'with most Britons aware of who he is.'

This has no source and is demonstrably untrue, as anyone who has talked to the average British person would know. Just because Andrew is well-known on the internet does not mean he is known by "most" of British public. Remove this line and replace the comma with a period. 82.38.200.45 (talk) 10:15, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

It's from YouGov survey, referenced in Reception section of Views and influence.
"Pollsters discovered 63 per cent of British adults have heard of Tate" [1] "In the UK, 63% of Brits are familiar with Andrew Tate." [2]

I'm a Brit, and did not know who Andrew Tate was until recently. So I looked him up on Wikipedia, and what I noticed most of all was that you can tell the opinion of the editors from the article. Sadly this is becoming increasingly the case on Wikipedia because of the skewed demographics of the editors. This should not be a Good Article. Geometry guy 20:59, 22 April 2024 (UTC)

You can nominate it for reassessment at WP:GAR if you think this doesn't fit the Good Article criteria. The source attached to the statement writes that 93% of polled British adults were aware of who he is, which would probably be enough to say that "most British adults have heard of him". I do question how due this line is in the article's lead, but it's otherwise well sourced. Askarion 23:13, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
Doesn't that just mean that 93% of British adults who are willing to respond to surveys have heard of Tate? seems like the non-response bias weighs in his favor, although the survivorship bias goes the other way here... theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 08:19, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
The source that The Independent is citing (YouGov) confirms these numbers but interestingly does not expand on them; most of the poll is about how favorable he is among pollsters, not how known he is. In all, I'm not British so I wouldn't know for sure how known he is there, and I don't particularly care about this inclusion in the article either way. Askarion 13:59, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
