Unsure about this one myself, but it might work out as a general summary of propaganda as opposed to propaganda, which covers the concept rather than its usage. J947edits 23:12, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

  1. Per Piotrus. Propaganda in the US has never been very strong, so adding this would be US-centric. feminist🇭🇰🇺🇦 (talk) 02:37, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

  1. Hmmm. I am not sure it is vital. Propaganda in the US has never been very strong; sure, there were war peroods etc. but compared to totalitarian countries, it was not a very serious phenomena. I feel that would likely be US centric. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:32, 20 January 2024 (UTC)

US university removals, batch 1

As I said above in #Add education concepts, I think we should remove many US universities we currently list. Many of the US universities we list are known more for athletics than academics, but in that case we should compare their significance to sports teams ... and we only list 56 sports teams worldwide compared to 92 universities just from America. None of the universities I nominate below are members of the Association of American Universities (a rough indicator of research intensity and academic prestige), are middling in academics-based university rankings, and don't otherwise have stand-out features (history, religious affiliation, subject, demographic makeup, etc.).

  1. Swap with Indiana University Bloomington  5, which is plausibly VA5 due to its reasonably high national and international rankings and AAU membership. It's at least a tier above the universities I'm proposing to remove this round, imo. feminist🚰 (talk) 05:33, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

  1. Not a great research school but has been an important cultural phenomenon and household name in the United States thanks to their success in American football. Besides Notre Dame Fighting Irish football  5 which is already listed, this is the school associated with American college football. Probably not well-known outside the United States but it is known well enough within the United States to warrant inclusion. Aurangzebra (talk) 19:09, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
    As a side note, I'm not convinced we need both University of Notre Dame  5 and Notre Dame Fighting Irish football  5. I feel like the parent article sufficiently covers the football team. Maybe this is another thing we can remove (might be good since sports teams is still over quota as well)? Aurangzebra (talk) 19:14, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
    Weirdly, I feel like the opposite is true of Alabama, where the football team is more influential than the school. Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 20:40, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
    Yea I think I'd be fine with a swap for the football team for Alabama. Aurangzebra (talk) 21:55, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Consider myself neutral for this. Seems like it's at least as significant as some of the sports teams we currently list. feminist🚰 (talk) 12:32, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

  • I would support a swap with the football team, but not absolute removal. The crimson tide is very iconic to college football, and Alabama even has a coach on the VA5 list. QuicoleJR (talk) 15:05, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Remove magazines

As I said previously, I think we have way too many magazines (89 articles), considering that magazines as a medium of publication are in quick decline due to the rise of alternative forms of media, mostly over the internet. We can cut some newspapers too, another medium of publication which is in quick decline. The nominations below are all among the least-viewed articles on magazines last year.

  • Iron Man was added to the Library of Congress in 2022 and is the film that kicked off the MCU, which has become the biggest box office franchise and one of the biggest franchises in the world. The MCU would not have had the same success if Iron Man flopped and wasn't as well received when it released, especially because the character of Iron Man wasn't nearly as popular at the time compared to characters like Spider-Man and the X-Men which also had films releasing around that time.
  • Avengers: Endgame was a cultural phenomenon when it released with it having 11 years and 21 movies of buildup, while coming off of a cliffhanger ending in Avengers: Infinity War the previous year. It capped off the MCU's first Saga and concluded the stories of multiple characters who had been with the MCU since the early years. The film made over US$1.2 billion in just its opening weekend at the box office, crushing the previous record, and ended up with nearly US$2.8 billion, becoming the highest grossing film at the box office (not accounting for inflation) at the time before Avatar reclaimed the crown later with a theatrical re-release. Endgame sits in second place still as of today.

    User:The Blue Rider, per the article, it has been popular since the time of the Marx Brothers, so lets call it 100 years at least, which I think makes short-term popularity incorrect.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:51, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
    No the article doesn't say anything like that, instead, it was used by the Marx Brothers once but that doesn't make it popular. The Blue Rider 23:46, 16 January 2024 (UTC)

    User:The Blue Rider, Where the article states "It has become a cliché for Valentine's Day" and all of the pop culture use examples content of the article are from individuals (Roger Miller, Chico Marx and Benny Hill) who all died over 30 years ago, I would interpret that to mean that the it became cliche for Valentine's Day in the 20th century.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 15:59, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
    It was used a couple of times throughout its existence but a far cry from being popular, only recently it has became wildly used; there are so many more influential poems or poets that we could list instead. The Blue Rider 16:18, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
    User:The Blue Rider, Nothing in the article supports that statement about (recently). What is your support for recently (in the article)? It was very popular when I was younger (40ish years ago), which is supported by examples from people who have died over 30 years ago. What do you mean by recently? I don't think there are many poems as influential as this one.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 17:55, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

Both historical and dialectical materialism have a foundational role in shaping Marxist theory.

The article on Labour Day seems to be about a generic term for various different days around the world when workers are celebrated, often informally. But International Workers' Day is about a specific day that the workers of the world themselves set and celebrate as their own. It has a unique history and cultural significance, rather than just being a broad umbrella term. Labour Day is International Workers' Day in most countries, with only a spattering of exceptions, mostly in the anglosphere. The article for "Labour Day" has only 9 interwikis; International Workers' Day has 112! The article for Labour Day gets 566 page views per day, while the article for International Workers' Day averages 692 pageviews per day. --Grnrchst (talk) 23:53, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Eton is an institution with a long history. Notably, it has been the secondary school of choice for much of Britain's elite.

Magazines in general needs significant reduction of American/Anglophone bias, and Stern is much more influential in Germany than Mother Jones is in the US (and I would argue by extension, worldwide as a larger part of German media). Stern had much more of an important role as an investigative outlet in the late 20th century, in spite of its decline in recent years, whereas Mother Jones more than anything seems to stand out most for betraying the values it was founded on.

Hmm right, these two are such a household name in the English language that I instinctively thought of them as Anglophone. Perhaps a better question would be: is Stern the most important magazine from non-Anglophone Europe which we don't currently list? feminist🩸 (talk) 09:26, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
My initial thought that there's possibly Charlie Hebdo, although that's one with quite a different subject matter and I'm somewhat skeptical that its international renown wasn't just inflated by the shooting which rather distorts things while trying to figure out how vital the magazine itself is.
I did look for some other important European magazines and found L'Espresso which I had heard of before but am not really that familiar with, which is similar to Stern but Italian, although even proportionate to Germany's higher population, L'Espresso's circulation count is much lower, so Stern still appears to surpass it. L'Espresso may still pass as vital but Stern seems like a much-more clear-cut case imo. Iostn (talk) 12:38, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

Swap: Remove Lai fun, add Char siu  5

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.



Lai fun is very obscure (20 daily views last year) and is more a variety of noodle than a main dish. There are plenty of more important types of food to list from South China. Char siu, for example, is often served with lai fun, but it's a much more common dish (394 daily views) with more global reach and different regional varieties – just generally a lot more to write about.

  1. Meh. Amex had a 4.61% worldwide market share by payment volume in 2022, compared to 38.73% for Visa and 24% for Mastercard. While American Express credit cards are accepted at 99% of U.S. merchants that accept credit cards (Costco being the notable exception), they are much less accepted in Europe and Asia. While Amex is probably more important than at least some of the banks we list at this level, adding it feels America-centric. Would probably support if we weren't over quota in this section. feminist🇭🇰🇺🇦 (talk) 16:18, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

I think this is more of a social science (psychology) topic than a pure science one, but it should be listed somewhere.

Who does not feel stressed? Not sure if this should be placed in Society (Psychology) or Health.

Taipei People: 37th least viewed VA5/Arts article according to the bottom 10% list I've posted earlier. ~12 daily pageviews, 1 interwiki. Although praised in the Receptions section, I think in this case the obscurity outweighs the acclaim (and the high opinions are cited only to two people anyway). Moreover, we already list some other Chinese 20th century fiction such as Rickshaw Boy  5, Diary of a Madman (Lu Xun)  5, Fortress Besieged  5 and Red Sorghum (novel)  5, all of which get more pageviews.

The Phantom of the Opera: One of the most famous works of Gothic fiction, ~1000 daily pageviews, 39 interwikis, so may adaptations the list has its own page. Used to be on the vital articles list but was somewhat dubiously removed during VA5's WP:BRD phase.

    Heh, after the resistance this proposal got I went through the most-viewed 20th-century Chinese literature articles and chose that as a potential new swap-in candidate in case this fails.--LaukkuTheGreit (TalkContribs) 17:15, 25 January 2024 (UTC)

  1. Phantom of the Opera (book) is only notable because of Phantom of the Opera (musical) which is already listed at VA4. Plenty of famous books, movies, musicals, operas etc. are adapted from less famous pieces of media. I don't think just being the basis for a much more famous adaptation is worthy of inclusion here (unless the book is somehow notable in its own right in a way that I missed).

    There are many more adaptations than just the musical, many predating it. The 1925 silent film is also rather famous in its own right, being one of the most notable appearances of Lon Chaney  5.--LaukkuTheGreit (TalkContribs) 19:53, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
  2. Agree with Aurangzebra. Also, per sysbias, I'd consider a swap for a non-Western work (preferably Chinese), but removing a Chinese work to add a Western one, one that already has a musical version in Vital, does not seem like a good idea. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 01:17, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Apparently the novel's fame was downplayed by the musical's creators, which might be where Aurangzebra's attitude comes from. There is already some precedent in listing multiple iterations of a work with e.g. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz  5 & The Wizard of Oz (1939 film), and my DVD edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica has two separate Phantom-related entries (oddly enough for the 1925 and 1962 films, not the novel or musical). Besides, even the 1937 Phantom-inspired Chinese film gets more views than Taipei People.--LaukkuTheGreit (TalkContribs) 09:49, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
