Hello Bbb23,
I would argue that my edit was, in fact, constructive. If you were to look into the details of the changes I made, you would learn that that page currently doesn't exist as its own article, and redirects to a completely unrelated article. Removal of that irrelevant redirection is certainly constructive. Additionally, although I did not have the time to flesh out the page with many details, what I did write was true and grammatically correct, and I marked the page with the appropriate stub tag.
On a platform so heavily reliant on user contributions and participation, I am disappointed that you take such an unwelcoming tone towards new/beginning contributors like myself. :( Cgobat (talk) 23:53, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The redirect is not implausible, and your hijacking of the article into an unsourced stub is unacceptable. If you want to develop an article, do it in draft space using WP:AFC. If you have questions on how that works, ask them at the WP:Teahouse.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:07, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Sure, the redirect is as plausible/relevant as redirecting to pretty much any other musical artist—which is to say, not at all. What was the process for deeming the addition of the (unsourced) redirect acceptable in the first place?
Removing the page entirely and just having it be a red link would be more useful than it is in its current form. Cgobat (talk) 04:39, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
