Talk:Junlper

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is the lowest I’ve seen Wikipedia administratiors go in my years of being on this site.

[edit]

This page has no dignity, no significance. It’s talking about “snickers dick veins” and “goblin mode” in relation to a moderately sized at best “shitposting” account. What are we even doing here — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sussywussy (talkcontribs)

"Wikipedia administrators" didn't make this page, and the 30+ sources would indicate it has more than "no significance". We get it, you WP:JUSTDONTLIKEIT. glman (talk) 13:54, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A good half of the sources in question: Twitter posts Sussywussy (talk) 20:04, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Please see the FAQ. As far as Twitter/Bsky posts go, most of these fall under WP:ABOUTSELF. 🌸⁠wasianpower⁠🌸 (talk • contribs) 20:36, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I count 7 out of 34 being social media (twitter or bluesky). If that's a good half I dread to think what a bad half would be. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 20:53, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Every so often people come here to complain "I never heard of her" and I think "Yeah, but you found this article somehow? Funny that..." --DanielRigal (talk) 21:11, 6 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
It may have something to do with the fact that people reach this article specifically because the person it talks about is so irrelevant. Vamlov (talk) 09:15, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Your edit summary mentions Administrators yet I don't see what they have to do with this. Doug Weller talk 09:52, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
It's still a literal who, whose only claim to fame is a banal hoax about snickers and a term nobody uses. Pipkin Pippa doesn't have a page and if I made one it would (rightfully) be deleted despite having more subscribers than Junlper has followers The fastest was (talk) 18:50, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
I'm interested to know why there has been an upswing in people complaining about this article. Can you tell us what drew your attention to it? (To be clear, I'm not suggesting that you have done anything wrong. I just want to know why this is showing up on people's radar all of a sudden.) DanielRigal (talk) 19:34, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
Not OP but I saw a post or two up on Twitter over the weekend about "how is this an article", both of which got a bit of traction. I'd wager a strong guess as to that being why. ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 19:37, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
It got a bit popular on Twitter due to being a possible notability. Also due to the person being considered a "lolcow" on Twitter many though it was a self insert. While it does not seem to be the case, it does seem to be a notability The fastest was (talk) 20:33, 7 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
To save a lot of pointless arguing and to clamp down on promotional fluff, Wikipedia editors outsource the decision about what articles should exist. Instead of pointless arguments among ourselves ("Yes, this article should exist", "No, it shouldn't"), articles are kept if the topic is "notable" (defined at WP:N). The result is that articles are kept if independent and reliable sources have reported the topic. Arguments then center around the kinds of sources and exactly how many are needed.

Why is this a thing?

[edit]

I've gone to restaurants where the head chef had more notability than this person. ~2026-61315 (talk) 03:04, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Please see the FAQ. 🌸⁠wasianpower⁠🌸 (talk • contribs) 03:06, 4 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
The FAQ fails to answer his response. Simply lacking followers doesn't mean an account can't be on Wikipedia if it's notable enough but Juniper has neither a large enough follower account to warrant it nor is known enough outside of a small sub-community which you happen to be apart of. Vamlov (talk) 09:21, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Vamlov, literally the first line of the FAQ: Wikipedia has a set of policies to determine whether a topic is notable enough for an article, the most general of which concerns the extent of coverage in reliable sources (emphasis added). Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 09:52, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Cakelot1 The FAQ is poorly written and answers 3 questions. It's also buried in an incorrect area and the links you keep posting to it do not lead there. Redatlas (talk) 19:46, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
It's also buried in an incorrect area (emphasis added): Not as far as I can see (It's in an {{FAQ}} banner with the other talk page banners, which is the standard place). the links you keep posting to it do not lead there: The only place I can see that I've directly linked to it is the section directly bellow this one and on both occasions the link resolves to the correct page (Talk:Junlper/FAQ). I suppose it may be some problem on mobile[?] The FAQ is poorly written: you're welcome to edit it for clarity if you wish (although in the comment you're responding to I did excerpt and highlight the point which dealt with the question that was asked). Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 20:07, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@Vamlov which small subcommunity is that? Doug Weller talk 09:54, 5 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Real name usage

[edit]

This article uses "Junlper" more than her real name, compared to other similar articles such as Phillip Buchanan (Catturd) and Paul Dochney (Dril). (see also articles on Youtubers) Is it warranted to change most mentions of "Junlper" to "Sternbach"? GarethBaloney (talk) 13:24, 16 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah if they're arguing this person has an notability based on sources, we should be using the real name. JonathanMRosenberg (talk) 22:25, 16 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
This is not, by itself, a persuasive argument any more than it would be to suggest that we should update our Elton John article to refer to him as Reg Dwight throughout just because that is his real name. What would make the difference would be if the sources shifted to using her real name more. (Not that it is relevant here, but I would expect both Catturd and Dril to be similar in this respect.) DanielRigal (talk) 23:01, 16 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
? You just scolded me for bringing up other users as an example of an argument. So why bring up Catturd and Dril?
You seem very defensive of this person. I don't think that Wikipedia should host fanpages for very niche internet celebrities who have small but very dedictaed fanbases. That seems to violate the purpose of an encyclopedia. JonathanMRosenberg (talk) 23:43, 16 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
OK. Let me make this clear. This page is for discussing the article, which you can do if you want to. If you have a problem with Wikipedia at a more general level then please either drop it or take it to a more appropriate page. If you have a problem with Junlper herself then please keep that off Wikipedia. If you are just trying to start an argument then please don't. You had your say on the AfD. It wasn't persuasive. If you think this article is a waste of time then it would be more productive, and probably more enjoyable, for you to find one that is more to your tastes and work on that instead. It doesn't sound like there is anything for you here. --DanielRigal (talk) 00:40, 17 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. Doug Weller talk 09:59, 17 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
The problem is that the majority voted to remove this page during the AfD, and it was overruled by the admins. Whether the argument was persuasive or not is subjective, but the fact that the majority of people on and off Wikipedia find its existence ridiculous is not. JonathanMRosenberg (talk) 14:36, 18 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
If any uninvolved Administrator (or anybody else) wants to use their corrupt, evil and extremely scary powers to roll this nonsense up... DanielRigal (talk) 14:55, 18 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Majority of sources reference topic, not listed individual.

Many of the references used in this article are discussing the 2 events that are used to prop up the notability requirement for this individual.

Should it not be that we have simply the 2 articles for these 2 events rather than a page that allows for lots of autobiographical inserts. (reads alot like an autobiographical article; 4 accounts monopolize discussions here and pretend to have authority over article - smells like sockpuppet) Redatlas (talk) 20:03, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Go file an SPI if you want to. I've got popcorn. But seriously though, don't. You should not make accusations of sockpuppetry without evidence and the admins have got enough genuine SPI reports to deal with without people adding bogus ones. --DanielRigal (talk) 20:06, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
@DanielRigal I'm not sure why you bothered replying honestly. A complete non-statement with overtly defensive posturing. Redatlas (talk) 20:11, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
So you think you can make baseless accusations but you are surprised when people reply to them to tell you that they are baseless? If you think you have evidence of sockpuppetry (which you don't) then file an SPI. If you know that you don't have evidence of sockpupetry, or even reason for suspicion, then please pack it in with the baseless acusations. --DanielRigal (talk) 20:19, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Well you are making unsubstantiated claims of socking based on ??? Vibes? That you don't like the article? Hardly assuming good faith. As DanielRigal says if you do have evidence WP:SPI is that way. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 20:19, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
I hate this article, I think it shouldn't exist because of weak sources, and I also hate Junlper's political views. At the same time, please WP:AGF. I know most of the editors you're talking about and they are definitely not sockpuppets. aesurias (ping me in your reply, or I won't see it) (talk) 20:28, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
