[WikiEN-l] empty album pages, years in MTV and KROQ, Baha Men...

Sun Feb 16 20:04:22 UTC 2003

I just banned an anonymous user who had created many
of the track-listing only album pages, future-releases
on 2003 in music, plus list of years in KROQ, a
fact-free article on the Baha Men and, most recently,
list of years in MTV and related pages.  See User
talk:64.175.250.205 for the sordid details of the MTV
stuff, which was what made me finally do it.

I hesitated because he has entered true and relevant
information, it just takes me three times as long to
fix it than it took him to write it.  Plus, the Baha
Men thing scared me, because I would never have
bothered to check the facts if somebody hadn't pointed
out that the article said they formed in 1987 and 1988
-- a quick trip to allmusic shows they released their
debut in 1979, and that many of the other facts were
simply wrong as well.

Maybe the ban should be lifted in a day or two, as he
has at least discovered talk pages.  Anyway, I just
wanted to make a note here on the mailing list since
I'm normally opposed to banning users who have made
valuable edits in the past.
