Twattery

There should be a section to list his twatish behaviour such as spitting on fans, hypocritically releasing a song about a self-absorbed person (Love Yourself), getting pissy at a Japanese airport because he was expecting more fans to greet him, etc. 2607:FEA8:4DA2:3400:1106:4EA8:A798:7CC5 (talk) 08:53, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Request for comment

Should this article retain an image of Justin Bieber from 2015 or should we update it to a 2022 image? (see both images) Nythar (💬-🎃) 07:23, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

  • Support 2022 image - Pinging both C.Fred and EthanRossie2000 who participated in the discussion above this RfC. To explain: Image A represents Bieber at the age of 21 and image B represents him at 28. Now, the reason this was reverted is because Beemer03 objects to the latter on the basis of "basic human decency" which is contrary to WP:NOTCENSORED which states "Wikipedia may contain content that some readers consider objectionable or offensive‍—‌even exceedingly so." Image B is neither exceedingly objectionable nor offensive. The image is simply of him performing without a shirt on -- nothing wrong with that. There are many articles with images like this. I think that a 7-year-old image doesn't represent the subject well enough and there's no good reason to not change it to image B; we regularly update articles to include newer images. Also, his facial expression in the newer image seems to me to be more favorable since it portrays him in a more lively mood. Nythar (💬-🎃) 07:49, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

  • Option A – Go with the 2015 image since the focus is on the individual's face, and the viewer's attention is not distracted by the individual being shirtless and covered in tattoos, which is not the common way, which the individual is seen in the media. --Guest2625 (talk) 11:59, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
  • Option A – I agree a topless image looking like finger up the nose is not a reputable image. It's not representative of the person and WEIGHT of coverage of him, so does not seem suitable per MOS:LEADIMAGE and visually is not appealing as a way to start the article verging on MOS:SHOCK. I do not see anything better than option A in the commons, most of the others are when he was really young and the option A image at least looks somewhat recent, so it seems the best available choice. Cheers Markbassett (talk) 06:52, 1 December 2022 (UTC)
  • 2022 Image - Although I agree that the second image is a bit cheeky, it shows Bieber as he is now, and it's not so obscene after all. Alternatively, we could choose a third picture that would be from 2022, and where he would wear a shirt. Iraniangal777 (talk) 08:51, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

New infobox image?

On 29 September, EthanRossie2000 changed the infobox image to a 2022 image of Bieber performing. Beemer03 reverted the change, stating "A topless image is not a respectable choice for a biographical page" in their edit summary. The image has ping-ponged back and forth over the past few weeks, so I'm looking for broader community consensus.

  • Is the old image sufficiently representative of Bieber?
  • Is the new image preferable as more representative of his current appearance?
  • Should we be concerned about how "respectable" the image is?
  • Should we specifically not be concerned about how "respectable" the image is, per WP:NOTCENSORED?

C.Fred (talk) 12:04, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

I feel that it's important to note the addition of tattoos upon his chest in the time since he was basically a child performer. These are facts that need to be documented. Gallomimia (talk) 16:36, 14 March 2023 (UTC)

He did choose to perform without a shirt on, so I don't see why it would be disrespectful. If it was an image of him taken on perhaps a beach, then I'd be more inclined to agree with such a statement. But it isn't. EthanRossie2000 12:09, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

Beemer03 shouldn't have removed the new image for that reason. Take a look at this comment they made on their talk page, citing "basic human decency" -- which is a personal thing and not a guideline. This is the best image we have and there's nothing wrong with it. Nythar (💬-🎃) 16:37, 31 October 2022 (UTC)

I reverted the image back to the original for two reasons; one, I felt that I should keep the implications in mind and two, there was no consensus reached at the time. Countless images have been taken of Bieber over the years and I think that there are better ones to use, but that is just my opinion. I apologise if it seemed like a "personal thing". -Beemer03 (talk) 12:27, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
Beemer03, unfortunately we don't seem to have enough images of him on commons. Is there a better image we can upload? — Nythar (💬-🎃) 20:13, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
I added a new image, I think we definitely need a new image NYMan6 (talk) 20:15, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
A consensus has not been reached yet. Until it does, the image cannot be changed. Beemer03 (talk) 06:14, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
Beemer03, "Until it does, the image cannot be changed" <-- this is incorrect. However, if someone objects, then I might start an RfC. Do you still object to the image? — Nythar (💬-🎃) 07:07, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

My understanding is that in the absence of collective consent, the pre-existing image should be in place. I am happy to discuss and for us to collectively decide an outcome. My pov is that the images in Bieber’s Wikimedia page, subcategory “Justin Bieber by year” in 2022, don’t seem to be ideal representations of Bieber. Maybe some more images can be added? Beemer03 (talk) 14:44, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I pixelated the photo in December 2022. Now the photo could be representative because of it. Matysek2000 (talk) 18:56, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

Rumors of Death

I hate to be the one who brings up the elephant in the room, but I'm hearing a lot of rumors that this person has died. After some investigating, it seems none of them are reputable sources. A duckduckgo search brings only twitter and instagram accounts, the artists actual website, and this page. Can anyone find some info for or against this rumor?
