What should be the level of international notability required for players of team sports? Playing for their national team? Scoring international goals? Winning important international competitions? [[User:Jim Michael|Jim Michael]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael|talk]]) 13:44, 31 March 2022 (UTC) |
|||
* For footballers, whilst international games may be used as a guide to notability, you do have to be careful with that one as there have been some great players who happened by birth to play for fairly poor (or even very poor) international sides who would never win anything or even qualify for major finals. I know [[George Best]] is already dead, but that would be an example. [[George Weah]] might be another one (though he's automatically notable now as he's President of Liberia!). [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 07:15, 4 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
*:If you wanted some other examples, you could say [[Ferenc Puskás]] for older examples, or in modern times, [[Zlatan Ibrahimović]], [[Mohamed Salah]] and [[Henrikh Mkhitaryan]]. [[User:The Voivodeship King|The Voivodeship King]] ([[User talk:The Voivodeship King|talk]]) 11:44, 5 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
* I think it's subjective, many would merit discussion but I don't think simple inclusion criteria will be appropriate across all 'team sports'. Some thoughts: Being captain of a successful national team would help, as would playing for multiple national teams or for leagues in multiple countries. Being a player who reaches international acclaim for their skill, or was important in the founding or development of the sport would be another point toward inclusion. Having their achievements retold in TV or Film (internationally, e.g. Cool Runnings!) having a future career (in pro sports) as an international team manager might be a factor. Some sports are more international, e.g. soccer has a much wider reach than ice hockey. [[User:JeffUK|JeffUK]] ([[User talk:JeffUK|talk]]) 16:35, 4 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
*:Many are added whose only international notability is having played for their national team. Some have scored international goals, but is that enough on its own? [[User:Jim Michael|Jim Michael]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael|talk]]) 20:35, 7 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
*:: I don't think so as default, I don't think '2022 was the year that the Belarusian 1973 champions league volleyball Goal Attack died' (Made up example) is *necessarily* relevant to the year as a whole; nor the information the reader will be looking for when they come to this page in the future. (Of course if that GA went on to become a member of parliament, or was the greatest netball player of all time, that might be different) There are thousands of international team games played every year, there would simply be too many to include all of them. We have [[Deaths in 2022]] for that. [[User:JeffUK|JeffUK]] ([[User talk:JeffUK|talk]]) 09:03, 8 April 2022 (UTC) |

What substantial international notability does he have? [[User:Jim Michael|Jim Michael]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael|talk]]) 21:48, 9 April 2022 (UTC) |

:I would say being one of the most internationally high profile German actors whose notability and work extends well beyond his home country is sufficient grounds for inclusion, though would be interesting to hear what others have to say.

::He was one of many thousands of actors who've worked in multiple countries. He didn't have any significant acting awards outside Germany. [[User:Jim Michael|Jim Michael]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael|talk]]) 06:38, 10 April 2022 (UTC) |

::: That's not unusual - most film awards are country-specific, so many American actors only have American awards, and so on. [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 10:58, 10 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
::::Most film awards are country-centric rather than country-specific. For example, the [[Academy Awards]] have a pro-American bias, but many non-Americans have won them. Winning awards in only one country shows they're (primarily) domestic figures & therefore should be excluded from main year articles. Winning major awards in multiple countries proves substantial international notability & means that they should be included. We include [[Sidney Poitier]] because he won an Academy Award & a [[BAFTA Award]]. We include [[William Hurt]] because he won an Academy Award, BAFTA, [[Cannes Film Festival]] Award & a [[David di Donatello Award]]. Without those awards, they'd not be included.

: I think he should be here; he was the lead in [[Sundays_and_Cybèle]], an Oscar winning movie (which had a very small cast) for best foreign language film. He didn't just 'work in other countries' incidentally; he had the leading role in [[The_One_That_Got_Away_(1957_film)]] shot in the UK (which grossed £3 million in 1957),and a significant part in [[The_Flight_of_the_Phoenix_(1965_film)]] for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor. Put together I think that makes him important enough to be included. [[User:JeffUK|JeffUK]] ([[User talk:JeffUK|talk]]) 19:29, 10 April 2022 (UTC) |

I would like to create consensus – not exclusively on this place but on all articles on calendar years – to change using the multiple image template to make collages. Specifically for this page, I would like to suggest the current picture of the [[Russian invasion of Ukraine]] to be replaced by the one below of Zelensky. One of the great things about the template system btw is that one does not need to create a whole new collage just to change one picture. |

Olympic gold-medal athletes aren’t considered notable enough for inclusion by people here but random FIFA players are? Why not include gold medal Olympians if you are so keen on including FIFA players? The standards are contradictory. Notable people are excluded for being “not notable” and not notable people are considered “notable”. It’s like the “decision makers” on here don’t know the background of the people they deem “not internationally notable”, people who meet the standard of being notable that they themselves use. - [[User:CountingStars500|CountingStars500]] ([[User talk:CountingStars500 |talk]]) |

:::::::::::: If individual gold medallists are added here they are retained. I suspect you are overestimating the number of gold medallists from the older Olympic years. In the 1950s and 1960s (years when we might expect deaths to be occurring now) there were only around 120 gold medals per tournament for individual entrants. As the Olympics is only every 4 years, that suggests 30-35 deaths per year, but you've got to remember that many entrants competed over multiple Olympics and won multiple medals, which would bring that figure down. As such, 14 so far this year seems reasonable. [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 23:25, 15 April 2022 (UTC) |

*They are all notable. Personally, if they've played/managed a national team and represented said team in the World Cup I think they do merit inclusion.

Should [[Henry Plumb, Baron Plumb]] be included? Plumb was the 4th [[President of the European Parliament]]. I think being EU Parliament president does merit inclusion because being part of the EU and having some high position in the EU (Commissioner, Parliament Pres, Council Pres) is notable enough for inclusion especially since they essentially represent a variety of European countries.

== A proposition to settle our editorial disagreements == |
|||
Hello all, |
|||
I’m a fairly new user (joining January of last year with just under 650 edits). Some might recognize me from my more active contributions to the 2021 page. That aside, I have observed in my time editing that there have been numerous disagreements amongst my fellow editors about who merits inclusion and based upon what criteria. I have also noticed that it is generally the same small group of daily or near-daily editors having these discussions. I would love to hear the opinions of other editors on this site (are there thousands of us?) on their views regarding what this criteria should entail. This site should run on collective consensus of more than just the select few. Therefore, I propose the convocation of some kind of “editors’ council”, if you will, that is open to all users of Wikipedia and in which they can add their voice at a time that is convenient to them (meaning have the chat open for say, a week or two as opposed to a scheduled time) and we can all offer an opinion in an attempt to establish firm criteria on who merits inclusion in this article and who does not, or likewise wha events do or do not. I welcome admin involvement. That’s my own thoughts on the matter; hopefully I’m not overstepping myself with this suggestion. [[User:PeaceInOurTime2021|PeaceInOurTime2021]] ([[User talk:PeaceInOurTime2021|talk]]) 23:25, 16 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
: I think it's important to remember that whether or not a birth, death or event is significant enough for inclusion on this page is a subjective matter; there will therefore necessarily be disagreements over who or what should be included in the article, and 'defined criteria' goes against the Wikipedia policy of consensus building by editing, reverting and discussing. As long as those disagreements are dealt with in good humour and good faith, 'editorial disagreements' are not problem that need to be solved. I like this blurb from the [[Wikipedia:In the news#Significance|'In the News']] page: "It is highly subjective whether an event is considered significant enough, and ultimately each event should be discussed on its own merits. The consensus among those discussing the event is all that is necessary to decide if an event is significant enough for posting." (remembering that editing is one way to achieve consensus) |
|||
:The normal pattern on here is that someone adds something in good faith, either it remains, or one of the regulars removes it because it doesn't meet the established criteria, and the original editor doesn't feel strongly enough to discuss it and the matter ends there. Rarely someone challenges the removal and it's discussed, I do think people should avoid closing down those discussion citing merely 'established consensus' but that's something that can be dealt with if it happens. [[User:JeffUK|JeffUK]] ([[User talk:JeffUK|talk]]) 13:49, 17 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
:Depending on the subject the consensus can either be inconclusive or conclusive. like, there's a lot of subjects of media and other stuff. I can list a couple, like [[politics]], [[Sport industry|Sport]], [[Film industry|Film]], [[Television]], [[Music industry|Music]], [[Video game industry|gaming]], [[Literature]], and more. below is the consensus of each thing. |
|||
:politics |
|||
:for world leaders, the consensus is straightforward. there is a high consensus to have every world leader mentioned in death sections in Main year articles, but for pictures, the ratio of them getting a picture is depending on if the person is one of 2 types of world leaders, head of state or head of government. the one that gets pictures more is head of government cuz they run the country, while head-of-state are just symbolic symbols. (i.e. like the flag, or coat of arms). for that reason the head of government are prioritized over heads of state in terms of pictures while both are included in death sections in Main year articles. however some countries has one person that are both a head of government and state (i.e. the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Indonesia, and the Philippines to name a few) in that case their leaders would definitely get pictures, (recent examples include U.S. president [[George H.W. Bush]] in [[2018]], and Indonesian president [[B. J. Habibie]] in [[2019]]) both got pictures in their respective years of death. and some other countries have mix head of state and government meaning that the president has a lot of power and is separate from Parliament while the Prime Minister has some power but it's very miniscule compared to the president which has most of the power. (i.e. France, Russia, and Ukraine) in that context the president will get the picture over the prime minister (recent example would be French president [[Jacques Chirac]] in [[2019]]), he got a picture when he died in 2019. for head-of-state it can boil down to two types of head of state, elected (i.e. president) or hereditary (i.e. King / queen), in that context, mainly the hereditary type of head of state will get pictures, and has equal chance of getting pictures with head of government, but if it's elective it has a lower chance of getting a picture, (some recent examples of monarchs getting a death picture are [[Sultan of Oman]] [[Qaboos bin Said]] and [[Emir of Kuwait]] [[Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah]] in [[2020]], and the UK's [[Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh]] in [[2021]]), all three got a picture in the death section on their year of death. for local politicians it's not easy, depending on the politician in question it will either be and no or yes for inclusion, for governor-general's they usually are included, however they usually don't get pictures. for vice president that is still iffy ground for inclusion, a couple countries have a vice president including the U.S., for US vice presidents it depends on the person. so for example, Walter Mondale would be included due to his candidacy in the [[1984 United States presidential election]] however he lost the election and he died in 2021, there was a dispute to include him. however majority said that he can be included, so he ended up being included. for other local politicians, like members of higher or lower legislators. the inclusion is depending on the person in question, so if they were very very important to their Nation, then yes they would be included. so for example [[John Lewis]] was included in the death section for the 2020 page because he was a civil rights icon for his country. for extremely local politicians (i.e. Mayors, members of city councils, members of state / Province legislators, and US governors), they're inclusions on main year articles are zero to none. |
|||
:Sport |
|||
:currently there's no profound consensus on what sports figures get to be included, however there are a consensus to include gold Olympic medalist, and there's also a consensus to include World Cup champions, however other sports people ain't so lucky and there's no consensus on them as of yet. |
|||
:Film and Television |
|||
:these are grouped together because they're one and the same. there has been a long consensus to include Academy award-winning actors, this year in particular has seen a couple like [[Sidney Poitier]], and [[William Hurt]], last year also had a lot of award-winning actors died like [[Olympia Dukakis]], and [[Betty White]]. for all four of those actors there has been a high consensus to include them, though not all actors are included, not every actor has won an Academy Award. two examples include, Bob Saget, and Gilbert godfried. as for Saget there has already been a consensus on this very talk page to not include him in the death section of this years article, however talks are still going on for godfried on whether or not to include him and there hasn't been a deciding factor to include him or not, as of right now he's not included in the death section, though it may or may not change in the future. let's see. |
|||
:Music |
|||
:for music most artists would be included unless they're very very small artist. like for example, if they reached number one on Billboard and/or got at least one Grammy then they would be possibly be included in the death section, one example would be Ronnie Spector. though that criteria are only for makers of modern music, for makers of classical music, they would need to get a big recognition by some country (i.e. Knighthood or recognition metal), that's because the Grammys don't really qualify classical music that much. there are numerous classical musicians that died each year in even a couple of them get pictures. however for a classical musician to get a picture it varies and I don't know the criteria to get one. |
|||
:gaming |
|||
:as of right now the gaming industry is only been around for about 50 years so not much famous people have died. the only scenario I can think of is back in [[2015]] with [[Satoru Iwata]], who is a CEO of Nintendo from 2002 to his death. he got a picture when he died in 2015 |
|||
:Literature |
|||
:as for literature basically almost everyone from the literature field is included, so there's nothing to say here. |
|||

::Just on the point r.e. Mondale, he wasn’t included on those grounds - indeed, the entire debate regarding Mondale around a year ago was the basis for why we have become much stricter in who we include here. His inclusion was always a borderline, controversial one, but he wasn’t included because any majority were in favour or (especially) that he was a failed major party Presidential candidate - rather, it was because he had greatly expanded the role of his office so that it had far greater international significance in the duties that it undertakes. Extremely borderline case, and I was personally opposed to his inclusion right to the end, but he was included on those grounds nevertheless.

:My understanding of Mike Bossy is that he was the star of the New York Islanders when they won four consecutive championships from 1980 to 1983. He holds the records for most consecutive seasons with 50 or more goals and the highest goals-per-game for players who scored at least 200 goals, and the tied records for most 50 goal seasons and 60 goal seasons.

He is also the all-time top scorer for the [[Montreal Canadiens]], the oldest NHL franchise and was ranked 11th in The Hockey News 100 Greatest Players in 1998. We included [[Ted Lindsay]] in 2019 who both has less awards and is ranked lower on the All-Time list. I cannot think of any arguments against his inclusion. |

Figured this merits a discussion, given the recent edit conflicts regarding her. Personally while I would be opposed to the inclusion of ''most'' [[supercentenarians]], I wouldn't entirely be opposed to [[Kane Tanaka]]'s inclusion - given that she had not only been the world's oldest living person for several years, but was also the second-oldest person who had ever lived and one of only three people officially verified to have lived to 119 or over (and naturally any consensus r.e. Tanaka would also bring to question [[Jeanne Calment]]). Would be happy to go with whatever consensus is reached for cases like this, but I figured I'd get the ball rolling at least.

::Several years ago, it was agreed that we don't include people for being the youngest, oldest, only/last/longest survivor etc. I can't remember where/when this was discussed. Consensus was reached after some were adding people such as last survivors of disasters such as the [[sinking of the Titanic]] as well as oldest people. With the possible exception of Calment, they aren't particularly notable. Also, it's a slippery slope to oldest/youngest people in hundreds of different fields/circumstances. Likewise, richest.

:::Yeah, count me as firmly being '''opposed''' to including people purely on the basis of being a "last survivor" of a historical event - I'm talking people along the lines of [[Millvina Dean]] and [[Werner Doehner]].

|||
::however, I'm neutral about supercentenarians, but barely lean for inclusion. |
|||
::on one hand, being one of the oldest people is a rare feet. and like what [[User:TDKR Chicago 101|TDKR Chicago 101]] said, that the last time this happened was back in 1999, also if the life expectancy goes up, then, the longest age record will go up as well. |

:::Yes, and it should be pointed out that as of now, there have only ever been '''four''' officially verified people who have reached the age of 118 and over, of whom two of them lived until the 1990s (Calment and Knauss), and one (Randon) is still alive (the second oldest, after Randon, is at least two years younger and it would be a surprise if she reached a similar age). That, if I may say so, is exceptionally rare, and alongside [[Jiroemon Kimura]] (the oldest man who ever lived) I think we can afford to make exceptions for these particular supercentenarians (albeit as borderline cases), and nobody else. So I would lean towards '''including''' just the supercentenarians who have reached 118 and over, plus Kimura.

*'''Support''' Tanaka was the second oldest living person verified ever, that was a feat last accomplished by Sarah Knauss in 1999 (over two decades ago).

|||
*'''Exclude''' - I can't see much of an argument for it. I removed her from her year of birth because, since her notability consisted entirely in her being alive. Now she's no longer living, that's no longer the case. If we include her, then what happens if [[Lucile Randon]] lives longer? Do we then keep Tanaka in for being the third longest-lived person ever? How long would this continue? [[User:Deb|Deb]] ([[User talk:Deb|talk]]) 17:27, 26 April 2022 (UTC) |
|||
**'''Comment''' Yeah, this is the problem. I would be tempted to include someone who broke Calment's record, because they will always hold that record for that period of time even if someone else later breaks it, but I am unconvinced that second-longest is massively notable (though there's a large amount of international coverage, so ...).

**:I can't believe that it's the leading story in any country other than Japan. Even if it were, we don't use that as a measure of importance. If we did, we'd have to say that the [[Will Smith–Chris Rock slapping incident]] & the allegation against [[Angela Rayner]] are among the most important things that happened in the world this year. If we're including second-oldest, that opens the floodgates wide for various second-oldest x people: by ethnicity, occupation, circumstance etc. She had an ordinary life - it was merely longer than usual. [[User:Jim Michael|Jim Michael]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael|talk]]) 18:56, 26 April 2022 (UTC) |

**::I really think it's because this really goes way beyond nationality - out of billions of people on the planet who have lived over the last century or so, only about 1,000-1,500 end up living to 110 and over at any one time. And of that miniscule number, just '''''four''''' have been officially verified to have reached the age of 118 and over - Tanaka herself was the first of just two people to reach that milestone this century alone. Their longevity may be their only point of notability, but it doesn't make it any less significant, especially when we're talking about their significance in the field of gerontology (it's said on Tanaka's Wiki page as well that she "has contributed to the debate that the maximum lifespan for humans could be 115–125 years"). Just including any supercentenarian or current "world's oldest person" title is not what I'm advocating, but the ones who made it over 118 I think should be an exception. Having said that, I would '''oppose''' the inclusion of "last survivor" supercentenarians such as [[Emma Morano]] (last person born in the 1800s), [[Violet Brown]] (last subject of [[Queen Victoria]]), [[Nabi Tajima]] (last person born in the 19th Century), and other such figures, for none of them reached the 118 milestone.

== What should be the standard for entertainers? == |
|||
Here is my view : |
|||
1. A Points System regarding awards. Yes, a points system. Why points ? Well some awards do carry heavier weight than others, if they have international notability in of itself. Cannes, Oscar, Cesar, Bafta, Golden Globes, |
|||
International awards should have 5 points each. So for example if American Actor Bob Smith had an Oscar, Golden Globe, and a Bafta for his singular performance in a movie, he would get 15 points. |
|||
Of if a French Actor won a European Film award, and then a Cesar, he or she would get 10 points. |
|||
The Canadian film awards would also be given 5 points each. |
|||
Emmys and the Tonys also count as international if and only if actors/actresses/comedians outside of the US win them, for example Angela Lansbury winning 5 tonys. Or if a US Actor wins a olivier award. |
|||
It also depends however, for example, Jessica Chastain winning only a oscar and a golden globe then how doo we know that she is notable ? We have to look at smaller awards. |
|||
Smaller awards such as the Dublim Film critic festival, or San Sebastian Film Festival count for 2.5 points each, so Jessica Chastain would count. But Not Robert Morse. |
|||
It has to be a combonation of big and small awards, and/or if you get nominations from foreign awards as well. Robin Williams an example. |
|||
Group awards do not neccarily count as a sign of notability. Are we going to include every producer ? Being nominated for one also doesn't count. However once again, it depends, The oscar best picture award due to it's high singular profile, can be 2.5 points. |
|||
2. Consistent international news coverage that that details what impact the dead person has in that country. Now we have to be careful, especially regarding people like Gilbert Gottfried. |
|||
Many international news outlets just repost the associated press report with no additional information that says how he or she impacted that country. For example, Gilbert Gottfried in Austrlia, https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-04-13/gilbert-gottfried-dies/100987006, if you go to the bottom, it says AP. There's nothing extra about how he impacted australian culture. |
|||
3. So... |
|||
What doesn't count ? Being on another show produced in another country. Many US Actors for example appeared or star in international TV shows, but they don't win individiual awards in the country that the show/movie is made in. It's going to open up a can of worms if we do allow the restriction to be relaxed. |
|||
Being honored at a film Festival doesn't count either. The Eberfest is just one film festival in the US, it doesn't mean anything. Gottfried was famous in the US for his comedic career. By the standard, we would have to exclude William Hurt because he wasn't honored at a festival. |
|||
Being the subject of a international awarded documentary also doesn't count. Why ? It's not the subject that gained notability ! It's the film. Especially in Gilbert Gottfried's case, the award went to the documentary itself, not him. It would be weird if we applied this standard to say Louie Anderson, or Robert Morse. If there was an awarded documentary about Louie Anderson, we would still exlclude him. |

:Now in regards to the people listed on the Emmy's in memoriam. Their inclusion on main year pages should come down to the extent of their career. For, example: [[Kathy Lamkin]] while honoured on the Emmy page had a limited career therefore shouldn't be included on the 2022 main page.

:Sports really is not my main area of familiarity, but I think what's clear is that the question of whether or not the most significant players of regional sports (such as hockey, baseball, rugby, any "football" that is not soccer, etc.) ought to be included needs to be resolved - and that is something we have consistently struggled to resolve over the last year.

::I have my doubts that they have to be included. Neither are they the most important in that sport, nor is the sport particularly popular outside that region.

::::The [[Montreal Canadiens]] (Lafleur)are the oldest team in the league, one of the oldest American sports teams in any code and a greatly respected entity in general. The Islanders (Bossy) have been around for half a century. Lafleur won five [[Stanley Cup|Stanley Cups]], three [[Art Ross Trophy|Art Ross Trophies]] (top points scorer), two [[Hart Memorial Trophy|Hart Memorial Trophies]] (MVPs), three [[Ted Lindsay Award|Lester B. Pearson Awards]] (player's player) and one [[Conn Smythe Trophy]] (Playoff MVP). These are the most prestigious awards given each year by the NHL. Bossy won four Stanley Cups, one Conn Smythe, one [[Calder Memorial Trophy|Calder Memorial Trophy (Rookie of the Year)]] and three [[Lady Byng Memorial Trophy|Lady Byng Memorial Trophy (Best and Fairest)]]. Whilst Canadian players make up a fair portion of the sport's players, other nations have produced very fine players. In the last thirty years, the NHL's MVP has gone to four different [[Russians]], two different [[Swedes]], two [[Czechs]], a [[Germans|German]] and an [[Americans|American]]. The NHL is also widely considered the strongest hockey league - European players like [[Alexander Ovechkin|Ovechkin]], [[Leon Draisaitl|Draisaitl]], [[Victor Hedman]] and [[Patrik Laine]] all played in their nation's leagues before immediately switching to the NHL clubs (or their minor teams) who drafted them.

Is [[Neal Adams]] internationally notable enough for inclusion? |

would also like to suggest changing the date format of this article to the DMY format (e.g. 6 June 2020 as opposed to June 6, 2020).The DMY format seems more international and more suitable for a "global" article like. Also DMY simply makes more sense as it goes from smallest to highest. |
|||
On the project page, I've presented a similar proposal to use DMY in general for articles on "generic" years, but would also like it create consensus for it specifically on this article about 2020 and all other nine articles about the 2020s [[User:Marginataen|Marginataen]] ([[User talk:Marginataen|talk]]) 19:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC) |

:I'm pasting the same reply at all the 2020s talk page sections on this topic, with the exception of 2023. As of about a month ago, we had a situation in which all generic year articles had a consistent date format. Since both date styles are considered appropriate per the Manual of Style, it's unusual to see such solid consistency. Since I value consistency, I appreciated that rare situation. |
|||
:As of last month, ''only [[2023]]'' was changed via local consensus to be different than the rest. If this proposal passes for this article, it would join a tiny minority of articles that do not match the overall consistent style. I ''oppose'' for that reason. |
|||
:I would be fine with ''all'' generic year articles changing to consistently use a different style, and that is the proposal on the table at [[WP:VPR#Date format for year articles]].

Is the event for May 2 – "Russia announces it may be pulling out of the [[International Space Station]] as soon as two years from now, because of the sanctions imposed on the nation after its [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine|invasion of Ukraine]]" notable enough to be included under events? I believe this is noteworthy news, especially because no other major members from the ISS have ever left before, and the fact that Russia confirmed that they they will be pulling out before their commitment to the station is up. Lastly, because this event directly relates to the war in Ukraine, I feel the event should be added. Thanks! --[[User:Johnson524|Johnson524]] ([[User talk:Johnson524|talk]]) 22:44, 4 May 2022 (UTC) |

I removed it on the basis they have been threatening this for months; this announcement is no more substantial than the other threats, ‘Russia *may* pull out of the ISS’ is too weasly to merit inclusion as an event in its own right. they were only ever committed to the ISS until 2024 anyway so even if it does come to pass, this isn’t even news let alone an important international event.

::@[[User:33ABGirl|33ABGirl]] I don't understand your reasoning here. What is the argument here? An image could make one event more important than other events, so we should have zero images?

There are articles supporting the view this may be a case of rumour or threats that aren't likely to be substantiated. "That's not an announcement of a departure from the program — just an acknowledgement that Roscosmos will give the other partners a heads-up if such a decision is made." [[space.com Will Russia leave the International Space Station? Take Roscosmos chief's words with a grain of salt|https://www.space.com/russia-leave-space-station-rogozin-threats]].

== [[Acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk]] == |
|||
It's very common for businesspeople to buy & sell companies. We rarely include them on main year articles. [[Twitter]] is a [[social networking service]]. It's not powerful, important or particularly influential. Most of its content is [[pop culture]], celebrities, sports coverage, trivia, gossip, [[propaganda]], [[self-promotion]], [[conspiracy theories]], [[trolling]], opinions & people posting photos of their food, their pets etc. Using Twitter coverage as a measure of importance, the minor attacks on [[Chris Rock]] & [[Dave Chappelle]] are among the most important world events of 2022 and are many times more important than the [[2022 Peshawar mosque attack]]. It has news coverage, but so do many other sites & it's not widely considered to be an important, [[WP:RS|reliable]] news outlet. Claims, speculation etc. about how [[Elon Musk]] may change it are akin to [[WP:CRYSTAL|looking into a]] [[crystal ball]]. [[User:Jim Michael 2|Jim Michael 2]] ([[User talk:Jim Michael 2|talk]]) 09:18, 5 May 2022 (UTC) |
|||
* I'm sorry, if you don't think Twitter is "''powerful, important or particularly influential''", you are clearly not familiar with it. Yes, it covers pop culture, but of course it does, because so does every type of media. The fact that Twitter is used by megacorps and politicians alike to release news, announce policy and discuss the issues of the day should tell you how seriously it is taken. Politicos - up to and including heads of countries - don't phone up the NYT or Reuters to give their opinions - they simply post them on Twitter instead. There was a survey recently - which of course I now can't find - that showed that something like 70% of adult Americans used Facebook and/or Twitter as the main method of acquiring their news. [[User_talk:Black Kite|Black Kite (talk)]] 11:25, 5 May 2022 (UTC) |
|||
*:I am familiar with it. The amount of genuine, useful, reliable news on it is greatly outweighed by various junk of the types I list above. Compare how long the [[Will Smith-Chris Rock slap]] trended on there to how long the [[Peshawar]] mosque attack did. The former gained so much more coverage that you couldn't compare them on the same scale. No-one could genuinely say that an actor slapping another actor is worse or more important than an [[Islamic State]] [[suicide attack]]er killing over 60 people as part of an arrogant attempt to form a [[caliphate]].

*:: And tabloid newspapers regularly sell more than heavyweight ones, and ''EastEnders'' has higher viewership ratings than ''Panorama'', but we don't exclude ''The Times'' or BBC TV as some of our most reliable sources.

Him saying he's going to make major changes to Twitter doesn't necessarily mean that he will. We don't include things based on promises/claims/speculation.

:::::::The Chris Rock-Will Smith slap received weeks of continuous, frequent media (including social media) coverage, including reactions from a ridiculous number of organisations & celebrities giving their opinions on the 'momentous' event. Some social media channels made & released their own series of videos during late March as well as April about it. Of all the events that have happened in the world this year, only the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]] & the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] have received more media coverage. Using media coverage as a measure of importance, that slap was the third most important thing that happened in the world in 2022. However, no-one could genuinely say it was among the hundred most important events. We don't include the slap, nor should we.

Hey guys. I noticed the ongoing (fairly long) edit-war ongoing on the article over the collage. A few days ago, I proposed a process to be the standardized process for collage creations. This process is being experimented on for the 2023 collage amid the proposal discussion. If consensus get’s behind the proposal, the edit war and debate can stop.

::{{u|3E1I5S8B9RF7}}, respectfully, there is two ongoing debates right now (at the same time): The collage and zero images. In [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2022&diff=prev&oldid=1197479151 this edit], you removed the collage and added images. Looking through the history of the article, the collage, respectfully, '''is''' being debated on. Albiet, not actually on the talk page. I am aware of the zero-image debate as I had a similar debate and discussion on [[2023]]’s talk page. I will also let you know I have requested full-admin protection on the page. Your reply actually tells me it may be needed for up to a month potentially. You didn’t acknowledge the edit warring and honestly told me I didn’t know anything. The editing warring needs to stop and an admin needs to figure out the two debates. I know the collage debate (i.e. the collage you removed in that edit linked above) is actually [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Years#RfC: Removal of image collages|against the consensus]] and, respectfully, should be reverted. Not once did I mention the zero-image debate as that is a separate debate. I came here since most of the edits are about the collage. Your edit summary even said, {{tq|See the talk page. Nine images were nominated a month ago, and everyone except 33ABGirl voted to include images in the article. The collage was not agreed upon, though.}} |

:how many times we have to say this, it's different for each case. the murder of Gabby betito, the slapping a Chris Rock, and Depp v. Heard, are all domestic things that belong to [[2022 in the United States]], because all three are a footnote in history barely anybody will look back upon. the Hotel Saratoga was built back in the 1880s, and it's one of the last few things that is a Revenant of pre-1959 Cuba, and because of that, it's one of Cuba's most historic buildings. the hotel Saratoga had a lot of celebrities that stayed there (ie [[Madonna]] and [[Beyonce]]). the blowing of the hotel Saratoga means that Cuba lost one of it's pre-communism symbols, and when it gets rebuilt, it will probably look nothing like it did before. look at other communist regimes, Mao Zedong destroyed or nearly destroyed a lot of ancient Chinese Shrines, just because he thought he can rewrite Chinese history in his name, that's called the [[Cultural Revolution]]. furthermore other governments like Afghanistan's [[Taliban]] destroyed a lot of old statues, like the [[Bamiyan Buddhas]], one of the world's oldest statues before it got destroyed by the Taliban in 2001. the Taliban also destroyed a lot of other old stuff just because they wanted to. the thing is, unless it's apparent that it's super not notable, it's good to go to talk first before removing it. now, I wonder what [[User talk:Black Kite|Black Kite]] has to say about this.

::Domestic events are routinely removed from main year articles. The Smith-Rock slap & Depp-Heard case will be talked about for years. They're among the most publicised events of their lives & careers. What you're saying about the hotel is important to Cuba, but not relevant to the rest of the world. What the hotel will look like when repaired/rebuilt is speculation & domestic. Those celebs weren't staying there on the day of the explosion, so they're not relevant. The comparisons you make to former structures in Asia isn't reasonable, because they were deliberately destroyed.

::: Neither the Smith nor Depp cases are in the article (correctly so in my opinion.) I don't understand why this is being brought up in relation to a hotel in Cuba. The explosion is not a significant enough event to warrant inclusion. Sounds like an industrial accident in a building site, these happen all the time. If it was an international terror attack, in a state building, or if the hotel had been full of international guests it may be different.

I agree that if, for example, the explosion had been caused by an Islamic State bomb, it'd have been important enough to include. If the victims included people from various countries, it may have been important enough to include; that's what led to the [[Surfside condominium collapse]] becoming internationally notable.

::Hey everyone, extremely new to this page and Wikipedia as a whole. Just learned about the Talk function. As I'm sure you all have figured out I strongly disagree on the explosion not being included on this page. It received a lot of media coverage in the US and Latin America. In addition, a Spanish tourist did die in the explosion, expanding its impact. The building was also very historic and internationally known. A comparison to the Changsa Building collapse is not fair as this occurred in a well-known building in the center of Cuba's capital (And just a few hundred steps from the center of government). There was also no coverage of the Changsa collapse in most western media as far as I'm aware. Also, there being no [[2022 in Cuba]] page in English is a good reason to add it. Events shouldn't not be included because they occur in smaller, non-English speaking nations. On a different note, the month of May is nearly halfway over and there are five events currently documented there. (For comparison, April has 13 events listed by the 12th and March has 23).

Hi everybody, excuse me if I'm starting this discussion but I think that a basketball player who was inducted in the NBA Hall of Fame should be listed here; moreover the statement "he lacked international notability" is quite questionable... Lanier's death was reported all over the world (see: [https://edition.cnn.com/2022/05/11/sport/nba-bob-lanier-obit/index.html CNN], [https://sport.sky.it/nba/2022/05/11/bob-lanier-morto-nba Sky Sport], [https://www.marca.com/baloncesto/nba/2022/05/11/627b536346163f1ab58b4604.html Marca], [https://www.lequipe.fr/Basket/Actualites/Bob-lanier-grande-figure-de-la-nba-des-annees-1970-est-mort/1332418 L'Équipe]). He played in the NBA only, that's right, but if we use this criteria we should remove almost 90% of the greatest basketball players of all time. If you don't know who he was, no problems, but I sincerly don't know what "international notability" means if he did not have it. By the way, I'm not American and I wasn't a fan of Lanier, I wasn't even born when he was in the NBA, so I humbly think I'm not biased but I'm just unsure about the criteria used here. -- [[User:Nick.mon|Nick.mon]] ([[User talk:Nick.mon|talk]]) 15:36, 11 May 2022 (UTC) |

:'''exclude''' Lanier, International coverage does not equal inclusion. The MBA is a local League, that's only really a thing in North America. I'm American, so don't tell me I'm foreign and know nothing about American Sports, some basketball players get included mainly cuz they have higher honors (ie Olympic gold medals), the NBA Hall of Fame is not a higher honor, dus having said person inducted into the NBA Hall of Fame does not Merit inclusion on this article.

::Ok but in the European leagues, players usually play both in national leagues and European cups, so they authomatically have "international notability". For an American player who plays in one of the North American sport leagues this will never happen. He was one of the greatest players of his generation, he never won a title, but he was an hall of famer.

:::'''Exclude''' because he has no international notability. He should be on [[2022 deaths in the United States]], but not here.

I think there are, We have [[Timeline_of_the_2022_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine]] for a detailed blow-by-blow account, I think events in this article should be significant events in the war itself (large numbers killed or injured in a single event) or high-level international reaction (not threats or announcements.)

== Death of [[Shireen Abu Akleh]] == |
|||
Another editor added Abu Akleh to the article in the 'deaths' section. I believe her death merits inclusion as she is known across the middle-east, her death was remarkable due to her young age and being a journalist killed 'in the field' and she was a Palestinian-American who worked for a Qatari news agency killed during a conflict with Israeli forces makes this an undeniably international event. The further repercussions of her death (protests and attacks at her funeral) go further to merit inclusion in the article. The 'career' section of her article goes further to explain her 'international notability' with a career spanning multiple countries in the Arab world. I think the sum of all these factors means that her death merits inclusion. I'm not sure if as a 'Death' or as an 'Event' though. If the latter it may be worthwhile waiting on the outcome of any investigations or seeing what further repercussions there are specifically outside of the immediate area before adding it.

:She isn't internationally notable enough for Deaths, nor is her killing internationally notable enough for Events. Thousands of journalists have worked in multiple countries. Journalists being killed isn't rare, especially in conflict zones. The reactions to it are significant, but not enough for her (death) to be on this article.

Shinzo Abe & Jiang Zemin
Should Shinzo Abe and Jiang Zemin be included in the lead?
I noticed that their deaths were recently removed [1] from the lead, but they seem to be of comparable notability to those already included in the paragraph. Carter00000 (talk) 06:07, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
- If you can find a source that establishes their deaths as a significant event of 2022 (as opposed to merely having occurred in 2022), then IMHO yes. “Year in review” sources would be ideal. Barnards.tar.gz (talk) 07:21, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
- You missed the point. I removed the ones that were unsourced. In my opinion, the whole paragraph should go, as it's completely subjective. Deb (talk) 14:34, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

I would like to create consensus – not exclusively on this place but on all articles on calendar years – to change using the multiple image template to make collages. Specifically for this page, I would like to suggest the current picture of the Russian invasion of Ukraine to be replaced by the one below of Zelensky. One of the great things about the template system btw is that one does not need to create a whole new collage just to change one picture.

All articles about generic years should use the much more global DMY date format. It does not make sense to make a separate discussion about this on every single year page.--Marginataen (talk) 15:45, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

would also like to suggest changing the date format of this article to the DMY format (e.g. 6 June 2020 as opposed to June 6, 2020).The DMY format seems more international and more suitable for a "global" article like. Also DMY simply makes more sense as it goes from smallest to highest. On the project page, I've presented a similar proposal to use DMY in general for articles on "generic" years, but would also like it create consensus for it specifically on this article about 2020 and all other nine articles about the 2020s Marginataen (talk) 19:42, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Zero images?
Why are there ZERO images on this article? 2022 was a notable year, infamously so, and photos should be included here to illustrate certain events.
@33ABGirl since when is a consensus needed to insert images in an article? Did I miss a new rule? Why was my edit reverted [2]? Which of these removed images are "controversial", and for what reason?--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 15:50, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- Recently, a discussion and RFC on the WikiProject found near unanimous consensus to deprecate the use of image collages and the general inclusion of images. This centered on the arbitrary selection of images, which editors characterized as WP:OR & WP:NPOV. 33ABGirl (talk) 18:10, 15 December 2023 (UTC)
- @33ABGirl Yes, this refers to image collages, but not images itself. It is thus not applicable to my edit, which did not contain collages. Your claim of "arbitrary selection of images" could not be substantiated in the link you provided. Furthermore, years 2021 and 2023 contradict you entirely, since they also contain images. Therefore, unless proven otherwise, your revert was unnecessary.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 12:33, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- If you read the concerns raised by those commenting on the RFC, you will find they are not necessarily exclusively related to the collages, but images in general, despite the title of the RFC.
- I opened a discussion at the Wikiproject on this, where the editor commenting agreed consensus should be obtained before adding a image. Following this, a second editor agreed to open discussions (1, 2) for the inclusion of photos. In past years, images have also usually been selected through discussions - 2021 (1, 2), 2020 (1, 2). The current images on 2023 & 2021 have either been added without consensus or edit-warred in recently by a few editors, I will be seeking administrative assistance for those cases soon.
- I also remind you that the responsibility for achieving consensus for inclusion is on those seeking to include disputed content. You have added content which has been disputed and reverted, so you should be seeking the necessary consensus to restore the content. 33ABGirl (talk) 17:13, 17 December 2023 (UTC)
- You need to provide exact citation for your claim. I could only find that the theme relevant for this discussion were collages, not images per se. You are also confusing Wikimedia Commons images with external sources, since the former have nothing to do with Wikipedia:Verifiability. An image on Wikimedia is an image, not a source. Now, let's go through all these images I initially included and let's hear from you what is disputed in each and every one of them? --3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 10:27, 18 December 2023 (UTC)

Discussion for inclusion of images
I hereby nominate the following images for inclusion in the article;
- File:2022 Kazakhstan protests — Aqtobe, January 4 (01) (cropped).jpg
- File:Движение колонны бронетехники ВС РФ 007.png
- File:Antonov_Airport_after_Russian_invasion_of_Ukraine_and_Mriya_(3to4).jpg|
- File:2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine - ua.svg
- File:Warsaw Central Station during Ukrainian refugee crisis 05.jpg

- File:Russian bombing of Mariupol.jpg
- File:Webb's First Deep Field.jpg

Sincerely, --3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 10:27, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
- I oppose the inclusion of any images on the page. Adding images can create a bias towards certain events, essentially becoming a ranking of events, contrary to WP:OR & WP:NPOV. Considering the broad scope of the article, images should be omitted altogether. However, if there is a consensus does form to include images on the page, I would be happy to participate in the discussions regarding the selection of appropriate images. 33ABGirl (talk) 16:30, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- @33ABGirl I don't understand your reasoning here. What is the argument here? An image could make one event more important than other events, so we should have zero images? It makes little to no sense. Even if that were the case, you could add many images and then you would have almost an equal amount of "importance" among them. But you do agree that the Russian invasion of Ukraine is arguably the most major even of 2022 and that it therefore merits inclusion of at least some images, correct?--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 09:58, 22 December 2023 (UTC)
- That is not a valid reason to oppose, it could be used to justify the removal of any image in any article. Zaathras (talk) 00:52, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Support the addition of images as a general editing principle that every editor may do, no opinion on the usage of these individual images. The RfC that is still open is specifically in regards to top-of-the-page collages, it is not a bar on image use in general. Reverting image additions for no reason other than "any addition is biased" is disruptive, and should be treated as standard disruptive editing. Zaathras (talk) 00:52, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- Proposal - I've proposed a suggested course of action here. Please add your thoughts or comments on the proposal. 33ABGirl (talk) 17:48, 24 December 2023 (UTC)
- @33ABGirl I have to repeat it for the second time, we are not discussing collage images on this talk page. We are discussing what is preventing users from including ordinary, any images on this article.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 11:47, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
- Support there is nothing wrong with using regular images, they add to illustration and a summary of major events that happened a certain year/decade/century. Indiana6724 (talk) 01:14, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
I and many others are confused as to why images have been removed from all wikipedia pages on years. There used to be photo collages of notable events for every single year and they have all been removed. Why??? Lightningbolt1 (talk) 04:48, 28 December 2023 (UTC)
- Considering that a whole month has passed, that other users gave their opinion confirming my thoughts, and that no user gave any support to @33ABGirl's arbitrary proposal of "no images policy" (for which no reasonable arguments were presented), I think we can conclude that images can freely be added to the articles about years, provided they are not collages.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 09:55, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that the consensus is that images may be included on the page. However, I believe that there should still be a discussion on which images should be included. I suggest we use a similar system as used on the page 2023. While the discussion is related to collages, we are essentially still selecting images which are representative of the year.
- I've added a note on WP:YEARS to gather more input on this issue. 33ABGirl (talk) 10:20, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
- I can do this Indiana6724 (talk) 12:53, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
- @33ABGirl The very first sentence of this discussion I started on 18 December 2023, (@Discussion_for_inclusion_of_images) includes a list of nine nominated images I want to include. You failed in this entire month to address even a single image that I nominated. As such, unless no objections were made against any of these nine images, it should be considered as accepted to be included in the article by default.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 09:56, 19 January 2024 (UTC)
- Because there are no objections, i think its fair we reinstate these images. Indiana6724 (talk) 12:32, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Why is the Robb Elementary School shooting not mentioned in “Events”?
It was an event that garnered months of media attention, international condemnation, and led to the first gun law in the United States in 28 years. It was also featured on the front page.

Collage edit war — Proposal in progress
Hey guys. I noticed the ongoing (fairly long) edit-war ongoing on the article over the collage. A few days ago, I proposed a process to be the standardized process for collage creations. This process is being experimented on for the 2023 collage amid the proposal discussion. If consensus get’s behind the proposal, the edit war and debate can stop. Anyway, it needs to stop and be solved one way or another. Feel free to participate here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Years#Proposal for a standardized process for yearly collage images.

- WeatherWriter You obviously didn't even bother to read anything on this talk page since the discussion was not about collage images, but rather over zero images. After a month of discussion, the majority voted to include images in the article. If you want to contribute to the discussion, feel free after you have read the discussion and informed yourself about what you are talking about.--3E1I5S8B9RF7 (talk) 10:26, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
- 3E1I5S8B9RF7, respectfully, there is two ongoing debates right now (at the same time): The collage and zero images. In this edit, you removed the collage and added images. Looking through the history of the article, the collage, respectfully, is being debated on. Albiet, not actually on the talk page. I am aware of the zero-image debate as I had a similar debate and discussion on 2023’s talk page. I will also let you know I have requested full-admin protection on the page. Your reply actually tells me it may be needed for up to a month potentially. You didn’t acknowledge the edit warring and honestly told me I didn’t know anything. The editing warring needs to stop and an admin needs to figure out the two debates. I know the collage debate (i.e. the collage you removed in that edit linked above) is actually against the consensus and, respectfully, should be reverted. Not once did I mention the zero-image debate as that is a separate debate. I came here since most of the edits are about the collage. Your edit summary even said,
See the talk page. Nine images were nominated a month ago, and everyone except 33ABGirl voted to include images in the article. The collage was not agreed upon, though.

The collage - why not restore?
Why hasn't the pre-existing collage, seen here, been restored to this article yet as it has been for other articles? Per the re-closure of this RfC, many collages were prematurely removed from year articles during the course of this RfC with at most limited discussion. Given the significantly wider scale of this discussion, any editor wishing to restore them may do so.
There was some discussion and reverting here during and shortly after that RfC, but all movement on this has apparently stalled for a month and a half. Since a perfectly good collage was already created, I don't see a need for a new discussion like is being done for 2023 - and one isn't happening anyway. We should simply restore the previous collage and bring this article in line with other year articles. Crossroads -talk- 07:04, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
- Since the RfC has since been closed with overall consensus to keep them, I think it warrants restoring. jp×g🗯️ 09:18, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- I see this collage as at least passably good, it makes the article better, I see no critical problems, and, therefore I have restored it. I stand by this collage. It is a good collage. When it comes to removing the entire collage, this is clearly incompatible with WP:PRESERVE. Incremental improvement is possible. If there is a certain someone who objects to something in the collage, well, edit it. Edit it out, edit something else in, I don't know. Find a solution that does not entail removing the entire collage. Ask for help and feedback on the talk page.—Alalch E. 13:03, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- This is just your opinion. The fact that consensus is that collages can be included doesn't mean that they must be included. Each collage is created by different people and contains different images and events, thus it follows that they should all be subject to consensus. Deb (talk) 17:52, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
- If I'm not wrong we've reached consensus already (here), but it's outdated and it was still in November 2022.
- Indeed, much happened since then ,like the release of ChatGPT and the death of Pope Benedict XVI however the latest doesn't seem very relevant and to represent AI in an image would be reductive.
- However, to keep the current collage with some wrong notes underneath might not be the best solution and to remove it altogether definitely wouldn't improve the article. ~~~ Gioppolognomo (talk) 16:21, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
