• Sebastian Fors → Forsen
• Forsen → Forsen (disambiguation)

– Per WP:PSEUDONYM, eSports personalities are generally referred to by their nicknames and not their birth rates - see Kripparrian or AmazHS for examples. As neither of the two articles currently listed at "Forsen" are actually known by just that name (its a surname disambiguation article), it's safe to assume that Sebastian Fors is the primary topic here.

• Oppose the primary topic in books if there were one (there isn't) would be the Swedish surname. In ictu oculi (talk) 11:26, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

As below Support Forsen (video game player) that would be fine. In ictu oculi (talk) 12:00, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

• Looking through the sources, I support the suggested move (or a move to Forsen (video game player)). ~Mable (chat) 11:46, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
• Support - Current location is obviously not in keeping with WP: COMMONNAME; even the current version of the article itself consistently refers to the subject as "Forsen". I can't think of any possible objection to moving the article as proposed (and apparently neither can In ictu oculi). Moving the current Forsen article to "(disambiguation)" is likewise a commonsense move.--Martin IIIa (talk) 11:48, 25 October 2016 (UTC)
• Support, looks like the gamer is most likely the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. In fact the other two Forsens may not even meet notability. Harold K. Forsen may not pass WP:NACADEMIC and the only sources are obituaries, which are not considered reliable sources. John Forsen looks to be in a similar situation.--Prisencolin (talk) 00:36, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
• Support, per nom. Neodop (talk) 21:29, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Reliable source + belongs on biographical page?

Forsen is known to have a very large viewerbase on Twitch.tv but attracting more of a rowdy crowd than most Twitch.tv streams.[1] Forsen has had his stream banned on many occasions because of users in his stream posting racist, misogynistic or other prejudices in his chatroom which is against Twitch.tv's community guidelines.[2] Forsen has never condoned this kind of behaviour himself.

(1) The source is not neutral or describes Forsen himself. Is this source worthy of keeping at all?
(2) Does this information belong here? Of course both positive and negative information should be on Wikipedia, but is this content applicable to the person, or is it just his viewerbase? -Treetear (talk) 01:40, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Change a couple of things - Seb is not married to nina as of yet He isn't the 15th largest variety streamer, he is the 3rd largest variety and 15th largest streamer but this is all in terms of sub count Finally "streaming to over 2,000 up to 30,000 viewers" should be changed to "Streaming to between 2000 and 30000 people" not only does it sound a lot better but it also eliminates the fact that not everyone uses commas in large numbers to signify a change of 1000x WittySeal (talk) 22:17, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

 Partly done: Updated his 17th place subcount, the 2,000 to 30,00 people grammar correction. It is standard to keep comma separation of 1000's, per MOS:DIGITS. Waddie96 (talk) 08:15, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Unsourced claims about Forsen's personal information

Having just finished making large scale updates to the article, there are two changes that I felt were important to put to discussion, the first of which is decision to change Forsen's real name in the lead from "Sebastian Hans Eli Fors" to just "Sebastian Fors." In my research, I could not find one reliable source which could confirm this full version of his name, and though it was referenced as such in a piece from Wired, I'm worried for a situation where other sources are citing the previous version of this article as a source for his full name, and this article citing them in turn. The other change, which I haven't made, concerns his partner. Again, there are no reliable sources which can confirm even just her name (Is it Nina? Is it Nani? Is her last name even Heichou?), nor is there a citation in the original version of the infobox from which this is a holdover. I'm leaving it intact for now because of my own lack of knowledge about the subject, but I think both of these are worth scrutinizing. Aaph (talk) 01:36, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

In the first paragraph of the "streaming career" section, clarify the meaning of a "Lidl" game and how it relates to the German department store; as it stands, a non-baj reader won't understand why it's called a "lidl game" Chegler (talk) 00:36, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: I believe the wikilink to Lidl, which it's article describes as a "discount retailer chain", and the dependent clause "a term coined by Forsen to describe games of low production value" adequately explains to someone unfamiliar with either Forsen or Lidl what the connection between the 2 is. It certainly did for me, as I didn't know either of them until reviewing this request! —Sirdog (talk) 01:04, 29 July 2024 (UTC)
