I'm really unclear about what, if anything, the ping template does. Oh, well. — Aladdin Sane ( talk) 05:46, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
In case you wondered, the above is a song reference from my generation. From the disam page: "Talk of the Town", a 1980 song by The Pretenders.
I didn't really mean it at first, but you are being discussed at " I mentioned you as a contrary reference on my User talk page.". The "you" in the title refers to Rjensen, not Bryce Carmony. The discussion, however, does, as it descends from the ANI. As I might have said there, "Shocking, just shocking" (a reference to the movie Casablanca), and meant both sardonically and in a diminutive sense, as was the original quote. — Aladdin Sane ( talk) 11:26, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
Still want to delete?♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:31, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
There was recently a deletion debate which you took part. The debate continues on the talk page of the article (see talk:Melee). Please join the debate so that a consensus can be reached on the initial issues of whether it is appropriate to include the maintenance {{ coatrack}} at the top of the article Melee. -- PBS-AWB ( talk) 17:08, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

You are being contacted because of your participation in the proposal to create a style noticeboard. An alternate solution, the full or partial endorsement of the style Q&A currently performed at WT:MoS, is now under discussion at the Village Pump. Darkfrog24 ( talk) 21:20, 22 May 2015 (UTC)
Hi Bryce! I just wanted to check in. How have things been going for you since our discussion? I must say, I'm impressed with your continued commitment to the 'Pedia, and professional demeanor on your user page. I don't doubt that you're an excellent editor, so I want to make sure that nothing has turned you off of editing. Do you feel any less stressed by other editors? Or do you feel like hitting your head against the wall at present? ;-) – voidxor ( talk | contrib) 01:27, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
The Beatles were a band. See [1] and please stop blindly reverting. Calidum 04:15, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
I'm glad it got sorted out at The Beatles but please don't take it too far in the other direction. Generally in the U.S., the verb used with sports teams follows the nominal number of the team's name - so, Washington Redskins "are", but Minnesota Wild "is". See
Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Plurals. Thanks.

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Tunnel boom. Your edits have been reverted or removed.
Do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively may result in your being blocked from editing. Carrying on with your war on singular and plural usage by making a further clumsy and unwarranted edit - while the matter is under discussion at ANI - is clearly deliberately disruptive.

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at A II Z, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Andyjsmith ( talk) 07:37, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
I have had a look through your contributions. Frankly, you seem to go right up to the line of being blatantly disruptive without ever crossing it. In particular, you seem to get tied up in the sort of thing documented at Wikipedia:Lamest edit wars#Wording, which should give you a good indication that what you frequently you argue over is not really that important. I don't think you're at the level of causing blatant and imminent disruption to warrant a block, but I will support the community's decision to block you, which means you have some serious work to do now if you are to avoid losing your editing privileges. I would start by apologising to the people mentioned in this section and admit that you got over-heated and argued about things that weren't important - that would be a start to regaining some respect.

Please stop your repeated disruptive editing over "are" and "is" in connection with bands. Regardless of what you think on this matter Wikipedia's own Manual of Style is quite clear on this issue. Here is the relevant section at https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:Bryce_Carmony&action=edit§ion=new :
"Proper nouns that are plural in form take a plural verb in both AmE and BrE; for example, The Beatles are a well-known band; The Seahawks are the champions, with one major exception: in American English, the United States is almost universally used with a singular verb. Although the construction the United States are was more common early in the history of the country, as the singular federal government exercised more authority and a singular national identity developed (especially following the American Civil War) it became standard to treat the United States as a singular noun."
It is evident, therefore, that "The Beach Boys are" is correct grammar in American English. Afterwriting ( talk) 12:35, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

Per
this discussion, you have been indefinitely banned blocked from editing. The consensus here is that your efforts constitute
disruptive editing Indefinite does not mean infinitely, but I would suggest you wait at least a year before appealing this block and ban, and strongly suggest you not attempt a return in under 6 months. Hopefully the time away and some perspective will provide some insight on the collaborative nature of the project. You can read

Hi Bryce,
Representing several fan club members of West Coast Midnight Run™ we thought you may want to add the title of the publication to your Coffee Table Book page. The publication is along the lines of an art book/coffee table book with strong qualities influenced by lifestyle and entertainment magazines. We invite you to look them up and contact their editors for more information if they qualify. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:E000:A886:7500:9842:2D27:82F4:E21C ( talk) 04:07, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
