Chase Hooper
{{AFC comment|1=:CASSIOPEIA Ok that's fine, but do please listen to what people are saying is all I ask. Yes, the following thing can be debated, which all sides of the debate should be taken on board, and that's absolutely fine. My note was just a suggestion for those who are working on this page and want to strengthen the article; it's all missing from here and is something that probably would have given his page the all-clear earlier this year. I'm sure you can agree how this would strengthen his article. Thanks :) UFC Cub Beavis (talk) 12:30, 11 July 2020 (UTC)} }
{{AFC comment|1=*Cassiopeia Please be so kind to reread my comment as you have completely missed the point of why my comment was written (I expected that to be ignored as it always is when people raise a valid yet very important suggestion). I've never worked on this page, and it's not in my pages to work on, so it was a note/suggestion to those who are to help strengthen his page. I was surprised Hooper doesn't have a page already. You are honestly one of the best contributors to Wikipedia by a million miles (10000%, I sincerely feel you are), but this is what's disappointing a little and the problem here, when it's completely brushed off and without even responding to the context what was mentioned in the actual comment, it makes us feel VERY devalued as a contributor. I addressed how I know that's the genuine model of three fights to go by, but there is an exception here (the whole point of my comment). I made it all very clear as to why and how I'm 99% sure writers and other people looking for sources are finding it harder without his Wikipedia source. He's not just some unknown fighter making his way in the UFC; he's a pretty popular public figure outside of that too, none of which has been covered.
Sure, we can wait until his next fight; it doesn't matter to me, but there really should have been an article on him before this as an exception due to his unique case; this is what I was trying to explain, which was clearly completely missed. This is what's disappointing about Wikipedia, I feel, when people don't listen to what people are saying; it's like brief reading and then replying with the same old, which results in miscommunication and frustration like this.
If you would have read my comment properly, you wouldn't have said about the three fights thing because I've already explained in the first line I know that, but there's more than that with Chase Hooper; again, none of which is covered that would strengthen his article and probably pass the article. It was a suggestion to whoever works on this page to maybe consider which might help strengthen it (I wish people would read).
We can wait, but please, in future, be so kind to listen to what people are saying; that's all I ask. It just saves a lot of frustration and makes people feel better and valued as contributors when people actually listen to their reasoning and suggestions are taken on board. I already mentioned I UNDERSTAND and KNOW about that, but here is what I'm suggesting.
Chase is not only a UFC fighter but a popular and cult-type media personality, which one of the articles I linked ALSO very clearly highlighted, hence the reason I showed you this.
Thanking you kindly for listening to this post. :) UFC Cub Beavis (talk) 12:09, 11 July 2020 (UTC)} }
{{AFC comment|1=I'm really surprised to see Chase hasn't got a Wikipedia; I understand the criteria is three MMA fights in a top organization such as the UFC, however, Chase has become more than a random MMA fighter and has got himself quite a notable media personality too. Whoever works on this page next should consider adding a media personality section with some sources. I honestly feel that these things should be taken on board and not just declined due to set criteria when not all cases are the same. He's not just making a name for himself fighting in the octagon like the majority of the fighters, but also for his popular media personality he is gaining too. I don't think we should wait for his third fight to accept this, and I do feel this should be there now; people will be looking for his Wikipedia as a source of info.
Edit, some sources to start work with along the lines of this.

This is a very unique situation which is where Wikipedia falls flat; it should be done in an individual case, not by a set criteria as the be all and end all.
I hope this helps. UFC Cub Beavis (talk) 17:05, 10 July 2020 (UTC)} }
