Kai (singer)Kai (South Korean singer) – There is also a Canadian singer called Kai now reflected at Kai (Canadian singer) Neither is more prominent than the other. Kai (singer) to serve as a redirect to Kai disambiguation. werldwayd (talk) 11:34, 8 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Kai (South Korean singer)Kai (singer) – After Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kai (Canadian singer) was closed as delete, this is the only notable singer named Kai. SSTflyer 12:20, 1 July 2016 (UTC)Reply

– "birth year" not needed per WP:PTOPIC! This discussion like Thriller-type RM. -St3095 (?) 04:41, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Support per nom. – DarkGlow (contribstalk) 16:58, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose These disambiguators are unnecessarily confusing, both are entertainers and both are musicians. – Thjarkur (talk) 17:09, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose; I agree with the user above. Musician and entertainer could easily refer to either of them so it's not really disambiguating anything and distinguising between the two. Alex (talk) 17:22, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose I agree that Kai (musician, born 1981) should be renamed. From WP:BANDDAB: Use "(musician)" when the person is known for their work in other musical fields, like writing songs or producing music for other artists. This does not appear to be the case for Kai (1981), whose article only mentions singing, radio DJ, actor, and reality competition judge. So Kai (entertainer, born 1981) probably. 162.208.168.92 (talk) 17:34, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose more evidence that the Michael Jackson album ought to follow en.wp rules. All this constant disruption to save "(Michael Jackson album)" appearing on a Michael Jackson album? Why are we making this album an exception that disrupts the entire project? In ictu oculi (talk) 18:32, 20 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose also note that there is Kai (Canadian singer) so I don't see enough of a case for a PDAB[[1]]. Crouch, Swale (talk) 09:38, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Merger proposal edit

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
Not moved. This is not a merge proposal but a requested move identical to the one above. That one resulted in a very clear consensus against the move, which the opinions expressed in this discussion agree with. Lennart97 (talk) 13:49, 4 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

I propose to merge Kai (entertainer, born 1994) into Kai (entertainer) and Kai (musician, born 1981) into Kai (musician). Birth year not needed in these titles of two articles. -St3095 (?) 05:42, 2 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Oppose per the discussion closed less than a week ago.
I would have !voted oppose in that discussion. That and this proposal are guaranteed ways to accumulate bad links, which give readers wrong information and degrade the encyclopedia. Narky Blert (talk) 09:01, 2 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Add information to Television series edit

Add "I Live Alone" to the TV show and specify the date of the show Kai appeared on.WXY0224 (talk) 22:53, 28 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Several changes needed edit

- New World was a show on Netflix, so it should be under "television" not "web show"

- He became a model for beauty brand Charmzone in 2022

- In 2022, he became a model for the health and beauty chain Olive Young alongside Hwasa

- Under music videos, he has a guest appearance in Girls Generation-TTS Twinkle

- Under collaborations, add Hot & Cold from the 2022 Winter Palace SMTOWN : SMCU Palace album

- "Kai has been selected as the first Gucci Eyewear Men Global Ambassador in Korea." this line can be deleted as his Gucci ambassadorship is already mentioned under "Entertainments"

- "Entertainments" should be relabelled commercials, endorsements or brand ambassadorships because that section has nothing to do with entertainment Exokaifan (talk) 18:00, 14 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Exokaifan Netflix like any other OTTs are streaming media/service on web therefore it is correct that "New World" which is a Netflix show is under a web show. About Charmzone I would agree as you provide a reliable source and also about Olive Young but provide a reliable source. We don't list guest appearances on filmographies. Provide also a reliable source about "Hot & Cold". I will or other experienced editors to edit the content about "..Gucci Eyewear Men Global Ambassador.." and the last part about Entertainment section. ♒️ 98TIGERIUS 🐯 01:39, 15 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

The personal life section: On May 3, 2023, SM Entertainment announced through Exo's official fan club that Kai would have fulfill his military mandatory service as a social service worker on May 11.

should have a "would have to fulfill" as it is grammatically incorrect otherwise 97.115.34.122 (talk) 16:07, 10 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
