A Talk About R&B
When you took off Post-Disco from the R&B template, you left Soul music in. I assume you meant you approved it being there, but another user has recently reverted it. Is it okay if I put it back? 47.36.25.163 (talk) 23:43, 14 July 2022 (UTC)
- Yes, the reason "unsupported" seems strange and unclear. I think it's right to put subgroups of contemporary rnb, soul, funk, and other direct subgenres in the template. But I don't like that there were both genres and subgenres in the table. As these are equal. I'd rather leave it the way I edited it + added funk column. unless the reason for that removal was the presence of separate templates for soul (for cont rnb it seems there is no such thing).

- Currently it is listed in categories in Category:Soul music genres which is under Category:Rhythm and blues music genres. But the articles themselves describe relation between funk and soul close to the same as with soul and rnb - something in between a sub-genre and a derivative. So it would be more appropriate to say that funk is a subgenre of R&B and derived from soul, rather than it's subgenre of soul. Solidest (talk) 14:59, 15 July 2022 (UTC)

I Need Help
A while ago (on a different IP address, which has since been replaced by this one), I made some changes to the R&B template that you approved. But guess what? Not only did Binksternet undo my edits, but I was also blocked for "disruptive editing". (The reason why I waited until today to tell you all this is because I didn't want to risk being blocked for block evasion.) Did you ever try and talk with Binksternet and tell them that you approved my edits? 24.181.38.38 (talk) 00:05, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
- Why don't you register and describe your position on the discussion page? Registered active users are more trustworthy than IP users. I personally don't want to get into another argument in which I don't have much knowledge and which is outside of my field of interest. Solidest (talk) 09:52, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
