Sir what are you doing
Whilst I was in the process of adding a source for "sped-up" (which is a New York Times article) you reverted my edits. Here is the source: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/02/arts/music/tiktok-sped-up-remixes-nightcore.html. I would also like to notice that "sped-up" was already mentioned in the article before me, but without a source (see the last sentence in it, about the "non-descript term 'sped-up'". 178.121.12.167 (talk) 21:56, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe (just maybe) the better term would be "sped-up remix" or "sped-up song", but in TikTok and on Youtube they are mostly labeled simply as "sped-up" 178.121.12.167 (talk) 22:01, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- There are actually other reliable sources (I've counted around a dozen already) which variously call it "sped-up music", "sped-up remix" and the like. It seems to me that only a few of them go in depth of investigating its history though, focusing more on how big labels try to monetize it 178.121.12.167 (talk) 22:05, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- It didn't have a source when I saw it, and I had never heard anyone refer to the genre as a whole as just "sped-up", so I just reverted, not knowing you were still working on it. I won't revert it again, though, if you've got a proper source. Have a nice day, sorry for the trouble! ^^ mir 22:10, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- Oh not at all thanks for answering. But now I wonder how should it be put into words properly. I will edit it again rn and if you re-word it better later (if you wish to), I'd appreacite that 178.121.12.167 (talk) 22:17, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

The good way to mention it in the lede would probably be: Nightcore (also known by the descriptive term sped-up) is a style of...". What do you think? 178.121.12.167 (talk) 22:14, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
