Blocked
You agreed to a topic ban around music genres, broadly construed. This specifically included the fact that you "would be prohibited from editing articles about music genres". As evidence, I offer this edit where I explained the topic ban, including that quote, this edit where I clarified that your acceptance of the topic ban was broader than just infoboxes, and this edit where I unblocked you after you agreed to the topic ban. Within hours, you then violated your topic ban by editing an article about the music genre, Space age pop, which is explicitly listed as a music genre in the introductory sentence of the article. You are done here. I have reimposed an indefinite block for your blatant violation of your topic ban. --Yamla (talk) 12:28, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Mistake

 * As I've already reviewed a block in this matter, I will not review this one; that said, can you understand how it might be difficult to trust you now? All edits count in terms of a topic ban that is broadly construed. If you are going to forget about your topic ban, it is going to be difficult to unblock you. It will be up to the reviewing administrator, but in my opinion in order to be unblocked you will need to agree to a topic ban of music articles period.  331dot (talk) 18:55, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I will try as hard as I can to remember NOT TO EDIT MUSIC PAGES, even if the edits are minor. I am a pretty forgetful person and I don't take notes as often as I should. This time, I will write a note down to remind me to never edit music pages no matter what it is I'm editing. I agree to a topic ban of all musical articles. Kid299 (talk) 19:09, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
 * As blocking admin, I am opposed to unblocking this user at the moment. I think they are failing WP:CIR; a violation that quickly after the topic ban was placed means I think we are best served by giving this user some time away. However, I do not consider it wheel-warring to override my position here, when combined with a broader topic ban. --Yamla (talk) 19:13, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Block evasion
Kid299 was using Special:Contributions/50.247.163.181 before registering a username, and now he's evading his block by returning to the same IP. See the intertwined contributions tool, and these two identical edits. The IP is from Illinois, and Kid299 said he was a resident of Illinois. Binksternet (talk) 03:38, 17 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeap. Lots of overlap, too. This is a pretty clear case of block evasion and substantially reduces the possibility that this user will ever be unblocked. --Yamla (talk) 09:34, 17 July 2018 (UTC)

"Funk-pop" listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Funk-pop. Since you had some involvement with the Funk-pop redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:15, 31 October 2019 (UTC)
