Talk:Mika (singer)

Comparisons With other Artists
The cited article only compares him to Jake Shears, not the others. I get the feeling these comparisons are made on the basis of the said artist's sexuality and are somewhat facile. Why not say something like speculation around Mika's sexuality has lead to comparison with other gay musicians; although the fact that these musicians are musically pretty diverse reflects how facile these type of comparisons are. 3tmx 22:12, 11 Februrary 2007 (UTC)

– I see a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC here: Orkhonien (talk) 05:29, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Mika (singer) → Mika
 * Mika → Mika (name)
 * "usage": this article has had an average of approx. 2,000 views per day in the past 30 days, i.e. approx. 60,000 views in total, not counting the peaks (which bring that number to 109,424). That is about 6x more than all the other "people known just as Mika" put together (who have got a total 9 ,079 views in the past 30 days). I have also found a couple of undisambiguated links which meant to redirect the reader to this article.
 * "long-term significance": the subject of this article has been notable under the name "Mika" for over a decade now.
 * Oppose who? Someone who had a few charting singles 2006-2009. WP:NOPRIMARY per "Mika was" and "Mika is" tests. In ictu oculi (talk) 10:11, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
 * Comment. Note that there was "no consensus" on this move back in 2007 when the singer was enjoying his five minutes of fame. I accept the pageview argument, but I'm not buying "long-term significance" over the name. PC78 (talk) 13:12, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

Why is this article Protected?
Why is it protected? What led to its protection? Was it a dispute over Mika's nationality or sexuality? 76.65.45.114 (talk) 04:51, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
