Sumo Cyco
Hi @Halationsummer, you are currently engaged in an edit war with me on the Sumo Cyco page. I can see that you are a new user, so perhaps you are not familiar with protocol around edit warring. Please familiarize yourself before proceeding. I reverted your first set of edits. Once that happens, only under rare circumstances should the reverted editor revert back, but that is what you did. When I called you out on edit warring, you turned it around on me and accused me back. This is simply poor form on your part.

Now, as for the Sumo Cyco single "Mercy", I see no source anywhere stating that it was released in 2011. Apple Music lists it as issued in 2012, and Discogs puts it at 2014. Even if the band released a video for the track in 2011, that doesn't mean it automatically became a single, as that is just not how single releases work. Until you find a non-primary source that supports a 2011 release, I suggest leaving the entry at 2012, according to Apple Music. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 03:17, 5 July 2023 (UTC)


 * As my own firsthand account of being a fan in 2011 won't pass as a source, maybe this archived copy of the band's own website from 2011 will suffice. Historically, they've always tried to coincide music video and single release to be as close as possible, and that was extremely the case when the band was getting started. LIMP and Mercy were released concurrently as their first singles. https://web.archive.org/web/20110414215409/http://www.sumocyco.com/ Halationsummer (talk) 04:27, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * And honestly music databases get years wrong a LOT. Windows Media Player always is off by a year when I rip CDs yet it always manages to correct itself. Halationsummer (talk) 04:30, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
 * And the 2014 year was to promote their first album by having the previous non-album singles be included in a limited CD release. Halationsummer (talk) 04:31, 5 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I see your point, and as you suggested, I've also seen incorrect years on Apple Music before. I suppose we might as well leave it as 2011, since your case appears stronger than mine. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 05:00, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
