It's Time to Stop

Hey, do you all see the top of the talk page ( Specifically, Mjblackadarr (talk · contribs), Tlw225 (talk · contribs), Charliexperienz (talk · contribs))? It says "This is the talk page for discussing improvements to the Dan Howell article. This is not a forum for general discussion of the article's subject." And in the talk page guidelines it says this, "Stay on topic: Talk pages are for discussing the article, not for general conversation about the article's subject (much less other subjects). Keep discussions focused on how to improve the article. If you want to discuss the subject of an article, you can do so at Wikipedia:Reference desk instead. Comments that are plainly irrelevant are subject to archival or removal." Wikipedia's an archive of information, not fangirling/fanboying. If you want to do that, Wikipedia does have this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk . I get it if you're new, but please try to use Wikipedia properly. Danke! {{SUBST:JackOfTrades1776}} (talk) 15:39, 3 January 2017 (UTC)

Phil Lester

Philip Michael Lester is Dan Howell's best friend and alleged boyfriend. Many fans believe and have come up with proof as to how these two may in fact be a couple Tlw225 (talk) 14:57, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

dan and phil are husbands, even disney confirmed it Charliexperienz (talk) 14:11, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

There is no proven fact that they are together Annabellewiki (talk) 22:02, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

April 2017 Move

They have since announced their move to a duplex apartment in London. Flyingbasilisk (talk) 00:03, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Name change (from Dan Howell to Daniel Howell)?

I would like to request that this page be moved from "Dan Howell" to "Daniel Howell", after the announcement of Daniel retiring the name "danisnotonfire" ([1]). Although the main video dealt mainly with the "danisnotonfire" name, within the video, he also states that the change would be to "Daniel Howell" and not "Dan Howell", due to the reasons stated within the video. As I am not too sure about this, should this page be renamed to "Daniel Howell"?

For now, I will change the infobox at the top to say "Daniel Howell" instead of "danisnotonfire", and add some information about the name change. Alex Tenshi (talk) 08:05, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

In videos since that he has still gone by Dan. He mainly goes by Dan, but would be okay with Daniel. Anybody looking him up on Wiki would most likely search 'Dan Howell'. CorrectYourMistakes (talk) 13:58, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
And Dan Howell redirects here. —C.Fred (talk) 18:37, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

wrong channel name

97.103.28.140 (talk) 19:40, 3 May 2017 (UTC)

i just thought i should inform you that his channel name is no longer 'danisnotonfire' as it is now 'Daniel Howell' i look forward to that being changed

Partly done: If you're referring to the infobox stating "danisnotonfire", from what I can tell with the template, this shouldn't be changed as it is a link to the channel, and since he channel link didn't change (like Daniel said in the video, he only changed the display name, while danisnotonfire is still the actual channel name), there's no need to change it. If you're referring to the body, this has already been done.

Please change 'Associated acts Phil Lester' to Spouse Phil Lester' (˜˜˜˜). Reliable sources: EVERY SINGLE ONE OF HIS SUBSCRIBERS! Phan9000 (talk) 15:08, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Please read Identifying reliable sources to see why "..every single one of his subscribers" is not considered a reliable source. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 15:17, 31 October 2017 (UTC)

Young Minds

I feel like it should be noted that after releasing his video detailing on his struggle with depression, Dan has become an ambassador for the charity Young Minds. Link here: [[2]] 108.31.120.44 (talk) 21:26, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

Remove nickname "Dan". He doesn't want to be called Dan anymore, just Daniel. Jamestmiles2005 (talk) 07:19, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

 Not done: It is generally not up to the people themselves to decide their nicknames. Most of his usernames still utelise "Dan". Additionally, would need a source. — IVORK Discuss 22:13, 5 March 2018 (UTC)

“Dan” shouldn’t be removed since that is what his mutuals address him as. In a live show he said he’ll always be Dan to us and there was no reason to start calling him Daniel just because of the channel name. Izzymendoza 714 (talk) 21:58, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
