Can you submit this page already, i added all that i can. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohsnapitsjackiee (talk • contribs) 06:37, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The page is in place, improvements are welcome. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 04:54, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with you that adding references is important. Remember that using the IMDb as a source is not always appropriate; see Wikipedia:Citing IMDb. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 04:54, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a reference for the The Adam Carolla Show.^[1] I don't know if anything interesting was said during the episode, because a subscription is required to listen to the show (which I don't have), so I'm just dumping the reference here. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 11:54, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I can use your information and resource's to start a new page if that's okay. -MegaHL90 — Preceding undated comment added 05:39, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I don't think there's anything relevant in there that's not already in the article. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 04:54, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

While this article is not semi-protected itself, my request is related to a page that is in essence semi-protected, because as an IP editor I'm unable to edit it. I would like the previously deletedSHAY

ShayCarl to redirect to this article. That's the request. As a side note, several other previously deleted pages exist that could also be forwarded to this article because they are about Shay Carl or his "ShayTards" YouTube channel, namely Shay Butler, Shay butler, Shaycarl, Shay carl, SHAYTARDS, Shaytards, ShayTards and Shay Tards. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 15:18, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: So many redirects doesn't seem like a good idea. -- TOW  11:42, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I clearly wrote "I would like the previously deleted ShayCarl to redirect to this article. That's the request." and then continued "As a side note, [...]" Again, my request is about just one redirect. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 11:55, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done already by another user. -- TOW  13:50, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) Partly done: I've added all the redirects I can as Redirects are cheap. Those I haven't added (redlinked above) have been salted, ie prevented from re-creation by non-administrators. Following 82.170.113.123's logic, I've changed this edit semi-protected request to an edit protected request to solicit admin attention. Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 13:53, 23 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Having the redirects can't hurt now that the article seems set to stick around. — Mr. Stradivarius ^{♪ talk ♪} 12:24, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. --82.170.113.123 (talk) 13:05, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The narrative, coverage, cites are all within parameters. EBY (talk) 18:35, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Correction. "BroTard" is Daxton, not Daxon. RE: Video "The Happiest State of Human Existance" timestamp 8:18.

'Brotards' name is Daxton Charles Butler. Sanders is NOT correct

(I can prove this by looking 45:00 minutes into the vlog about the baby's birth and the card above his head says 'SANDERS').

• No, Sanders is incorrect because at 27:08 minutes into the vlog, Princesstard continuously says 'Daxy', and at 39:00 you can hear Colette says "It's baby Daxton" in the background. Sanders is most likely the Doctors name.*— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jessegirl147 (talk • contribs) 03:31, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

PT does constantly say Daxon/Daxton ,...... But this could be some sort of stunt ? ..... -

I'd rather wait till they actually announce it. →Davey2010→→Talk to me!→ 21:17, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• • • on one of the vlogs at 8:18 there is a chart on the wall that says "baby: Daxton" check @brotardbutler5 on instagram for the picture or you can look for the vlog. They do say the name many times and sanders is the doctor's name.*** — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.51.221.165 (talk) 01:17, 30 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it's been a long while! Sometime after the original article was removed I took it upon myself to contact an admin to ask if the previous article could be retrieved and moved into my user space. After working on it for a while, I never finished it, and after some time of it sitting untouched, it was noticed by others who picked up where I left off to turn it into the great article that it is today. I want to say thank you to those who helped finish the bulk of the article, and to those who continue to maintain it today. --Aaron McHale (talk) 22:35, 7 April 2014 (UTC);[reply]

This is the edit summary for this edit. "Currently" lacks precision. "Shay" is not how the rest of the article refers to Butler, so for consistency that would need to be Butler. That he has "daily vlogs on the SHAYTARDS and ShayLoss channels" is already in the article. The "Vlogumentary" is also already mentioned, in the lead no less. That he "said in October 2014 that he would like to do less, but create bigger projects" is not notable enough: it is an excessive amount of intricate detail that only interests a specific audience. If you have a reliable, third-party source that mentions his "book", it could be added - although, who isn't working on a book these days; maybe wait until he actually releases something. --82.136.210.153 (talk) 14:49, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I am wondering why Shay Carl was just added to the following categories:

• American Mormon missionaries;
• 20th-century Mormon missionaries;
• Mormon missionaries in Barbados;
• Mormon missionaries in Trinidad and Tobago;
• Mormon missionaries in Guyana ?

When there is no clear reason why Shay Carl should have been added to these categories as Shay Carl completed his missionary work in Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, and Guyana approximately 15 - 18 years ago. Peppypoach (talk) 12:54, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Those categories are not "is currently" - they are reflective of the subject as a whole(you know, having been a mormon missionary in the 20th century 15-18 years ago) -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 01:16, 6 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure if this applies to his other projects, but Shay Carl announced that he was going inactive on his Vlog, due to some controversy. He himself acknowledged drinking issues. In addition, an adult cam model (as I read it), has posted messages he sent her that were of sexual nature, and from what I read, the authenticity of these messages has been verified. Should any of this be mentioned in the article? Cr@$h3d@t@^{t@1k t0 m3} 19:42, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If you can find a third party source and don't violate BLP then sure your can.--Dcheagle • talk • contribs 22:17, 14 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Aria Nina, whose posts started the whole "shaycarl sex scandal," has posted two other claims: (1) that she and shaycarl had sex and (2) that she has two videos of shaycarl masterbating (presumably in an online video chat)... \http://www.clevver.com/aria-nina-tweets-about-sex-with-shay-carl-butler-pregnancy-rumors/ https://twitter.com/arianina_/status/830701725283553281?lang=en

And there have been chats between shaycarl and Aria in which they discuss having sex together in graphic language... https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=6&v=abHWBw-WxYo — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.3.25.247 (talk) 10:04, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
