#Notability
then people just start undermining the notability guidelines because Have Lots Subscriber means way more than "verifiable and archived trustworthy secondary sources that people outside of twitter dot com know about" in the Modern Day get with the program what are you still living in Myspace Times

yea, i see people taking it in weirdly bad faith all the time to the point of bringing it up in any discussion of wikipedia and it's like. it didn't have sources. it did not meet notability guidelines. and now it does, and now it has an article. really not that hard to understand

unfortunately they haven't actually fixed this by way of fixing the underlying issues with their notability guidelines, so, it's basically a matter of When they'll pitch another weird fit like this, not a matter of If. though, we couldn't tell you with What quite yet.

multiple people have pinged us because BFDI finally got its wikipedia page, and all we're saying is we called that this is how it was gonna go down *2 years ago.* first time a tragedy, second time a farce, third time's the charm

...has it ever not been free?
What's the notability here?

I believe the early notability actually came from the man in the video, the singer Ray J. Which is amusing, considering he also gained fame through association with someone more famous: his sister is singer and actress Brandy.

Every other office building in northern Virginia is proudly emblazoned with the name of a defense contractor whose main notability in the general public is being in the "actively committing war crimes" section of BDS lists

Us: we have created a bold new age where the quickest road to notability or notoriety is to publish ideas that lots of people agree with, and made it possible to publish those ideas to the entire world with a $400 pocket box!!

Us *ten years later*: why does everyone believe pure insane drivel now

My sister drives a notability car. She herself is not disabled, but her daughter is. Two things:
1. They had to pay a considerable amount towards the cost. Like, more than the cost of a decent second hand car.
2. It's not a "blue three wheeler" because that wouldn't accommodate the wheelchair.
This is evil. Pure evil.

It is not easy to qualify for a Motability car. It is not free. People are not faking disability to get free cars.

The “notability criteria” are quite a thing. In music, if you’ve won any kind of award, you’re generally in. (Also helps if you’ve been on TV.)

Now there is a debate on notability, which should have happened in the first place, but if Fresno's FAX Q and Chicago's PACE Pulse are notable, I see no reason why Silver Streak isn't. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...

It’s a very poor sign for the health of our nation that mainstream moderate news outlets are publishing news that doesn’t pass even the lowest bar of notability (mamdani calls someone who is not technically an aunt an aunt) in order to try to swing an election.

If cuomo wins we ain’t gonna make it.

In Golden Fates AU proper: the majority of the FOs are royalty. On the SIs' corners, Teru, Kyo, & Ephrel have some notability, but about as much reach as a typical BNF fan, & Eclair otherwise almost always being recognized by association of either Kiran (looks) or Thorr (relations), often for worst.
Imagine your OC gets to meet their favorite celebrity (or royal etc., just someone really famous in their world) in person. Would they be cool about it? Nervous? Or something else?

Try winning gold in the Olympic Decathlon before you can barely, possibly, achieve the notability you deserve to debate such accomplished women.

like we would LIKE it if this was the end of it but also in we get the distinct feeling that unless they fix this at the source (update the notability guidelines to realize that myspace isn't the latest hotness and we're not in an era of garage bands, but tiktok stars) this shit Will happen again

we're gonna be real here we mostly just learned how absolutely Dogwater Wikipedia's notability rules have been for years, and have decided that we will mock them for that until they get their shit together with that. BFDI was kind of just the most brazenly obvious case of those rules backfiring

the problem is that their notability guidelines haven't updated in a meaningful way since before the collapse of myspace and as a result, even after over a decade of everything being hyperconnected by the Internet, Wikipedia's notability rules are still woefully closed off, and so they do This

nah it's. it's a tantrum. they've gone on these benders of "we will NEVER EVER GIVE (THING) A PAGE EVER!!!" and been reduced to nervous collar tugs the moment they have to acknowledge it because it appeared in a source that their geriatric "notability" rules actually has to consider.

They have also made changes to all sorts of links to the Silver Streak under their definition of notability, which someone will have to undo. Meanwhile every single New York City Select Bus has its own article! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Select_...

fwiw from a quick spot check, it might be possible for BFDI to cross the notability threshold at this point. but then someone would have to write the article in a sandbox, which you have to know a bit about insular 'pedia stuff to think of
