Please do not add or change content, as you did at Stephan Moccio, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 19:51, 20 February 2024 (UTC)


 * I am his personal assistant and am getting the information from Stephan

 * Moccio cannot dictate his biography on Wikipedia. Wikipedia exists to summarize published sources. It is not for people to add whatever they want to. If published sources talk about Moccio working with all those people, then cite your sources. Binksternet (talk) 21:23, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Ok, I understand that, however, all the artists that you keep removing are people he has collaborated with and released music with. So since you are the gatekeeper of everything with this, can you please do your due diligence and input the correct information? It would be a lot more helpful than trying to prove a point and taking down his work. Dean Cotrone (talk) 22:50, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
 * That's not how this works. Other editors are not responsible for your postings. You are. You must supply reliable sources for your assertions. If other people that are notable by themselves have collaborated, then show sources. -- Alexf(talk) 22:46, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi guys! Long time reader first time replier! :P @Alexf if what you've said is true, your argument above is just riddled with logical fallacies. You're not allowed to make a claim to credibility (as @Binksternet has done above) and poke holes in a perfectly valid submission–such as this one–under the basis of your subjective view on the authenticity of said content. The very act of this invalidation demands answers; and without any, such an act gives the perpetrator (in this case @Binksternet) an implicit bias towards those who have arranged the page in question–along with any and all information that goes on to represent one such individual on the Wikipedia platform.
 * Doing this while subsequently attempting to remain completely neutral and detached from the clear, personally motivated action of invalidating this submission indicates corruption, and shows a clear divorce from reality. Further, I feel your response lacks the proper citations itself to present as credible on the matter. See the attached article on Relevance, and please refrain from replying further on this chain. We wouldn't want this comment section to get muddied up any further, now would we.
 * Finally, if what @Dean Cotrone said above is true–that he does in fact act as a personal assistant to Mrs. Moccio–he would, then, himself, be able to act as a perfectly valid source for MUCH needed citations; assuming of course that this information is published in a format that is in line with Wikipedia's guidelines on source citations. Someone correct me if I'm wrong!
 * Before leaving off, I just want to say: lord knows this website wouldn't be able to function without high quality citations! Thanks to the brave users of this platform who keep it alive by policing the streets and keeping our proverbial "neighborhoods" clean! Nice work boys!!! 98.165.199.88 (talk) 00:28, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you very much for saying this. I feel under attack for no reason... I am now banned from making edits, while on the phone with Mr.Moccio. I have never edited a wiki page before and am not familiar with all the nuance. I just feel that him asking me to input these edits with him as a credible source should be more than enough.
 * I thank you again for having my back. I think instead of them just deleting, since they feel so strong about this, they should do the research on the names I added and they will see he has worked with those artists. Binksternet has also deleted names from the list that I did not add and have been on there since the page was created!
 * I feel there are better ways to go about this and I thank you for mentioning that. Dean Cotrone (talk) 00:38, 29 February 2024 (UTC)
