About Draft:Ditto (Pokémon)

I am confused as to why my draft was declined, as there are several, reliable sources within the article. (Oinkers42) (talk) 16:31, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It contains reliable sources, but the coverage is not WP:SIGCOV. If the sole conclusion one can draw from a source is that the Pokemon is "totally forgettable", it's probably not a significant example. And with many of the ones that actually describe the Pokemon being WP:PRIMARY, I can't see a clear example of notability demonstrated. There has also been a consensus to not put a massive amount of weight on "gameguidey" Kotaku articles. Overall, I am unconvinced there is WP:SIGCOV here. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:35, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I am seriously having a hard time seeing how an article with https://www.cbr.com/pokemon-ditto-can-be-anything/, https://www.polygon.com/2019/5/10/18564691/ditto-detective-pikachu-fight-scene, and https://kotaku.com/pokemon-go-players-are-on-a-desperate-quest-to-find-dit-1784393683 does not have significant coverage. (Oinkers42) (talk) 16:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The CBR article is clearly not a serious examination of Ditto. Making speculation like "someone could use a Ditto to turn into a gun and use it to kill, and the weapon would never be identified" goes into the realm of fanfiction, as Nintendo would obviously never explore those implications. It's an example of fan "fluff" that shouldn't be taken seriously. And the Kotaku one is fairly heavily about a rumor. The one about Ditto in Detective Pikachu could qualify, but that's only one source and not technically about Ditto in general. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 16:51, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
All three of those sources are completely valid. Why does being a serious examination of the character matter? The Kotaku source is about the fanbase of Pokémon Go speculating on how Ditto will be added to the game, and is treated as such. If Ash's Pikachu could be mentioned on Pikachu, why can a specific Ditto not be mentioned on Draft:Ditto (Pokémon)? (Oinkers42) (talk) 17:07, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
If something is not a serious examination of a character, it fails WP:INDISCRIMINATE, specifically the criterion where one must prove that fictional content is significant and influential in some manner. A source discussing the fridge logic implications of Ditto becoming a gun is not demonstrating real-world significance of the character. Do I think such a thing could be possible? Sure, I could picture an article talking about the game-design implications of Ditto being able to give birth to any Pokemon and showing its significance in affecting the games at large. But said articles do not appear to exist, at least demonstrated here. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 22:02, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars

The article Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Crazy Taxi: Fare Wars for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Hurra04 (talk) 16:27, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I based the article on other voiceover actor articles, for example [1], which has only one reference and reads like a CV. I understand you would prefer me to backup each claim with a newspaper/online article rather than an IMDB entry. A lot of the existing voiceover actor pages, however, have very little supporting info in them, so I am wondering about consistency. Apart from each sentence referring back to an article (in the example above, the author just kept referring to the one newspaper article), what else can I link to as proof? Youtube videos? For example, I might not be allowed, legally, to link to the Rolex advert she voiced, for NDA reasons, and because it might not be available anywhere on the internet. How can I get around that? (thank you)Hurra04 (talk) 16:27, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Hurra04: Hi, whether another article is referenced or not has no bearing on whether your article is notable. See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Those articles you mentioned will most likely get deleted in the future. It is common for actors to treat Wikipedia as a promotional tool and just as common for said articles to be removed.
Plain and simply, there has to be at least a few journalists who have mentioned the subject of the article and written indepth about her. There is a single journalistic source there, which is a start, but it is not enough to prove notability. If at some point in the future more journalists write articles about her, then there will definitely be a case for the article to exist. ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:12, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your attention in helping me here. I appreciate your comments and the best thing to do is to delete this page please, and I will try and do more research before re-submitting.Hurra04 (talk) 17:50, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
