Hi Mrbeast's name is incorrect. May I change it pls ?
- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 11:25, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
Most subscribed channel on the platform - sources needed
editNot long ago, MrBeast's YT channel has seemed to surpass T-Series by as of now, ~1,250 subs. (when I made this) Do you think there can be some sources to prove this? (refer to WP:VER) Because then there's the battle of most subbed YouTube channel. Please lmk if the article will mention this. Thank you, respectfully Mod creator 🏡 🗨 📝 00:18, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have no doubt reliable sources will report on it soon, but we have to wait until articles are written and published. FunIsOptional (talk) (use ping please) 00:26, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Possible implementation of an auto-updating Subscriber/analytic count for this article?
editIt seems like a lot of work for Wikipedia editors to increment subscriber counts multiple times per month. Is there any way to use Youtube's API to mitigate this by having Subscriber count increment in accordance to his current youtube statistics? 144.51.249.242 (talk) 17:55, 18 June 2024 (UTC)
- That is a pretty good idea. I wonder if some module can get some data from YouTube to do this. CarlFilip19 (talk) 18:08, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
Mr.Beast is technically a nfl free agent
editin one of his video he was signed by the Bucks and his contract is over and he didn't announce his retirement he's a free agent Jayden Fry (talk) 04:42, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
grammar
edit"With over 298 million subscribers, he is currently the most-subscribed channel on YouTube."
this should be "With over 298 million subscribers, he currently has the most-subscribed channel on YouTube." perhaps the structure could be inverted because of this change 216.164.249.213 (talk) 01:19, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
"greatest youtuber of all time"
editCurrent intro reads, "...and is widely regarded as the greatest YouTuber of all time". This seems like a very subjective opinion and is not backed up by evidence. The citation associated with the sentence is a single source opinion that says hes the 'most successful' youtuber.
A single source opinion for him being 'most successful' is not sufficient to say 'widely regarded as the greatest'. I would delete the phrase. Popher (talk) 22:55, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Public image
editthe public image section needs some work, some sentences are so banal it borders on absurd "Donaldson also builds a parasocial relationship with his viewers by "looking directly at the camera and talking to the audience"". — jonas (talk) 00:23, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected Edit Request 19 July 2024
editIn the second paragraph, the sentence "His videos became increasingly grand and extravagant" is included, which is grammatically incorrect, as the article is written in present tense as Mr Beast is still and active Youtuber. I'd like to request for this to be changed to "His videos have become increasingly grand and extravagant." EndTheWikiEditor (talk) 04:17, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
