The Wikimedia Foundation Community health initiative (led by the Safety and Support and Anti-Harassment Tools team) is conducting a survey for en.wikipedia contributors on their experience and satisfaction level with the Administrator’s Noticeboard/Incidents. This survey will be integral to gathering information about how this noticeboard works - which problems it deals with well, and which problems it struggles with.
The survey should take 10-20 minutes to answer, and your individual responses will not be made public. The survey is delivered through Google Forms. The privacy policy for the survey describes how and when Wikimedia collects, uses, and shares the information we receive from survey participants and can be found here:
If you would like to take this survey, please sign up on this page, and a link for the survey will be mailed to you via Special:Emailuser.

I'm currently involved in a dispute over at Miley Cyrus & Her Dead Petz regarding the genre tags in the infobox. User:Aleccat added psychedelic pop without discussing it first, and now both they and User:Ss112, the only other user involved, are refusing to continue the discussion. So what can I do without breaking policy to make sure that this change doesn't remain? I can't revert, because that would be edit warring, and the other users aren't willing to discuss it. Fan4Life (talk) 17:40, 27 January 2018 (UTC)
It actually is on plenty that I see. Perhaps not Ariana Grande articles; doesn't matter where you're looking. It's still a format a song can be released in. Your edit has been reverted, so please discuss this on the talk page if you disagree with its inclusion, and do not edit war per WP:BRD and WP:CONSENSUS. Thank you. Ss112 15:42, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi there. Sources such as Billboard don't refer to "Imagine" as a promotional single, but let's wait until it is released. For the time being, im not unding your changes but i want you to know that we don't need confirmation from an artist or their team. If a song is released for sales it's a single, WP:BLUE applies unless something else is said otherwise. Best regards! --Miaow 18:09, 12 December 2018 (UTC)
Hi. With my evidence, I doubt that Side2SideDW and Techoliver298 are the same person. Side2SideDW remains inactive since July 15, 2017. Four months later, Techoliver298 created on November 20, that has continued by months and make obvious that whenever s/he edit the page s/he will be the same person.
If you feel the evidence is strong enough to warrant the SPI then go for it. 2402:1980:246:3413:1218:1217:E6CC:6789 (talk) 09:16, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
Billboard called "disco" shortened for "Discotheque" which redirected to "Nightclub", rather than a disco genre. 2402:1980:8249:F438:7066:7F10:ABE9:B237 (talk) 19:15, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
Can you please vote or comment at Talk:Walking on Air (Katy Perry song)#RfC: genre infobox dispute involving the genre infobox dispute on the page? 2402:1980:8253:BB42:A207:2831:C638:FA7D (talk) 07:39, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
Hi Fan4Life. In "Composition" section says elements of disco music. However the Billboard link from the section, does not said it such, and here's another Billboard link. 2402:1980:8240:34F:1071:C76F:76B2:109B (talk) 05:15, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
Ariana said on Twitter that it’s not a promotional single. [8] I also provided 10 sources that call it a single. Dare to revert me one more time and I’ll email an admin to block you.—NØ 21:47, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Could you add today's show, in Tampa, and the one of Orlando, which is tomorrow, in the tour dates please ? AnthonyFG (talk) 20:24, 28 May 2019 (UTC)
I see, thank you for answering. And I see that a Manchester date was added, but I don't recall Ariana saying anything yet about Manchester or any ticket sales about the date. Is it sure ? AnthonyFG (talk) 07:18, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
Oh okay, I forgot, thank you. AnthonyFG (talk) 20:50, 15 June 2019 (UTC)
Sorry for writing so much, can you remove the Raleigh show in 'Cancelled shows' since she does one date in November ? AnthonyFG (talk) 18:21, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
That is true, thanks. AnthonyFG (talk) 18:42, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi, sorry it's me again, someone changed the Edmonton show numbers. Could you change them, if you know them please ? AnthonyFG (talk) 22:14, 19 July 2019 (UTC)
Just wanted to direct you to a talk page discussion I started regarding the order of songwriters listed for "Monopoly". I saw we reverted each other edits, so I didn't want to engage in an another edit war. Hope we can reach a consensus.
Unrelated yet related, I wanted to let you know I appreciate your Ariana-related edits. You've put in a lot of work and devotion! Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 00:29, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

I think the best thing to do regarding your concerns is to propose "Don't Call Me Angel" for deletion, not PROD it. Please don't edit war over the removal of the entry just because the song's title is not 100% officially confirmed; it's been reported on as the title. Expunging all links to an article is not preferable over consensus determining an article does not meet our notability criteria and it being deleted. That's when removing the entry from all three discographies/all links elsewhere would be justifiable. Thanks. Ss112 01:23, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Ariana Grande 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 don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Your 3-month block for edit-warring expired a couple of days ago. You immediately resumed your edit-warring. This was pointed out to you by Ponyo, whose warning you removed, and you then switched from edit-warring at Nicki Minaj to edit-warring at Ariana Grande. I have therefore indefinitely blocked you.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:43, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Fan4Life (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I didn't edit war. In both cases I made an edit, it got reverted, I reverted back, and it got reverted again, after which I stopped and let it go. Even if I had been edit warring, that wouldn't justify an indefinite block per WP:INDEF. Fan4Life (talk) 18:59, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
You need to commit to using dispute resolution in the future. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 21:14, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the ((unblock)) template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

Request reason:
I wasn't aware that reverting a revert could be considered edit warring, I thought that by not reverting again after my edit was reverted the second time I was avoiding becoming involved in an edit war, but now I know that's not the case and I should've used dispute resolution after my edit was reverted the first time. In future I will make sure I follow WP:BRD and use dispute resolution. Fan4Life (talk) 13:49, 16 February 2020 (UTC)
Decline reason:
I wanted to hear Bbb23's opinion as a check on myself, but I agree that the Standard Offer plus the conditions discussed here would beneficial and allow you to better reflect on your actions and perhaps delve into the edit warring policy a bit more. I am declining your request, I would suggest that you wait the six months for the SO. (so August) 331dot (talk) 16:41, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
