Please refrain from adding, removing or changing genres, as you did to Gaucho (album), 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. isento (talk) 16:37, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent editing history at Gaucho (album) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. isento (talk) 17:58, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

April 2021

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. Kinu ^t/_c 19:10, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Creating Yacht rock disagree is a pretty quick route to having your block extended.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 20:46, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have extended this block to an indefinite one due to abuse of multiple accounts and block evasion. --Kinu ^t/_c 22:01, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

yacht rock

I dispute that this album. is ‘yacht rock’ as a genre. I provided a source which disputes this fact in a published article. genre is a point of view not a fact Gavdav68 (talk) 06:02, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You repeatedly edit-warred in a manner that was against the consensus on the talk page about this issue, then used a sockpuppet to evade your block and continue your edit warring. Until you address your behavior, the block stands to prevent continued disruption to the encyclopedia. --Kinu ^t/_c 14:02, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Steely Dan - Album Gaucho

it’s states that Genre is ‘Yacht Rock’ I would favour that this be amended with an asterisk * next to this genre description stating that this a disputed description. I have published articles to back this up. Gavdav68 (talk) 15:17, 16 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You, or rather the other account, cited one opinion piece. That doesn't invalidate the other professionally published opinions cited in the article supporting the genre. Please just give it a rest. isento (talk) 11:01, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
