We've been trying to make various edits to the XCOPY page, at the request of the artist, and they are being deleted. These revisions include updates to numerous factual inaccuracies, as well as spelling/grammar errors. We do not understand why these changes are being reverted, as they do not seem to go against any of the cited reasons (poorly sourced content, basic copyediting, non-neutral point of view, use of primary sources, etc.).
Examples of incorrect information include: city where artist is located, random statements without support (i.e. credited as introducing Beeple to NFTs), date of Grifters launch, sale price of Right-click and Save As guy, spelling of 'Right-click and Save As guy', sales details of MAX PAIN, spelling of MAX PAIN, and others.
Please allow us to implement these changes without deleting/reverting them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Noone.eth ( talk • contribs) 07:10, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
Dear Johnycoal, we have tried to make sensible and accurate changes to this wikipedia page but you continuously revert them back with inaccurate information. For this reason I have proceeded to report User Johnnycoal for edit warring via the WP Admin Noticeboard for obstructive repeated deletion of accurate and proper edits in favor of inaccurate content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Noone.eth ( talk • contribs) 10:07, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
There weren't seem to be any issues with this article prior to the edit war, so I have reverted this article to the latest April's stable version by User:Notcharizard, which includes WP:RS like Fortune (magazine) and others, and doesn't read like an NPOV advertisement anymore. Please feel free to improve it, change it or correct it. Thank you! JohnnyCoal ( talk) 12:35, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi all, I am conducting some scholarly work on Digital Art and Xcopy in particular and am hoping to add some information on this page to give back as I have been using wikipedia a great deal so far. Am still learning wikipedia so am happy to be guided by mods. I have no affiliation to artist and this is upaid work. :) Maxand98 ( talk) 23:12, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
This statement may seem biased, but these are the words used by the study and not sure how to frame. Looking for guidance from mods: Xcopy's work was chosen as some of the most prestigious and successful crypto-art by curators and fellow artists.
