Talk:Music Sounds Better with You

On additional information
@Popcornfud, why are you reverting my edits? The info I add is more complete detailing, and helps to understand context for the song. Please do not revert them, maybe reword them to flow better. There is no reason why you should be removing this info. BarntToust (talk) 16:36, 15 July 2024 (UTC)


 * I do want to finish adding the info from the video before you do. Can you please wait? BarntToust (talk) 16:37, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * The info you added is good, it was just poorly written. I kept the relevant additional info and rewrote the prose. Popcornfud (talk) 16:38, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I sorted the info myself, and kept the background away from the recording. I do want to put proper detailing here. It's explanatory. Thanks for your help on this. BarntToust (talk) 16:49, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * @Popcornfud, I don't see what is wrong with the specifics I added. also, you removed the images of Bangalter and Braxe, which I simply do not understand. I cannot advocate for minimalism when it becomes this "dumbed-down" in terms of lack-of-information. BarntToust (talk) 19:22, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * you also write that as teenagers, Braxe and Diamond bought house music. They were into house music when they went to gay clubs in the the late 80's. maybe 17-or 18, but their boarding school days would have been closer to, say, early teens. BarntToust (talk) 19:25, 15 July 2024 (UTC)
 * citations? An article about a band that existed for one song is what this article is about. It's not minimalism. It's preventing the article from acting as a coatrack for other materials. – The Grid  ( talk )  13:24, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * A coatrack, in case you were not aware, is a means through which several, fully-developed sub-topics are made in a single article to feign notability for a topic. This is not that. This is an explanation for how the music genre came about, how it came under notice of the musicians, in the context of giving a basic background to how the song came into existence.
 * here is your citation, @The Grid: BarntToust (talk) 14:07, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * You can find the gay stuff in the billboard article here BarntToust (talk) 14:08, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * @Popcornfud did agree with the inclusion of this information; they even copy edited it for concise presentation in the Background section, which I thank them for. BarntToust (talk) 14:10, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * As I wrote above, I'd like to include the information you added, which is cited to reliable sources, but it must be well written and properly integrated.
 * I rewrote the material you added in this edit, but you rejected this and restored your version. Popcornfud (talk) 14:15, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I am going to have to be the person who noticed the state this article is in, and who invesigated it. Both parties are right. Both parties are kinda wrong. Bart Toust is right that the info should be included. The Grid and Popcorn fud are right about it needing to be written properly.
 * The way you are all going about this is wholly wrong, the lot of you. Collaborate on a solution that includes BarntToust's info, but also holds to the writing standards that Grid and Popcorn need to keep up. this entire "feud", (if it can even be called that, more like an improperly-executed discussion), reminds me of a bad TV episode where the characters get into a cluster of trouble because they simply can't or don't communicate properly. 2600:2B00:9639:F100:282D:933B:D824:B63 (talk) 14:16, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * As I said above: I rewrote the material BarntToust added in this edit, but they rejected it and restored their version, complete with broken English. Popcornfud (talk) 14:21, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * @Popcornfud, I'm really sorry. I wasn't done citing the areas in the video and the articles of the information that i had added, and wanted to get it all down so copyediting for the whole could be done in the full context. Can I canibilize your format in that edit with my version so it can be written properly? BarntToust (talk) 14:19, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * That sounds like the right thing to do. Let BarntToust use the rewritten prose from the version PopcornFud is calling back to, mixed properly with his expanded version, and write all the info together. I may even help reword some stuff, if I can help.
 * Just as BarntToust has been writing all that info down, everyone who wants things properly formatted has a duty to properly format them. Maybe BarntToust should have put one of those "this article is under heavy editing or expansion" notices at the top of the page when he was editing. 2600:2B00:9639:F100:282D:933B:D824:B63 (talk) 14:28, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Take another look at this version of the article. What information do you think is missing and how do you want to integrate it? Popcornfud (talk) 14:30, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh no, I kind of just did that on my own. I'm sorry. I added the images, the audio sample, the video cites, and the info that i fact-checked. Sorry about that. If it needs to go before gestation, I understand.
 * I'll look through that version and take text from it to ensure the parity between what we all have agreed upon. BarntToust (talk) 14:46, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I have restored the last stable version for now per WP:BRD but I will look at your proposed changes in detail later and report back. I'm sure there is a way to integrate this detail, but please be patient and find consensus, there is no rush. Popcornfud (talk) 14:48, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * PopcornFud's version did have factual inaccuracies, and they were fixed by BarntToust's edits. stay with the version that BarntToust has appeared to just have mixed up. I don't think the version that PopcornFud has is better than the one that BarntToust has had; it has several fallacies. I'm reverting it to the synthesized version. 2600:2B00:9639:F100:282D:933B:D824:B63 (talk) 14:51, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * So far, neither of you have consensus for any of your edits. You need to take the version of this page that has NO FALLACIES and edit from there. you can't build a house based on a broken, flawed foundation. 2600:2B00:9639:F100:282D:933B:D824:B63 (talk) 14:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * This is not in line with Wikipedia policy. Please read WP:STATUSQUO, which says To eliminate the risk of an edit war, do not revert away from the status quo ante bellum during a dispute discussion, and the essay WP:STABLE, which explains it in more detail.
 * The article should be restored to the last stable version before this dispute began, and stay that way until we reach a consensus. Please undo your change. Popcornfud (talk) 14:59, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Same editor as the IP. i just made an account for this discussion. just wanted to declare that. I'll undo the change. YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 14:59, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Right now, I'm only going to add back the background section. that is something we can agree on. YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 15:02, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Yeah, go ahead and get the background section out of the way. That's something @Popcornfud copyedited themselves, and is verifiable. BarntToust (talk) 15:10, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Actually, no, let's let @Popcornfud look at | this version so they can give their thoughts before we publish it. BarntToust (talk) 15:12, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I'll check this out in the next 24 hours. Hold tight, we will find a compromise that works this out. (BTW, you don't need to tag me every time you mention me, I'm following this discussion.) Popcornfud (talk) 15:15, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I agree. I want to do work going forward based off the version that @BarntToust has cooked up. it only requires basic edits for flow and wording, "copy editing", as you will, while the last stable version (while stable, has fallacies and needs eons of work with expansion) stays up until we decide. I'll too check out the above version and see what needs work after a look over. YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 15:21, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

A notice for the collaborators
In order to make judgement and concerns regarding an expanded version of this page much easier for everyone involved, I've drafted the content of my pitched page (minus copyrighted material, which should be re-added in the article space once all concerns are addressed) over to User:BarntToust/sandbox.

For the pleasure of viewing, editing, and other contributions by @YodaYogaYogurt154, @Popcornfud (won't @ you any more than this, just here on this separate topic), and @The Grid, as a plan to copyedit for subsequent re-pasting once the involved parties are wholly satisfied with the contents of the page. If such a plan does not seem satisfactory, then we can find another means for solution. I just want to make things easier for everyone. A good day for all involved! BarntToust (talk) 17:49, 17 July 2024 (UTC)


 * check that out. it's definitely got that important information, and Popcornfud can play with wording to say what needs to be said in the best way to say it in, if it is not mostly said in a great way as it stands. YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 21:01, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I used that draft to make a new edit. You can view the diff at my sandbox here. See the edit summaries for some inbetween edits to see the explanations for some edits.
 * I removed the timestamps for the YouTube source because they really gum up the prose. There may be a way to insert them into the citation footnote themselves.
 * I want to add that much of the stuff BarntToust added was very good — well researched and properly cited. It's almost all relevant information that makes the article better. (I even used one of the sources to add some extra info myself.) My only ask is that we integrate it better into the prose. Popcornfud (talk) 22:55, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I made an edit or two to address your concerns for the timestamps per the DJ Mag video and a copyedit or two. Thank you for adding the info from ABC Australia. I'd wanted to add more in myself, but didn't want to mess things up too much as things stood. Maybe, down the road, I'll check out the podcast that ABC Australia did with Braxe, and if I find anything important enough for our judgement, i'll be sure to see how it should be added in. I only trust the podcast to be an acceptable source of info because The Last of Us season 1, in its entirety as a good topic, uses a first-party companion podcast for vital info throughout its episodes. Maybe growth can be fostered for this article yet more? not today, certainly though.
 * I'm happy with the state your user draft is in, and fully support moving that version to the article space now, if you will. The cover art (which legally in the United States doesn't qualify under copyright law, but I removed it anyway) and the audio sample can be added back in with the edit, per the current version. Thanks for working with me on this Popcornfud, and thanks Yoda, for being the third party who told us both how it is and what we needed to do about it. it's also cool to see The Grid hanging about as well! BarntToust (talk) 02:25, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I concur. A job well done by everyone! YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 14:03, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Good call on removing the cover art regardless of copyright status, I looked it over, it shouldn't have been a problem, but it's good either way in the end. YodaYogaYogurt154 (talk) 14:05, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I've been busy but I'll get back to this in the next couple of days. Popcornfud (talk) 00:43, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
