Talk:Louis C.K.

message: As a fan of Louis CK and as someone who is largely okay with him returning to comedy, it's still a little strange for me that his sexual misconduct allegations are described - allbeit in full - in a subsection paragraph of his career.
They are a prominent part of his life and career and should be in their own top level section after both his career and personal life. It doesn't do their significance justice otherwise. 79.66.8.116 (talk) 10:18, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Per WP:CSECTION, "best practice is to incorporate positive and negative material into the same section", in order to follow a neutral point of view and due weight considerations. As you say, this is a part of C.K.'s career, and that's why it should be within that section. — Bilorv (talk) 11:26, 22 January 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: It definitely needs its own section. For it to be one sentence in a giant section on his career accomplishments diminishes what he did to these women. 2603:7000:6039:F00C:881B:EFDD:9BC5:46F3 (talk) 21:26, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Where are you getting "one sentence" from? It's seven paragraphs under "2017: Sexual misconduct revelations" and a paragraph under "2018–2020: Return to stand-up comedy". — Bilorv (talk) 17:12, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

message: THE INTRODUCTION TO THIS 'article' is waaaaaaay too long. Unnecessary, and boring.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.123.126.45 (talk) 08:03, 30 December 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Should "Louis C.K.: Back to the Garden" be listed with the rest of his comedy specials? 

message: Just to be clear, I understand and support the reasoning behind using the last name of someone as the short form of their name, at least in their basic article. In fact, I think this method can have a number of benefits, besides expediating the reading of the article, such as facilitating a neutral and yet respectful distance in the phrasing of the article's content.
However, in the case of Louis C.K., using the letters 'C.K.' as the short form—as it is done all through this article—seems weird and artificial to me, for the simple reason that this isn't his last name.
Basically, it doesn't make sense to me that I'm reading the letters "C.K." again and again while having already been told from the article's first paragraph that his actual last name is Székely and knowing that the two letters are simply a kind of sign-off he uses to not confuse people about the spelling of his actual last name.
I propose that the short form "C.K." is changed to *either* "Székely" or "Louis C.K." throughout the article.
I find both options perfectly acceptable in the context of this article—although I think it might read slightly more effortlessly if his artistic tag, "Louis C.K.", is simply spelled out in each case.
Thoughts and/or opinions?
