There seems to be some whitewashing in case of the band Zvijer, especially in case of this member https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/S.A./3911 . I provided his real name based on official sources, but it was removed over and over again. I also provided his official Instagram https://www.instagram.com/knjaz.316/ as evidence, but it was removed alongside his real name. There is no mod warning on his artist entry, so I thought maybe the user is a band member, but judging by his information I don't think that is the case https://www.metal-archives.com/users/delcev903 .

Looks like it's okay to add the name, but I've asked delcev903 to comment here. Let's wait for that until taking any further actions.

It's not a whitewashing...
Like first, it is not a reality show so you can put peoples Instagrams or Facebook. That is a private thing, they are not official sites, but private. The guy is my friend, and he dont want his Instagram to be related with his music "career".
Second, the name...He had some problems similar like this band because the anti-islamic lyrics: https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Si ... 3540298578. You say "official sources". Well official sources are booklets, line-up names..He never uses his name because of this issue.
Third, I am not a fucking pointwhore, I am member of this site 13-14 years and I have 31.000 points..that speaks a lot...

No one is saying that you are a pointwhore, I just wondered what is going on about is. I agree, maybe this is not a thread where this should be addressed, but I don't know which one is. If you are a friend of his it's ok, now that the circumstances are known, mods can put a warning for that page, so that no one else may add his name. I thought it was whitewashing because the names of live members were removed, but they weren't removed again, so it doesn't matter. Keep up the good work!

Well, in that case he is going about it quite poorly, since the profile literally says "founder and vocalist of band ZVIJER".

EDIT: I have re-added the name. He makes no apparent effort to disguise his involvement with the band on his various social media pages. The connection is clear. There is also this. Please do not remove it again.

Next time the rules I updated I suggest adding the above issue. Simple rule: Don't add private social media stuff of an artist if he/she doesn't connect it to the band, add private social media stuff if he/she clearly does.

There's an open report (http://www.metal-archives.com/report/view/id/666907) but I'd like to request DallasKillerWhale's (DKW) comment here. DKW's a member of Skelteria and he's recently deleted three artists from the band's page claiming that they're no longer considered ex-members.

CHRIS WISE
Chris Wise was added by DKW in 2011:
https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Chris_Wise/6715

KIM SHANK
This Facebook post says that Kim Shank left Skelteria:

So, she/he must've been a member.

ANDY BRATTON
DKW filed those reports back in the day:
- https://www.metal-archives.com/report/view/id/308935 ("Andy Bratton on bass". Sounds like a member to me. No?)
- https://www.metal-archives.com/report/view/id/348535 ("Andy Bratton not active", yet back then it was still OK to keep him as a past member. How come?)

This looks like whitewashing to me, and it's sad that a metal freak would do that - band member or not.

to be fair their email states: "Newly recorded with their current line-up and a few new embellishments, the group is proud to announce the upcoming April 12th release of Inferi - The End of an Era | Rebirth."

Hello,
For the line-up of the new Inferi, I received an e-mail by the label The Artisan Era.
Ok with this screenshot ?

Personal link deleted.

You may add “Chris Wise” and “Kim Shank” back to the pat members column.
But I still stand by Andy Bratton’s exclusion since I will tell you personally he did absolutely nothing during his “time” in the band. He never jammed with me, never answered any of my calls and when he did he made excuses.
In my mind I felt I was making a clarification rather than a whitewash. I realized that as far as Chris Wise and Kim Shank are concerned, I was being black-and-white. I feel it to be unprofessional that someone who did nothing in a project be credited as being part of one.
I posted on comment on Skelteria’s Facebook post regarding this.
On this site, all I want mostly is to contribute info as neutrally and accurately as possible.
I never intend to start any problems and if I do I at least try to fix them.
That’s all I have to say.

He seems to have stopped, as he only did it once, but The_Sandwitch added some sketchy lyrics in his first-ever (out of four) edit.

Thanks for your reply, DKW.
I think the best way to be neutral and transparent when dealing with your band's page is to share your thoughts through a report and let the mods decide, especially that internal matters seem to conflict with what's been publicly announced. Not only would assessment be more accurate, but the information you provide will also be documented (in said report) for future reference.
I'm of the opinion of (at least) re-listing the first two musicians as past members, but I'll leave this issue for Storm, or other mods, to resolve.

I have a suspicion that Classical_Melody created a sock puppet account (Skm9) for upvoting similar bands. I first noticed something with the recent influx of votes for this band in particular. It would be great if someone looked into this.

Your suspicions were correct, and he had previously been banned for doing the same thing. Banned again.

Lucastrueno seems to run Thundersteel Magazine and has put that title as the Alt band name on several pages. He's also made a handful of sloppy edits, like putting a selfie on Nightagh, which he's one of the several members of. I'm not sure he knows what he is doing.

*(This comment is dealing with alot of Hermóðr information)
O.k., this is quite frustrating to have to go back and re-edit some of this stuff that already was (correct) before...... while I can understand to (maybe?) go back and add information (like how he did with CD "Mould" info/ Matrix, etc...., however, I'm not understanding why it's o.k. to go back and delete certain information that was correct to begin with (including release dates that I know for a fact were correct when I put them in!)..... and, then to go back and re-add certain album covers that were correct, were (large) enough (i.e. "Saknad"/ not to mention, it shows that it was changed by him not once, but twice??), etc........ what's going on, what am I missing??? is this o.k.? this really is frustrating......... :( to say the least......

like, (i.e. "Det förflutna") I had "Det förflutna is a compilation of all Hermóðr's EP's and singles from 2013 to 2015 with tracks 5 and 14 being unreleased." -- but, he leaves that there, and then also adds: "All music written between 2012-2014.", and then (deletes) this info: "All songs recorded at Studio Grottan." - the hell?! While the dates are correct (in dealing with the tracks that he edited, cause that's how it's in the booklet, so he was correct there), trying to figure out why he left that part there, instead of correcting it, and then (re-adding) the correct dates, more towards the bottom of the page?

And, like as with "Release dates", Unsure if he is either going by what's on Discogs, or on Wolfspell's Bandcamp, but as far as Bandcamp is concerned, granted the release date shows as: "December 21, 2017".... while that is obviously def correct (for the 'Digital' version), I know that the actual CD release date was on "January 2, 2018".

>>I feel like I need to make a comment on this, cause I'm not yet all sure what I have to ((re-edit)) back for the information to be back to being correct again, cause from the looks of things, https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Mosurg has done some major, hefty editing, and I have only just started to re-edit (now) some of this, as I have checked quite a few of his (re-edits) and some of what he added, or deleted is just wrong info....

I am (not) at all accusing him of point-whoring :) , but I really am not understanding why he did all this, (some is correct, but some is just wrong)....

I also, don't want you guys to think I'm point-whoring either, just merely going back to fix-back to what I know is a fact, correct. Unsure if this is the right forum topic to be writing this comment in(?), so I hope that it is o.k.? :)

This is a rather strange case https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Arioch/35636 . This artist's real name has been removed, although on Stribog's website he is still credited under his full name https://hr-hr.facebook.com/pages/catego ... 042472158/ . Also no reports were made on this artist's page requesting removal of personal info, neither was in the specified forum thread. Plus the band member who listed Cidium into his band list did not request any personal info removal. Even if his name is removed from this site many other sites still list him under his full name, so this looks like a rather pointless whitewashing to me.

This is a rather strange case https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Arioch/35636 . This artist's real name has been removed, although on Stribog's website he is still credited under his full name https://hr-hr.facebook.com/pages/catego ... 042472158/ . Also no reports were made on this artist's page requesting removal of personal info, neither was in the specified forum thread. Plus the band member who listed Cidium into his band list did not request any personal info removal. Even if his name is removed from this site many other sites still list him under his full name, so this looks like a rather pointless whitewashing to me.

Notified, name re-added

Added information about left- vs. right-handedness to an unnecessarily large amount of well-known artists, all with bad grammar.

Hi there folks, I got something that is getting me a little upset and it's not the first time it happens.

I just putted Black Metal band's logo Wolran, here's the modification history:

https://www.metal-archives.com/history/ ... 3540451914

Later the user wojty666 picked the logo I posted and re-submitted it with less KB/clarity/definition (name as you like), just for what? He has 90808 points, and it's not like he edited the logo in his way and later he posted it accidentally later I published that, It's really bad when you're putting efforts for the submissions and magically artists entries disappear just to discover later that the entry is back without any information, or with mistakes or without almost anything relevant incorporated to the new almost-empty-entry, other thing is the change of the logo (which does not need to be corrected) which are replaced for -insert reason here-. If it's necessary changing it, change, but there's no reason for doing it now.. I saw plenty of user doing that thing, I'm not an "alcahuete" (that's how we call to rumourmongers or gossip people in Argentina) but I had to came here, I'm clarifying this because it seems absurd to me that there are users who possess thousands of points and continue to do this kind of thing

1. https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Shadechaser copy pasted Samsa Traum's promo blurb for the last album in the notes... https://www.metal-archives.com/history/ ... /id/769457 I removed/edited it, but if we could school him to stick to factual info that'd be great :)

2. I've been out of the loop for a while, so pardon me if I missed it... are spotify links allowed now? https://www.metal-archives.com/users/CYBEROX_14

edit: he's about to get Veteran status, less than a month since he joined...

3. https://www.metal-archives.com/users/Vega360 adds Winter Solace Productions links that are customized searches, and not band-specific (unrelated products still show up)

Erosion of Humanity and MutantClannfear seem to be adding slam to a giant amount of slamming brutal death metal bands on the archives, I thought there was a rule against this, or have I missed something, If I have missed something please inform me

We've decided to now allow that genre descriptor for obvious cases where slam/brutal death metal would be a more accurate way of describing a band's music.

Please don't go overboard with genre reports on it, though.

Thank you for the update, I may go through some of the bands I have submitted and ask for a genre change then :)
