I believe Blackpink’s seoul date of October 15th and 16th in KSPO Dome, Seoul had a 40,000 attendance. It was already confirmed by them that it was 40,000 all together. Both dates were sold out with a 5,000 increase in capacity on both. KSPO Dome has a capacity of 15k so it makes sense that if each date was sold out with a 5k capacity increase on both that It would be a total attendance of 40,000. Please review this! 2601:C2:200:6080:8518:4F7:348B:B9BF (talk) 11:30, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, This is to request you an edit on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born_Pink_World_Tour page which has misleading information. BLACKPINK - BORN PINK WORLD TOUR's first two shows on 15th and 16th October 2022 at KSPO Dome drew 20,000 (20k) audiences each. All two shows had 40,000 (40k) attendance altogether. Refer to this link for confirmation: https://n.news.naver.com/entertain/ranking/article/009/0005030927 / (TRANS) https://twitter.com/BLACKPINK_BBU/status/1581835923549220864 The current Wikipedia page shows that all two shows held on the above dates had only 20,000 audiences. Please edit the details on the page to prevent the public from leading to misinformation.

Thank you. 10.18.2022 04.08dm (talk) 16:05, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

 Not done, the listed source on the article clearly states 10k each. 20k for each show is simply impossible given that the capacity for BP's seating plan (end stage) at the venue was only 10-12k. (Btw, Twitter is far from a reliable source.)ɴᴋᴏɴ21 ❯❯❯ talk 16:24, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

City when referring to Philippine Arena location

I have reverted twice changes from Bocaue to Bulacan in referring to which "city" Philippine Arena is at. Bulacan is a province, of which Bocaue is one of its municipalities. Bocaue is not a "city", but in this context, "City" refers to "settlement" and not whether or not local authorities label it as such; even if it is not a "city", using "Bulacan" as a "city" is flat out wrong because it is not a city either. It's akin to putting to putting "Victoria" in place of "Melbourne", or "Texas" instead of "Dallas". Howard the Duck (talk) 11:00, 11 April 2023 (UTC)

Change paradise, nv to Las Vegas, NV. Nobody calls it paradise and it also says Las Vegas on there poster 68.96.201.59 (talk) 13:59, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. Location is based on whatever is indicated on Allegiant Stadium's article. A quick Wikipedia searching also shows that Allegiant Stadium is also listed on Paradise, Nevada article and mentioned "in Paradise" in Las Vegas article. Also noting that Las Vegas is mentioned in the footnote. Permalink are intentionally used here to indicate the links as of this comment are the latest revision. Hence any changes thereafter on the respective articles can be considered as point pushing. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 14:13, 21 April 2023 (UTC)

Tour Location Dates

The tour locations for Europe and Malaysia are not officially confirmed- I'm not sure who put them there, as I couldn't find them anywhere after scouring the internet for hours. The source for the Malaysia tour location is inaccurate- the article provides no sources or proof that the Malaysia part of the tour is going to occur there. Shouldn't they be removed? I tried to remove them but IDK how the formatting works. 70.123.54.223 (talk) 22:36, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

The person who wrote 90,000 in the Philippines need to write the amount of people on the second day like how can there be 90,000 altogether that’s not possible you need to write bot amounts not just one . And also other countries too you need to write out both amount of people who came on both days . Because it’s wrong they way there writing it . 109.79.81.126 (talk) 00:05, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Additionally, someone made a grave error in allowing the upcoming tour date in Las Vegas, Nevada at Allegiant Stadium calling it Paradise Las Vegas. Both major casino/hotels in Las Vegas called Luxor and Mandalay Bay are across Allegiant Stadium and they're both officially listed as being located in Las Vegas NV, not Paradise. . Don't overcomplicate/overthink matters. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Newb787 (talk • contribs) 08:24, 16 April 2023 (UTC)

While it is hardly a "grave error", Allegiant Stadium's official mailing address is indeed Las Vegas, Nevada, however the stadium itself is in Paradise, which is an unincorporated town (not a city) and is a census designated place, but receives US postal mail via the Las Vegas main post office, hence the use of Las Vegas as the mailing address. Most of the Las Vegas strip, the Las Vegas Airport and UNLV are all in Paradise, the city of Las Vegas is actually mostly downtown Vegas, not the Strip. Luxor and Mandalay Bay are in Paradise proper, as well, however Las Vegas is used for marketing purposes. Stating the location of the stadium as Paradise, NV is technically correct.

Born Pink Tour as the highest-grossing tour by a girl group

According to BBC News, the Spice Girls’ Spiceworld Tour in 1998 remains the highest-grossing girl group tour in history with an estimated attendance of 2.1 million. I believe, Born Pink World Tour will surpass it anytime soon. But let us not spread misinformation to readers and do a simple math.

The American leg for Spiceworld Tour in 1998 grossed more than $60 million (according to Rolling Stone). (Actually, it’s $62.8 million based on the data provided by Billboard magazine in 2008.) And it was attended by 718,033 people.

There are 56 missing and unreported dates. So, the tour’s official gross remains unknown. Thus, some people estimate that the Spiceworld Tour grossed $150–180 million, based on available data from Billboard and other reliable sources. That explains why BBC News proclaims it as the highest-grossing tour by a girl group in history.

The Born Pink Tour has yet to surpass Spice Girls’ record. However, some users here have already grabbed that title from Spiceworld Tour 1998, just because they have “reliable” sources.

In light to that, I would like to highlight that The Straits Times and The Korea Times have based their article from Touring Data on Twitter. Pages like Touring Data provide “concert data” to their readers. However, they have never disclosed its original source. And although Touring Data has a “website” (blogsite, actually) through Wordpress, it’s still unknown if they’re releasing official numbers. Because throughout music history, only Pollstar and Billboard release the official gross of concerts.

I believe, we should wait for Billboard or Pollstar to announce Born Pink Tour’s official numbers before we declare it as the highest-grossing girl group tour in this article. Kenquenito (talk) 17:39, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Born Pink 100 Million Grossed

I found a reliable source that claims Born Pink as the highest-grossing girl group tour of all-time with 100 million in sales and don’t mention Touring Data anywhere, Zoom TV Entertainment is a reliable source, many don’t know this but it is considered by the general public so WP trusts it as a third-party, in the article it doesn’t say anywhere that they got the information from Touring Data or other unreliable sources so maybe we can use it https://www.zoomtventertainment.com/korean/rs-820-crore-blackpinks-world-tour-revenue-breaks-massive-world-record-with-29-dates-still-remaining-korean-entertainment-kpop-news-article-100390502/amp Multimilkp (talk) 05:20, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Why is TouringData not considered a reliable source in this article?

The use of TouringData as a reliable source on Wikipedia varies across articles. This discussion aims to explore why TouringData is considered credible in some cases, such as the World's Hottest Tour, Music of the Spheres World Tour, +–=÷× Tour and Happier Than Ever, The World Tour, while being labeled unreliable in others, like the article in question.

Do you consider articles from websites that are not music-related, calculate attendance by multiplying the capacity of the concert venue obtained from Wikipedia by the number of concerts, as reliable sources, while not considering TouringData as reliable, even though other editors do? KamilSparky (talk) 22:01, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

@KamilSparky You should considering asking this question in larger context (basically not tied down to any articles and not why WP:OTHER exists) instead at WT:RSP (the main discussion thread for asking whether this or that source is considered as reliable) on whether TouringData as a source is considered as reliable for use in any form of articles on English Wikipedia despite it clearly falling WP:BLOGS in which per WP:RSP (Ctrl+F to search), Wordpress.com (which TD website URL evidently contains such) is considered as unreliable source. This would likely give you explicit answer if you can use TD wherever you like to regardless of whatever is stated at WP:RSP and WP:BLOGS.

If you only want to ask why it isn't allowed here, you can read this above on why, while there isn't any replies in that thread however simultaneously there is an edit war ongoing at that point of time (just check the article's revision history), and also per partial (full reply in the link) quote "I will agree ... that media using Touring Data as their source cannot be regarded as reliable - TD is a WordPress site that aggregates reports from other sources, including artist representatives. It may or may not be correct, but it's effectively original research. [They] would do well to remember this when the protection expires, and if they [referring to whoever is edit warring at that point of time] continue using those sources further action may be taken" by admin (Black Kite) here. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 05:41, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

Edit Request: Updating K-pop Touring Data on Wikipedia

Subject: Edit Request: Updating K-pop Touring Data on Wikipedia

Dear Wikipedia Editors,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request an edit to the K-pop Touring Data section on the Wikipedia page dedicated to K-pop. I have found a verified and reliable source, touringdata.com, that provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on K-pop tours.

Given the rapid growth and evolving nature of the K-pop industry, it is essential to maintain accurate and current data on K-pop tours. I believe that the inclusion of verified data from touringdata.com will greatly enhance the informational value of the K-pop page, enabling readers to stay informed about the most recent touring statistics.

The proposed edit will primarily focus on updating the following sections within the K-pop Touring Data on Wikipedia:

1. "Current and Upcoming Tours": I will add information about the ongoing and upcoming K-pop tours, along with the corresponding dates, venues, and participating artists/groups. This will give readers a comprehensive overview of the active tours in the industry.

2. "Past Tours": I will update the list of past K-pop tours to include any recent tours that have taken place since the last update. This will provide a complete historical record of K-pop touring, reflecting the most recent additions to the industry.

To ensure the accuracy and reliability of the data, I will source the information exclusively from touringdata.com, a well-regarded website specializing in concert and touring data. By utilizing their verified information, we can maintain a high level of credibility and ensure that the edits align with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

I am aware of Wikipedia's commitment to providing accurate and reliable information to its readers. Therefore, I will diligently adhere to the guidelines and citation practices set forth by Wikipedia, including proper attribution and citation formatting.

I kindly request the assistance of experienced Wikipedia editors to review and approve the proposed edits, ensuring that the K-pop Touring Data section remains up-to-date and informative. I am open to any suggestions or feedback from the editors to further improve the accuracy and quality of the information presented.

Thank you for considering my edit request. I look forward to contributing to the K-pop page on Wikipedia and providing valuable updates to the touring data section. Should you require any additional information or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me.

Sincerely,

Add coincidental note that Houston BP tour happened the same time as WS game

Hello. While Born Pink World Tour concert in Houston on October 29, 2022 happened at the same time as the World Series baseball game, which happened during Game 2 of the World Series that evening but at the different stadium Minute Maid Park, can I add an efn note by that date under "Tour dates" section? Like this:
{{efn-ua|Coincidentally, the Born Pink World Tour concert in Houston at the Toyota Center happened at the same time as the World Series baseball game between the Houston Astros and the Philadelphia Phillies, but at a different stadium Minute Maid Park across downtown.}}

Thanks. Let me know if it's okay to add that coincidental note in there, then I will add it there on this article. Source from ABC13 here, use CTRL+F and search 'blackpink'; you'll find the exact word there. --Allen ^{(talk / ctrb)} 02:22, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Born Pink Tour’s attendance

According to Blackpink’s official website, the Born Pink Tour comprises only 66 dates. This implies that their performances at Coachella and BST Hyde Park should not be included as part of the tour. And as per a YG Entertainment representative, the tour’s estimated attendance is approximately 1.8 million only. However, IF we include those two festivals, the girls INTERACTED with 2.11 million fans.

It’s no-brainer that YG aims to surpass or break the two million attendance mark set by the Spice Girls’ Spiceworld Tour in 1998. Clearly, they want to either beat or match this record to even promote the “biggest girl group” title for Blackpink, even if it leads to misinformation.

We are aware that YG often employs numerous “media plays” to boost its artists’ popularity, as demonstrated in 2014, when they pitted 2NE1 against Girls’ Generation, the biggest Korean girl group at that time. Kenquenito (talk) 07:59, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

@Kenquenito I'm confused, the number of shows is already listed as 66 in the infobox and the same count for tour date's table. Attendance in the lead, infobox, commercial performance, and tour date's table is also 1.8 million. As such, what exactly you wanted to change then? — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 08:05, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

I created this topic to avoid future confusions. Some editors keep changing the numbers as seen on the article’s Edit History. It’s possible that one of them is confused about the tour’s estimated attendance. Kenquenito (talk) 08:12, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
