'''[[Talk:Kanye West#rfc_701A07F|Talk:Kanye West]]'''
{{rfcquote|text=
West's influence extends far beyond rap, and several current musical acts have publicly expressed that they were influenced by him, or have multiple media outlets saying that their music is influenced by West (eg - Billie Eillish, Frank Ocean etc). He has a lot of influence in hip hop, but also on mainstream pop, RNB and other genres. I think we should change 'one of the most influential rappers of all time' to 'one of the most influential musical artists of all time'.
If that sounds too grandiose, 'one of the most influential musical artists of the 21st century' is also appriopriate. [[Special:Contributions/59.93.255.148|59.93.255.148]] ([[User talk:59.93.255.148|talk]]) 19:30, 26 January 2022 (UTC)}}

{{rfcquote|text=
Hi All,
I would like to expand this list with online encyclopedias that do not have their own Wikipedia articles. I believe they are relevant to Wikipedia but don't necessarily need their own articles ([[List of 19th-century encyclopedias|other]] encyclopedia lists also have items without an article). I would use [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mix'n'match/Catalogues this list] compiled for Wikidata properties - plenty of important, academic encyclopedias. When I tried to start expanding the list, my edits were reverted by {{ping|MrOllie}}. See our discussion about this [[User_talk:MrOllie/Archive_15#List_of_online_encyclopedias|here]]. One of his concerns was that the list would be filled with fan wikis - this can be avoided easily that the list only includes non-open reference works. Anyway, could you chip in and tell if it's okay for me to expand the article? Thanks.

{{rfcquote|text=
Should the "C" company in The CW be referenced as "CBS" or "CBS Corporation"? [[Special:Contributions/2600:1700:C960:2270:8843:93B0:8C46:3FA8|2600:1700:C960:2270:8843:93B0:8C46:3FA8]] ([[User talk:2600:1700:C960:2270:8843:93B0:8C46:3FA8|talk]]) 21:11, 19 January 2022 (UTC)}}
'''[[Template talk:Infobox comics character#rfc_B65783D|Template talk:Infobox comics character]]'''
{{rfcquote|text=
Should there be an epithets parameter in the infobox?
I think there should be, since most comic book characters have epithets, and also to prevent people from mistaking epithets for aliases and putting them in the aliases section, a mistake I have seen frequently in character articles. Any thoughts?<br>
