This is getting ridiculous. Two (?) WP:COI editors keep adding poorly referenced and largely irrelevant stuff here. Ballesh is a musician. What musicians do is play music; they perform at concerts, take part in recording sessions. I do it myself, it's no big deal. There is no possible justification for trying to list every bit of music and every gig this person has ever played. It isn't notable, and it most definitely isn't interesting. How would it be if we started trying to do the same for Jasraj, or Bhimsen Joshi, or Miles Davis, or Gangubai Hangal, or Lata Mangeshkar, people with literally thousands of well-documented concerts and recordings?
Those two editors have been asked many times to use this page to propose changes to the article, and have to date ignored those requests. I'd like to suggest that we reach a consensus here on what the text is to be, and then adopt a zero-tolerance policy of instant reversion of further undiscussed changes made by the COI editors. An alternative is to seek administrator action, which I am reluctant to do.
As a basis for discussion, I propose reverting to this version, not because it's the last version I edited (which it is), but because nothing added since has improved the article. Any comment, Shiva2586, KrishnaBallesh, PaintedCarpet, Ruby Murray? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 14:16, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

It's pretty obvious that the following accounts, which have edited this article heavily, are all sockpuppets of serial puppeteer Krishnaballesh:
The first three listed above are inactive. User:Soonuu makes some incoherent claims at User talk:Shaaroo about that being his wife's account, but is still posting new requests (with pings at me) to User talk:Shaaroo. Shaaroo hasn't actually edited since April.
All of the accounts' edits have been promotional for S. Ballesh and his son Krishna Ballesh, with pretty much identically awful writing. The edit history is so complicated that I'm reluctant to take it to a sockpuppet investigation, but other editors might want to have a go. Storchy (talk) 12:50, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
