Talk:Paris jackson

This is the talk-page for: Paris jackson.

Redirected to Michael Jackson's family
17-July-2009: The intended meaning of the title, for 99% of pageviews, is Michael Jackson's daughter, Paris Jackson, as noted when the title was first created on Wikipedia. Following the death of singer/actor Michael Jackson, many titles soared to pageviews from 2x-341x times higher than during January-April 2009. The title "Paris jackson" was one of those titles that soared, from a former average of 21 pageviews per day to nearly 2,500 pageviews after Michael Jackson died. Similarly, the word "blanket" (his 3rd child) soared from averaging 210 to reaching 2,500 pageviews the next day. When MJ's daughter, Paris M. K. Jackson, spoke at the Jackson Memorial service, the pageviews jumped even higher, to over 27,600 and then 73,000 pageviews, on the next day, for title "Paris jackson". From those 2 events (death & memorial), there is a clear correlation between pageviews of "Paris jackson" and major events about Michael Jackson and his daughter, Paris Jackson. The most logical connection is that 99% of users request "Paris jackson" to access information about the daughter, not the Canadian football player Paris Jackson. Multiple current Wikipedia editors have explained that Michael Jackson's daughter is, in fact, a notable topic, per WP:Notability (with "significant coverage"), but kept within other articles to reduce targeting of libel, against a minor, as a concern of policy WP:BLP. Text written about a minor needs to be better protected, using some features of Wikipedia, before highly-detailed text is presented about a minor, and such protection is not typically pre-planned for such cases, in the current neophyte policies of Wikipedia. Basically, many people are just scared to write about minors, due to a lack of verification stucture for an article, even though those structures do exist for such potential purposes. Consequently, the entire article "Jackson family" is the redirection chosen (for new title "Paris jackson") to describe some details about daughter Paris Jackson, without fostering too much vandalism/libel in that text. If another article, with proper protection could be provided, then the redirection could be reset to that article, instead. Meanwhile, the new redirections to the Canadian football player are wasting 99% of pageviews and frustrating thousands of users per day, in violation of policy WP:Accessibility, when clearly their likely interest is obviously the daughter of Michael Jackson. -Wikid77 (talk) 04:18, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
