 * Can you guys please stop reverting every single one of my edits, actually look through them before reverting, 90% of them are not disruptive. Category adder :D (talk) 03:44, 27 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Nope - FlightTime  ( open channel ) 03:46, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * That makes no sense. Category adder :D (talk) 03:47, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Most of them were done with no consensus, and often went against it. Please do explain how you believe your edits aren't disruptive, and we'll bite. Regards, User:TheDragonFire300. (Contact me &#124; Contributions). 04:01, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Alright, well in actuality, most of my edits weren't just genre changes and things like that, I added plenty of good reliable sources and rewrote/created plenty of articles, I admit I've been pretty ignorant as to my editing recently, but if you guys actually look through my past edits before reverting you'll see the majority were not disruptive at all. Category adder :D (talk) 04:04, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry to hear that, but that's an unfortunate consequence of the mass rollback tool that was used to revert your edits. If you want to place diffs, I can give advice as to whether they were constructive or not (though I will not be able to implement and/or reinstate them, per our policies on editing on behalf of a blocked editor). Regards, User:TheDragonFire300. (Contact me &#124; Contributions). 04:08, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * As I stated at ANI, indefinite does not mean infinite. If you show understanding of why you were blocked, and explain what you'll do differently, I'd be happy to either see you unblocked or do it myself. The Blade of the Northern Lights ( 話して下さい ) 04:09, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Would you like me to put it in the unblock reason thing, or just type it here? Category adder :D (talk) 04:11, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Since I'm about to go dark here make an unblock request, you should get an outside review relatively quickly. And to any reviewing administrator, you're free to unblock without consulting me; I'm watching this page so I'll see the result.

 * Alright, thank you for guiding me. Category adder :D (talk) 04:29, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Not too late to say: U deserved that indefinite blocking u pseudo-glam metal fan XD V°cc (talk) 20:10, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
 * No kidding. The guy went around adding glam metal to everything. Keep an eye out for such edits if you see him again under a different username. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 12:14, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I need some input from you guys here as you've dealt with this user in the past. Im pretty sure this is a new sock of Category Adder: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/AgentKozak The user has done nothing other than add the genre glam metal to articles since registering in May 2023 and has a tendency to misinterpret sources. I've previously asked them about it (1 and they've blanked the talk page afterwards (2) --FMSky (talk) 10:29, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Hmm, it definitely has a whiff of Category Adder, especially the fixation on bulk-adding glam metal. However, if it is, he's done his homework a bit. He never used to ask for permission at talk pages—instead he just reverted and came up with his own WP:SYNTH on content.. although this one appears to be doing the latter as well. Their 'vibe' is also similar—polite, no belligerence. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 12:30, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
 * No, that's not Category adder. I know it seems like unnecessary bureaucracy, but it would be better in the future to file a case at WP:SPI instead of pinging CheckUsers from some random user's talk page. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 13:07, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Sockpuppet of Glam metal fan 5150
I filed the first report at Sockpuppet investigations/Glam metal fan 5150 a year and a half ago, and now says to Category adder, "You're probably a sock of User:Glam metal fan 5150." The comment spurred me go back and look through the old report and compare old and new behavior. I agree with NRP's guess because of the overlap in article edits and the shared interest in expanding the List of glam metal bands and artists. Category adder spent a lot of energy trying to make the glam metal label stick to Ugly Kid Joe, continuing the effort of Glam metal fan 5150 sockpuppet from two years ago. This looks to me like they all have the same fingerprint of interests and behavior. Binksternet (talk) 02:08, 30 August 2021 (UTC)
