List of Vsauce videos

[edit]

So I made this list of the last 300 videos on the Vsauce YouTube channel (Vsauce, not Vsauce2 or 3) hosted by Michael Stevens. It has some unnecessary &/or unnotable old videos which can be cut out but then the numbers will be shifted. It also needs converting dates. I didn't provide any sources yet so feel free to add them directly or in a {{refideas}} template or something like that. So I put this here temporarily until it is ready for mainspace. I posted the generating Javascript code on pastebin here. (It stores the final code in the variable "op") I also don't like the idea of posting text like "m͏̺͓̲̥̪í͇͔̠ś̷͎̹̲̻̻̘̝t̞̖͍͚̤k̥̞à̸͕̮͍͉̹̰͚̰ẹ̶̢̪s͏̨͈̙̹̜͚̲ ̛̬͓͟" on Wikipedia. You can say this is OR, but there is already a list like this on the CGP Grey article, albeit with sources. Wumbolo (talk) 15:41, 23 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 25 March 2018

[edit]

i would like to add the following: On March 24 2018, Michael Steven announced on the platform YouTube that he was the owner of the channel named HowToBasic. This came at an complete shock, but was to be expected. HowToBasic is an YouTube channel targeted at the HTD (How To Do) Category on YouTube and has over 10 million subscribers. Michael Steven never showed his face on the channel to keep himself anonymous, but was recently exposed. He didn't have a choice in the matter, so he made an video (named Face Reveal) clarify the whole situation while keeping his comedic attitude. Hassab Abban (talk) 19:20, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated section on Brain Candy Live

[edit]

The section states "A second United States tour is scheduled for March–May 2018." It is long past that date, so that sentence should be removed. Are there any sources stating that Brain Candy Live isn't coming back? Because if so, that may also be good to add. If not, it should probably be noted when the last show was, and note that no new information about the future of it has been released. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sebastian Hudak (talk • contribs) 01:21, 26 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 27 June 2024

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Rough consensus against making Michael Stevens the primary topic, but consensus to change their disambiguation. (closed by non-admin page mover) BilledMammal (talk) 18:44, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

– Probably the primary topic. Pageviews analysis shows that the article is significantly more popular than the others listed in the disambiguation (and the second-most common includes a middle name). — Vigilant Cosmic Penguin 🐧 (talk | contribs) 17:16, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
