Regarding the subject's notability, an article about him in Wired was published a few days ago.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.136.41.205 ( talk) 14:16, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
Thank you.
Please send me a message if you want to submit this draft again. Thank you.
Only remove it if making a writing discography draft article for Steve Lacy. He does not yet have his own main article, so please do not delete that section from this current article draft otherwise. Thank you. Bmegrl9113 ( talk) 18:07, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
Serious question. Most people are going to think someone with the name 'Steve' has a full birth name of 'Steven' or 'Stephen', just saying.
As Lacy is clearly become notable for being a singer-songwriter, I believe his parentheses should be moved to Steve Lacy (singer-songwriter) - away from (guitarist). CaffeinAddict ( talk) 04:57, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
I agree, there should definitely be an update to the article name. Lacy is a musician, not just a guitarist. But I also think he could even get the main billing of Steve Lacy on here. He's probably the most notable Steve Lacy at this point, especially with a Wikipedia page. He has been well known for the past few years, and has been getting a ton of recognition lately.

I also agree because of the reasons that you and the other person stated. dksn123 ( talk) 02:11, 27 September 2022 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: Moved to Steve Lacy (singer). Those who oppose contend that it may be too soon to move to the primary topic title, arguing that the high page views are a result of recentism and also on long-term significance. However, it is noted that this article has been getting high amount of page views since 2019. Nonetheless, the consensus is that it is too soon for now to move to the primary topic title, and recognising that an update to the parenthetical qualifier should be carried out. Of the various qualifiers presented, (singer) has the most support. ( closed by non-admin page mover) – robertsky ( talk) 17:02, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
– It is pretty clear that this Steve Lacy has become the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC for Steve Lacy. If you take a look at page statistics for other Steve Lacy's and compare them to the statistics for this one, you can see clearly see that this one is the most sought after. The (guitarist) disambiguation also doesn't cover Steve Lacy perfectly as he is more known for his activity as a singer-songwriter. Changing it to Steve Lacy would kill two birds with one stone.

The result of the move request was: Moved per WP:Primary Topic ( non-admin closure) >>> Extorc. talk 20:19, 12 May 2023 (UTC)
– It's been over six months since the last move discussion. He's now won a grammy, been nominated in two major categories, and was named as one of the most influential people in the world by Time. It seems clear that the singer is the primary topic. The Midnite Wolf ( talk) 18:37, 5 May 2023 (UTC)
