WP:CITEVAR
Please do not move citation parameters around to where you prefer them on an article you did not create. If the editors who created the other Swift articles you've devoted extensive amounts of time to expanding and promoting to GA/FA don't care that you didn't follow the citation formatting they originated, fine, but I do. There was zero reason to do this other than your personal preference. Per WP:CITEVAR, the editor who created the page determines the citation formatting and where it is placed, and this should be followed unless a good reason to change it has been presented. You also clearly copy-pasted a whole section's worth of citations from some other Swift article without even changing their access-dates, which you should have done. Thank you.

 * Neither was I aware of WP:CITEVAR, nor I prefer a specific citation format as I mostly use visual editing tools to auto-generate citations. I do not have any personal favorites among citation formats like you think I have. I apologize for the inconvenience, however. And, yes, I copy-pasted some prose since they share the same background but made sure to re-phrase it. I will be more careful about the citation formats hereafter. Thank you.

 * Thank you for explaining. I did forget Visual Edit does that.  Ss  112   11:33, 28 February 2023 (UTC)
 * As I just said in my summary, if coming back onto the article involves noticing citations that I only re-ordered back to how I had them yesterday are moved around by Visual Edit again, that is going to become very frustrating. I don't get what you get out of using Visual Edit to edit; surely you should be familiar with HTML source code editing by now. I don't mean this to sound rude, but I can see now why editors give up trying to maintain articles they created on Swift that you've decided to expand, because the incessant maintenance after your editing sessions would become tedious. You wrote things one way yesterday, then you completely rewrote them multiple times today, including insisting that "(Live from Paris)" is so important it needs mention in the track listing when of course all the tracks are live—it's a live album. By the way, you should not restore content that was removed by another editor per WP:BRD. If that approach hasn't gotten you in trouble before (it might have; I don't know), it probably will in future, so please avoid doing that in future. Thank you.  Ss  112   12:48, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I respect and take the suggestion you've made in the final sentence of this reply, but I don't find the rest of this relevant to the issue. Please refrain from making personal attacks or commentary; they are not constructive. I am not equipped to handle the passive aggression of your latest reply, so I do not wish to further expand on the things you said and turn this into an argument. Coming to the point, Visual Edit exists to be used; if me using it to add citations is upsetting you so much, then I will abstain from using it in that article. Cheers.

 * I'd like to clarify, although this is probably further off-topic: I wasn't "attacking" you; if anything, I was criticising your edits as the maintenance after your edits was becoming tedious. Criticising somebody's edits is not a personal attack. Also, as I am talking to you directly on your talk page, that is not passive aggression. This is a common thing editors say—"you're really being passive aggressive in that message". If somebody is expressing their frustration to you, then they are not being passive aggressive, as passive aggression involves non-direct communication (hence the "passive"). If anything, it would be just "aggression", but I was just expressing frustration. I might understand the use of the term if I had limited my involvement to snarky edit summaries, but I have communicated directly to you. Anyway, I hope you understand I'm not trying to be personal here. Thanks.  Ss  112   13:32, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Hey Ron. "Epiphany Music" is a copyright holder for her recordings, not a label. Because it doesn't have its logo notably on physical release of her recent album The Storm Before the Calm. -⁠-183.171.123.85 (talk) 15:39, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I added the comment on Talk:The_Storm_Before_the_Calm. Share your thoughts regarding the album if you wish to. 113.210.92.17 (talk) 06:43, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
