Of those, I prefer ALT2b. Cooljeanius (talk) (contribs) 21:35, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

I too prefer ALT2b; it connects their current beef to a specific song from 2013 - nearly a decade ago. Yoshiman6464 ^♫🥚 04:06, 7 May 2024 (UTC)

@Cadenrock1 and Evrik: I hate to be a fuzzy-duddy about this (despite being younger than both feud participants) but is there really a need for WP:FANCRUFT-adjacent stuff like the "Full song chronology" section? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:39, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Yes. The songs track the feud. --evrik ^(talk) 02:30, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for leading with inquiry. I haven't been a huge fan of the section since its inception, but I admit it has dramatically improved from its uncited and originally researched genesis. A brief summary of song contents is necessary for a longwinded feud like this spanning many years and tracks. Cadenrock1 (talk) 05:48, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
