January 2023

Hello, I'm Fragrant Peony. I noticed that you recently removed content from Immunity (Clairo album) without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.

I was moving it to its own tab. You reverted before I made the second edit. Fob183 (talk) 00:15, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to Feels Like Summer (Weezer song), without providing a source or establishing a consensus on the article's talk page first. Genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 06:22, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I was putting the source in Composition. Fob183 (talk) 19:34, 26 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Explanation needed

I'm going to need an explanation from you as to why you are choosing not to understand the notes I have been leaving in my edit summaries. We are required to remove to redundancies on Wikipedia as they are not encylopediac – this includes genres, regardless of whether or not they are sourced. They can still be redundant even when sourced. When you have pop rock already sourced, having "pop" and "rock" separate in the infobox with pop rock makes absolutely no sense. You have the combined version of those two genres and the separated two genres... why exactly? Please explain to me why this redundancy belongs in an article for an online encyclopedia, or just how it even remotely makes sense overall, seeing as to how you haven't been able to understand through my clearly laid out edit summaries.

Looked at the American Beauty/American Psycho edit history, and after I Twinkled a genuine thought to improve the article, I thought you might be confused given the above old message. You seem to have taken this message to heart, as you tried to apply with the genres on the album's page. Albums are trickier with this kind of thing; on one individual song, it is easily redundant to have both, but with an album with many tracks, it is much easier to have a wider berth of professional opinions on what it does or doesn't sound like. I get that the edits I'm referring to ([1]) happened a good two weeks ago at this point, but you seem to be editing in earnest so I wanted to leave this here and hopefully clear any confusion. dannymusiceditor ^oops 02:14, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Vulture

In other media (IOM) sections are NOT just indiscriminate entries dedicated to listing every single appearance. We can only list the most notable or significant ones. Even then, WP:RS says we need to provide a reliable source to back them up, per the hidden note in Vulture's IOM section. I purposefully kept the Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Spider-Man 2 entries hidden because the former technically doesn't count as a Vulture appearance and the latter is basically a non-appearance. I even said in an edit history that Vulture's death is significant, but there are rules to follow and you cannot just ignore them at your leisure. I'd rather let the experts handle that sort of thing for me rather than meddle with something I don't understand. Blazewing16 (talk) 20:34, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

April 2024

Hello, I'm FlightTime. Please refrain from changing genres, as you did to Blink-182 (album) even if you provide a/some source(s), you'll still need to start a discussion on the article talk page to allow editors who regular watch that page a chance to discuss the reliability of the source(s) you provided. One reason is, genre sources can easily be considered an opinion and not fact. Genre's are a touchy subject here on Wikipedia and without discussion/consensus, regardless of your source(s), your addition or removal will most likely be reverted. Your edit has been reverted and archived in the page history for now.

Unsourced genre changes to suit your own point of view are considered disruptive.

Thank you. - FlightTime (open channel) 20:22, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
