Proposed removal of YouPorn statistic

Recently, several IP editors (178.39.205.121, 91.209.169.199, and 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.^[1]

References

I've declined the proposed removal under 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 consensus to remove or change the text, please submit the edit again. Thanks. — Newslinger talk 05:12, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Website

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

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

I am Pokimane's manager and would like to have this removed completely as it does not apply to Pokimane's career. You can reach me at [email redacted by JTP ^{(talk • contribs)}] if necessary.

Done, but in the future, please read WP:COI and follow those instructions for making edit requests. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 19:42, 6 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Controversy

Are we not gonna mention Pokimane helped remove ItsAGundam future sponsorship — Preceding unsigned comment added by Blueshocker (talk • contribs) 04:54, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 07:43, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Add controversy subsection

At that case, can I add that subsection in this article with cited sources, both from here and 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. --Allen ^{(talk / ctrb)} 05:10, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 08:16, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

None of those insignificant stuff are encyclopedic content, WP:NOTEVERYTHING and are violation of WP:BLP and I agree with Delta fiver's comments. Panda619 (talk) 11:22, 26 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Panda619 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. Delta fiver (talk) (UTC) 17:03, 20 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

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 LegioV (talk) 23:21, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
