Q1: Doesn't Everywhere at the End of Time depict dementia? (Yes, but...)
A1: ... Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia, being the cause of over 60% of dementia cases. The titles of Stage 5 reference Alzheimer's disease symptoms, and Kirby has spoken that the album reflects "specific symptoms which can be common with the progression and advancement of the different forms of Alzheimer's." Simply saying "Alzheimer's disease" rather than "dementia" makes for much more precise wording without sacrifing readability, even if "dementia" is sometimes used to avoid repetition. Q2: Should the album's Internet popularity be demonstrated in the lead section? (Yes.)
A2: Yes. The lead should mention the album's Internet popularity throughout the early 2020s, including the Friday Night Funkin' mod. The TikTok trend was noted by Kirby in several interviews, and it led to the album amassing a much wider public. The FNF mod establishes notability by demonstrating the album's relevance on media other than music, and all this still keeps the lead concise. |

Improved to Good Article status by Wetrorave (talk). Self-nominated at 13:23, 13 July 2021 (UTC).
General: Article is new enough and long enough |

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems |

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation |

QPQ: None required. |
Overall: Nomination's new enough, and everything about the article checks out with flying colors; a very well put together and fascinating read, I must say. Default hook has more of a catching quality to it, so I'd go with that. This is the user's very first DYK nomination, so no QPQ needed. Extra kudos to the nominator for exposing me to this album.

Everywhere, an empty bliss
editEverywhere, an Empty Bliss was released after stage 5 but before stage 6, even though stage 5 and 6 are grouped together. I think they should be separated. 2600:1001:B110:F6C5:494:FCF:A520:853E (talk) 13:33, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- Despite what the Bandcamp release dates may say, Stage 6 and Everywhere, an empty bliss were released on the same day. It's something that has been discussed in-depth on the Caretaker Discord channel but nobody really knows why albums released on the same day from the same artist on Bandcamp are listed as being [in most cases] 1 day apart, or [in this case] a lot further apart.

First note is wrong?
editThe name in the YouTube release doesn't appear to be sentence case (Everywhere at the end of time) but rather start case (Everywhere At The End Of Time) --Gert7 (talk · contribs) 18:45, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
- You're right. However, the YouTube release is the only release that displays start case other than Boomkat, which already has its own differences from the original. The LEITER release and the Bandcamp release both use sentence case. (The LEITER release is the one which went to all major streaming platforms, including YouTube Music, and features sentence case.) The version in the article title and first sentence should indeed be changed since they adopt neither format and instead use start case except for minor words such as 'at,' 'the,' and 'of.'

The opening sentence of the article is unclear
editI know this may seem like a minor complaint, but according to Google Dictionary, a recording in the context of this article can both mean "a recorded broadcast or performance" or "a disc or tape on which sounds or visual images have been recorded." If one states that Everywhere at the end of time is the 11th recording by The Caretaker, then they are wrong because Everywhere at the end of time is The Caretaker's fifteenth recording, and An empty bliss beyond this World is The Caretaker's actual eleventh recording. The article fails to take into account the existence of Recollected memories from the museum of garden history, Recollections from old London town, FACT Mix 45 / The Caretaker and the BBC Radio 6 Guest Mix, which are all recognized as official recordings by [3]https://thecaretaker.fandom.com/wiki/The_Caretaker_Wiki]. To avoid confusion, this should be changed from 'recording' to 'album' or changed to something like:
"Everywhere at the End of Time (commonly shortened to EATEOT) is the eleventh album* and fifteenth recording by the Caretaker, an alias of English electronic musician Leyland Kirby."
I understand that that level of specificity is not necessarily needed, but I would at least like to know what qualifies as a 'recording' and why this nomenclature is not consistent with other album pages such as the one for "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band":
"Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is the eighth studio album by the English rock band the Beatles."
or the page for "HIT ME HARD AND SOFT":
"Hit Me Hard and Soft is the third studio album by American singer-songwriter Billie Eilish, released on May 17, 2024, through Darkroom and Interscope Records."
Thanks!
- From the asterisk: I am not sure whether Everywhere qualifies as a studio album or not since all samples used in the album series were recorded beforehand outside the "studio" of The Caretaker.
