I'm just bringing this here because I can't think any other place to place this. I'm not moving Companions of the Prophet   5 as I did for Rashidun   5, The ten to whom Paradise was promised   5, Ahl al-Bayt   5, and Wives of Muhammad   5. Unlike the others, I feel like the definition of being a member of this group is too broad to be moved to people. SailorGardevoir (talk) 09:46, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

I would love to have the parent article of this guy, but his page is a borderline disambiguation one. Swap him out with the two most important forms of this deity. (Mithra is the one that the Mithraists worship, while Maitreya is a central figure in Buddhist eschatology.)

Lwa is the category of deities/spirits in Vodou that includes Baron Samedi. BS was randomly added by me years ago. I was familiar with the name from some movie, but I'm not an expert to know if it's vital enough to keep on the list as an example of lwa.

Well known creature. Popular throughout South Asia and Southeast Asia. I'm kind of shocked that Penanggalan and to a lesser extent Rakshasa   5 got picked over this. (Regarding its potential placement, I'm not sure if they should be placed under dragons or just be a separate entry. The original Indian are just half-snake, half-human beings, but it does seem like the Southeastern versions of the Nāga have acquired a lot dragon-like traits.)

Heralded within the newly constructed The Crystal Palace, millions of people visited the world's fair. This venue served as a showcase for the pioneering innovations of the First Industrial Revolution, namely the Hydraulic press, Steam engine   3, and Spinning machine.

Add Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

I get we already list Metal Gear   5 and Metal Gear Solid (1998 video game)   5, but Sons of Liberty is a league of its own for completely different reasons than those two. It completely changed the ways video games told stories, and it did so through political themes that went on to make it possibly the most analyzed video game in history (and one look at the themes and analysis section will prove that). These themes especially gained prominence in the 2010s and 2020s, since this game basically predicted them and is still considered a politically relevant game (so, to a certain extent, RECENTISM doesn't apply here). It is believed to have heavily influenced the vital BioShock   5 and Portal (video game)   5, and is considered a reason the PlayStation 2   5 became the best selling video game console of all time. It was even included as part of the final exhibition for The Art of Video Games, so while the article doesn't specifically state it is, this game could be considered a representation on this list for video games as an art form. I'd say this is a more influential video game than the aforementioned BioShock and Portal, and is absolutely worthy of V5.

    I don't doubt your justifications for how this is an important video game, but still I would be wary of adding a sequel video game. Maybe as a swap with some other video game I could reconsider. Also, I would choose some other example of an art video game that's not a franchise title. Makkool (talk) 15:21, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

  3. I'm extremely averse to having video game subentries, because A) they overlap with the parent franchise and I generally prefer breadth over depth (for example, maybe we should add Fate/stay night because we have no Visual novel   5 listed yet), and B) I'm afraid of a slippery slope and I think the existing subentries have already set a bad precedent.--LaukkuTheGreit (Talk•Contribs) 07:45, 19 June 2024 (UTC)

Swap: Remove The Legend of Zelda (video game)  5, add Stardew Valley

I foresee some opposition here, so let me explain.

First, removing the original Zelda. While it is pretty popular, I'm not sure if Zelda warrants three subentries. Of the three, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time   5 is the one that I would cut last. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild   5 arguably has had enough of an impact on the games that have come out since, including the likes of Genshin Impact and Elden Ring, to stay on the list. That leaves the original, which I feel can have its impact mostly covered by the series article. It helped create the Action role-playing game   5 subgenre, but the rest of the game's impact mostly boils down to starting the series, which can be covered by the series. Besides, we need less subentries.

Now for the addition. I do not believe we currently include any farming simulators, and non-racing simulators in generally are mostly covered by just The Sims   5. We also have only Minecraft   5 for the Indie game   5 scene, and Minecraft barely counts anymore after the Microsoft purchase. Stardew Valley fits in both, and is also one of the best-selling video games of all time, as well as being considered one of the greatest. The game brought farming simulators from the minor, forgotten subgenre it was before to the indie behemoth it is today.

In summary, both games had a major impact on their genre, and both games are considered among the greatest, but Zelda is one of four listings for the series while Stardew Valley sold many more copies and adds more variety to the list. If you only support the addition or the removal, that is fine, but I think both would be good changes to the list.

    Noting for the record that I oppose removing Breath of the Wild since it had more of an impact than just starting the Zelda series. If there is not a consensus to remove the first Zelda, I would be fine with a straight add. QuicoleJR (talk) 18:47, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    I'd like to point out that Zelda 1986 had a larger impact than just starting the franchise. It promoted non-linear gameplay and using the fantasy genre in Japanese console games. The article has an extensive "Legacy" section to indicate this. BotW is indeed innovative, but it's only a 7 years old game, so too recent. Makkool (talk) 19:46, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    I'll go neutral on the Zelda removal for now, although I still think we should keep BOTW. What are your thoughts on the addition? QuicoleJR (talk) 19:53, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    I wouldn't oppose it. I'm a bit sceptical, if it will pass. We recently voted to remove Undertale, which is also a recent indie game that's critically and commercially successful. Makkool (talk) 20:00, 21 June 2024 (UTC)

  1. I would add FNAF to represent indie games due to its cultural impact, but it recently failed and could be considered recentism. Vileplume 🍋‍🟩 (talk) 20:21, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    The main reason I picked Stardew Valley is because it had more than just cultural impact. Most other options did not have the impact on the gaming industry that Stardew Valley did. It also has the bonus of being one of the best-selling games of all time and one of the greatest. Most other options for indie game listings, like FNaF, are just really popular, which doesn't cut it. QuicoleJR (talk) 20:26, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    FNAF has had little to no actual impact on the indie game scene beyond a cult following and being a successful franchise. There's very few indie games I feel like are worthy of V5, though Stardew might be one of them. I'll add that I think Papers, Please would be worthy of V5 as well, since it would be an example of Video games as an art form. Maybe as a separate proposal. λ NegativeMP1 20:36, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
    I would support re-including Papers Please. I distantly remember that it's been on the list years ago. Makkool (talk) 06:08, 22 June 2024 (UTC)
  2. I want to take this opportunity of discussing indie game representation on this list to bring up a list I made a while ago for what I view to be the most important indie games, the "indie game canon" as I named it. This list was obviously made by me and my own opinions (though I did my best to try and make it objective), but if anyone is opposed to Stardew Valley's inclusion (which I'm on the fence about myself), then I think Tier 1 and 2 on this list are good places to start for different options for indie representation. λ NegativeMP1 01:07, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

I will admit, I’ve been going overboard with my specific musical works suggestion, so this is going to be my last one for the time being. It is sort of weird to nominate something that’s not representative of the artist usual work (of Outkast’s possible vital works that are, you know, hip-hop, it’s either “B.O.B” or Aquemini), but this song is still being praised to high-heaven as being one of the greatest songs ever made. It was already noticeable for being the youngest song to appear on the Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time when it was ranked at #182; the newest version has this at #10. To make up for my lack of swaps in my proposals, I volunteer “Crazy in Love” for removal, as that song came out the same year as this.

The "Electronic" section of "Modern Music" is surprisingly shallow. Only 3 recordings compared to Hip-Hop (13) and Pop (23). We even list two electronic musicians at VA4: Brian Eno   4, and Kraftwerk   4.

This suggestion is going off the philosophy of NegativeMP1's philosophy where "nearly all subjects at Vital 4 should have at least one subtopic at Vital 5" (see quote here). We currently list three recordings: Trans-Europe Express (album)   5, Discovery (Daft Punk album)   5, and Blue Monday (New Order song)   5. They are all reasonably vital (maybe you could argue that the last one isn't vital enough cause New Order (band) isn't vital). Eno is subjected to at least one album, given that Kraftwerk   4 has one. So we should select the album that people say "defined" the ambient genre. I would also argue that Aphex Twin   5's Selected Ambient Works 85–92 can also be added. But for right now, we should start here.

We have three hip-hop songs: Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang   5, The Message (Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five song)   5, and Rapper's Delight   5. I think we can add one more. Fuck tha Police is probably one of the most controversial hip-hop songs, with it getting a letter from the FBI and extensive media attention. The article definitely needs some work, but I think the song is important enough to be added and has a lasting legacy. We can swap with Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang   5 if necessary.

  4. Support addition. Will also support a swap with Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang if needed. I do think that this is a case of a track being just as vital as its parent album. SailorGardevoir (talk) 07:17, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

  1. Other than the name being famous and the controversy, I think Straight Outta Compton as a whole is probably further up there. If you want to swap Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang   5) with an individual song, I think the best pick may be Gangsta's Paradise. Iostn (talk) 12:22, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
    I don't think Gangsta's Paradise would be a good swap. The song is just a one-hit wonder (we don't even list Coolio as vital). The song being best-selling does add some merit to be vital. I don't think it'll be good enough for a swap, but could be added (weak support from me).
    If we want to swap, maybe we could do Fight the Power (Public Enemy song). It's not as big as Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang or Fuck the Police, but it has a bunch of accolades (#2 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time is a big one). 49p (talk) 15:25, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Swap: Add The Rose of Versailles, remove Cardcaptor Sakura

Latest comment: 4 months ago4 comments3 people in discussion

The former is decades older and has better claims of vitality, and they have sold a similar amount. Cardcaptor Sakura feels a somewhat questionable inclusion to me, seeming not quite popular/acclaimed/influential/famous enough to be preferred over something like Berserk (manga) or even Monster (manga) (which are scored into the top 10 of various manga sites by their users).

(I initially thought about replacing Cardcaptor with Berserk but eventually decided on a shoujo-shoujo swap, and I'm wondering a bit whether some of Berserk's vitality claims might be too inspired by the 2021 death of its author.)

Since my attempt to remove "We Are the Champions” failed, I am now advocating for the addition of "We Will Rock You". Again, I don't think you can choose one song over the other; these songs are almost always played back to back.

  3. I'd argue that WWRY is the most well-known song in the Western world (outside of your Happy Birthday's and children's music and Christmas music and all that stuff), but as Makkool and NegativeMP1 have pointed out, this section is getting too big. IMO, instead of adding WWRY, WAtC should be replaced with News of the World, arguably Queen's most well known album, and the album that contains both of these songs (not to mention NotW gets more pageviews than either of these songs).

Discuss
  1. I fully agree that this song is V5 worthy, but per above comments, artists and associated works is an extremely bloated area and its making me hesitant to support an addition without super good reasoning. If we can have five or six different albums from The Beatles   3, I think we can have a third song from Queen (band)   4. On the other hand though, music could probably use a full cleanup, like what we just did video games. λ NegativeMP1 02:02, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Gedenkdienst is a rather confusing article that can't seem to decide if its about Austria's Holocaust memorial organization or a specific phrase, but either way there isn't really anything here that seems to suggest its as important as say, United States Holocaust Memorial Museum   5, and the pageviews are very low for VA5 as well.

Remove Slalom skateboarding and Street luge

Skateboarding   4 has five subsections. That's a bit too much in my opinion. Skateboarding should have only three subsection: vert, freestyle, and street. They're all different, but three distinct styles that are the most common in skateboarding.

Slalom skateboarding isn't that vital, in fact it gets the lowest page views from these five. I don't think this is a controversial removal. It's definitely known and has some competitions but it didn't really define one of the style of skateboarding (it was one of the first competitions that was made for skateboarding, but didn't grow much after that). Street luge is that one fun thing you want to do as a kid and pray your fingers don't get chopped from the wheels of your skateboard. Other than being dangerous, it didn't really influence skateboarding or is vital at all. It did have some time of being a sport for X Games   5, but it was removed after some time.

Old Nubian is the oldest written non-Afroasiatic african language and is the most famous member of the Nubian languages. Adding another language like this would increase the number of language families represented in the vital article list which in my opinion is something valueable. The kingdom of Makuria (in which Old Nubian was spoken) is also already a level 5 article, so I don't see any historical reason why this isn't significant enough.

There was some indication to remove this instead of Asteroids (video game)   5 in an earlier proposal of mine. With that and Space Invaders   5 already listed, I think arcade-era shooters may be slightly overrepresented. Galaga's contributions/influence seem iterative rather than revolutionary; it's acclaimed, yes, but we've already removed games for mere acclaim (like the more famous Planescape: Torment and Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (video game)). It has references in pop culture, but that either doesn't convince me it deserves to be listed ahead of the likes of Prince of Persia, Diablo (series), Fate/stay night, Ace Attorney...

I think we can squeeze in one more hip-hop album. Paul's Boutique influenced hip-hop production and overall the golden age of hip-hop. With the lead saying it sometimes referred as the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band   4 of hip-hop," I think this is a reasonably add.

If we get this added and Fuck Tha Police (discussion here), I think the hip-hop and rap section of modern music would be good enough to be "complete." Not much to add really from this genre IMO other than maybe Fight the Power (Public Enemy song)

You know who needs representation? Tupac Shakur   4. He's the only rapper we have at level 4 (although thankfully it looks like Run-DMC will be joining him soon) and we don't have any music from him listed. You know what else needs representation? Diss tracks. Whether they should or not, they play a major role in the hip-hop scene, as evidenced by this year with tracks like "Not Like Us" getting released. That's why out of all of 2Pac's music, I'm nominating "Hit 'Em Up". The epitome of the East Coast–West Coast hip hop rivalry, this has frequently been cited as one of the greatest diss tracks of all time, and also one of the most vicious as well. Rated high-importance on the Hip-Hop Wikiproject.

(We should also make diss (music) vital as well.)

  1. Oppose both. Diss tracks feel a bit niche topic to consider vital. A song at V5 shouldn't have this narrow scope, so I wouldn't oppose something else from Tupac that had wider cultural impact. Makkool (talk) 21:19, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
    I would not be calling diss tracks too niche. They have played a major part in hip-hop since 1984 with the release of "Roxanne's Revenge". That's forty years of "being a niche". It has certainly lasted longer than Beatboxing   5, whose cultural relevance did not made it to the 90s. (NOTE: This is not an advocacy for removing beatboxing.) Also, while it is primarily associated with rap music, technically speaking any artist can release a diss track. "How Do You Sleep? (John Lennon song)" and "Bad Blood (Taylor Swift song)" are prominent examples of diss tracks that aren't hip-hop songs (Kendrick being a featured artist in the remix of the latter notwithstanding.) SailorGardevoir (talk) 21:57, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
    And this isn't even getting into how some of the biggest songs of the year so far are diss tracks, specifically Euphoria (Kendrick Lamar song) and especially Not Like Us. I can't see how diss tracks are "niche", they are very much relevant. λ NegativeMP1 02:55, 6 July 2024 (UTC)

    I guess the main difference is that the audience can see prosthetic makeup as it is applied, whereas craft service is more of a backstage thing that readers are less likely to care about. But point taken regarding this being relatively niche among film topics compared to what we currently list. feminist🩸 (talk) 11:48, 11 March 2024 (UTC)

  3. I hesitate to agree that "an extremely widespread social system" is automatically grounds for vitality inclusion. Patriarchy is a term that can be applied to many social systems, but it's one of many terms; it's similar to, say, Capitalism   3 or Democracy   3 in this regard. Not all such terms which can be used to describe "extremely widespread" phenomena are vital.

Add Superpower  5, Great power  5, and Middle power to Politics under Political Science, or something similar.

Superpower describes a state or supranational union that holds a dominant position characterized by the ability to exert influence or project power on a global scale. A great power is a sovereign state that is recognized as having the ability and expertise to exert its influence on a global scale. A Middle power is a state that is not a superpower or a great power, but still exerts influence and plays a significant role in international relations. These three concepts are used very often to describe countries in geopolitical discussions, which most of you are probably familiar with. All three pages are   class articles. Superpower has 1,075 daily average page views, Great power has 885 Daily average page views, and Middle power has 481. While page views aren't the only metric to use, this does show the pages do get some attention.GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 18:21, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Discuss

@The Blue Rider:, I know that page views are not the best metric for importance, but regional power has an average of 168 daily page views compared to the 481 for Middle power linked above. This made me think that Middle power was the more popular term. Do you have a source on this? Also, a regional power can include great powers and middle powers in my understanding, so the two terms are not synonyms. What defines a regional power will depend on the relative power of the region it is in. Therefore, this could be "both" situation rather then "either-or," and we could try to get both regional and middle power listed. Do you have a source for which one is "more commonly used" in international relations?GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 19:59, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

My source is my International Relations' bachelor's; from the literature I have read, regional power is used more often than middle power. Google Ngram agrees with me as well. The Blue Rider   12:59, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
I'll remember Google Ngram as a source for this! Thanks for responding! I have a minor in national security, and wrote a term paper on "Middle powers" back during undergrad. As one of the only geographers in the course, I was focused on the "super power", "great power", "middle power", and "Small powers." My career has taken me far from this area of study, so I'm not exactly an expert.
I would argue based on what I'm seeing now that the "powers" I listed are based on global influence, while "regional power" would be local geographic. A power like China, (Which is debatably a superpower, and obviously a great power), is more of a "regional power" in terms of military. Thus, a country can be both a middle power and regional power, or a middle power but not a major regional power, such as the situation with Canada where they are overshadowed in many ways by their neighbor to the south. I'm not really married to that opinion though. We may need to consider adding the page Power (international relations). GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 18:18, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
Most academics argue that world is now multipolar, the United States is losing its status as the sole superpower, China and European Union are ascending to the ranking of superpower. That seems like a good suggestion, there are plenty of other important topics missing from International Relations: hard power, soft power, smart power, realism (international relations), Idealism in international relations, Constructivism (international relations), realpolitik, among many others. The Blue Rider   18:37, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
  • On the subject of middle powers, should we remove all countries from V3 that do not fall into at least that category? Is the DRC vital for more than just population? Vileplume 🍋‍🟩 (talk) 01:22, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
    • I would not feel comfortable weighing in on that question one way or the other, that is quite the debate. Just clearly defining what countries are true "Middle Powers" is beyond the literature I'm aware of on the topic, which is admi. Nobody even agrees what the superpowers are, or the great powers (check the talk pages, even with sources people will fight tooth an nail over who they think should or should not be included). It could also be argued that a country is vital for more reasons then it's ability to influence geopolitics on the global stage, and that millions of people with a unique culture and government are "vital." On the DRC, the Wikipedia page notes that "The DRC is widely considered one of the world's richest countries in natural resources; its untapped deposits of raw minerals are estimated to be worth in excess of US$24 trillion. The DRC has 70% of the world's coltan, a third of its cobalt, more than 30% of its diamond reserves, and a tenth of its copper." I suspect most countries have stuff that jumps out like this that would make them "vital" to understanding geopolitics. I would likely set something like "The top 100 by population, top 100 by GDP, top 100 by land area, and all states with nuclear weapons can be included as "V3"" if I was going to have an actual rule for how to sort inclusion of countries. You could adjust the numbers if you want, but I bet that would get you slightly around 120 of the 195 countries. I don't have much of a strong opinion on this though.
    GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 05:46, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
    I would support a few more countries at V3, namely Iraq, Peru, Afghanistan, Morocco, and possibly Austria, but I'd prefer regions over some mid-sized countries, such as Scandinavia   4 instead of Sweden, definitely the Balkans   4 instead of Romania or Greece, Central America   4 instead of Guatemala, Central Asia   4 instead of Kazakhstan, etc. My main priority for V3 is adding more cities.
