The fandom

[edit]

Please add a content for the fandom.Make it show the wholesome side and freaky side of the fandom. ~2026-39894-27 (talk) 21:30, 14 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

  •  Not done. Wikipedia is not Fandom. If there is significant and reliable coverage of events in the TADC fandom, it has a better chance of being included here, but there's no point in adding content "for the fandom" to an encyclopedia for the sake of doing so. GSK 21:42, 14 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

About gooseworx

[edit]

According to https://www.mycast.io/talent/gooseworx, her real name is cooper smith goodwin. https://leagueofcomicgeeks.com/people/109001/gooseworx, https://www.thecityceleb.com/biography/celebrity/actress/gooseworx-biography-age-siblings-net-worth-parents-height-animation-family-spouse-songs/, and a quick google search for gooseworx shows overwhelmingly a lot of wikis (i know it shouldn't be cited but it was pretty much confirmed) saying her real name is cooper smith goodwin. Even musicbrainz says it, though i can't access the site right now. Should we mention the fact that gooseworx is a pseudonym and that her real name is cooper smith goodwin? I found four websites saying this. Thecommunitiesguy (talk | contribs) 18:24, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Reliable sources need to say this. shane (talk to me if you want!) 18:29, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
I don't think these sources are perennial sources. I haven't seen them in that list on wp:RSPLIST. Also, they are secondary. There are also multiple sources, from everything i can find, that all agree that she is named cooper smith goodwin. Were the sources i listed not reliable, and how?

I wouldn't recommend using undiscussed sources for a living person biography (BLP). You can see WP:RSPMISSING on how to be sure if you can use them or not. Signed, SleepyRedHair. (talk - contribs) 18:51, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
mycast.io & leagueofcomicgeeks both seem to be largely user generated, while TheCityCeleb, by the looks of it, appears to be a bog-standard celeb bio content-mill (i.e., not likely to be reliable). There was also some previous discussion over at Draft talk:Gooseworx, with some expressions of uncertainty, due to the lack of detailed/reliable sources, on whether this was a current name, or potentially a deadname. — Jamie Eilat (talk) 18:53, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
Alright, some more sources have been found. https://www.easysong.com/search/songs/song-copyright-holder-information.aspx and https://www.easysong.com/search/songs/song-copyright-holder-information.aspx?s=2898342 are all created by gooseworx. Easysong is the source used here.
Another source i can find may be the most reliable of them all, which actually says "Gooseworx, also known as cooper goodwin smith" but i'm not sure about the middle name and last name. They seem swapped. The real name was mentioned just once. It's on https://www.looper.com/1431977/the-amazing-digital-circus-youtube-untold-truth/ But it's another non-wiki site i can find.
But with so many sources, like tons of them i'm finding, actually showing gooseworx's name, it may be confirmed. Also, we have Draft:Gooseworx, which could be used for showing gooseworx's real name, though not on the tadc article. Thecommunitiesguy (talk | contribs) 21:35, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
(edit conflict) I'm honestly not really sure what the fascination/obsession is with displaying her full name (not just you, but overall, over time, particularly on this talk page). Per MOS:PSEUDONYM, I think it's really only notable to include it (if it is reliably sourced) if someone writes a full article about her (and the article is of enough quality to not be immediately sent to AFD). There is a draft at Draft:Gooseworx where that information could be added properly (and cited). However, in this article, I think it's fine to refer to her username as her identity as that is what she is predominantly known by. GSK 18:54, 20 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

It is disappointing that people are so insistent on deadnaming gooseworx. They have not used any other name than gooseworx for 15 years. ~2026-28485-90 (talk) 08:26, 4 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

That's not what this discussion is about. The users involved are trying to find reliable sources to use her chosen name. I don't think we even know her deadname at all. Signed, SleepyRedHair. (talk - contribs) 11:41, 4 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Secrets

[edit]

how about the secrets and theorey's? like the 57 One where the number "57" apears in every episode or idk should't it be added? idk if thats needed for this page Vakarė Kriščiūnaitė (talk) 16:25, 2 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Things like that would act more as miscellaneous trivia than anything else, and in that regard I would point mainly to Wikipedia's MOS:TRIVIA guideline. — Jamie Eilat (talk) 16:43, 2 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
