Vegaswikian (talk) 17:01, 20 May 2011 (UTC) This page was moved by L Trey who is continuously moving Tyler, The Creator's pages with no references and many times with no explanation. I will show you proof that his name is Tyler, The Creator most notably the comma and the capital T in the word The in this link. Thank you for your time.

Tyler, the Creator discographydiscography of Tyler, the Creator – The current name is confusing due to presence of the comma (it seems to be about "the Creator discography", which is named "Tyler". This title only makes sense to people already familar with Tyler, the Creator. ]I'm still skeptical that the comma is used consistently enough in reliable sources for us to retain it as "required" (especially since the WP:CRITERIA are clearly met without it), but that's already been argued over before.] As precedent, I'll note that we also alter the typical order of things like "Category:English English billiards players" to Category:English players of English billiards for similar clarity reasons.  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  20:12, 1 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Although supportive of the argument presented in the nomination, particularly regarding the comma, I am reluctant to support the move due to the great predominance of the "[Name] discography" standard form within Category:Discographies of American artists. —Roman Spinner (talk)(contribs) 10:07, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    Please see WP:NOT#BUREAUCRACY. Our naming convention guidelines exist to serve us, not the other way around, and they primarily are an internal maintenance streamlining matter and a form of a dispute prevention and resolution (the readers don't care much if it all). Such concerns take a back seat to clarity for actual readers, and this is a very unclear title to anyone who doesn't already know who "Tyler, the Creator" is. By the exact reasoning you're offering, the category I mentioned should be renamed "Category:English English billiards players" to match Category:English snooker players, Category:English pool players, etc., etc., regardless of the reader-facing consequences.  — SMcCandlish ¢ >ʌⱷ҅ʌ<  12:01, 2 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose I'm afraid I don't see the confusion. "Creator" is capitalized, making it obvious that it's part of a name, rather than a "creator discography".ZXCVBNM (TALK) 14:43, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per above. This is standard form and I dunno the current title seems obvious and unambiguous to me. Nohomersryan (talk) 19:04, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The "confusion" is exaggerated. -- Tavix (talk) 18:04, 4 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. I fail to see what this could be confused with. ---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 07:33, 5 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Tyler, the Creator discography[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Tyler, the Creator discography's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "MC":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 03:00, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
