My XfD performance stands at 93%[1] and my total edit count is above 5,000. I believe I can contribute towards reducing the backlog. THEZDRX (User) | (Contact) 10:53, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looking to help more directly with the rather intimidating backlog in the NPP. Have created dozens of articles at this point—already under the guise of auto-patrolled permissions for three years now—I feel confident in my article evaluation abilities. In particular, I'm deeply familiar with WP:GNG and related notability requirements on WP, with a special emphasis on WP:BLP, having delved into BLP biographies on my own through my efforts to improve site-wide coverage on music critics and musicologists. – Aza24 (talk) 20:09, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have been editing for over five years with 3.8K mainspace edits, which includes 61 articles creations, none of which have been deleted. I have never had a behavioral block or 3RR violation. In the May 2025 backlog drive, three of my 83 patrols were re-reviewed by JTtheOG and all were approved. I have been granted three-month NPP trials in May 2024, Feb 2025, and April 2025, so I hope that I can be trusted with this permission on a non-trial basis.

I would like to renew my patroller (New Page Reviewer) user right, which is set to expire on 10 August 2025. I have remained active in reviewing new pages, tagging problematic content, and contributing to the overall quality control process. I understand the policies surrounding page curation and continue to apply them carefully. I’d appreciate the opportunity to continue serving in this capacity.

Thank you for your consideration. Icem4k (talk) 15:45, 4 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Icem4k, could you comment on your evaluation of the case for notability of Tyler Toney? signed, Rosguill talk 15:22, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oh @Rosguill, I wasnt expecting that question but here’s my comment on Tyler Toney’s notability well... Uhmm Primarily, he is the co-founder and central on-screen member of the sports and comedy group Dude Perfect, one of the most popular and influential YouTube collectives globally. I believe that his foundational role in creating and leading Dude Perfet constitutes a major contribution to the evolution of online sports entertanment. Given his consitent presence and prominence within the group, and the fact that there is significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources, I believe he meets the General Notability Guideline (GNG). Icem4k (talk) 16:10, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Creatives notable for work with exactly one group are typically not given separate articles, but instead are covered in that article. So unless coverage for Tyler Toney exclusively outside the context of Dude Perfect meets WP:GNG, we would merge/redirect his biography to Dude Perfect. Looking at the article, essentially all the coverage is in the context of Dude Perfect, so I’m not seeing the case for a stand-alone article. signed, Rosguill talk 16:17, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again, @Rosguill.... Uhmm, so to be fair I did question the depth of individual sourcing when reviewing the article, especially in relation to WP:GNG. I completely understand that notability can’t be inherited trust me, I know, as emphasized at WP:INHERENT. I also understand that mere mention in sources doesn’t automatically justify notability. Group coverage alone isn’t always enough to warrant a standalone biography believe me, I’ve seen this firsthand with one of the bands I come from in Zambia. That aside, having looked through both the Tyler Toney article and the Dude Perfect article, I still believe there’s a nuanced case to be made for keeping his article separate. Tyler isn’t just one of the five members he is repeatedly positioned as the central figure in the group. And if I may quote from WP:NCREATIVE to support my thinking: A person who has “created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work” may be notable if that work has been the primary subject of multiple independent, reliable sources. I believe Tyler clearly qualifies here. He has played a central and sustained role in Dude Perfect's formation, content, and public image. And just to add some meat to the bone here when you read WP:INHERITED, it clearly gives caution against assuming someone is notable just because they’re part of something famous. But that’s not the argument I’m making but this isn’t a case of passive association. Tyler didnt just appear in a few videos he co-founded, led, and remains the most visible and consistently cited figure in a globally documented creative project. That aligns more closely with WP:NCREATIVE, where notability arises from playing a major role in co-creating a well covered body of work which I believe applies here... Now, looking back at both articles, Tyler is:
  • The co-founder, often the main on-screen face.
  • The one most associated with group identity (e.g., “The Beard”).
  • Cited in interviews on personal matters talking about his faith, marriage and leadership.
  • Mentioned in external media as the lead voice or spokesperson.
  • Credited individually in multiple world record achievements and tour leadership roles.
Even the Dude Perfect article itself refers to him by name, quotes him in records and interviews, and shows a pattern of media outlets singling him out. While much of this is still within group context, I think it elevates his individual recognition enough to consider standalone notability cause based on support from WP:NCREATIVE, I will still say that he is arguably notable enough for a separate article particularly given the volume and quality of mentions that focus on his identity, persona, and leadership to the group. That said, as a reviewer I think I would be open to a merge or redirect if consensus supports it, given the current source landscape. However, based on the subject’s prominence and recurring individual coverage, I believe there’s potential for a standalone article to be fully justified in the future should more independent, in-depth sources focusing solely on Tyler come to light if a merge or redirect was to happen.
