editThanks for your work against the vandalism account Motorbreath420. I have now blocked the account. Unfortunately, though, when I was looking into the vandalism, I mistakenly thought you were vandalising too, so I blocked your account. I realised my mistake very soon, and unblocked, but I apologise for the mistake. JBW (talk) 18:28, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contribution(s). I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, while user talk pages permit a small degree of generalisation, other talk pages such as User talk:Adakiko are strictly for discussing improvements to their associated main pages, and many of them have special instructions on the top. They are not a general discussion forum about the article's topic or any other topic. If you have questions or ideas and are not sure where to post them, consider asking at the Teahouse. Thanks. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 19:45, 23 November 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, good thing you are here, SNUGGUMS. Firstly, what do you mean by "disruptive editing?" Why do you think your statement is correct? She never mentioned about her own birth year on social media. Hence, either year can be true. Bertlookslikebowler (talk) 17:52, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- Mariah has intentionally been ambiguous in a playful sort of way, but this undeniably shows that 1969 is correct, contrary to popular belief. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 17:56, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
SNUGGUMS, "ambiguous in a playful sort of way"... You actually expect me to believe that? You are saying this statement in a way that you are living with her everyday, which I bet you're not. And worse, you actually expect everyone to believe that. In a court of law, if you mention statements like that without any concrete evidence, do you expect the judge to believe your words??
- What I meant is she jokingly has claimed in interviews to have "anniversaries" instead of birthdays without giving an exact number. No, I don't live with her every day nor do I expect those convinced of 1970 to give up so easily on that year, but if that was accurate then there's no way a birth announcement for Mariah would've been printed in 1969. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 18:05, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
SNUGGUMS, to answer your question regarding the newspaper article, it may not be true as well. There could be various reasonings: i) The newspaper industry may be bribed to falsify that statement. ii) Yes, it was stated "Mariah Carey" and "Alfred Roy Carey" there, representing her and her father. However, what if it was a coincidence? The United States is a huge country with a population of more than 300 million people. Another "Alfred Roy Carey" could've given birth to another "Mariah Carey". iii) That picture could just be made up by any individual, making everyone believing that 1969 is the correct birth year. Considering these points, why do you think your edit of 1969 is worthy? Bertlookslikebowler (talk) 18:18, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
SNUGGUMS: Additionally, regardless which birth year is correct, I will persist on removing 1969 until she herself mentions it. I would just like to make it clear that as a huge fan of hers, it is very disturbing that I am likely believing in false information. Bertlookslikebowler (talk) 18:23, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
SNUGGUMS: And one more thing, previously you mentioned that "she jokingly has claimed..." I would like to challenge you here. Is this a fact or an opinion? If it is a fact, what evidence do you have to backup this "fact" and if it is an opinion, do you think you can use it in a debate or court of law? You are blatantly presenting information according to your feelings here, which is wrong.
