Help me!
Please help me with... Hello, I see that wiki has incorrectly assigned Lady A to a group instead of Anita White. In the interests of justice and accuracy can you please keep the band name and put Lady A as the actual singer? I do not think anyone should be allowed to simply take someone else’s stage name. The page as it stands now is inaccurate and allowing a more well known entity to simply steal the intellectual property of a lesser known entity. Thanks ValerieGood (talk) 01:07, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hello! The move that renamed the article strikes you as being unjust. One of the more difficult parts of editing Wikipedia is that it is simply a summary of multiple independent sources that have editorial oversight. That means the encyclopedia more often perpetuates existing systemic biases from those. We do have a number of task forces working on it, but that work is in a broader view and moves gradually. For now, the reader needs the requisite skills and knowledge to critically read Wikipedia, as they would with any other source.
 * More specifically, the moves occurred by a community discussion at . Any changes to that will also require a discussion, and that discussion needs to be very obvious and very specific as to what has changed in the intervening time as to affect interpretation of policy. Otherwise, the discussion will likely uphold the last discussion's conclusion. Moving without discussion will probably earn you stern rebuke and unwanted scrutiny.
 * All in all: make sure you are familiar with the naming policies and policies on consensus. Then, decide whether this is the hill to die on. Wikipedia has no shortage of tasks with which your efforts may (or may not, who knows!) bear more fruit. Hope that helped, Rotideypoc41352 (talk · contribs) 01:48, 23 July 2020 (UTC)
