Use of "Michaels"[edit]

Should we be referring to Kameron Michaels as simply "Michaels" (which is not a true last name)? We've had this discussion on other drag queen article talk pages, but I want to discuss this subject specifically. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:55, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If I recall previous discussions correctly, our own informal consensus was that drag queen surnames are, in general, not true last names. However, Kameron explicitly refers to "Michaels" as her last name in sources such as this and this (in the latter, 11:45 minutes in). At the very least, it's a self-identified last name in this case. I'm open to others' thoughts, though. Armadillopteryx 03:00, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Armadillopteryx, Ok, that's helpful, thank you. ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:04, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article was promoted to GA on 3 April, long enough, referenced and neutral. Earwig picked up a dew websites but it seems like they are copying from the article. The hooks are referenced and interesting. However, "lip sync assassin" should be in quotation mark. All images are free. QPQ done. Corachow (talk) 19:32, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Hi Corachow, and thank you for this review! I'm not too sure whether "lip sync assassin" should be in quotation marks, as it's a standard piece of drag terminology (examples: [6][7][8][9]). It's not usually seen between quotation marks in RS. Armadillopteryx 19:40, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I see. I think you should provide an AlT, just in case. Corachow (talk) 19:44, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Corachow, is the existing ALT1 above acceptable? Armadillopteryx 20:03, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I mean an ALT with "lip sync assassin" in quotation mark. ALT1 seems less interesting in comparison, but I'm fine with that one. Corachow (talk) 20:07, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    ALT2: ... that Kameron Michaels (pictured) has been described as a "lip sync assassin"? Armadillopteryx 20:23, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Thank you, good to go. Corachow (talk) 20:36, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
