Talk:Randy Phillips (airman)

Category for discussion
I believe, for many LGBT YouTubers, especially those who have found fame or increase fame through a coming out video, being an LGBT YouTuber is a defining characteristic, just like the Gay politicians or Gay writers category. However, a user has nominated the category LGBT YouTubers for deletion. [|Please see the discussion here] AusLondonder (talk) 09:25, 24 June 2015 (UTC)

Unfortunately, Randy’s famous YouTube channel at youtube.com/areyousuprised was hacked by someone in early June 2015 and all of the videos were deleted. Randy did not have backups, so he cannot repair the damage. He is still reachable via twitter however, at twitter.com/areyousuprised. —Stephen (talk) 11:57, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Requested move 23 August 2023

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus that the airman is not the primary topic. No consensus on the form of disambiguation; only one editor directly commented on it, who argued that it was an inappropriate form of disambiguation, while another used the term "airman" to refer to the individual and suggested a few alternative forms.

For now, I will move the article to Randy Phillips (airman). Should editors prefer a different form of disambiguation they are encouraged to discuss that and if necessary open a new RM. (closed by non-admin page mover) BilledMammal (talk) 11:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Randy Phillips → Randy Phillips (United States Air Force)
 * Randy Phillips (disambiguation) → Randy Phillips
 * Support per nomination. There are six men listed upon the Randy Phillips (disambiguation) page, with no indication that the former airman who was in the news in 2011 and 2012, but whose public profile has been much lower in the subsequent decade, continues at such level of renown that it dwarfs the combined notability of the remaining five men. As for the proposed parenthetical qualifier, Randy Phillips (activist) or Randy Phillips (YouTuber) may be considered among alternative options. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:42, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Support DAB nomination request per nom as per the guide on naming/word disambiguations. I'm personally disappointed that an RM has been open for these 2 as I would've done the first and left the second for a page mover to finish off. Intrisit (talk) 14:06, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Support the music producer has 533 views, the American football has 526, the politician has 35 and the soccer player has 13 compared with only 191[] for this one.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 17:23, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose. He is certainly not a United States Air Force! We do not use the organisation someone is a member of to disambiguate them. I would support Randy Phillips (airman). -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:40, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
