledges a shift in their primary genre. An artist’s overall body of work indicates their primary genre, not a few styles that they may experimented with throughout the years. For example, Lady Gaga has done songs that has a country influence, but that doesn’t make her a country music artists…she’s without a doubt pop artist. Genre’s and sub-genres exist for a reason and you seem to be having trouble grasping the concept.

Whitman or Boston re: PoppyI'm curious why you removed the ExploreTalent source for Poppy's birthplace being Whitman? What makes that "not a good source"? I know some other sources list her birthplace as "Boston" but its worth noting that that may simply be because Whitman is a suburb of Boston, in the same way that a lot of articles will say Matt Damon is from Boston even though he's actually from Cambridge (plus only one of the sources actually mentions the city of Boston specifically; the other simply says "the Boston area" and the third doesn't mention it at all). I would assume that the source with a more specific location would be more likely to be accurate; if the source indicates that Poppy is from Whitman then why should it be disregarded?

If list formatting isn't displaying correctly on mobile and you are concerned about it "not looking right", that is absolutely something you should be raising at (and I would encourage you to raise at) Template talk:Infobox album. Employing local workarounds on topics you edit/are interested in instead of raising what is apparently a wider problem is not going to get anything solved. Please tell the editors who can code a fix about it at the infobox's talk page without restoring formatting Template:Infobox album explicitly tells editors not to use anymore. Also, I don't see the point for nowrap templates most of the time, so I have removed your addition of it. It's really not an issue to have a name split on two lines—it has to happen in some places. The infobox or whichever table names are listed in can't always be ultra-wide to compensate for a couple of names or genre names being split up. If one hovers the link, they can see the full linked name anyway. It's not confusing or an inconvenience really at all. The formatting thing though sounds like it is, so I encourage you to try to get something done about it where it counts. Ss112 17:50, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

As you might remember me telling you a few months ago that after you pointed out that without flat list formatting bullet point-listed items bled into one another in infoboxes on mobile, I asked if a template editor could alter the code so the items display the item-separating interpuncts correctly on mobile. The interpuncts display correctly on desktop and mobile without the flat list formatting being present, so you don't need to still hardcode the formatting in the infobox. Also, I noticed that you were the one who added citations to Paramore discography. While I don't think anybody has an issue with more sources being present and I know you edit discographies fairly regularly, you might agree that most editors aren't really going to say that citations are required on discographies for albums and singles when they (all) have articles that prove they are indeed albums and singles. Unless the title itself is contentious, the citations are usually better placed next to the release date, which is generally a more contentious thing and gets fiddled with more regularly, so I've moved the citations there.

Blur's article should go back the way it used to be before all that new content, save the band members section, came in. 2601:407:4100:87A0:4057:2557:7318:4C3B (talk) 22:28, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

If you can do that on those articles and the creators of those articles don't care or notice, fine, but please don't do it on articles I started, let alone rearrange citations you didn't even add. The author's first name doesn't even appear first, it appears after their surname in the final output, therefore your personal preference is just as valid as mine, but the original order should be stuck to if anything. Nobody's forcing you to conform your citations in what you add, but please don't rearrange pre-existing citations just for personal preference. Thanks. Ss112 06:04, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
Imagine Dragons revision undoneHi there, I noticed that you undid my revision of the location of the formation of the band on the Imagine Dragons page, despite the fact that I linked a source to mine as where the original source had no mention of the location of where the band had initially formed. Please don't make edits like that unless you can provide a better source. Thanks. WDJam (talk) 20:54, 18 February 2023 (UTC) System of a DownSee WP:ETHNICITY. We report the nationality of people and groups. We are discouraged from including ethnicity in the lead. If it is important it should be covered in the article body. There are reasons for this. Skyerise (talk) 22:15, 14 March 2023 (UTC) Please don't unnecessarily revert removals of Wikidata-retrieved parameters.Wikipedia's infobox logic was recently updated to internally retrieve certain parameters via Wikidata, a sister project of Wikipedia that stores various values and parameters; and can show that information on Wikipedia pages. That is why I removed the subscriber parameter from the infobox on Jacksepticeye. - Evelyn Marie (leave a message · contributions) 21:56, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
Boy band definitionA boy band can and do play their own instruments. The Vamps, McFly, Busted and even the Beatles in their early days all play instruments. Have you heard of the British groups above? RedSorcery16 (talk) 16:37, 30 March 2023 (UTC) April 2023
Band origins: Iron Maiden and Dire StraitsHello. Over at the Bring Me the Horizon article, you removed South Yorkshire in the infobox, saying that it is not necessary to have anything more added to the "Origin" part of the infobox other than it's city and constituent country. Well, the main reason I am here is because at the Iron Maiden and Dire Straits articles, my edits to the articles were reverted and my edit summaries were ignored, with my edit summaries saying that if a band from the UK forms in a city, it should only have the city and constituent country in the infobox and only the city they formed in as the opening sentence of the article. Also, I have received warnings that say that I must find a reliable source to prove my claims that the two bands formed in London, in which they obviously did. Can you help me with people who can't understand my claims and my edits to the articles? 2601:407:4181:4260:2878:2118:418:D511 (talk) 20:45, 3 May 2023 (UTC) re:July 2023since this is ridiculous, I’ll have you know that common sense is supposed to tell you that the band being plural due to ending with the letter 's' means that it/they has/have to be labeled as “the Backstreet Boys”, like other bands with plural-form names, as well as countries like the Netherlands. sure, we would get the point if it’s just Backstreet Boys without “the”, but I thought this wiki’s writing is supposed to formal and not informal and fyi, this discussion has nothing to do with the band being American and not British plus, other/later parts of the article say the Backstreet Boys, ergo my point stands Geoyui (talk) 19:14, 2 July 2023 (UTC) Just wanted to give you a head-up I removed a piece at Oli Sykes related to his citizenship after finding this which confirms he's still a resident alien of Brazil, not a citizen.

Userelaine (talk) 15:52, 2 October 2023 (UTC) Regarding the Brendon Urie articleWell, yeah, of course Twitter is not a source, however, there's no media outlet that reported on the things why the allegations seem off. They have only reported on the allegations themselves. I have found a few videos (with people having done research), is that a source where you would say that the video is not something to be used as a source in a wikipedia article? XxMVGFan8xx (talk) 21:01, 5 October 2023 (UTC) Five Finger Death PunchHey, based on the current wording of the article and the edit history around it, there's definitely some confusion regarding the "founding members" text. There's some discussion around it on the Talk page of the article.

A lot of it is good, but good articles have a responsibility to be shepherded and I'll admit I'm a little protective. Besides integrating the discography into a separate list, what mostly did you do, of note? dannymusiceditor oops 03:17, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

AlestormWhere would you put the track listing and times? Metalbro (talk) 10:47, 7 December 2023 (UTC) When will wikipedia stop calling every song released an actual official singleYou created the page for "Never There" right? Notice how that is the 3rd single from 13 Voices (2nd sent to radio)? There are 3 promo singles that were released in the exact same way as Rise Up was on that album. You and I both know sources NEVER call new songs promo singles, they call them singles (unless it's an artist like Nicki Minaj or Lady Gaga who explicitly let fans know it's promo only). Look at "Attention". Not only is the Talk section of that page stating it's a promo single due to lack of radio impact, but it had it's own individual release, single artwork, yet is still left as a promotional single in it's article after an entire discussion with several long tenured editors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.117.49.13 (talk) 18:53, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
I would like to know why the source I used was considered questionable?Hello Bowling is life, I had some doubts about some changes I recently made to some pages. I noticed that you reverted them. I recently added ratings to these albums; here are the links to the pages of these albums: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exul https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Weight_of_the_Mask https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_of_Sorrow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Above_(Code_Orange_album) I saw a note saying that the source of the ratings is questionable. I would like to know why the source is questionable or if I added it incorrectly in some way. Thank you very much for your attention. Rocket3dev (talk) 21:58, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

Lots of reliable articles confirms that she is in fact an actress, and rarely mentions "YouTuber". So I don't think it's necessary to remove that especially since she's no longer active on YouTube.

Hello @Bowling is life: In the recent discussion about the album release history table, Andrew318 said that those are distributors, not labels. Feel free to discuss this further there. Regards. 183.171.121.2 (talk) 09:46, 26 July 2024 (UTC) Adding CN tags doesn't workNobody will ever cite sources if I just tag the stuff. I've removed alot of shit that was dated back to 2011. I'd find the sources myself for all of them, but I can't do everything on this site. Nobody will bother to source this shit without the threat of it getting removed from the article. Everyone just wants to readd the content without actually imporving the article. Also, I'm realizing a great deal of long unsourced bodies of text are just blantant plagiarism anyway. It's fucking embarrassing. We're supposed to be maintaining the integrity of an encyclopedia and all everyone wants to do is revert and re-add content without doing anything to improve the article.

User 88.97.194.94You're almost certainly dealing with a sockpuppet of StarryNightSky11. See the investigation archive here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/StarryNightSky11/Archive Multiple socks have repeatedly edited the soccer captain article, and as for the other article, insisting on British English even when it doesn't belong, and constantly edit-warring when others revert him, seems to be his standard mode of operation. (I advised user Panda Girl of the same thing.) 1995hoo (talk) 14:36, 19 September 2024 (UTC) A) One doesn't include any souce in the box for genres b) Many other reviewers used the label goth(ic) rock: Louder Than War, the Independent, etc... wp:genre warriors are a plague.

How you feeling about new Spiritbox?I haven't felt this much excitement for an upcoming release maybe ever, except for maybe Eternal Blue. Today is a good day. :) You don't share much about your personal enjoyment, just your editing habits, but I'm stoked and you've been faithfully protecting and nourishing the band BLP for me which I'm very grateful for, so I can only assume you like their music too. mftp dan oops 18:01, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
