Talk:Daniel Howell/Archive 1

Fantastic Foursome
Howell has also been known as part of the internet group "The Fantastic Foursome". The group has been known to get together on various occasions to make videos together and is very popular amongst fans. The foursome consists of Dan Howell, his Phil Lester (Howell's roommate), friend Chris Kendall (crabstickz) and friend PJ Ligouri (KickthePJ). Howell has also been known to appear alongside other internet vloggers such as Alex Day (nerimon) Carrie Hope Fletcher (ItsWayPastMyBedtime) Finn and Jack Harries (JacksGap) and Charlie McDonnell (charlieissocoollike). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.225.82.134 (talk) 03:51, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

Article Name
It should be 'Dan Howell' surely? It is the name he is most commonly known as, I have not once heard him referred to as 'Daniel'. --JKSD93 (talk) 20:40, 24 January 2013 (UTC)

reply: he calls himself "Daniel" in quite a few video's including here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dc1PED23xc — Preceding unsigned comment added by Malfoy999 (talk • contribs) 14:03, 22 April 2014 (UTC)

Edit request on 26 January 2013
Is it possible to list Dan's full name, as in 'Daniel 'Dan' James Howell'? I believe he has mentioned his middle name in a VYou response, and in videos, It's definitely James.

Photo
I don't understand why the photo I added was removed. It was of both Dan and Phil Lester. I know it shows two people when the article is about one person, but it is the only image we currently have that Wikipedia is allowed to use hence why I added it as a temporary measure before a more suitable image is found.

"Hottest lad of the year"??
Just a request for comment from anyone interested, is this award really notable enough to be in a Wikipedia article? There are loads of magazines with awards for 'hot' guys but they rarely appear in 'awards' sections in their Wikipedia entry. Why should this be in there? I'd rather post here than remove it and cause controversy. Thanks -- BZTMPS ★ ·  (talk?   contribs?)  20:07, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Removing 'hottest lad' awards
I am removing the 'hottest lad' awards from the awards section of both Dan and Phil's Wikipedia pages. No other biographical article mentions the award, and the award itself is hardly encyclopedic or notable - dozens of newspapers rate the looks of guys, so I don't see why Sugarscape should be treated differently. No one replied to my request for comment above either, so it seems like the issue is non-controversial. If you revert, please leave a reason here!

Please add the following awards he has received into the 'Awards' section; He has received The hottest Lad award in 2012, which is stated several times on SugarScapes website,[Source: http://www.sugarscape.com/lads/news/g31/hottest-lads-2012/ }and The LOVIE INTERNET VIDEO PERSON OF THE YEAR award in 2014 which is stated in the Lovie awards website under the Winner page [Source: http://winners.lovieawards.eu/#!sa=558]!

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the template. Edit requests are meant for simple edits that are not disputed - clearly if this has been removed by another editor, the addition is disputed. Also, just because the award exists does not mean it necessarily must be added, the notability and importance of the awarding source must be considered. A parallel example would be being ranked on People's most beautiful list; the source is much more notable than Sugarscape.com, which has an Alexa ranking of 41,000, and thus there would likely be less opposition to that.

❌ Please stop requesting changes like this be made. Both Dan and Phil have repeatedly and publicly said that they are just friends, regardless of what fans think, and unless there is concrete sourced proof of a current romantic relationship (e.g. a video/tweet/instagram post by one of them which specifically and undeniably says "we are in a romantic relationship with each other" (and no, "flirting" does not count)) adding claims like this to their Wikipedia page(s) is libellous. (If you look at the top of this very talk page, you will note it says "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous.") Claims like this are also the reason this page is semi-locked. Zingiberal (talk) 08:25, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

MEME
Dan Howell is also known for his influence on the meme culture of the internet. Not only iS he a meme himself but he is also an ambassador for all things meme. He leads an army of meme loving teenagers on the internet and is a powerful figure in the realm of Tumblr. His internet "cult" {which he named himself} is a well known, but sometimes despised force amongst the internet community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.189.48.25 (talk) 20:55, 29 April 2016 (UTC)

BBC Radio 1 Teen Awards 2016
I believe that in October 2016, Dan Howell won Best British Blogger of the year at BBC Radio 1's Teen Awards, along with Phil Lester. Could you possibly add this in? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CanYouNot (talk • contribs) 02:25, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

Channel Name
In the article it says the channel name is danisnotonfire however now I think its Daniel Howel — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.132.193.154 (talk) 16:57, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Daniel's Brother
I know that there is some controversy about Daniel's brother, but surely they should put Adrian's name in there again? It's been a long time since the incident, and it would be beneficial to put his name in, and possibly mention that there was some negativity towards him in the page. Could you put Adrian's name in, and at least consider mentioning the controversy? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Autumnsmith (talk • contribs) 02:06, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

No let’s not Memeatthedisco (talk) 22:40, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

Profile Picture
The photo displaying Howell is a bit outdated. Considering the photo is from 2014, he has now embraced his curly hair. The picture should show a more recent image of it. Izzymendoza 714 (talk) 22:06, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
