Lyrics one by one.

Seems like the last incidence of him adding lyrics 1b1 is in 2015, and the last time he added any lyrics at all was in 2018 and they were added in a single save then. He's also not a very prolific contributor from the looks of things, so there's no hurry to warn him at the moment.

That said, if he starts adding lyrics 1b1 after I post this then by all means feel free to bring him up again.

His first modification, but could benefit from some basic guidelines... Had the wrong label (though a bit understandable since it's available in the Nuclear Blast webstore), wrote in all caps in the version description, had wrong capitalization in the album title and song titles ("Of" and such is common, but not "anarchy"), wrote in the additional notes "All track listings are unknown as making this" and "Unknown for now" in the identifiers and recording info fields, didn't seem to research whether the album had a side B.

Adds YouTube links to videos instead of band's official channel.

Edit: He also have done a real mess with links of his bands. Very likely trying to "promote" his own bands by linking every single band he plays or have played in via the "related links" tab, i.e. adds links from one band to another band's page.

Added the unreleased album Human Genocide to Godsent Human page. The album was recorded in 1993, but never officially released. It was only recently uploaded to Youtube for streaming, but it seems, that the upload was not done by any othe band members.

This user added inappropriate trolling/vandalizing notes and obscene photo of a person to this following artist page.
https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/ ... ers/864572

I know the profile of that user has been delete but I think it's worth bringing it up here since such behavior is totally unacceptable. The name of that profile before it got deleted was "haydenishot" so I think it might has something to do with another profile on modi. history of that artist page which is named "haydenishigh".

This user should be banned:

Banned.

Dude seems to be hardworking, but has edited basically all the digital releases I have added for Minoria Activa based on physical releases (changed name, tracklists, labels, deleted track lengths, etc.) instead of adding other (physical) versions for these releases.

The source for digital releases is bandcamp: https://minoriaporsiempre.bandcamp.com/

Maybe he should be warned/schooled to do proper research, be more careful or something.

EDIT: What a mess... I went through his edits and fixed it.

Catching up on the backlog here...


Banned for blacklist evasion...oh well, no great loss. *shrug*


Album deleted and notice sent...best to just flag reports for album deletions though.


We can't really do anything to deleted accounts (and they can't be brought back either). There's also no IP matches between the accounts, so not much we can really do right now (haydenishigh also appears to be the artist himself and I doubt he'd vandalize his own page). That deleted account has an IP match to this one that was registered the same day, though: https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Mrmeesix No activity yet, but worth keeping an eye on it for wrongdoing.


Warned.


BuriedUnborn is a relatively benign user, surprised to see him doing something like this...I've directed his attention to this thread.

Sorry, I've been out of the site for a while and I might have forgotten about some stuff, and I saw the page was basically a big mess and so I started editing it as if it was just a draft and got a bit lost. I've practically edited the whole pages for the releases because the main versions where the Bandcamp releases which were released in recent years, and when I add a new version, even if its older than the main one, in the main page, it won't show up as the main version and an album released in 2002 will still appear as released in 2015. I now realize that it would have been a better idea to just add those as a new version and file some reports so the mods could set the original releases as the main version of an album instead of taking a long way and editing everything and re-adding versions, but I felt like doing everything by myself and doing it everything AQAP because I had other stuff to do and I had my mind set on just editing everything and leaving it as perfect as I could.

So yeah, I fucked up a bit and I did something that only a rookie would do, I'll make sure to not do it again if I come across a similar situation in the future, unless there's something that I don't know even after a long time editing the site. Go ahead and remove points out of my account if necessary, as I've also edited a page multiple times within a short span of time because I forgot to add something or just found new info as soon as I saved a page, so I might have point-whored a bit.

Just going to take the liberty of quoting this part as it's indeed what you should have done.


But I do appreciate the explanation, and it's no problem. Don't worry about points being taken away, we don't dock those for honest mistakes or forgetting things or what have you. Was just kind of curious as to why you were editing everything the way you were.

Adding lyrics 1 by 1

Warned.

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Thrasymachus92

Basically all edits he made so far are incorrect...

Hi! Today I found some updated information done by this user https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Tio%20Lu.

He was updating some infos with sexual terms probably for pranking someone and this is not the purpose of Metal Archives.
I think this user should be notified and punished.

Banned.

Is it a thing to ban this user?

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/wellmemed

https://www.metal-archives.com/report/v ... 4/show/all
https://www.metal-archives.com/report/v ... 7/show/all

Those offensive remarks are completely redundant.

To avoid the edit wars, this user should be notified as he doesn't know capitalization rules:

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Dr_Zed

https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/A ... .../892961

He's been warned.


Made aware.

TVVR, I sent a warning message to Thrasymachus92 and cleaned up the mess.

Ah, thanks. Wanted to do it myself but never got 'round to it.

Edit: Btw; good to have you on board!

Thanks, I appreciate that.

Check this user out:

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/LucaLukk
https://www.metal-archives.com/history/ ... /id/833598

and his line-up modification with a word "factotum". Is warning needed?

Here's a user whose recent "work" is probably worth looking into: https://www.metal-archives.com/users/NATHICANADEGE
Within the last few hours, added a Portland, Oregon label's Bandcamp link to a Nebraska Death Metal label's page. Similar names, but otherwise incomparable labels. I see there have been a handful of warnings for the user already.
https://groundzerorecords.bandcamp.com/music (link that was added to the page below)
https://www.metal-archives.com/labels/G ... nment/1717

Also incorrectly added https://hvrofficial.bandcamp.com/music to https://www.metal-archives.com/labels/H ... ords/52897

Damn, that's not even the same country, and their only release is a Pentagram 7" from '79? Very sloppy.

I just clicked on one more random Bandcamp link that user NATHICANADEGE added, for Scarecrow Records:
https://www.metal-archives.com/labels/S ... cords/3704 (label from Mexico)
https://scarecrowrecords.bandcamp.com/music (Bandcamp page of Greek record label added)

It's obvious that this user is only looking at the name of the record label, and seemingly not even glancing at important details like country, titles, to match them up. Not sure what the typical course of action would be, but a warning or ban would be good, the sooner the better.

I think this may have been lost in translation, since it seems to be an archaic term for various roles. I've created a report and requested his input.

https://www.metal-archives.com/report/view/id/733075

really? trying to get me banned? maybe tell that person to stop reporting everything that he sees in the queue with no explanation of whats wrong.

He's just providing additional links that might help deal with the submission.
Nothing you should in any way care about.

Warning sent to NATHICANADEGE. Double and triple YouTube links being added. Asked them to double check recent work. Will check back on it in a few days and clean up what is still necessary.

Can someone stop this madness:

Another to nuke:

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/NiggerRapist

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Asmodeo050214 lyrics 1b1, dubious ellefson entry (2-disc digital?), very unsure about the lyrics he added on the theatre of tragedy as it's a remix album, but can't check right now...

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/BillReaper Lots of 1b1 edits of lyrics, track duration and other album fields from today til way back in his mod history.

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/JaredDinesIsANigga this dude should be banned quickly, he his uploading unrelated pictures in a lot of band pages

Btw it looks like this is the same dude as : https://www.metal-archives.com/users/NiggerRapist
Idk if you can ban his IP adress, but this one is probably going to come back...

https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Tr ... eToBeRaped he's back here
