This page needs to exist

That's it 2A02:CB80:4104:BDE:180E:82DF:AC7:B43E (talk) 09:48, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We can't deleate this article; we need to write about a post-AI and post-smartphone generation.

I don't care if "The article's written too bad", isn't that why we need people to improve and edit.

We should not deleate this article, it's not "too soon", ten days ago they are now not fiction, not just the future, they are here now. LostAdventurerr (talk) 21:46, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gen beta is near

Can you please add Gen Beta next week because it’s Christmas and next year is 7 days. 208.98.222.86 (talk) 02:23, 25 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 29 December 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I think now this article has the right to be, in 1 day this generation will be born, I wrote about this generation on Russian Wikipedia and backed it up with sources, now I am ready to write here, please remove the restriction if possible YillowsGiblles (talk) 21:15, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: This isn't the right way to request this page to be recreated. I know Wesoree has worked on a draft of this article, so you two may or may not want to collaborate on that and submit it for review when ready. Thanks – Anne drew 21:50, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Anne drew Thank for the information YillowsGiblles (talk) 22:06, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@YillowsGiblles feel free to edit on my userspace draft since the only thing that keeps that draft from getting G13'ed is if we edit it, and also if we all work as a team it could eventually get AfC'ed -- Wesoree ^{(talk·contribs)} 18:25, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Other Drafts

Should we use the information from the other Gen Beta drafts to here or leave it as be? Rager7 (talk) 02:15, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Generation Beta was the basis for the current (Main:) Generation Beta, so the only draft which isn't merged is User:Wesoree/Generation Beta. I don't see anything there that needs to be kept (they were pretty close to start with, and the source for the "artificial generation" claim is now a dead link). Dan Bloch (talk) 02:38, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

So, does the information in User:Wesoree/Generation Beta gets left out? Rager7 (talk) 02:40, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't see anything I wanted to move, but anyone else is free to move anything they think is beneficial. Dan Bloch (talk) 02:57, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Well, then the only information that is lost is that Gen Beta being an "artificial generation" we either find a new source for that claim or omit it for this main article. Rager7 (talk) 03:08, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Potential reference

Judging by the title, this chapter of a book seems like good source for the article. However it is paywalled and not supported by WP:TWL. https://doi.org/10.4337/9781035301607.00042 Ca ^{talk to me!} 03:00, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Gen Betas Exist now

The first part "Generation Beta (often shortened to Gen Beta) is the proposed demographic cohort " doesn't make sense as they exist now so they arent proposed anymore! Abrazilianwikieditor (talk) 03:07, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I revised the lead sentence to say that it's the proposed name for the generation. Does that clear things up? Some1 (talk) 03:14, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It does clear stuff up Abrazilianwikieditor (talk) 03:18, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
