Why isn't this page listed here? https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=John_Green&redirect=no I went there looking for it and couldn't find him. 192.235.78.16 ( talk) 20:30, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
I made a request to include under the other project section information that John will be donating proceeds from one of his Youtube channels to AFC Wimbledon. This request was refused, citing the fact that including information of football support was not encyclopedic in nature. I must counter that it is very common for English celebrity pages to include their support for clubs, and request this section be returned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.208.150 ( talk) 16:04, 4 November 2013 (UTC)
"The Yeti", John's wife, has not appeared in any VlogBrothers video... The reference links to a video in which John says "I'm Hank", Hank says "I'm John" and Katherine, Hank's wife, says "I'm the Yeti". Obviously they're all kidding. I think that sould be edited because lots of people think that she is Sarah Green. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.202.229.129 ( talk) 14:55, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
Do we really need that quote that already appears on the 'Looking for Alaska' page, and only quotes someone's blog? IF that's the case, can we quote dozens of positive reviews as well? Czolgolz 13:40, 4 February 2007 (UTC)
I didn't know where else to put this as I discovered that the TINT does not have it's own page. Probably the wrong place to put it, but since Hank Green (John's brother) mentioned it, I think this is as good a place as any...
www.thisisnottom.com is an riddle game, where solving the riddle leads to the next page and the next page, and finally to a chapter of a story/life tale of a girl running from what-we don't know, not knowing who she is or what memories she has that are hers. Now, there's also www.thisisnotforums.com where a great amount of discussion about thisisnottom (or TINT for short) has been discussed, but since the majority of nerdfighters know of wiki, I thought it would be easier to make a page here for it.
However, I'm not going to persue to make a page for it and watch it get deleted, so, someone give their opinion on if this would be needed, please? Or, if there is a wiki page... I haven't found it yet, what would I look for?

I would think that Hank Green should be allowed to have his own page, and not keep being deleted. Most of Charles Dickens's children have their own pages, and none of them really did anything of distinction, besides being born with a famous father. Hank Green, on the other hand, is half of Brotherhood 2, which is the biggest video blog project ever. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.1.219.49 ( talk) 17:19, 3 February 2009 (UTC)
In addition, Hank Green has released album, cofounded his own record label, appeared on one of the Discovery Channel... channels (sorry for the awkwardness there) until he was let go. He did blurbs advancing Green Technology. He also has written reviews for the NY Times. That all seems notable enough to warrant his own friggin Wiki page. I mean if William Hung can get one then Hank Green, who actually accomplishes stuff, certainly deserves one. 128.200.138.168 ( talk) 21:23, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
I agree, Hank Green is important enough to merit his own wikipedia page instead of being redirected to this one. He's half of vlogbrothers, he's released his own album, and has decreased overall WorldSuck dramatically. I think that's enough to get a wikipedia article.

I strongly agree. In fact Hank Green is better known in YouTube; John often mentions how Hank is more popular. Apart from all of the accomplishments mentioned above Hank was also featured on YouTube because of his song "Accio Deathly Hallows". There are way less important articles out there; he has definitely accomplished enough to appear on wikipedia. --

I noticed that Anglerfish wasn't Wikilinked, and it may be of use to create a section in order to discuss minutia, since the page is locked (at least for me (perhaps because I am new (but still)))
Another thing is the author of The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald isn't on the "inspired by" list (though it was quoted under the name of the fictional novel, "An Imperial Affliction" in TFIOS), whereas Walt Whitman is (Quoted in Paper Towns).

The article says that the movie is set to be released in 2013, but no reference is given. In 2011 John said this, where he pretty much said it wont be happening because of lack of interest, and the page for Looking For Alaska also confirms this. Could someone remove this?

This addition was made recently including information on what football club John happens to support (financially) this year. This was reverted, with
the editor explaining: it is common practice to include celebrities support of football clubs.
I don't think this is typically common at all, but even if it was, Green's support of certain FCs is not a particularly significant part of his biography because it is largely not discussed in
reliable sources. Just because it happens to come up in one of his YouTube videos does not mean we necessarily need to include it. Does anyone else agree?

The following celebrities' pages list the team that they support:
Samuel L. Jackson, Liverpool FC; Patrick Stewart, Huddersfield Town Academy; Kobe Bryant, Barcelona FC; Drew Carey, Barcelon, Rangers, Seatle Sounders; Daniel Day Lewis, Millwall; Will Ferrell, Chelsea; Sir Richard Attenborough, Chelsea Football Club; Keira Knightly, West Ham United; Lennox Lewis, West Ham United; Daniel Craig, Liverpool FC; Fatboy Slim, Brighton & Hove Albion; Sir Elton John, Watford Football Club; Clive Owen, Liverpool Football Club; HRH Charles, Prince of Whales, Burnley Football Club;
Seeing as this article deals with a popular Vlogger i think it is only fitting to include information of his support for a club, especially since he has stated his financial contribution of the proceeds of one of his Youtube channels. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.208.150 ( talk) 18:31, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

I have been trying to correctly add in a little blurb about SciShow Space under the Vlogbrothers heading of this article, but have been struggling to do so correctly and unintentionally begun "edit warring". I did not mean to do this at all-- I simply wanted to add in SciShow Space to improve the Vlogbrothers section of this article, and to cite my revision correctly so that it may remain in the article.
I was wondering how one would recommend citing this since the only sources that I can find on this particular subject are YouTube videos. Because SciShow Space is a YouTube channel, I haven't been able to find a verifiable source about SciShow Space that is not a YouTube video.
Any help would be much appreciated, and please be aware that I am not trying to cause conflict or blatantly begin a hateful interaction with anyone, whatsoever.

In the sentence "He intended to become an Episcopalian minister, but his experiences of working in a hospital with children suffering from life-threatening illnesses inspired him become an author, and later to write The Fault in Our Stars.[5]" "...inspired him become an author, ..." should be replaced with "...inspired him to become an author ...".

Please italicise the novel title Looking for Alaska in the article lead. 31.185.150.19 ( talk) 13:34, 25 June 2013 (UTC)
Coverage, narrative, tone, and number of cites all within parameters. Some of the cites don't meet WP:RS, or aren't complete. EBY ( talk) 18:18, 26 July 2013 (UTC)
Is ther any reason that this page should be protected since 2010? I want to contribute to update the article with recent information, but alas it seems I can't. 222.165.10.84 ( talk) 16:02, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
This addition was made recently including information on what football club John happens to support (financially) this year. This was reverted, with
the editor explaining: it is common practice to include celebrities support of football clubs.
I don't think this is typically common at all, but even if it was, Green's support of certain FCs is not a particularly significant part of his biography because it is largely not discussed in
reliable sources. Just because it happens to come up in one of his YouTube videos does not mean we necessarily need to include it. Does anyone else agree?

The following celebrities' pages list the team that they support:
Samuel L. Jackson, Liverpool FC; Patrick Stewart, Huddersfield Town Academy; Kobe Bryant, Barcelona FC; Drew Carey, Barcelon, Rangers, Seatle Sounders; Daniel Day Lewis, Millwall; Will Ferrell, Chelsea; Sir Richard Attenborough, Chelsea Football Club; Keira Knightly, West Ham United; Lennox Lewis, West Ham United; Daniel Craig, Liverpool FC; Fatboy Slim, Brighton & Hove Albion; Sir Elton John, Watford Football Club; Clive Owen, Liverpool Football Club; HRH Charles, Prince of Whales, Burnley Football Club;
Seeing as this article deals with a popular Vlogger i think it is only fitting to include information of his support for a club, especially since he has stated his financial contribution of the proceeds of one of his Youtube channels. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.208.150 ( talk) 18:31, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

– A simple Google search for "John Green" will return an overwhelming amount of results for the author. In this month alone, his article has received 141,959 hits (see this link) and in the last 90 days he has received 416,266 hits (same link, click "90 days"). It is clear that the author is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. James ( T • C) • 11:08pm • 12:08, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
I cannot figure out how to edit this, but some user has added Jason Peng as John's pseudonym, but I cannot find any information to back up this claim. I propose deletion for this particular detail, unless sufficient evidence can be found. 17poer ( talk) 04:37, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
I have been trying to correctly add in a little blurb about SciShow Space under the Vlogbrothers heading of this article, but have been struggling to do so correctly and unintentionally begun "edit warring". I did not mean to do this at all-- I simply wanted to add in SciShow Space to improve the Vlogbrothers section of this article, and to cite my revision correctly so that it may remain in the article.
I was wondering how one would recommend citing this since the only sources that I can find on this particular subject are YouTube videos. Because SciShow Space is a YouTube channel, I haven't been able to find a verifiable source about SciShow Space that is not a YouTube video.
Any help would be much appreciated, and please be aware that I am not trying to cause conflict or blatantly begin a hateful interaction with anyone, whatsoever. I am only trying to correctly add some information to this article, but am apparently failing to do so. 17poer ( talk) 04:36, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
Anybody reading this have a photo of John Green's editor at Dutton, named Julie Strauss-Gabel or perhaps SG and JG together? If so please write something on my talk page, thanx.-- Tomwsulcer ( talk) 15:49, 19 April 2015 (UTC)
I didn't mean to delete the page, I left it unattended and my brother did it.
