Block evasion by User:Cannedcorne

I just wanted to remind you that WP:EVASION states these accounts should be recommended for blocking without warning. I realize this may have been an accident on your part and that's totally fine! I just wanted to be sure you knew! Have a great day/evening/night and thanks for all you contribute! <3 ~ Philipnelson99 (talk) 00:48, 7 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Philipnelson99: Thanks for the fact about the sock puppetry. Actually, that user is actually User:Smallmouthbassboost, the master account, who then create more accounts to vandalize Taylor Swift related articles. It's really driving me crazy and I felt really annoyed by that behavior. I actually used someone's method for that warning when someone is evading a block. Once again, thanks for your suggestion and I will try to keep that in mind. Raritydash (talk) 18:43, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Invite to discussion

Do not know if you would be interested, however, in knowing your experience in editing music-related articles, thought you would like to participate in the discussion here. livelikemusic (TALK!) 21:01, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, sorry for the late response but I will say it on my talk page as I do not want to get involve with this argument. I do agree that just because the song is included on the album doesn't mean it is a single unless the artist say so and looking at your edits on what are you doing, it does seem to be a valid response and the IP doesn't seem to corporate well.

Thank you; it's a case of harassment and Wikihounding right now. Gotta love it. Thank you for contributing your two-cents to the discussion. It truly was not an argument until personal attacks were made, and I refuse to be involved in that. livelikemusic (TALK!) 23:48, 27 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Sure no problem. And you know, I was in this situation too last year like in The Champion (song), I removed "Cry Pretty" as it is not a single for this album like this and then a month later an IP revert me but then revert him/herself. So I'm pretty sure that there is an article that would say that not to add the song that is included on the album unless it is a single confirmed by artist.

I do believe there are plenty of them, however, I do not see that making an impact unless multiple editors chime in. Right now, it is a one vs one argument (and the second person is clearly only siding on personal accord). livelikemusic (TALK!) 00:06, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rarity, did you read the talk page? What you just described actually describes what LLM has been doing. A user named Falconer tried to explain to him why all five songs should be in the infobox as official singles, but he inexplicably refused to acknowledge his argument. So HE is in fact the person that is refusing to cooperate. LLM, on the other hand, didn’t tell me any actual reasons why his line of reasoning should stand, yet me reverting his edits is me “refusing to cooperate”? So what you’re saying is if someone changes something without explaining why, and it looks wrong, you shouldn’t revert it? That’s not how this site works. Or at least, it’s not how it should work.

And LLM, I’m not siding with Falconer out of any personal vendetta against you (although I do think the way you edit is extremely antagonistic and obnoxious). I disagree with you because I disagree with you. I’ve explained my argument several times, yet you keep chalking it up to “he clearly just doesn’t like me”. You overlook any actual arguments I make just because I don’t like you. Please grow up. Also, “it wasn’t an argument until personal attacks were made”? Is that why you called Falconer’s reasoning “bullshit”, and be told you there was no need for that? That sounds pretty argumentative on your end. 2601:48:8100:9740:F469:9EC6:7F1A:5D80 (talk) 00:08, 28 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
