NPOV?

This segment "He did everything from making the characters, writing the dialogue, creating the music, and animating every pixel" seems slightly POV to me, how could we change it to be more neutral? (I could also just be wrong) 12.169.98.114 (talk) 17:46, 5 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Overlinking

It seems like there are more links in External links than are necessary. – OdinintheNorth (talk) 19:58, 17 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I reduced them to just his X account per WP:SOCIALS and WP:TWITTER-EL. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 18:00, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Eric Barone → ConcernedApe – Per WP:COMMONNAME; he uses the professional alias ConcernedApe in every project he works on. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 17:58, 14 April 2025 (UTC) — Relisting. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 18:58, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. I spot checked the first 15 references and a handful of others and most use Eric Barone exclusively or predominantly. (Side note: A lot of these are duplicates; the references section could use some work.) Sources include a lot of gaming-centric media that one might assume would preference his online handle, but they don't. I did a Google News search for ConcernedApe and Google suggests the topic Eric Barone. I did a word search of each of the first 10 articles and 5 prefer ConcernedApe, 4 prefer Eric Barone, and 1 was pretty mixed. His IMDb credits are listed as Eric Barone. I'm aware of the issues with citing IMDb but this at least does not support the assertion that his moniker is always used professionally (Cf. Lady Gaga.) --MYCETEAE 🍄‍🟫—talk 22:46, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Myceteae. Many sources use his regular name, which should be the default. — Amakuru (talk) 22:49, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose Per others. I do, however, support moving him to Eric Barone (game developer) to differentiate from Éric Barone, who should be at Éric Barone (cyclist). I am not sure SMALLDETAILS is enough in this case. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 10:36, 28 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
