Tiktok
Hank has become a big player on TikTok with over 3 million followers and hundreds of millions of views. A whole new generation has gotten familiar with his work. I think this is notable enough to be mentioned on the page. He has also more and more embraced the role as a "tiktoker".

TikTok Revenue
Just a note that "a sum comprised of an estimated $700 from 20,000,000 TikTok views in a month as of August 2020, averaging to about 3.5 cents per 1,000 views" as stated in the article is definitely outdated info, as over $35,000 in less than a year as more recently stated (see article ref. 125) would be at least a few thousand per month. All I found was the TikTok (again, ref. 125) stating "my TikTok has gotten bigger since then", so if someone knows of more detailed recent figures that might be helpful. Otherwise, I'd suggest taking out this entire piece of info or boiling it down to "3.5 cents per 1,000 views", which I don't see any reason to believe has changed (?). Disturbnce (talk)

Look, I know that Hank Green gets up to a lot of stuff, but not everything he touches is important enough to go on his personal Wikipedia page. We should really discuss how long we want this article to be, and how it could be improved. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 02:02, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- I agree a lot of the sections need better sources, but I'm not sure the length of the article is something that should be a concern at the moment. There are plenty of BLPs that are significantly longer. We want a thorough article of Green, and if he does a lot of projects, the article should reflect. --Cerebral726 (talk) 12:01, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
- In regards to Cereal Time, I believe the sources are plenty strong for the article. The information is uncontroversial and the articles are well written and include quotes from the relevant people. --Cerebral726 (talk) 12:23, 3 September 2021 (UTC)
