Collective nouns
Re: your edit at Skunk Anansie:
"IT is A group of people, so SINGULAR. A TENDENCY to drop grammatical number is NO rule and just BAD language"
NOT true in British English, which this article correctly uses. Collective nouns referring to a group use verb "are" in British English. (Since you repeated the edit with only the edit summary "Jeez..." I can't determine whether you understand this or not.) Please see WP:ENGVAR. General Ization 19:27, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Robvanvee. An edit that you recently made to Red Hot Chili Peppers seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Robvanvee 18:35, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
Collective nouns for bands
Please revert your mass changes to band articles that use "are" for bands. This is correct in British English, which these articles are written in. See WP:ENGVAR. I see you have been told about this before. Popcornfud (talk) 13:51, 24 March 2020 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to use disruptive, inappropriate or hard-to-read formatting, as you did at The Police, you may be blocked from editing. There is a Misplaced Pages Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. You have been asked twice above and now me for the 3rd time, stop changing were to was and/or visa versa.
