It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at A. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Declined, as neither Youtube or Twitter are WP:RS. Ferkjl (talk) 19:13, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Go ahead on the first line, but add a comma after 2019.

Second line not done as press release websites are not a reliable source. Ben ❯❯❯ Talk 20:02, 2 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Since this request has been answered, I am closing this request. Z1720 (talk) 16:11, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Quality of sources

As it stands, this article is pretty reliant on some pretty low-quality sources, that frankly should not be used in a BLP article. Some examples include ^[3] (discouraged per wp:RSP - its a syndicated source with user-generated content), ^[4] (we the unicorns is a defunct user-generated wiki about youtubers), ^[5] (the blog of a company selling food products (?) ). I will be removing these sources, unless anyone has any object.

Semi-protected edit request on 1 August 2022

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

"In February 2011, Keem promoted FortressCraft, a game coming to Xbox Live essentially a clone of Minecraft, Keem contacted the Indie developer and made a deal with him and took part-ownership of the game."

This sentence runs on for too long. "essentially a clone of Minecraft" is irrelevant and should be removed from the sentence, and the sentence should be split in two:

possible error

"In September 2012, Keem began using the trend #DramaAlert on Twitter." Should the word "trend" be replaced with "hashtag" or is this intentional? 2600:4040:A034:A300:38CD:A1D9:DC04:1A8F (talk) 05:53, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
