Hey, I think I did something wrong on the One-Hit Wonders in the United States page. Way down at the bottom in the "sources" section, I added Wayne Jancik's 2008 book. (Yes, a physical book that I own) This was so I could create an sfnp out of the citations referencing the book. But when I tried to insert an sfnp for the first entry using the book, (Joan Weber) it came out wrong. It said that there was an error and mentioned "multiple targets". Next, when I hovered over "Jancik (2008)", my book citation came up. But then another issue came up. The entry is the very first entry in Wayne Jancik's book, and is on Page #2. But when I hover over "Jancik (2008)", everything was correct, except the page number was listed as Page #4. (This all happened as I was editing in the source editor and checked the right side (visual) after making the change. So I never officially made the change.) I read the " Template:sfn" page that Wikipedia has, and I am 95% sure that I did everything right. But something is just not working! I need help! Ya Boy Alex! ( talk) 06:04, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
Why did you revert my edit and give me a edit war warning? Reverting the edit didn't help anybody reach a consensus and arguably just contributed to the war even more. — THORNFIELD HALL ( Talk) 03:52, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi Bink. Just a heads-up. A user that both you and I have warned has ignored the warnings and is continuing to make unsourced genre additions to album and song pages (usually "dance-punk").— The Keymaster ( talk) 06:56, 3 December 2023 (UTC)
The editor that was making ungrammatical and confusing edits at "Theoretical key" has mucked it up further and changed its name.

Hello,
I was wondering out of curiosity why you are revering ALL of my edits of the category "American people of English descent"? There are sources provided in many of the articles (though I accept not all) that give information about their English ancestry. Why has it became a controversy with the adding of the tag? Is there something wrong with being of English descent? Most of the colonists and their descendants WERE of English or other British descent at the time. HockeyFanNHL ( talk) 04:12, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
Most of the colonists and their descendants WERE of English or other British descent at the time.You are quite correct. Because "most" were of such descent, saying so doesn't help wikipedians define or compare to others of their time. We utilize categories in order to help define the reasons the subject is notable. For example, if we could prove a subject always wore boots, saying so in a category would not help us define the subject one iota. I have blocked User:HockeyFanNHL until they accept this as the way we categorize on English Wikipedia. BusterD ( talk) 04:32, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Binksternet,
I saw your comment on my edit on My Chemical Romance. I personally disagree with your reversion, however I do not plan on reverting it back nor making any similar edits in the future because you are a much more experienced editor than I and mainly because most active editors on wikipedia seem to agree with you.
So you can maybe just convince me, I'm curious if you can explain your reasoning to me.
When I said that MCR cancelled their tour because of lockdowns, you responded with "the pandemic is the root cause", you seem, therefore, to agree with my statement at one level, but believe that it's more accurate to give the 'root cause'.
This reasoning seems troubling to me. For instance, when we talk about the devastation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we don't say it was because of Pearl Harbor, we say it was because of the dropping of the atom bomb, even though the attack on pearl harbor was the 'root cause'. I think my edit made the page more accurate. There were things done in Sweden that would not have happened in the US because of differences in lockdown, when they both had the same pandemic. Attributing something to the pandemic and not the lockdown I think is obfuscation.
Please let me know where you think my reasoning is spurious. SonsyEpicMap ( talk) 05:25, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed you've reverted my edit on The Weeknd for poor writing, so I wanted to ask you if this one was moreso appropriate: "He is credited as a major figure for the progression of R&B in the 2010s, also being regarded as a prominent artist in contemporary pop music". If it's not I would please ask you to tell me what other parts should I fix. Thank you DollysOnMyMind ( talk) 17:33, 13 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Binksternet,
On the Great White page, I have uncovered and fixed up an old instance of reference link hijacking / vandalism dating all the way back from 2014: diff.
This is just crazy to me, how this vandalism went by, sight unseen, by hundreds of other editors, for over 9.5 years straight.
My suspicions first arose when I saw a citation titled "Great White Shark Attacks On Humans Caught" in the references list. I was like, how could a video about shark attacks be used as a reference in an encyclopaedia article about a rock band? So I started digging through the page's history, for clues. And that's when I discovered the two instances of vandalism the two references went through, from Feb and May 2014. The moment I discovered the original references it all started making sense to me, all of a sudden. Ahh, the official statement on the website definitely lines up perfectly with what's written on the article.
I just wanted to know your thoughts on this if you have any, since music articles are a big focus for you, and this is the first time I've ever seen vandalism linger on a popular Wikipedia page for nearly an entire decade. — AP 499D25 (talk) 08:21, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi Binksternet,
I had a look at the latest instances of IP sockpuppetry from the user that we suspect to be Andrewbf, and found that a good majority of them actually come from this IPv4 /16 range, 187.147.0.0/16. Since the last ANI report made on this was not successful and convincing in getting admins to take action, I have created an SPI report for the 187.147.0.0/16 range:
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Andrewbf
I have provided as much evidence as I could, based on comparisons to previous blocks, usual latest habits, and subject interests. If you have anything to add to the report, that would be great too, since you seem to know a lot about this long-term genre-warring abuser. — AP 499D25 (talk) 03:42, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello,
You left me a message about being biased on Atatürk.
It was not bias, the previous text was biased.
The Ottoman genocide on Armenians is broadly discussed on the page, but someone put in on the front page as of Atatürk had something to do with it. People who quickly read about Atatürk will think he was complicit in the genocide, thus throwing filth on his name.
If you read the rest of the article you will see he was not complicit, but not everyone reads it and the people who want to ruin his name know this tactic... that part does not have to be on his front page as it is not something about him.

I was one of the backup singers on this song and several others when Dawn was a fledgling group. Toni WIne, the songwriter on Candida, was a close friend and a back up singer like me. Jay Siegel of the Tokens was singing too.

Hello, I recently seen your 'talk' message. While I come to understand the issues with editing disruptions there is actually some sort of mistake.

I hope this clears up any sort of misunderstandings.

Hi Binksternet,
I just thought I'd let you know that I have filed an SPI case on the User:Christeningchristina account and User:104.181.148.164 IP address, over at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dcasey98. I noticed that the newly created Christeningchristina account repeated the same edits more or less on the Psychedelic rock page, and had the same tone/'aggression' in the edit summaries as did the previous socks of Dcasey98 this month. Though I'm not very good with the specifics of the language they use in the edit summaries due to being unfamiliar with this user, so I just wrote down one similarity I saw, which is that one of their favourite words to use is "British appropriation" or similar.

Just curious why you're removing all additions to the "In Popular Culture" section of the wiki on A Fifth of Beethoven.

Hi - I'm pretty inexperienced and so I'm hoping you can help me understand what I should have done differently when I added this song's appearance in the movie Blaze. so that I know for the future.

Hey, perhaps this isn't a big deal, but I added a bunch of new people to the OHW USA list yesterday.

Wow.

But I've never seen a vandal as stealthy yet incredibly destructive as this one!! Ugh what a big pain in the rear this looks like to deal with. I ran my mass-rollback tool on some of the music-related edits from the /40 range that appear to be Hanoi-like to me, but unfortunately rollback does not do range reverts, i.e. if they make two edits but both are from slightly different addresses, it'll revert the last individual address to the previous one, rather than revert all edits from the range.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Stix1776 ( talk) 06:17, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello Mr. Bink- I received a reverted edit from you saying not to use a Podcast as a citation
My edit's aim was adding details to an author's history that I felt was missing. These details, (may it be his early personal life or the career pathways he has taken) are significant to his overall writing career and do not appear in his current page. It is extremely rare to find secondary information (as you suggested) about writer's backgrounds; as non-fiction writers tend to be interviewed about their subjects, and not themselves. The interviewer in this podcast actually asked the author about his background and career story...that publicly revealed a significant amount of information that I was adding to his page. Please reconsider that these facts are not in dispute and really should be part of his story.
This is the first time I have attempted to edit a Wiki page, so I am new at this. I ask for your help, please. To your point about taking out the "trivia" (i.e. which hospital he was born), I can just say he born in London etc, and keep his schooling there (I get your point)..... (by the way, no need to use foul language when making your point, I don't need the aggression, thank you). But the rest of the data that I included should be allowed as it enriches the page and his story.....of which is directly from the source himself. Would that help in reconsidering my edit please?
Thank you

Hi,
could I trouble you to explain this reversion in more detail? My impression was that it's SOP for artist pages that don't have a qualifier themselves (like "(musician)" or "(group)") to include hatnote links to self-titled works that do have one (like "(album)"), so I've been adding those when I come across one that doesn't already have it, which is rare. Are there exceptions I should be aware of? Cheers!

Hi,
Thank you for clarifying your changes, but I do not agree with placing a nationality/national identity if this is disputed between countless sources. There are many claims for and against this, especially that Zamenhof's legacy in Russia is meagre and that Zamenhof was both a citizen of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Poland formed in 1917. Erasing his legacy in Poland would be most unwise. Furthermore, I think this needs to go to talk and a Wikipedia:Consensus should be reached. I have restored the original version where nationality is not addressed. Moreover, there was a discussion on L. L. Zamenhof page a while back. Any revert from now on would constitute edit warring.

Hello, I don't know if it's the right place to write but there is this user @ 216.181.9.217 who constantly changes genres in infoboxes. They've been doing this at Anne-Marie for quite a long time now and me and other editors were reverting it to the previous versions but with no results as this person edits it back just hours later. Today I decided to write on their talk page with warning and to let them know to discuss any unsourced changes beforehand but they just completly ignored it and guess what, edited the article again! I saw that person got one warning in February, 2 more from you this month and one from me today. In your last warning you wrote they 'may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time they add unsourced material to Wikipedia'. So I just wanted to ask, can we do something about it now that they are vandalising Anne-Marie's page too? I could be still reverting the edits but I don't see the point in doing it anymore considering that person edits it back hours later. And for context, Anne-Marie is a pop singer (does a bit of dance-pop and had some songs influenced by garage, pop-country, R&B etc.) and that person adds grime and R&B as main genres all the time (and while I can admit some of her early music was influenced by R&B, she never made any grime music). I'd be really grateful if you could have a look at this situation :) Goldlinexy ( talk) 14:52, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
Just to let you know the latest edit on the SPI above two days ago has already been added in the immediate section above with CU already on. But I think you are already aware this user still edits after the latest edit of the SPI, i.e. after 24 March 2024. Hopefully someone on the CheckUser team can act on it before Iggy Azalea etc. gets edited again. Iggy ( Swan) ( Contribs) 16:39, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

One way or another, there's going to be a hatnote. The song I heard on my favorite online radio station may not have been enough of a hit to be notable. Nevertheless, it is mentioned in several articles and I added it to the previous redirect target, but where it is that I added it may be incorrect. You make it sound like the other song is notable, but it doesn't have an article. What do you think?— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Greetings, Binksternet, I have once again, reverted your changes on the Black Sabbath song, Solitude's article, but this time, not without a number of improvements that clearly made the album in-line with the criteria's for noteworthy songs, such as by specifying the song was a B-side to the single, Children of the Grave, has received a multitude of covers and critical acclaim, and several new sources were added.

Hey, I think I did something wrong on the One-Hit Wonders in the United States page. Way down at the bottom in the "sources" section, I added Wayne Jancik's 2008 book. (Yes, a physical book that I own) This was so I could create an sfnp out of the citations referencing the book. But when I tried to insert an sfnp for the first entry using the book, (Joan Weber) it came out wrong. It said that there was an error and mentioned "multiple targets". Next, when I hovered over "Jancik (2008)", my book citation came up. But then another issue came up. The entry is the very first entry in Wayne Jancik's book, and is on Page #2. But when I hover over "Jancik (2008)", everything was correct, except the page number was listed as Page #4. (This all happened as I was editing in the source editor and checked the right side (visual) after making the change. So I never officially made the change.) I read the " Template:sfn" page that Wikipedia has, and I am 95% sure that I did everything right. But something is just not working! I need help! Ya Boy Alex! ( talk) 06:04, 1 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello,
I was wondering out of curiosity why you are revering ALL of my edits of the category "American people of English descent"? There are sources provided in many of the articles (though I accept not all) that give information about their English ancestry. Why has it became a controversy with the adding of the tag? Is there something wrong with being of English descent? Most of the colonists and their descendants WERE of English or other British descent at the time. HockeyFanNHL ( talk) 04:12, 5 December 2023 (UTC)
Most of the colonists and their descendants WERE of English or other British descent at the time.You are quite correct. Because "most" were of such descent, saying so doesn't help wikipedians define or compare to others of their time. We utilize categories in order to help define the reasons the subject is notable. For example, if we could prove a subject always wore boots, saying so in a category would not help us define the subject one iota. I have blocked User:HockeyFanNHL until they accept this as the way we categorize on English Wikipedia. BusterD ( talk) 04:32, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Binksternet,
I saw your comment on my edit on My Chemical Romance. I personally disagree with your reversion, however I do not plan on reverting it back nor making any similar edits in the future because you are a much more experienced editor than I and mainly because most active editors on wikipedia seem to agree with you.
So you can maybe just convince me, I'm curious if you can explain your reasoning to me.
When I said that MCR cancelled their tour because of lockdowns, you responded with "the pandemic is the root cause", you seem, therefore, to agree with my statement at one level, but believe that it's more accurate to give the 'root cause'.
This reasoning seems troubling to me. For instance, when we talk about the devastation in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we don't say it was because of Pearl Harbor, we say it was because of the dropping of the atom bomb, even though the attack on pearl harbor was the 'root cause'. I think my edit made the page more accurate. There were things done in Sweden that would not have happened in the US because of differences in lockdown, when they both had the same pandemic. Attributing something to the pandemic and not the lockdown I think is obfuscation.
Please let me know where you think my reasoning is spurious. SonsyEpicMap ( talk) 05:25, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi. I noticed you've reverted my edit on The Weeknd for poor writing, so I wanted to ask you if this one was moreso appropriate: "He is credited as a major figure for the progression of R&B in the 2010s, also being regarded as a prominent artist in contemporary pop music".

Hi Binksternet,
On the Great White page, I have uncovered and fixed up an old instance of reference link hijacking / vandalism dating all the way back from 2014: diff.
This is just crazy to me, how this vandalism went by, sight unseen, by hundreds of other editors, for over 9.5 years straight.
My suspicions first arose when I saw a citation titled "Great White Shark Attacks On Humans Caught" in the references list. I was like, how could a video about shark attacks be used as a reference in an encyclopaedia article about a rock band? So I started digging through the page's history, for clues. And that's when I discovered the two instances of vandalism the two references went through, from Feb and May 2014. The moment I discovered the original references it all started making sense to me, all of a sudden. Ahh, the official statement on the website definitely lines up perfectly with what's written on the article.
I just wanted to know your thoughts on this if you have any, since music articles are a big focus for you, and this is the first time I've ever seen vandalism linger on a popular Wikipedia page for nearly an entire decade. — AP 499D25 (talk) 08:21, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
Hi Binksternet,
I had a look at the latest instances of IP sockpuppetry from the user that we suspect to be Andrewbf, and found that a good majority of them actually come from this IPv4 /16 range, 187.147.0.0/16. Since the last ANI report made on this was not successful and convincing in getting admins to take action, I have created an SPI report for the 187.147.0.0/16 range:
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Andrewbf
I have provided as much evidence as I could, based on comparisons to previous blocks, usual latest habits, and subject interests. If you have anything to add to the report, that would be great too, since you seem to know a lot about this long-term genre-warring abuser. — AP 499D25 (talk) 03:42, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello,
You left me a message about being biased on Atatürk.
It was not bias, the previous text was biased.
The Ottoman genocide on Armenians is broadly discussed on the page, but someone put in on the front page as of Atatürk had something to do with it. People who quickly read about Atatürk will think he was complicit in the genocide, thus throwing filth on his name.
If you read the rest of the article you will see he was not complicit, but not everyone reads it and the people who want to ruin his name know this tactic... that part does not have to be on his front page as it is not something about him.

I was one of the backup singers on this song and several others when Dawn was a fledgling group. Toni WIne, the songwriter on Candida, was a close friend and a back up singer like me. Jay Siegel of the Tokens was singing too.

I just thought I'd let you know that I have filed an SPI case on the User:Christeningchristina account and User:104.181.148.164 IP address, over at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Dcasey98. I noticed that the newly created Christeningchristina account repeated the same edits more or less on the Psychedelic rock page, and had the same tone/'aggression' in the edit summaries as did the previous socks of Dcasey98 this month. Though I'm not very good with the specifics of the language they use in the edit summaries due to being unfamiliar with this user, so I just wrote down one similarity I saw, which is that one of their favourite words to use is "British appropriation" or similar.

Wow.

But I've never seen a vandal as stealthy yet incredibly destructive as this one!! Ugh what a big pain in the rear this looks like to deal with. I ran my mass-rollback tool on some of the music-related edits from the /40 range that appear to be Hanoi-like to me, but unfortunately rollback does not do range reverts, i.e. if they make two edits but both are from slightly different addresses, it'll revert the last individual address to the previous one, rather than revert all edits from the range.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Stix1776 ( talk) 06:17, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello Mr. Bink- I received a reverted edit from you saying not to use a Podcast as a citation
My edit's aim was adding details to an author's history that I felt was missing. These details, (may it be his early personal life or the career pathways he has taken) are significant to his overall writing career and do not appear in his current page. It is extremely rare to find secondary information (as you suggested) about writer's backgrounds; as non-fiction writers tend to be interviewed about their subjects, and not themselves. The interviewer in this podcast actually asked the author about his background and career story...that publicly revealed a significant amount of information that I was adding to his page. Please reconsider that these facts are not in dispute and really should be part of his story.
This is the first time I have attempted to edit a Wiki page, so I am new at this. I ask for your help, please. To your point about taking out the "trivia" (i.e. which hospital he was born), I can just say he born in London etc, and keep his schooling there (I get your point)..... (by the way, no need to use foul language when making your point, I don't need the aggression, thank you). But the rest of the data that I included should be allowed as it enriches the page and his story.....of which is directly from the source himself. Would that help in reconsidering my edit please?

Hi there. I changed some information for the release date of the debut KISS album. If you read Behind The Mask (the authorized biography), it clearly states the record was actually released on the 8th of February, NOT the 18th. You can keep out my addition about the discrepancy behind the release, but I implore you to keep the changes about the 8th being the release date.

Hi,
could I trouble you to explain this reversion in more detail? My impression was that it's SOP for artist pages that don't have a qualifier themselves (like "(musician)" or "(group)") to include hatnote links to self-titled works that do have one (like "(album)"), so I've been adding those when I come across one that doesn't already have it, which is rare. Are there exceptions I should be aware of? Cheers!

There was nothing wrong with my edit to The Monkees. Please do not allow "your own point of view, or your own personal analysis" to affect how you view edits. My rewrite is more descriptive and more accurate. It changes nothing about the information, point of view or analysis of the article. I'm sure the message you sent is just a copy/paste whenever you undo an edit you don't like, but try not to let your personal opinions cloud your editing. 128.151.71.8 ( talk) 13:13, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Hey Binksternet--do you have a magical place you can pull some sources out of, for this record? It's really good! ;) Drmies ( talk) 23:48, 2 March 2024 (UTC)
On 6 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article We Work the Black Seam, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Sting wrote " We Work the Black Seam" because he felt that "the case for coal was never put to the nation" during the 1984–85 British miners' strike (which began 40 years ago today)? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/We Work the Black Seam. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page ( here's how, We Work the Black Seam), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi,
Thank you for clarifying your changes, but I do not agree with placing a nationality/national identity if this is disputed between countless sources. There are many claims for and against this, especially that Zamenhof's legacy in Russia is meagre and that Zamenhof was both a citizen of the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Poland formed in 1917. Erasing his legacy in Poland would be most unwise. Furthermore, I think this needs to go to talk and a Wikipedia:Consensus should be reached. I have restored the original version where nationality is not addressed. Moreover, there was a discussion on L. L. Zamenhof page a while back. Any revert from now on would constitute edit warring.

Hi, I see you've been removing bold from some music articles quoting MOS:boldface, I looked at it and don't really see how it pertains to line-ups sections of some articles. Just wondering what part you've been interpreting as the guideline for that. Mewhen123 ( talk) 13:17, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
On Tupac's page it was removed that he is a symbol of activism and fight against inequality. I have various professional sources that demonstrate his work as an activist (in fact he was also a very influential activist), can I send them to you to edit the page? Tupac in addition to being a rapper, was also a very important activist Pier1999 ( talk) 13:40, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
More typical of the literature is this piece in The New Yorker which says that Tupac's parents were activists, but he was living the thug life of conspicuous luxury and excess. Binksternet ( talk) 01:19, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
I've seen this edit summary before but this user has one edit (at this time) do you recognize it? or do you know a way to track edit summaries? No big deal, but when I saw the summary, I thought you'd be the one to ask :P - FlightTime ( open channel) 21:13, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I don't know if it's the right place to write but there is this user @ 216.181.9.217 who constantly changes genres in infoboxes. They've been doing this at Anne-Marie for quite a long time now and me and other editors were reverting it to the previous versions but with no results as this person edits it back just hours later. Today I decided to write on their talk page with warning and to let them know to discuss any unsourced changes beforehand but they just completly ignored it and guess what, edited the article again! I saw that person got one warning in February, 2 more from you this month and one from me today. In your last warning you wrote they 'may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time they add unsourced material to Wikipedia'. So I just wanted to ask, can we do something about it now that they are vandalising Anne-Marie's page too? I could be still reverting the edits but I don't see the point in doing it anymore considering that person edits it back hours later. And for context, Anne-Marie is a pop singer (does a bit of dance-pop and had some songs influenced by garage, pop-country, R&B etc.) and that person adds grime and R&B as main genres all the time (and while I can admit some of her early music was influenced by R&B, she never made any grime music). I'd be really grateful if you could have a look at this situation :) Goldlinexy ( talk) 14:52, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
Just to let you know the latest edit on the SPI above two days ago has already been added in the immediate section above with CU already on. But I think you are already aware this user still edits after the latest edit of the SPI, i.e. after 24 March 2024. Hopefully someone on the CheckUser team can act on it before Iggy Azalea etc. gets edited again. Iggy ( Swan) ( Contribs) 16:39, 26 March 2024 (UTC)
My fact was removed about Hank never playing Your Cheatin' Heart live with the Drifting Cowboys because I had no reference. It was told to me by Don Helms, the steel player on the session. That should be good enough. If you don't believe it you will have to dig up his grave and ask him. You don't need to act like you know it all. Steelplayer2022 ( talk) 15:35, 31 March 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I'm DrKC MD. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Stop selectively removing content I add.

Hey, I'm TheTechie. I noticed that you used a {{uw-vandalism4}} for an editor who has been block evading. Please note that it is likely better to not add that they are block evading in the description, as it may make the LTA'er more likely to keep abusing. That is all. If you reply, please ping me, my username is TheTechie. Thanks, thetechie@wikimedia: ~/talk/ $ 22:08, 3 April 2024 (UTC)
Hey Binksternet, you're pretty adept at identifying whose socks new accounts are. Does Kepin' it FUNKY look like somebody to you? MariaJaydHicky perhaps?

While i was fixing up the article called This Is It (concert residency) from a few hours ago, but you reverted that article from these 2 edits from IP address.
Can you please double check on that article and revert to the way it should be? If not, please explain why you reverted that article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2403:5811:E30A:0:AD28:A16C:8D60:EEAF ( talk) 16:21, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
One way or another, there's going to be a hatnote. The song I heard on my favorite online radio station may not have been enough of a hit to be notable. Nevertheless, it is mentioned in several articles and I added it to the previous redirect target, but where it is that I added it may be incorrect. You make it sound like the other song is notable, but it doesn't have an article. What do you think?— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:28, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

I'm not sure if this was intentional, but these edits of yours completely gutted the middle part of story of the 47 Ronin. including many referenced sections. Please fix up the article. Jpatokal ( talk) 09:27, 13 April 2024 (UTC)
Greetings, Binksternet, I have once again, reverted your changes on the Black Sabbath song, Solitude's article, but this time, not without a number of improvements that clearly made the album in-line with the criteria's for noteworthy songs, such as by specifying the song was a B-side to the single, Children of the Grave, has received a multitude of covers and critical acclaim, and several new sources were added. At this point, it seems the song's addition is fully justified, but if you still have any doubts, just take it down again and we'll end it there. Diskyboy ( talk) 22:27, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
This is your only warning; if you make personal attacks on others again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. You have continued to go out of your way with Ad hominem behavior and refusal to participate in discussion of your edits in a civil fashion. Pleases stop your petty harassment of me. In particular, you have no business attributing comments on talk pages to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DrKC MD ( talk • contribs) 02:55, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
