Gaming?

Hi, Goatseid. Your edit to Rockstar (Post Malone song) appears to be vandalism, and your edit history on List of most streamed songs on Spotify looks strange. Could you explain the purpose of those edits, please? Might you be trying to game the rules for WP:autoconfirmed? That wouldn't do you any good, especially with such a dubious username.

Hi, Bishonen. My edit to “Rockstar (Post Malone song)” was to correctly display the amount of units “rockstar” has sold in the US. RIAA certified the song 5x Platinum as of February 26, 2018. When you check the certification on RIAA’s website it says “Certified Units: 5 Million.” The edit I made matches exactly with RIAA and how every other Post Malone single page (White Iverson, Too Young, Go Flex, Deja Vu, Congratulations, I Fall Apart, etc) displays the amount of units sold. The “165,458” that was listed is incredibly outdated and wrong. As for the “List of most streamed songs on Spotify” page, I simply updated “Rockstar” to “rockstar” which is exactly how the name of the song is displayed on Spotify. I also updated the number of streams for “rockstar” and “Congratulations.” Previously, they were at “859” and “663” million streams respectively, but as of the day of my edit they were at “867” and “667” million streams. You can check this yourself on Spotify by hovering your mouse over the Popularity Bar for each song. The last thing I did was remove an unnecessary space before “Non-album single” and put a space between “Post Malone” and “featuring.” I’m not trying to game any rules and my username is hardly “dubious.” Goatseid (talk) 18:08, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

OK, though I still have trouble seeing the point of an edit sequence like [1][2][3]. And you don't think a name containing "Goatse" is dubious? I'd change it if I were you. Bishonen | talk 21:41, 16 March 2018 (UTC).

When removing “&nbsp,” the unnecessary space, that I already mentioned before, in front of “Non-album single” was removed when I previewed my edit. The following 2 edits were just an undo and a redo because I wasn’t sure if I did it right, so I undid my first edit to check for any differences that may have been caused by it, then I redid it after spotting 0 differences. As for my username, I looked up what “Goatse” is and honestly this is my first time ever hearing about it, but my name is “Goatseid.” It is literally the combination of the word “goat” and the name “Darkseid” (a comic book villain).
