Should we include Madonna

[edit]

@BlueboyLINY and other significant editors of this article: should Madonna be included in this list, now that her social media account circulating the internet strongly suggests that she has come out? The referenced source would not be her social media account itself but a WP:RS that states that she appears to have come out? Does this meet threshold or not?

@Castncoot: is it possible to present said source in this thread for review? NeutraI (talk) 21:18, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Castncoot: the effort of presenting sources is appreciated but unfortunately, titles and commentary with wishy-washy phraseology such as appears, strongly suggests, and seemingly automatically disqualify this proposal from meeting the required threshold. If independent reliable sources supporting the proposed change with authoritative language are brought forth, then by all means I'm on board (as everyone else should be too). Put simply, we have to wait until it's "official" before going in with the change, hope this helps. Best, NeutraI (talk) 08:09, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@NeutraI:: Agreed. I just wanted to see what others thought. Thanks for the affirmation. Best, Castncoot (talk) 16:54, 13 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What does "from" NYC mean?

[edit]

A lot of these people are not "from" New York City by any stretch of the word. Maybe they live here now that they're famous? What are the criteria here? Rubyedlin (talk) 20:23, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
