i had in mind in means "Questions Answers none" , but here is stated that it comes from anonimous. then were leads "q" to ?? 178.84.194.202 (talk) 07:55, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

RS say it, so do we. Do you have RS for any other claims? Slatersteven (talk) 11:32, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Q is what the individual used as their display name on 4chan and later 8chan. The "Anon" part was added because referring to people as "Anon" or "X-Anon" is tradition on these kinds of boards (as "Anonymous" is the default display name). Q = QAnon, a point this article seems to miss, creating a fake distinction between the name of the pseudonymous individual (or individuals) and the "movement" surrounding them.

This NBC article explains it a bit in the section "The anons" (this writer seems to be among the few journalists to "get it" and not just parrot erroneous information from other articles): How three conspiracy theorists took 'Q' and sparked Qanon OsmanOfRenown (talk) 21:47, 25 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that this whole article needs to be renamed to "the Q-Anon conspiracy" and all of the now disproven claims that it was a conspiracy "theory" removed. Its now a known fact since the latest release of the epstein files, and it sounds really silly to try to defend these child trafficking jerks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jmurphy914 (talk • contribs) 17:48, 19 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

After release of the infamous Epstein file most or even the main plot/definition is clearly not consistent with current information, I request that the article be marked as outdated until edited in accordance with existing public information when such information is deemed sufficient. 14MS95 (talk) 15:33, 14 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

So what information do we have that is outdated? Slatersteven (talk) 15:39, 14 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

How are the Epstein files remotely relevant to cannibalistic child molesters? Dimadick (talk) 03:32, 15 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

In addition to pedophilia, the declassified files of Jeffrey Epstein revealed cannibalism and ritual murders.

I don't see any mention of this in your source. Further, the source is a primary source and just claims made by an attorney which cannot be used here. O3000, Ret. (talk) 12:54, 15 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
