User talk:TheSickBehemoth - Wikipedia

Hi there. You can't just revert someone and say "don't delete this" and proceed to not engage in discussion. I've written about what I'm perceiving as some deep flaws in an article you're maintaining. I'd rather try to hash this out with you before turning to outside input like polling WikiProjects or starting up WP:RFCs. So please participate. Thank you.

I did not see it as I don't check the talk page. Relax. TheSickBehemoth (talk) 18:39, 19 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

I see. Most people who actively maintain/frequently edit a page have it on their WP:WATCHLIST, and you've edited the page multiple times since I've opened the discussion, so I would have assumed you would have seen it. Sergecross73 msg me 18:42, 19 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Regarding your recent Ray Alder change. I checked the album cover, and the text is actually in all caps. Does that make a difference? Or, is there some rule I'm missing? See https://www.amazon.com/What-Water-Wants-Ray-Alder/dp/B07WTZ41YF BigJoeRockHead (talk) 21:31, 18 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. Some of your recent genre changes, such as the one you made to Waking the Fallen, 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. Thank you. SummerPhD^v2.0 22:11, 7 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Look at the cover it's clearly stylised as: ØRD†NARY MAN. I notice you didn't remove "Stylised as: KoЯn" from any Korn articles. Why is it one rule for one band and one rule for another? 94.175.64.92 (talk) 08:23, 21 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Along with the fact that we cannot guarantee the accuracy of the auto-updates, it causes problems with the drawing of bars that leads to additional and unnecessary editing. It's best to keep them as fixed dates. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:56, 22 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

I found that changing one characteristic with the timeline fixes this glitch, such as width of the timeline. Otherwise, would we be constantly updating the fixed date? Seems counterproductive. TheSickBehemoth (talk) 02:00, 22 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Is there some process the modifications are interfering with? ID is a valid HTML global attribute and according to this page it should be within Wikipedia guidelines to use them in table headers as long as they're unique: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Tables Toolateblue (talk) 18:51, 2 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

So, back in January, I added Damnation Angels to the list of artists with material in production on the 2020 in Heavy Metal page. They didn't have a Wikipedia page, so you pulled it, citing clutter prevention. I respect that. I've created a page for them now, but it's not yet received final approval. [1] Their album is due out 7/31. Would you be okay having them added now? Or do I need to wait the ~7 weeks for a moderator to get around to reviewing for approval? I know that adding it now will result in a broken link later, but that's fixable, easy, and I'll be keeping an eye on it. I'm fine either way, but I figure asking saves both a bit of irritation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Okashiikessen (talk • contribs) 14:47, 10 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi there, thanks for reaching out! I'm fine with adding it now. They seem to have decent coverage on various metal-related websites so I don't see why the article wouldn't be approved. And if it ends up not being approved, we can simply remove it. TheSickBehemoth (talk) 16:04, 12 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for reverting your changes on the 2020 in heavy metal music and 2021 in heavy metal music articles, and I know the references didn't mention a release date of next year or even this year, but the reason I just reverted your changes is, according to the articles on MetalStorm, Wizard will be in the studio this month and This Ending will be in the studio next month. Another reason was we're only three months away from the end of the year and I doubt their new albums will be released that early. As for the Sacred Reich, MetalStorm says they're just demoing new material and the article doesn't even mention anything about new music coming out in 2020. Again, I'm very sorry for reverting your changes. You've done a great job contributing to the "in heavy metal music" articles anyway. MetalDiablo666 (talk) 14:54, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

You're also doing a great job with these articles, but you're basing these edits on what you think. They could potentially release these albums this year. All 3 of these say they're in the studio working on or demoing new music. What we know for sure is they're in the studio now in 2020. Unless they say due for release in 2021, they should not be there. Thoughts? TheSickBehemoth (talk) 15:33, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Yes, you're right. Since album release dates are always like "you never know", I've given some thought that we should wait until it's okay to add either one of the bands we mentioned back to the 2020 or 2021 article. My example of that is, let's wait until one of these bands says something like "Yeah, there will definitely be new music this year [2020]" or "Yeah, you can expect a new album next year [2021]", or better yet, if an article on Blabbermouth, MetalStorm or any other website at least mentions a release date, then we can add this band or that band based on the 2020 or 2021 article like we always do. MetalDiablo666 (talk) 16:29, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

P.S. I just removed three of those bands from the 2021 article based on this conversation.

I'm glad we could solve this so quickly and civilized. I agree with your current and most recent edits. Cheers! TheSickBehemoth (talk) 16:36, 8 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
