Grand Theft Auto VI

Grand Theft Auto VI will probably release in January or February 2025 (Q1 2025).

It was found on game news sources, social medias and more.

It probably may be delayed in the future Zona Gg (talk) 13:17, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

British reginal year is empty--Needs update

I noticed that the British reginal year is listed as 'N/A.' There should be a correction or update due to this becoming the 2nd or 3rd year of King Charles the 3rd. I'm not British so I don't know if you count it from when the monarch automatically ascended or when he/she is formally coronated. Rpsenft (talk) 02:22, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

Can someone add 2025 Solar storm?

And yep PlutoPlanet4345 (talk) 17:00, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Do you have a reference? Knitsey (talk) 17:10, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

@Knitsey Yes PlutoPlanet4345 (talk) 17:17, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

Its taken me ages to open the article as it's so ad heavy. The article states could, not will as you wrote. It also seems to say this has been revised to peak up to October 2024. Knitsey (talk) 17:25, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

I've taken a look at the about section for the website and it's owned by the conglomerate that owns Times of India which Wikipedia classes as 'generally unreliable' BUT it might be that the website is OK to use. I can't assess that. WP:RSP Knitsey (talk) 17:31, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

No. You’ve made this edit before completely unsourced and have been told on other accounts to stop. PaulRKil (talk) 12:56, 9 August 2024 (UTC)

Microsoft Ending Support for Windows 10

Why are people so insistent on adding this into the article?

We dont include the discontinuation of more notable operating systems such as XP. To me, it reads more like news about the routine discontinuation of an operating system which isn’t the purpose of Wikipedia.

We should Exclude it. PaulRKil (talk) 15:47, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Not really, windows and windows 10 are huge deals Jjbomb (talk) 20:36, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

Windows XP was also a "huge deal" yet it wasn't covered in those years. We aren't a place for news and routine events (ie the discontinuation of an older operating system) so it doesn't really fit here. PaulRKil (talk) 16:12, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

We aren't a place, What? We literally have a Current Events tab, 2025 is for things that will happen in 2025, we have random sporting events, we can have windows ending support for the most used operating system ever Jjbomb (talk) 23:20, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Can we please add Trump's inauguration?

I an astounded to see that there is a comment saying to exclude Trump's inauguration, as there is apparently a consensus that inaugurations aren't notable. First of all, I can't find this consensus anywhere. But I can find an opposing one.

Also, there's no doubt that the inauguration of a US president is notable enough for this article. So many things are being included that are surely less notable.

And while US inaugurations are particularly notable, I do think the Ghana one should be included too. Grey Clownfish (talk) 10:44, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

I agree, I think it should be added. 2009 and 2013 has Obama; 2005 and 2001 for Bush. I won't look further back, but I'm going to assume the inaugurations of most presidents are on the corresponding year, then suddenly a controversial president is sworn in and now there's a problem. Whatever consensus was supposedly reached didn't seem to be fully applied after the fact, making me doubt it was actually reached in the first place. The notability of the event is demonstrated in media, and also a bit of common sense, when a nuclear power and world's largest economy officially changes leadership. It seems like a glaring omission. WeirdMatter (talk) 16:18, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

I agree with you but I am curious what others think. Unlike parliamentary republics where a new PM and government take over literally the day after most elections, presidential republics have certain constitutional guidelines and dates that are important and I think we might be mistaken to not include these dates as well. The inauguration is important to include here as it represents the final and formal transfer of power from one leader to another. PaulRKil (talk) 16:24, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

I also want to add that I believe that the note about not including Trump's inauguration was added because his supporters kept writing that he would be inaugurated even before the election was even held. PaulRKil (talk) 16:27, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Well, obviously before the election was held, the inauguration should have been added, but the point about it shouldn't have speculated on whether Trump or Harris would be inaugurated. It's still notable even if that's not known. The possible ban of TikTok was included before it was known that TikTok would be banned. Grey Clownfish (talk) 03:56, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Actually, it appears that the event that lead to the inauguration being deemed unnotable was the actual, non-premature, declaration of Trump as the winner on November 6.

This is the edit that first claimed there was a consensus not to include the inauguration. I don't think that's the consensus at all. The "consensus" was not a result of a discussion at all, it was the result of edit-warring, probably because the people who didn't want the inauguration to be added were more aggressive.

The real consensus is the 2018 one I linked to. Which is to include the inauguration. By the way, there were three people who removed the inauguration before @McSly: made the claim that there was a consensus. They were @185.112.3.98:, @Alsoriano97: and McSly themself. There were actually more people who added the inauguration. Seems to me that the consensus has always been that the inauguration should be included.

As per WP:CONSENSUS, Agree. Grey Clownfish (talk) 04:45, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Agree: I looked at the pages for 2009 and 2013, and both talk about Obama. 2001 and 2005 mention Bush as well. 2017 even mentions Trump's first inauguration a bit, although its mostly because of the protests that occured. Cavdan2024 (talk) 20:16, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Agree: I have a question, why is the inaguration of a american president not automatically added to 2025? We have random sporting events, but not the inaguration of a president? Jjbomb (talk) 23:19, 31 December 2024 (UTC)

Per WP:CONSENSUS, inaugurations are not notable events Rc2barrington (talk) 03:53, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

wikipedia man Jjbomb (talk) 06:51, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Agree because, as stated, I cannot find this "consensus". Also, if inaugurations are not "notable events", then I don't understand how it has its own article, as that means it is notable. I think Trump's inauguration should be added, seeing as there seems to be consensus here. Ulysses Grant Official (talk) 04:32, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

Sure. I was just listing what was on the source edit, it says per a consensus, but I can't find this consensus. Because of this overwhelming consensus, I think it would be difficult for any opposition. Agree. Rc2barrington (talk) 04:37, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
