Phelan Porteous does have a recently-created Wikipedia page, so I suggest that a hyperlink is provided. 2001:569:FC73:F500:6904:CBEC:FB48:7E34 (talk) 18:04, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Undone. Please provide more reliable sources in article attempts before restoring link. Jalen Folf (talk) 18:55, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 1 April 2023 (3)

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I propose that a separate Wikipedia page should be created for Phelan Porteous, who is only mentioned briefly in the article. 2001:569:FC73:F500:6904:CBEC:FB48:7E34 (talk) 19:20, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: Please re-read what was sent to you; per WP:BURDEN, it is on you to provide the requested reliable sources. Jalen Folf (talk) 19:54, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that Phelan Porteous, who has many videos on YouTube and is a well-known Channel Awesome reviewer, is notable enough to be given his own Wikipedia page. I propose that someone create a page for him with reliable sources. 2001:569:FC73:F500:6904:CBEC:FB48:7E34 (talk) 20:14, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You can create an article in the Draft namespace yourself, this is best done by following this tutorial. You will have to submit an AfC request when you're done with the draft. Make sure that the article draft follows all relevant guidelines! Actualcpscm (talk) 21:02, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

GuruLarry

As of February 2023, GuruLarry has been fired and is no longer part of Channel Awesome.^[1] Bleggen (talk) 08:17, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not that he was fired, more that the site went defunct by just redirecting to the YouTube channel, taking him and Brad Jones' presence with it. I doubt they even realised Larry was still there. Harryhenry1 (talk) 04:27, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
