has been edit warring at If You're Reading This It's Too Late against consensus and against sourced information, adding original research to back his claims that this music release is a studio album instead of a mixtape, which is backed by secondary sources as well as the artist. User has been warned to stop this behavior. Immediately after a final warning on their talk page, comes along and reverts me on that article, followed immediately by another edit by SmithN41V and further edits from the IP.

This meets "Circumventing policies or sanctions", "Contributing to the same page or discussion with multiple accounts", and "Editing logged out to mislead" as described at WP:ILLEGIT. This is on top of a refusal to abide by verifiability policies and willful ignorance of talk page consensus. Chase (talk &#124; contributions) 20:41, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

 * At this point, the editing from the IP has stopped and the user hasn't made any further edits to the article. I don't think a block is necessary right now and we can consider this to be a warning for any future instances. Mike V • Talk 01:03, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

While under a warning for edit warring re the genres, master account suggests removing one well-sourced genre on the talk page (the subject of the dispute). Shortly after, the IP arrives to remove the "pop" genre and add the desired "R&B" genre, citing the source for "pop". Sum mer PhD v2.0 00:00, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Note the edit-warring warning was removed and immediately replaced with a similarly sized welcome notice from the editor to themself. - Sum mer PhD v2.0 00:02, 12 July 2016 (UTC)
