A1: Your edit was likely reverted by another editor for failing to adhere to Wikipedia's standards of quality as it applies to biographies of living persons. Edits that are not encyclopedic, neutral in phrasing, or constructive are subject to removal (see: WP:PILLARS).
Q2: Andrew Tate goes by xe/xim pronouns. Why doesn't the article use them?
A2: Per MOS:GENDERID, articles use the pronouns found in the most recent reliable sources. While self-identification is usually sufficient for pronouns per WP:ABOUTSELF, there is serious doubt among editors that Andrew Tate's claims to prefer xe/xim or she/her pronouns are genuine. The self-identifcation is thus an exceptional claim and not, on its own, a reliable source. As of yet, no independent source refers to Tate using xe/xim or she/her pronouns.
Q3: Why isn't Andrew Tate's conversion to Islam mentioned in the article?
A3: Andrew Tate's conversion to Islam is mentioned in the article under § Personal life. The "stance" parameter in the infobox does not refer to Tate's religious stance; rather, it refers to his boxing stance during his time as a kickboxer. He fought with an orthodox stance.

A fact from Andrew Tate appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 12 May 2024 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
When searching Tristan Tate on Wikipedia it redirects to the article of Andrew Tate. But Tristan is a separate person and popular media influencer and deserves a separate article. In fact, a separate article for Tristan Tate is as important as Andrew Tate's article. So, let's make a separate article for Tristan Tate. AimanAbir18plus (talk) 19:56, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Its an atypical close though, its extremely technical and does not preclude recreation with higher quality sources "This means we do not have the liberty to simply leave the offending page in place until better sources surface." Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:06, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Horse Eye's Back: the close came down to sources, which isn't particularly atypical especially for a BLP. Has better sourcing emerged since the AFD? My recollection at the time was there there were lots of trivial mentions but no depth of coverage in RS. VQuakr (talk) 20:44, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The close (according to the closer) came down to WP:PERP and WP:SUSPECT, the coverage of the various trials is in-depth coverage in RS but much of it falls within this special BLP protection. This was essentially a TNT close on BLP grounds, it was no consensus after all not not a consensus to delete. WP:PERP in particular indicates that we could make a subpage for the court cases without making one for Tristan Tate specifically, so there are a few options here... Not just a stand-alone Tristan Tate. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:49, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The close was definitively delete not no consensus. If no new, substantial sources are available since the closure then further discussion seems unnecessary. VQuakr (talk) 23:31, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is the entirety of the close: "The result was delete. Once you discard the !votes not based on policy or guidelines, views seem evenly split between Keep and Delete. Normally, that would result in a No consensus close. But this isn't a normal situation, as we're dealing with a BLP that falls under the auspices of WP:PERP and WP:SUSPECT, as some here correctly noted. This means we do not have the liberty to simply leave the offending page in place until better sources surface. The deletion is without prejudice against turning the page into a redirect to Andrew Tate, the appropriateness of which can be reviewed at RfD if disputed." so you are clearly wrong. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 00:01, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's a delete closure, like I said. Not a no consensus closure. So no, I don't see anything that would result in me being "clearly wrong". I also (still) haven't seen any sources presented that would alter the outcome of that discussion. VQuakr (talk) 03:38, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"Normally, that would result in a No consensus close. But this isn't a normal situation" and you don't seem to have offered an opinion on the options offered by the BLP page even through the closer mentions them explicitly, are we not supposed to follow WP:PERP and WP:SUSPECT? You also appear to have been involved in the close, so you lack the objectivity to evaluate it... I don't. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:16, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, so we now agree this was closed as delete, good. I was not involved in the close. I was involved in the discussion. Not that it matters. Anyways, since you're unable/unwilling to provide sources this appears to be a dead issue. VQuakr (talk) 18:40, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you contributed to the discussion then you are involved in the close, you appear to lack the objectivity to evaluate it which is why you are now attacking me. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:18, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's not what "involved in the close" means. You don't get to choose who participates in a discussion. No one is "attacking" you. VQuakr (talk) 21:03, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Theres an awful lot of aggression being directed my way by you if you do not mean to be attacking me. You've made this extremely personal and haven't actualy addressed policy or guideline here unless I'm missing something. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 21:05, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, there isn't. If you have behavioral concerns move to my talk page, please, rather than distracting from my policy-based concerns that have been ignored thus far. VQuakr (talk) 21:23, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can we get specific please? What specific secondary sources discuss Tristan Tate in depth and have come out since the last AFD, that might indicate that the subject now merits a stand-alone article? VQuakr (talk) 21:41, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Why would they have needed to come out since the last AFD? It wasn't deleted for lack of coverage last time, it was deleted on a technicality. There is no consensus that the topic lacks the necessary coverage to be notable which would need to be overcome. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 21:49, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Huh? BLP is a core content policy not a technicality. If there are no new sources since last time, then it's logical to assume that there still isn't adequate sourcing for a stand-alone article. VQuakr (talk) 22:32, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Take it to the talk page, that's what it's there for. There is even a source list to work on, ie feel free to edit just leave a signature if you do. That's why I archived the discussion initially, as it has nothing directly to do with this page. CNC (talk) 11:52, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Given that we're discussing either a joint page for the brothers or breaking off the joint legal problems into their own article this is the right talk page. Please stop making these bold moves which you should know will be objected to. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 16:19, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
My first thought was that the other Tate brother's notability was entirely dependent on this one's... But from a quick google I think that they almost certainly are notable, much of the coverage of the two does treat them as an item ("the Tates" "the Tate brothers" etc) so the two ways I can see us going with this are deciding that they're best covered together on a joint Tate brothers page (which this more or less currently is) or making a main page for each brother and a combined one for the combined legal issues. Due to the immense amount of coverage we have I would have a hard time arguing that multiple pages aren't due. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 20:06, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
