Awkward Construction in Lead
Couldn't one change "known to certainly reach" to "confirmed to have reached"? It feels less awkward and the tense is clearer. 72.46.2.163 (talk) 16:33, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
In Other Media or In Popular Culture
In the popular MMORPG, Old School RuneScape, there is a character named Tenzing.
This character, when examined, says "an experienced Sherpa". He lives at the bottom of a mountain and the player uses Tenzing's advice to find a path to the top of a mountain.
I believe this should be referenced in a section called other media or popular culture. I've never made edits to Wikipedia before and am not sure what the best practice is.

edit request
Tenzing Norgay Trainor redirects to Tenzing Norgay#Descendants. i'd like to see some discussion about the actor's name not being a redirect.
(Also, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tenzing_Norgay_Trainor&redirect=no implies a draft exists at Draft:Tenzing Norgay Trainor, but that also redirects to Tenzing Norgay#Descendants. Is that a problem with the template? i don't completely understand Wikipedia templates.)
According to Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Entertainers
- a person may be considered notable if The person has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions
Does his work in Liv and Maddie, Abominable (2019 film), and Abominable and the Invisible City meet that standard?
Apparently he has had other roles too, but i haven't seen them so i don't know how significant those roles were. According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lists of works#Basic list style – examples
- Complete lists of works, appropriately sourced to reliable scholarship (WP:V), are encouraged
but Tenzing Norgay Trainor has more than seems appropriate for inclusion in the Tenzing Norgay article or Tenzing (name) "disambiguation".

Compare this article to George_Mallory, this article: 5 citations in the first paragraph alone, while George_Mallory has only 1 in the first four paragraphs. We find only an equivalent density of references once reaching 'Early Life' on George_Mallory.
MOS:CITELEAD recommends that many articles choose not to have citations in the lead if the claims are cited in the body of the article.
My concern is there is no consistency between articles, only within. While this has greater implications which I feel need addressing, I have neither the time nor personal intelect to undergo this.
Looking at the citations in the lead, [1], [2] and [3] could all be easily relocated to the body of 'Early Life'. I feel it provides in its current state a poor outlook when comparing articles such as George_Mallory to this, making others feel under-cited. (This in particular is what drew my original attention, as it was commented on during a presentation analysis of Malory's life by an Everest historian) I do strongly feel we should make the style of closely related articles such as these consistent for those who may navigate between and compare them.

- Agreed. However George Mallory appears is somewhat irrelevant. WP:LEADCITE is standard policy. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:20, 8 April 2025 (UTC)
