Hey Qween!

New stub: Hey Qween!

---Another Believer (Talk) 00:53, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Project members might be interested in discussions at Talk:Hey Qween! User:Armadillopteryx Putting on your radar, since you've worked on the Lady Red Couture entry. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:19, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
Also, the show seems to be officially affiliated with Drag Race. Not sure if we should be mentioning Hey Qween! in various Drag Race-related articles and templates re: related programming. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:33, 23 January 2024 (UTC)

Non-Interview/Non-News Sources

So for example, Vivienne Pinay grew up in Atlanta, Georgia and Vivienne doesn't do drag and barely did any interviews, but on her instagram, she confirmed that she is originally from Atlanta. I know @Another Believer prefers only inverview/new sources, but there's none for that little information of Vivienne. Same with NPB's own website. I was just wondering if I can use those as sources since Vivienne and Nicole did confirm themselves on what I wanna add and it's their own words? MiitomoChris (talk) 06:17, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

We are not required to add every single fact about an individual to their biography. We should be summarizing what reliable sources say about a topic. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:29, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
But isn't what they say on their website or social media reliable too? Because they own their website and instagram! And I know we aren't required to add every fact, but im a hometown nerd and I think it's nice to add where they grow up, because a lot of them are from small, conservative towns and as someone who's from that environment, it kinda makes me feel seen if that makes sense. MiitomoChris (talk) 17:19, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
See Wikipedia:Reliable sources, and especially Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Self-published_sources_(online_and_paper). We should only be including biographical details that have been confirmed by reliable sources. Wikipedia has standards for good reasons. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:46, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

List of *other* similar Drag Competitions outside the WoW:Drag Race umbrella

May not have capitalizations quite right

Looking to expand this, not sure if we would keep this pinned.Naraht (talk) 17:07, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

I don't mind occasional posts related to drag shows outside Drag Race, but we shouldn't pin content at WikiProject Drag Race that's not about Drag Race. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:11, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
Also, I know there wasn't much interest in creating Wikipedia:WikiProject Drag at WikiProject LGBT studies, but if you and any other editors feel strongly that you need a dedicated WikiProject for drag outside Drag Race, then be bold and start a new space! Or, put together a proposal at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals and see what happens! For the record, if a new WikiProject Drag were created, I would join. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:18, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Notable episodes?

Do other notable episodes come to mind? It'd be nice for this project to have more episode articles, and even better to have at least one promoted to Good article status, to serve as an example.

For consideration:

---Another Believer (Talk) 15:47, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Maybe episodes which were nominated for / won an Emmy award? Umimmak (talk) 19:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
@Umimmak Definitely helpful. Please share if you are able to identity those episodes, thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:02, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_awards_and_nominations_received_by_RuPaul%27s_Drag_Race#Primetime_Emmy_Awards
A lot of the time it seems the first episode is submitted for consideration by default, but I'm seeing the following episodes which are connected with an Emmy nom (assuming the Wikipedia page is correct):
  • Season 9: Oh. My Gaga! (costumes, hairstyling, makeup, picture editing)
  • Season 10: 10s Across the Board (directing, cinematography, costumes, makeup, picture editing, hairstyling)
  • Season 12: I'm That Bitch (directing, costumes, hairstyling, makeup, editing, sound mixing)
Also individual episodes of Untucked which have had Emmy noms include:
  • Untucked – "10s Across the Board"; Untucked "The Ball Ball", Untucked "The Bag Ball"; Untucked "The Daytona Wind 2" (picture editing)
Umimmak (talk) 20:17, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
Super helpful! Thank you. I will add some links and would very much appreciate help updating entries with Emmy details. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:18, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
I mean we should still make sure they'd be notable in general, I'm not entirely sure that the awards where the first episode gets submitted almost by default make those episodes notable -- something to discuss. But these certainly might be episodes to further look into. Umimmak (talk) 20:21, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
This is a helpful exercise because I have already identified a couple errors in episode titles. For example, season 7 had "The Hello Kitty Ball" as the episode name, but "Hello, Kitty Girls!" is the actual title. Is anyone able to easily create a condensed checklist of episodes (perhaps from this) that we can use here to note which episodes have standalone entries and which do not? Something simple, with the episodes in chronological order for us to use at a glance? ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:17, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

New articles

@Another Believer, maybe a pinned list of episodes that may be notable? — JuanGLP (talk/contribs) 18:19, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

I think we should be selective about how many things we pin here. Maybe let's just start by using this section to share other possibly notable episodes or see if any editors are prompted to create more entries. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:49, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Snatch Game episodes

There are many episodes called "Snatch Game". As far as I can tell, if we were to create episodes for individual episodes, here's what the pages would need to be called in order to comply with disambiguation rules:

This assumes the episode titles are correct at List of RuPaul's Drag Race episodes. I've found a couple errors, so double checking is required. ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:13, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

RPDR season 7 episodes

Since someone felt the need to redirect almost all episode entries indiscriminately, I'll start over, initially focusing on season 7 (with diffs as starting points):

Starting this as a personal checklist, but of course I invite other project members to help expand any entry if interested. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:47, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

How project members can help:
  • expand episode descriptions
  • add details about the contestants' runway looks: descriptions, inspirations, commentary
  • add screenshots (fair use) to the infoboxes
  • add air dates and other infobox parameters: previous and next episodes, etc.
  • add Ratings information
  • when applicable, add details about songs and releases (discography, singles, EPs)
--Another Believer (Talk) 00:50, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
Update: I've expanded the pages that were redirected unnecessarily, but we still need entries for "Spoof! (There It Is)", "RuPaullywood Stories", and the Snatch Game episode. Working on season 8 below... ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:46, 1 March 2024 (UTC)

Recatted Secret Celebrity winners and results.

I created Category:RuPaul's Secret Celebrity Drag Race winners and put the articles for the celebrities in it and removed the drag names for the celebrities from Category:Drag Race (franchise) winners (so, for example, Jordan Connor was added to the first and Babykins La Roux (Jordan's drag race on the show) was removed from the second. So at this point, the articles in the franchise winners category (rather than in a subcat) are:

"And the Rest Is Drag" has been nominated for deletion. This is essentially an opportunity to demonstrate that individual episodes of Drag Race can be independently notable.

@JuanGLP: Do you think you might be able to help with a screenshot for the infobox and a Ratings overview? ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:17, 3 March 2024 (UTC)
I know a few television shows have articles for every episode (Category:Star Trek: The Original Series episodes), but is that true for *any* competition show? There are even a few missing for the Simpsons, which is a show with *considerably* wider coverage.Naraht (talk) 22:37, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

sortkeys for seasonlists

Based on what has happened on Drag Race Down Under, where the name change has put season 4 before the other three seasons in Category:RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under seasons, I propose that for each of the subcategories of Category:Drag Race (franchise) seasons, such as Down Under and Category:RuPaul's Drag Race UK seasons, that they have sort keys equal to their seasons, so for example, RuPaul's Drag Race UK (series 2), the sortkey is 02. I'm making the assumption here that none of the Drag Race Franchises will have more than 99 seasons, but if that is a concern, we can use 002.Naraht (talk) 13:59, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

"RuPaul Roast"

FYI, I've converted RuPaul Roast into a disambiguation page since there are now two articles for episodes with this title (season 5 and season 9). I think I've disambiguated the pages correctly, which will similarly need to be applied to the many similarly named "Snatch Game" episodes. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:01, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

GAN Backlog Drive

FYI, a GAN Backlog Drive is being held in July. If you've been wanting to polish and nominate an article for Good status, now's a great opportunity to possibly get a review sooner than later! Sharing in case any project members are interested in participating or nominating. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:36, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

Please help identify people, create subcategories, and illustrate Wikipedia articles appropriately. I've already removed a few entries from the Unillustrated biographies section at the top of this page. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:45, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

The uncategorized queens are, in order: Envy Peru, Angele Anang, Suki Doll, and Prince. Cornmazes (talk) 04:59, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
Are there any more pictures able to be uploaded, by the way? Cornmazes (talk) 17:47, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
I sure hope so! ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:59, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
@Cornmazes: I see more have been added ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:37, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

There's a bunch more pictures from DragCon under flickr.com/photos/dvsross that seem to fit the proper licensing to be able to be uploaded to the Commons, but I'm not sure how to verify that (and how to upload the pictures) Cornmazes (talk) 05:21, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
@Cornmazes Are you familiar with Flickypedia? After logging in and inserting the Flickr album URL, Flickypedia suggested all of the images could be uploaded. I didn't want to upload lots of duplicates, so I didn't complete the process, but I think you should be able to select which images you'd like to see added to Commons. I hope this helps! ---Another Believer (Talk) 13:11, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
Just used it to upload a bunch more, thanks! By the way, how does one go about cropping images for the commons? Do I just download the picture and crop it on my own device, or is there a tool I should do that with on the commons itself? Cornmazes (talk) 20:23, 2 August 2024 (UTC)
@Cornmazes Thanks so much! I am following your work by creating subcategories at Wikimedia Commons, removing 'image needed' tags on article talk pages here at English Wikipedia (and updating the list of unillustrated bios at the top of this page), and cropping images. To answer your question, I use CropTool over at Wikimedia Commons. It is very easy to use! I hope this helps, and thanks again for work here. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:53, 2 August 2024 (UTC)

Kaos and Morphine Love Dion in the news:

--Another Believer (Talk) 00:35, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

Not-so-fun fact: I'm actually featured in one of the articles in this incident (linked here: pride.com/drag-queens/morphine-love-dion), as I run a somewhat well-known drag updates account on Twitter, Drag Crave, which was quote-retweeted by multiple queens after I posted the news of the incident. No other info, just an interesting tidbit (to me) I wanted to share. Glad everyone in the car survived, and I hope that her and Kaos are on a speedy road to recovery.

Unfortunately, this is not going very well. @Diannaa, Hamtechperson, and Naraht: Thanks for trying to help. I'm not sure what else we can do here. ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:10, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
This isn't even in the same zip code as "going well". I'll continue to watch and there may be some of the additional info which is worthwhile, but at this point it is a coin flip between the user getting locked or the article getting bluelocked within a week or two. (If neither has happened by the end of August, I'll be *very* surprised) After that happens, I'll seriously look at some of the changes, but with some of the additions being copyvios, we may not even be able to tell what the editor wanted. This feels like watching the beginning of a car crash.:( :( Naraht (talk) 14:24, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
We've asked them to follow the rules. All they have to do is ask on the Talk page how we can help, but (shrug) ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:37, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
Sigh, now a username change and continued inappropriate editing. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:49, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

The user claiming to be the subject has uploaded the following images to Commons:

Are these actually usable, or will they just be deleted soon? ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:36, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

My guess is that it depends on whether they are actually images an episode of RPDR (which would prove the user doesn't control them) they'll be deleted, otherwise they'll be acceptedNaraht (talk) 14:43, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

I dunno, I give up trying to help. All they have to do is share sources and make suggestions on the talk page. We don't even know for sure if the editors is the subject. We'll see if anyone else from here helps. ---Another Believer (Talk) 17:26, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
