Talk:Mica Levi

Awards
According to imdb.com she has won at least 14 awards for Under The Skin and was nominated for 10 more. I think the wiki does not represent the achievement. Although I cannot judge how valuable those awards are. Maybe the article should appreciate 'multiple' awards and mention the most important?

Lilponcho (talk) 12:49, 26 January 2016 (UTC) I've added hyperlinks and noted that she was nominated for multiple awards-those already mentioned are the most significant. Lilponcho (talk) 12:49, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

Pikachu?
Is Micachu linked with the electric mouse Pokémon Pikachu? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.68.193.203 (talk) 20:51, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

Link Mixtape
The link for the "Kwesachu Mixtape" links to the article itself again... Should be fixed.

Pronouns
This article uses they/their but I have never heard of her referred to by these pronouns and all articles I see online use she/her. I can see this change to the page has been made recently as well. Are there any references online for her/their pronoun use? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.68.183.4 (talk) 06:10, 15 February 2021 (UTC)


 * The official Spotify page indeed uses “they”:
 * "Mica Levi aka Micachu is a musician and composer living in South East London who uses programming software, written notation and improvisation to produce their music. They are currently a member of the groups CURL, Good Sad Happy Bad (formerly known as Micachu & The Shapes) and Tirzah."
 * There is still the question whether this is acceptable language in an encyclopedia.

Title of page
Levi themself does not appear to use the "Micachu" name much anymore - any chance we could change the title of this page? Their film scores, solo albums, and credits on albums by others are all credited to Mica Levi. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjdennis29 (talk • contribs) 21:06, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I suggest you initiate a requested move process then (see WP:RSPM). (I only know of them from the film scores, so I don't think I have a good grasp of what the WP:COMMONAME is.) Nardog (talk) 22:11, 26 July 2021 (UTC)

Micachu → Mica Levi – Micachu is only one moniker of artist Mica Levi who has released music under multiple names such as Micachu, in the group Micachu & the Shapes, and Good Sad Happy Bad, but it would be more accurate for this page to be titled 'Mica Levi' the artist's name as this covers all of the work outlined in the wikipedia article, a good breakdown of the artist's work under various names can be found here: https://www.classicfm.com/discover-music/periods-genres/film-tv/mica-levi-music-composer-monos/ Albert warp (talk) 12:10, 5 November 2021 (UTC) — Relisting.

 * Oppose but would not object to relisting. The question as I understand it should be, what is their common name in reliable secondary sources? (But note that the need for them to be secondary has recently been queried, see Wikipedia talk:Article titles.) Andrewa (talk) 12:44, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support As a composer they have always been credited and referred to as Mica Levi, and the 2020 rename of the band and the fact they have released albums (and been referred to in secondary sources) as Mica Levi since then suggest WP:NAMECHANGES applies. Nardog (talk) 02:59, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
 * Support: although Levi used the name Micachu on his own early albums, his greatest notability is in winning a BAFTA Award and receiving an Oscar nomination, both of which were under his real name. In addition, it appear that he has retired the name Micachu and the Shapes and the band is now known as Good Sad Happy Bad, and he is credited as Mica Levi on their records, as well as on his solo releases. So it makes no sense to keep using Micachu as the name of the article when the artist no longer releases any music under that name. And it's standard practice on Wikipedia to rename an article when the artist renames themselves and no longer use their old name – even though Lady A had the majority of their success under the name Lady Antebellum, the article uses their new name, for example.
