Moved per consensus. bd2412 T 21:37, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ksiolajidebt → KSIOlajidebt - oder KsiOlajidebt. While I was copy-editing it, I noted it says the name is a mixture from the name of his Halo clan (K.S.I.) and his name (Olajidebt). If his YouTube account is pronounced /Key Es Ai Olajidebt/ this is not a stylization as capital letters are not styles, but acronyms; and WP:MOSTM is neutral to CamelCase cases. © Tbhotch^™ (en-2.5). 01:55, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

weighing in as Neutral despite being the one who just moved it per a request on my talk that I may have misunderstood. Not watching the page, but ping me if you need me to do anything. StarM 03:58, 6 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - His name is not pronounced K. S. I. Olajidebt, but as one word (and I think it's inconsistent). I suggested the article's current name as regardless of what capitalisation is used, this is MediaWiki's default target. - hahnch e n 01:02, 11 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support initial proposal, probably not the camel case version. Reliable sources seem to call him KSIOlajidebt, so we might as well also. --BDD (talk) 22:30, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support I agree with BDD for the same reasons, KSIOlajidebt. SilentDan297 talk 23:47, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support per BDD. Following the usage of sources is always appropriate. Xoloz (talk) 03:56, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nationality

Does anyone have a source for his birthplace? The first sentence says he is African, but there is no citation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Veloriders (talk • contribs) 23:06, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It states that he is African-British in terms of ethnicity, where he was actually born is currently unknown. - SilentDan297 talk 23:50, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

He was born in the United Kingdom Samuel Williscroft (talk) 19:54, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The article already contains the information that he was born in Watford, Hertfordshire, England. General Ization ^Talk 19:56, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I want KSIOlajidebt's page to have a new category called Category:English YouTube personalities, as he is a YouTube personality from England.

Erledigt However, TheWikiEditoradvanced, please do not set "answered=yes" on edit requests when you submit them, as that will generally suggest that the request has already been answered and/or acted upon and no one will spend any additional time looking into it. Also, please always sign your requests (or any other comment on a Talk page) by typing four tildes (~~~~). General Ization ^Talk 15:41, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 31 October 2015

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: moved to KSI (entertainer). Unfortunately my request for more participation did not generate any further responses, so I'll have to make a call with what we have here. I find the arguments that "video game commentator" would be too narrow to be reasonable on review of the article, especially noting that he has released charting singles. Other variant created as a redirect. Jenks24 (talk) 06:28, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

KSIOlajidebt → KSI (entertainer) – The "Olajidebt" part of the name is not really that notable. Also, I chose entertainer as he is a YouTuber and a rapper. 2601:8C:4001:DCF4:95CE:54AC:9EA7:1B6C (talk) 04:02, 31 October 2015 (UTC) Relisted. Jenks24 (talk) 10:22, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. He is rarely identified as KSIOlajidebt, and is now just "KSI". Also, he is coming out with an EP and is not just a YouTuber anymore. Mr.Cheezy (talk) 15:09, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Move to KSI (video game commentator) we don't use the dab (entertainer) except where Google Books shows evidence that the person is described in books as an "entertainer". unless it is the amazing Madonna (singer) because she is in a different universe from other mere (singer)s because she has had a couple of film roles and sung in a musical film.... In ictu oculi (talk) 01:06, 1 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- You're forgetting he's a rapper though. 2604:2000:5269:8700:704F:2023:C2E1:B229 (talk) 00:48, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No he isn't. Sources don't describe him "the rapper KSI". When his career takes off maybe, not now. In ictu oculi (talk) 15:21, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Relisting comment. More participation required to decide which dab should be used. Jenks24 (talk) 10:22, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

ComedyShortsGamer

I know that Deji's (ComedyShortsGamer) page was recently merged with KSIOlajidebt's, but I believe that Deji deserves his own page back, because he is a very successful entertainer, and not just JJ's (KSI) brother. It's like having Beyoncé share a page with Jay Z because she's his wife.
Sincerely,
Mr.Cheezy (talk) 15:03, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deji is a very well known YouTuber in the community but he has not done much (if any) significant things that make him an important topic. Even though he is not just KSI's brother, he has not done any eventful/significant things, and because Deji is his brother, he is very well meant to be merged into KSI (entertainer).

In any case, you should be autoconfirmed and should make the edit yourself provided the image has the proper copyright status and you upload it.

Semi-protected edit request on 13 January 2016

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected redirect at KSI (entertainer). (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.
