Notability

[edit]

I have redirected "Welcome to the Internet" to Bo Burnham: Inside because it is totally unreferenced. We need references to show two things, verifiability and notability. In this case, it would take a lot of sources specifically about just this song and not about the special as a whole to show that we needed a standalone page and couldn't cover all this information in the main page, Bo Burnham: Inside. If you have any questions, you can ask me on my talk page. Thanks! — Bilorv (talk) 11:05, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Kris Collins requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

A tag has been placed on Inside (the songs) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

Infoboxes

[edit]

Per Arbcom, please do not add infoboxes to existing articles without first obtaining a WP:CONSENSUS to do so. The Manual of Style says: "Whether to include an infobox ... is determined through discussion and consensus among the editors at each individual article." While sports and politician bios can benefit from infoboxes, most articles in liberal arts fields, as here, do not. See arbitration report: "Infoboxes may be particularly unsuited to liberal arts fields when they repeat information already available in the lead section of the article, are misleading or oversimplify the topic for the reader". Disadvantages of infoboxes: (1) The box would emphasize unimportant factoids stripped of context and lacking nuance, in competition with the WP:LEAD section, which emphasizes and contextualizes the most important facts. (2) Since the most important points in the article are already discussed in the Lead, or adequately discussed in the body of the article, the box would be redundant. (3) It would take up valuable space at the top of the article and hamper the layout and impact of the Lead. (4) Frequent errors creep into infoboxes, as updates are made to the articles but not reflected in the redundant info in the box, and they tend to draw vandalism, fancruft and repeated arguments among editors about what to include. (5) The boilerplate infobox templates create a block of code at the top of the edit screen that discourages new editors from editing the article. (6) It would discourage readers from reading the text of the article. (7) IBs distract editors from focusing on the content of the article. Instead of improving the article, they spend time working on this repetitive feature and its coding and formatting. See also WP:DISINFOBOX. -- Ssilvers (talk) 06:49, 17 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"& comedian".

[edit]

Can you please not add the words "& comedian" to the lede in Drew Gooden (YouTuber). I have reverted you multiple times because I thought that this has already been settled in the move discussion. If you have a good reason to include the phrase, please discuss it on the talk page first. — VORTEX3427 (Talk!) 22:33, 14 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
