Guidelines about news/recentism
[edit]Should this really be on wiki? There's nothing but a Vice article, it's one of the thousands amateur writings one can found everywhere, how can this be considered encyclopedic? --Paguro 1234 (talk) 07:35, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
- We cover what reliable sources cover, see WP:N. As the references in the article indicate, this work has been covered by more reliable source than just "Vice", and is therefore sufficiently notable for an article. 11:19, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
- Let's wait a bit, the article might grow over time. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 13:10, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
- I understand, but still I fail to see how this could be encyclopedic. As of now it is nothing but a news story as millions of others, it looks like wikipedia barter his nature for some traffic. Let's see in a month or so if it really worthed an entry...--Paguro 1234 (talk) 17:24, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

This is akin to 4chan users coming up with fake memes and writing them on wiki. A guy who wrote a couple short stories and lacks identity? vote for deletion.
It may be a postings/story like a thousand others, but 999 don't get covered by the BBC News and The Guardian. --Gott (talk) 01:38, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Merge with Timeline of Reddit?
[edit]As another Wikipedian pointed out for my random adding of merge templates to Technical drawing and ISO 128 without discussion right away and reverting those edits, I don't want the same revert to happen here when I added the templates in April 2022 to the _9MOTHER9HORSE9EYES9 and Timeline of Reddit pages, so I'll start a discussion. --207.81.187.41 (talk) 18:50, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- Closing, given that no case has been made, there has been no support, and the case is far from obvious. See WP:MERGEPROP for what is needed to start a merge case. Klbrain (talk) 11:49, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
DISPLAYTITLE
[edit]@Redrose64: Where does it say that DISPLAYTITLE cannot add (or remove) characters
? The actual requirement (per WP:DISPLAYTITLE) is that the displayed title must still resolve to the true name of the page
, and since leading whitespace is ignored in titles and spaces and underscores are treated equivalently, that should work. _9MOTHER9HORSE9EYES9 does indeed resolve to this page, without going through a redirect, and you can see that the DISPLAYTITLE (which your edit left) isn't causing the article to be placed in Category:Pages with disallowed DISPLAYTITLE modifications, so it appears to be working as is. * Pppery * it has begun... 18:28, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
- The behaviour must have changed. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 19:40, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Must have changed from the documentation, or must have changed from what you remembered it did? * Pppery * it has begun... 14:35, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- I've been around for 14 years, lots of things no longer function in the way that I first becam familiar. Software changes are not always accompanied by matching changes to documentation. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:16, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- Can I conclude from this that you no longer have any objection to me removing the hatnote? * Pppery * it has begun... 23:23, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
- OK then. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:21, 26 August 2023 (UTC)

WP:NOTE
[edit]Redditor for 13 years, have never heard of this account or stories. Unsure why this exists (or is linked in Template:Reddit template).
Suspect that this account is hawking a book/movie deal ala Prufrock451 aka author of Rome Sweet Rome.
Invite other contribs to debate rationale for article deletion below. 2601:19C:4E00:74B8:858D:912A:479B:D1A6 (talk) 03:38, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Garnet Moss I've opposed and removed your proposed deletion template from the article. In addition to consensus clearly being against deleting this article at AfD, the very existence of that AfD discussion means that PROD is no longer an option here. Bsoyka (t • c • g) 07:16, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- My bad, I should've checked, was reflexive. But frankly this article was so immediately ridiculous to me that I'm surprised that this survived the process before. I'll respect the consensus reached, (even if I find it baffling that any fiction-writing forum account which gets some blog press should be considered notable,) but adding my voice to say that I would support deletion. I can think of a dozen more impactful fanfiction or creepypasta authors than this, and I wouldn't call them notable either. Garnet Moss (talk) 07:22, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
- @Garnet Moss: You're good, I get it. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the article either, but there's definitely something here in terms of notability consensus, so it at least wouldn't be an uncontroversial delete. Happy editing though! Bsoyka (t • c • g) 07:25, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
