The name for the fans of Big Time Rush is not included. After the fandom name for The Big Lebowski is listed, the fandom name for Big Time Rush, the Nickelodeon original tv series and band from the 2000's, should be listed: Rushers. Below is a link to a hashtag on Instagram that demonstrates the legitimacy of this edit. [1] Realrusher4life (talk) 06:46, 16 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Do you have any reliable sources that use the term "Rushers" in this context? Instagram is not a WP:RS. -OXYLYPSE (talk) 15:19, 19 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
While comments from fan accounts on Instagram are definitely unusable and should be taken with a grain of salt, we could instead go with any post from the band using when it wouldn't a contentious claim for them to mention their own fanbase's name. It raises the question of when and where they've done so even when mentions in the press would be preferable. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 15:28, 19 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Gracie Abrams

Could you add Gracie Abrams fans? The name of the fandom is Gracelanders. Thank you! 91.161.181.112 (talk) 18:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

edit

adomin for ado (utaite) Holdmyapplejuice (talk) 14:33, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Do you have a reliable source? It appears to be an unofficial name. User350 (talk) 16:14, 5 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
i'll try to find a source, but for now, adomin seems to be made by the japanese fans, what would be a valid source? post or tweet from ado herself? Holdmyapplejuice (talk) 15:04, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
