As long as you don't add something twice, or remove it twice, you won't be edit warring.

Should we summon Omega or let the mods take care of them?

Michael Katsuro noted, but I'm worried about it getting changed again if I revert the edits back.

I'll do it if I can. I won't cause an edit war.

^^ We'll cross that bridge when we get to it. For now, let's just revert what needs revertin'.

Apologies for the bump, but I was just scrolling through the wiki and remembered their name. They made an edit to Music.Overshadowed By Controversy adding Youtube links to MJ's entry, which I'm not sure is allowed.

^ And changing "his devoted fandom" to "his devoted fandom who question the validity of the accusations" which wouldn't be as questionable if this wasn't a pattern of behavior.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Some of it is valid, like the vitiligo stuff, but the rest, especially the links, is definitely biased. Should I revert it?

After a discussion with the Overshadowed By Controversy cleanup thread I've changed the entry to a more neutral one.

Apologies for the bump, but did this ever get resolved? Because it seems like Omega 3421 was still doing this as late as September (https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/article_history.php?article=Main.UnderminedByReality#edit30629179).

Took a note, but I don't think we have enough here for any other action.
