Pucchigumi

Hi, I undid some major changes you made to the article, I am happy to work with you through Talk:Pucchigumi to discuss improvements. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 02:10, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Red links on disambiguation pages

Please don't unlink useful red links as you did at Love letter (disambiguation). Some red links, it's true, have no business on dab pages because they are not linked anywhere else, are links on non-notable topics, or are leftovers from deleted articles. But the links you removed are on article-worthy topics and are used in articles. These are useful on dab pages, per MOS:DABRL. Thanks.—ShelfSkewed Talk 17:56, 30 August 2019 (UTC)

Arina Tanemura

Hi, I undid some of your edits at Arina Tanemura. "Short story" is more specific than "one-shot" and it is also used in encyclopedic contexts as well (Anime News Network sometimes reports it as such). Also, while I understand your intentions of listing her as a singer, Arina Tanemura is not professionally known as one. I suggest reading MOS:CONTEXTBIO for information. lullabying (talk) 23:36, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

September 2019

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Jeffery (mixtape). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 16:54, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Altering credits

Hi. Just a note, all_writing parameters should not have a long note explaining what the track listing template or its columns mean. If you need to write two sentences to explain the layout of the table, it's going to be confusing to readers and should not be done. The way you edited the credits of Kim Petras' Turn Off the Light albums was not an improvement so has been undone. Please discuss any further changes on the relevant article talk pages. Thanks.

November 2019

Hello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Billie Eilish, have conflicted with our neutral point of view and/or verifiability policies. While we invite all users to contribute constructively to Wikipedia, we urge all editors to provide reliable sources for edits made. When others disagree, we recommend you seek consensus for certain edits by discussing the matter on the article's talk page. Billiekhalidfan (talk) 21:42, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

I saw the Kiwi Farms revisions...

...and yeah, that is technically a legit usage of cum. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 19:15, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Ah, I get it now. However, I still wouldn't call Kiwi Farms a wiki at all, and I have yet to see a single source, reliable or otherwise, refer to it as one. --Vaporgaze (talk) 19:34, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Paris Jackson

Thanks for cleaning up my muddle - not sure how I managed to blank it all, probably doing it on phone, or computer playing up slightly. And I'm always telling people to use Preview and/or look at their edit after hitting "Publish". Must try harder. PamD 13:05, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

Billie Eilish Instrumentation

I had added an addition of instrumentation of Piano to Billie Eilish's page however, both Ukulele and Piano were removed. I would appreciate your comments on the situation over at the talk page as I believe removal of both are unfair, especially considering the subject in question is 17 and has just barely scratched the surface, despite having number one albums this year.

Hootenanny disambiguation link

Hi - you correctly point out that neither Hootenanny nor Hootenanny (TV series) redirect to Jools' Annual Hootenanny but Hootenanny (UK TV series) does redirect there. I think that's a valid reason for a disambiguation link - your thoughts? --Tvcameraop (talk) 15:12, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

• @Tvcameraop:I disagree, as there are no other British TV series named Hootenanny.--Vaporgaze (talk) 15:32, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
  • Indeed. Although technically there's The Hoot'nanny Show, which is similar, however it doesn't have a page on here nor would I argue it to be notable. --Tvcameraop (talk) 16:33, 5 January 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Forever (Sleep ∞ Over album)

I have made an article for Sleep ∞ Over. Perhaps you can use the sources already present to expand it, but it should be enough to warrant your issue in the AFD. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 00:06, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

Constructive suggestions

Hi, the article here would be better and more sourced by copying and pasting the entire text source here, it will result like this. Can you do it because some articles need an account to edit. Thank you!--2605:B100:51C:26D9:C80:938D:3D94:D468 (talk) 19:22, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

• @2605:B100:51C:26D9:C80:938D:3D94:D468:Um, did you message the wrong user? If not, why are you asking me about this? I have never edited, let alone visited, this article in my life; in fact, I had never even heard of the subject until today!--ⓋᎯ☧ǿᖇǥ@ℤε💬 19:24, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
  • Oh, turns out I can't ping users without accounts. I'll just have to hope they get back to me.--ⓋᎯ☧ǿᖇǥ@ℤε💬 19:26, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

I know that you don't know this topic, it will make you discover it, I ask you that because you are currently on Wikipedia.--2605:B100:51C:26D9:3D2F:5663:E7D8:755A (talk) 19:30, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi Vaporgaze, you can ignore these messages. The IP editor has been disrupting that article for many years and is evading a ban from editing Wikipedia. The article is protected from editing because of them so they occasionally harass newly-extended-confirmed editors to try to get someone to proxy edit for them. You can ping me for more details if you're interested, but like I said, you can safely ignore this whole thing. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 21:46, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

@Ivanvector:But I'm not newly extended confirmed. I was extented confirmed all the way back in August... ⓋᎯ☧ǿᖇǥ@ℤε💬 21:55, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, they're not very selective, and I'm guessing at what their criteria is. I know that they know they need to be extended confirmed to edit the article, but not much else. Ivanvector (^Talk/_Edits) 21:57, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

I Don't Wanna Die... versus I Don't Wanna Die and redirects

I have removed your addition of the redirect template to Turn Off the Light, Vol. 1. I don't know why you think users would be adding an ellipsis to a title if they're not even sure it needs to be there. Most users do not add extant punctuation to titles in simple searches, and besides, none of the other songs listed at I Don't Wanna Die contain an ellipsis. Nobody's going to confuse the Petras song that has an ellipsis for a title without it, so it's been removed. If you have an objection beyond this, please raise it at Talk:Turn Off the Light, Vol. 1 because I don't think this is a likely confusion at all. I have seen several instances of where you have added redirect templates in the past several months, and I think you need to start being more selective with where you place it.

Beyond that, I have just looked at your contributions and am seriously baffled. Users have hounded me for years in saying I create too many redirects, but looking at yours, it really appears 90% of your contributions at least for the past couple of months are creations of song redirects. Forgive me if this sounds rude, but is this really your main reason for being here? It looks like you started out adding entries to disambiguation pages but then found this wasn't enough, so now every day you cycle through your favourite(?) albums and artists or what you've been listening to and create redirects for every single song on them, seemingly with a particular focus on creating redirects for everything you could possibly think of for both Loona and Kim Petras. We get it, song redirects are helpful—sometimes several may be helpful for one if there are extra artists on the song to potentially disambiguate with or ways of referring to the song, but Vaporgaze, this redirect creation of yours is extremely excessive, even coming from me. Before you immediately jump to the defensive, no, there are no guidelines against it nor a limit on how many you can make. But inevitably you will attract the attention of more experienced users who will grill you harder than this on it, and I'm sure they're going to say there are far better and more productive ways you can spend your time here, like actually creating articles. If you reply, I do not require a ping. Ss112 20:43, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited My Inspiration, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Harold Davis and William Hutchison (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
