about the removal of the information about
Fantano's alleged threat to sue; it is probably important to mention it in order to understand why the company didn't just refuse to pay him: "Fantano demanded that Activision either immediately pay him or be prepared to defend a lawsuit. As a result, Activision had no choice but to seek declaratory relief from this Court." (Activision as cited by

how Lil B commonly parodies and satirizes hip-hop, rap, the music industry, and music fans. Would it be more appropriate to give greater context into the review itself, saying something along the lines of "This review is not reflective of
Fantano's true feelings, but instead a commentary and example of the very controversial attitude that Lil B takes with his music."?
1399:, what you thought I objecting to is correct--"Lawyers stated..." sounds as though neutral attorneys are speaking to the issue in their personal capacity, which is not what happened. "The complaint alleges..." is a more accurate framing. Even then, the wording of the rest of the sentences needs to be carefully written so as to not violate our BLP policies (see

I'm not sure that there's a real difference between requesting damages and threatening a lawsuit, as they sort of go hand in hand (although I'm also a lawyer, so maybe that's just the way I read it). I've added your suggested sentence and rewritten the passage a little bit, let me know what you think.
1539:
However, IGIH is slightly different. Fantano has directly stated that the 0 that he gave "isn't even how I feel completely. it's just a lesson in controversy." This is a
Youtube comment he left underneath the original video (which I'm not too sure how to cite). Similarly, his review of IGIH addresses

source) how
Activision argues that the use of the audio doesn't imply any sponsorship from Fantano. We could say "The complaint alleges that he made the audio available on TikTok's library and its use did not mislead consumers about any affiliation between Activision and Fantano." I am still doubtful
1430:
Thank you. I felt like multiple sources pointed out their use of the word "scheme", but I now understand it sounds unnecessarily defamatory. I'd say that the part of the sentence about the alleged legal threats to selective users is slightly redundant from the rest of the paragraph. Still, I think it
1454:
That first proposed sentence certainly looks good to me. Regarding the alleged threat to sue, at present it's purely based on the allegations in the complaint, right? So at minimum, we probably should not say that in wikivoice: "Activision claimed
Fantano threatened to sue for damages..." etc etc.
1379:
Could you specify how the paragraph implies that the complaint's statements are neutral facts? I thought I was being clear in the sentence about
Fantano's (alleged) threat because of the "According to Activision" at the start. The sentence you removed did mention that the argument was simply being

Hello, my name is
Inspectorative and I am a new editor on Knowledge. Recently I had made some changes to this article, adding Lil B's album I'm Gay (I'm Happy), or IGIH, and Planningtorock's album All Love's Legal to his list of 0s. At the time, I did not know that the review of Planningtorock's

Therefore, my question is Should his review of IGIH remain on this page? If so, would it be proper to give greater contextual information via a side note, or side note adjacent technique, or is it not necessary? I feel this is important since
Fantano's opinion is highly respected. I will gladly
