Talk:Alastor (Hazbin Hotel)

Move this article to "Alastor, the Radio Demon"
Given the unique identification of this character, I think it would be more sensible to include Alastor's title in the series as part of the article name as that remains one of his most distinctive features. It wouldn't detract from the article's contents and could help readers better identify the subject matter. Just Your Average Stellaron Hunter (talk) 03:57, 28 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that sounds like a good idea to me. Blubewwy (talk) 12:51, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

But, the characters, Hazbin Hotel itself, commonly just refer to Alastor as just Alastor. Alastor introduces himself as Alastor, and when another character addresses Alastor, they address him as... just Alastor. The Radio Demon is a nickname, second to his common name, Alastor. If readers were just looking for Alastor by searching 'Radio Demon,' that term would probably find itself more suited as a redirect, definitely consider creating that. I think the (Hazbin Hotel) identifier performs excellently enough for the purpose of identifiying him to readers. ~ GoatLordServant(Talk) 13:08, 28 February 2024 (UTC)

Why the extended confirmed protection?
What exactly happened to warrant the Wikipedia article for Alastor getting this high level of protection? Was there an especially deadly edit war going on? Perhaps something entirely different? Please let me know, I'd love to get my hands on the lore behind the extended confirming of this article. Royz-vi Tsibele (talk) 05:38, 4 March 2024 (UTC)


 * @Royz-vi Tsibele I believe it is to prevent a person who tends to create a lot of sock puppet accounts from editing this page. Blubewwy (talk) 11:39, 4 March 2024 (UTC)

Where does he appear in "Die Young"?
The page lists his first appearance as the "Die Young" music video, I've watched the whole thing (pausing every time there's any background characters on screen) and I don't see him anywhere. For reference, I'm comparing him to this old drawing of his deer form, could someone point me to where he appears? The page citation is just a link to the YouTube vid. --Aabicus (talk) 18:37, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Update: As I can't find any online sources supporting the claim, I'll be removing it in 24 hours unless somebody posts it here.--Aabicus (talk) 02:34, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Whoever initially created all these Hazbin articles seems very dedicated to hunting down the very earliest forms of some of the characters, as they occasionally appeared in ZooPhobia content as iterations barely recognizable as their current characters. A lot of it is really unneeded, in my own opinion. Blubewwy (talk) 12:47, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Could an image be added to the article?
I can't since it has extended protection, it just feels somewhat empty without one FizzleDrunk (talk) 20:13, 4 March 2024 (UTC)


 * It says here you can get permission yourself by making 500 edits elsewhere first. 199.127.61.137 (talk) 20:21, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I know that, I have not made 500 edits to wikipedia FizzleDrunk (talk) 21:24, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Right. But you can make 500 edits, like if you click your profile there is copyediting. 199.127.61.137 (talk) 01:40, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Gaming the system just to get extended confirmed protection is not really a wise idea. Blubewwy (talk) 12:47, 5 March 2024 (UTC)
 * @FizzleDrunk There have been a lot of images of him floating in and out of the article. It seems to be some kind of copyright violation to have screenshots of him from the show in the article. Blubewwy (talk) 22:43, 4 March 2024 (UTC)
