Origin of Peepo the Frog and why he's chosen for the trophy in an award for streamers.

This article from Vice News is a far better source on the origin of Peepo the Frog and why he's extremely popular on Twitch, instead of the ignorant rage-bait article written by someone who clearly doesn't understand Twitch culture and have no idea why he's chosen as the trophy for streamers.

@Arkain2K: The article you linked doesn't even mention the Streamer Awards. The Kotaku source is simply there to identify the figure on the trophy. Unless we're writing about the origins of Peepo (e.g. for a paragraph describing the trophy), then I don't see why we should use that source. Yeeno (talk) 23:07, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does Wiki still want to use neutral and informative articles as the source?

We have two pieces here, one from years ago clearly explains who Peepo is and why he's a popular mascot with Twitch streamers, the other is a rage-bait rag from someone who doesn't even know what Peepo was until over a hundred people in the comments informed the author of his ignorant and prompted an update that recognize that "Peepo is not Pepe", but still stick to this made-up "confusion" that don't actually exists. There are zero confusion to anyone in attendance, nor the 380,000 viewers who unanimously refer to it as the Peepo trophy. Hell, even the event itself featured a "Peepo going to the Streamer Award" segment to showcase the nominees:

I implore everyone to read both articles and see which is a better source for a paragraph that attempts to explains what Peepo the Frog is. Arkain2K (talk) 03:14, 19 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Info box can look more like other info boxes

If you look at the info box (top right corner) at Wikipedia article on Comcast you will see that it starts with

The name of the company in bold

The logo of the company

Photo of the building

Wikipedia article on Billboard Music Awards' infobox starts similarly but without a buiding

So for this article's info box, the info box can start like

The title in bold (The Streamer Awards)

The logo (which is at the bottom of this info box)

Photo of the award

Questionable notability

None of the references provide significant in-depth information on the awards which are not prestigious in the sense that they are relatively unknown. I suggest this is either redirected to QTCinderella or moved to Drafts. HighKing⁺⁺ 21:31, 17 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Do you believe the issue is with the "Reliable" nature of the cited sources, or with the nature of their coverage? I believe the coverage meets the bar of "Significant Coverage" as defined here, Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline . I'm less certain about how "Reliable" the cited sources are, but I want to make sure that's what your issue is before diving in. ContentCaribou (talk) 06:35, 19 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Not to be "that guy", but on the Best Streamed Event category "Roadtrip to Twitchcon" has as featured creators: nmplol, fanfan & ExtraEmily on the website, but QTCinderella when presenting the category also mentioned misterarther, so I don't know who made the error here (QT or the web editors) but until there's some clarification I suggest we go with the written source. Plus technically the Roadtrip event was a series of co-streams between nmp, fan & emily's channels, misterarther never streamed on his. DCF94 (talk) 14:13, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

award year renaming

according to the awards website, the december 2024 streamer awards are now named as 2024 streamer awards, which will make the previous ones like the february 2024 awards the 2023 one.

now based on the sources used, for example the 2023 one, are now renamed 2022, but the source used back then named it 2023. so do we use according to the source back then or the current renamed one? Http iosue (talk) 04:49, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
