== Proposed removal of [[YouPorn]] statistic ==

Recently, several IP editors ({{u|178.39.205.121}}, {{u|91.209.169.199}}, and {{u|178.39.205.121}}) have proposed that the following sentence be removed from the article:

:Porn website [[YouPorn]] reported that while their overall traffic decreased by 13.57% during the pro–am tournament, searches for "Desiigner" and "Pokimane" increased by 721% and 70%, respectively.<ref name=Johnson2018>{{cite web|last=Johnson|first=Astrid|url=http://www.gamerevolution.com/news/398217-fortnite-pro-am-drop-youporn-traffic|title=Fortnite Pro-Am Causes Drop in YouPorn Traffic|work=[[Game Revolution]]|date=18 June 2018|accessdate=2 August 2018}}</ref>
{{tref}}

I've declined the proposed removal under [[WP:PC|pending changes]] review because the sentence is properly sourced (since [[Game Revolution]] is considered a reliable source on [[WP:VG/S]]). Please discuss the change here. If there is a [[WP:CON|consensus]] to remove or change the text, please submit the edit again. Thanks. —&nbsp;'''''[[User:Newslinger|<span style="color:#536267;">Newslinger</span>]]'''&nbsp;<small>[[User talk:Newslinger#top|<span style="color:#708090;">talk</span>]]</small>'' 05:12, 11 October 2018 (UTC)

== Website ==

Can the '''Pokishop''' https://pokishop.com be regarded as a valid website? or is it too vague to be on the Wikipedia. [[User:Delta fiver|Delta fiver]] ([[User talk:Delta fiver|talk]]) (UTC) 06:02, 10 October 2019 (UTC)

== Semi-protected edit request on 6 May 2020 for Pokimane ==

{{edit semi-protected|Pokimane|answered=yes}}
I am Pokimane's manager and would like to have this removed completely as it does not apply to Pokimane's career.

==Recent Controversy==
Are we not gonna mention Pokimane helped remove ItsAGundam future sponsorship  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Blueshocker|Blueshocker]] ([[User talk:Blueshocker#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Blueshocker|contribs]]) 04:54, 19 August 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

:Unless the controversies being mentioned has adverse effects on her career, they are not mentioned, as well as it on many cases would violate [[WP:BLP]]. [[User:Delta fiver|Delta fiver]] ([[User talk:Delta fiver|talk]]) (UTC) 07:43, 19 August 2020 (UTC)

===Add controversy subsection===
At that case, can I add that subsection in this article with cited sources, both from [https://kotaku.com/pokimanes-apology-video-splits-twitch-streamers-and-you-1844778184 here] and [https://www.essentiallysports.com/esports-news-pokimane-apologises-to-the-streaming-community/ here], which she addressed from her overdue apology video on YouTube involving her recent controversy (apparently that she was involved with a boyfriend)? She also said that she's going to take a break for that controversial reason. --[[User:Allen2|<span style="color: #00f;">Allen</span>]] <sup>([[User talk:Allen2|talk]] / [[Special:Contribs/Allen2|ctrb]])</sup> 05:10, 20 August 2020 (UTC)

:Adding those articles for a controversy section really does no justice to controversy sections in articles as regarding the boyfriend thing, all she did was mention that she wants to keep her personal life and relationships private, which is something she has expressed on many occasions of her career. The break also involves little to no controversy as she mentioned taking a break a while back due to feeling burnout as a result of streaming nonstop for seven years right out of university. This information really doesn't amount to anything significant in her career as many other streamers keep their lives private and also take breaks from time to time, I guess this information just proves [[WP:FART]].

:None of those insignificant stuff are encyclopedic content, [[WP:NOTEVERYTHING]] and are violation of [[WP:BLP]] and I agree with [[User:Delta fiver|Delta fiver]]'s comments. [[User:Panda619|Panda619]] ([[User talk:Panda619|talk]]) 11:22, 26 August 2020 (UTC)
:{{u|Panda619}}{{u|Delta fiver}}  I see nothing in [[WP:NOTEVERYTHING]] that is a valid reason to not include it as long as it's properly sourced. Also how would it be a violation of [[WP:BLP]] if it's properly sourced? ''Neither'' of these pages say anything about not including controversies as long as they are properly sourced. Allen2 provided citations so I don't see the issue here. I for one believe that ''not'' including all the controversies surrounding someone as controversial as her as long as they're properly sourced is a violation of [[WP:NPOV]].

== I think she born near Algeria ==

oujda i guess.... - Samiwikia

:She had already conveyed on many occasions, that she was born in Morocco, I think that's good enough. [[User:Delta fiver|Delta fiver]] ([[User talk:Delta fiver|talk]]) (UTC) 17:03, 20 September 2020 (UTC)
Ok - Samiwikia

== YT stats ==

I think the article would be more fleshed out if the YT stats were put back up again or put up [[User:LegioV|LegioV]] ([[User talk:LegioV|talk]]) 23:21, 16 January 2021 (UTC)
