Blink-182
Hi – listen, I don't think I want to get involved too much here, as my edits will just keep getting reverted by the same editor. I don't know if you're new here (I'm inclined to think that you're not, but I see it as relevant because I think experience is valuable when making contributions here), but I edit a lot of band articles (including featured and good articles), especially the band members/timeline sections, and all I was doing was editing the section for Blink-182 using the same method. Yes, I understand that everything may have been "fine" before (despite nearly 50 edits on the page in the last 24 hours alone), but I was just trying to get the section to appear with the same format as other band articles, including the ones that I edit. The only reason why I came here first is so that I could get someone else to understand my point of view.  4TheWynne (talk) (contribs)  11:14, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * What I meant by talk I meant the Blink-182 talk page, I guess I wasn't too clear on that, so my bad. Kingdomofhabbo (talk) 11:26, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I know what you meant. Like I said, I opted to talk to you first.  4TheWynne (talk) (contribs)  11:30, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Oh, okay. Well I honestly think the way it currently is fine. The timeline looks fine and easy to read the way how it is. I've also noticed you don't like it the way it lists Hoppus' role as bass guitar, so you change it to just "bass". The problem I see with this is that just listing it as "bass", it's too simplified. Bass can mean anything bass guitar, double bass, stick bass, etc. You have also stated the format you used is the way it's done normally. Can you please show me Wikipedia guidelines stating this? --Kingdomofhabbo (talk) 11:45, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Let me reiterate – the way it's done normally by me, and the way I see it done. There are no real guidelines for this, but if you reread my previous message, you might understand what I mean. And with "bass", you'll find that the term is almost unanimously used over "bass guitar" – and I don't think there would be any confusion there, as it is a rock band article.  4TheWynne (talk) (contribs)  11:57, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * So, is it to be kept the way it is (for the Blink-182 page)? I think we both have a basic understanding of how we see the layouts of Wikipedia pages, and there are no wrong or right ways of looking at it, either. THis is why I believe it's time for you to start a discussion on the Blink-182 talk page to see where it goes from there. Kingdomofhabbo (talk) 12:07, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * To be honest with you, I can't really be bothered going through that at the moment (too much opposition anyway). If you believe that it's fine how it is, then I'll leave it alone – for now. I'm not trying to sound lazy, but I've always found fighting a one-man battle on the talk page about something like this an arduous task. Thanks for taking the time to talk to me, though (and now you have an active talk page).  4TheWynne (talk) (contribs)  12:17, 28 January 2015 (UTC)


 * Not a problem. Nice talking to you, take care. Kingdomofhabbo (talk) 12:21, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
