Editor conflict[edit]
I have been adding more current photos I’ve taken of subjects and places in Sheboygan but User:Mrschimpf has reverted several of those edits, falsely claiming I’m some such of competitor in local media in Sheboygan which I don’t own any interests in media publishing in Sheboygan County. In one edit on Shoreline Metro, my photo of a bus in service was removed because he claimed permissions were questionable and the photo was posed. Then there is the challenge of updating the photo on Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Asher Heimermann (talk

- "Has been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or television network" [2][3]

Merry Christmas Bearcat[edit]
— WILDSTARTALK is wishing you a Merry Christmas! This greeting (and season) promotes WikiLove and hopefully this note has made your day a little better. Spread the WikiLove by wishing another user a Merry Christmas, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past, a good friend, or just some random person. Don't eat yellow snow!
Spread the holiday cheer by adding {{subst:User:Flaming/MC2008}} to their talk page with a friendly message.
You declined this draft, but I made changes to it that I think solved the initial issue. If you could take another look and give me some feedback I would be appreciative. Thanks for your time. WUH34 (talk) 4:45, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
help with vandalism[edit]
Since November 16, 2022, a user who is not logged in, just identified by their IP address has been adding information to the San Antonio FC page that has no sources to back it up with. Specifically they are adding a player to the roster when there is no evidence on the internet, either by the club, league, or anywhere else that this transaction has occurred. I have undone the edit multiple times but they keep adding it back. Please assist.
1/13/23 - The vandalism is occurring again. Would you be able to ban the IP addresses that are adding the incorrect information? TYIA
Vandalism on "The Wiki Way"[edit]
I chanced across this page and noticed in the edit history that you had removed an invalid category redlink, but not done anything about subtle vandalism (altering a name). I assume the latter was an oversight, but one might have hoped for you to notice that the "invalid" redlink was invalid because it was also part of the vandalism; the name of a legitimate company (for which a category indeed exists) was altered.
I have fixed the problem by rolling back to the last edit before the vandalism started (someone else had made repeated attempts to revert changes from the same troll IP). Please be more attentive in the future.

Quote[edit]
Hello bearcat, I hope you don't mind but I quoted you on an AFD regarding the use of local sources since you perfectly summed things up at AFD for Manny Cid. Patapsco913 (talk) 02:35, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
Undeletion of Canadian Climate Institute[edit]
Hi Bearcat - I’m hoping to un-delete the Canadian Climate Institute page you nominated earlier. That page has been ‘soft-deleted’. My understanding of the process for this is that I should first discuss it with you and provide further rationale for keeping it. Let me know if this is the right spot for that and I can provide more info to address the concerns you listed in the nomination for deletion page. Since the nomination, I added more secondary sources for each claim of fact in the wiki article to address concerns around notability. While I can’t currently view the previous article text for the Canadian Climate Institute entry, there should be around 20-25 additional sources in the article now covering a wide range of topics and major policies related to the subject. These included multiple reports from major media (via the Canadian Press, Globe and Mail, CBC, and others) where the sole or primary focus of the story is the institute’s research on a given topic. In addition, I added three citations in peer reviewed academic journals, and multiple references to citations in major reports from independent officers of parliament (Parliamentary Budget Officer, Commissioner of the Environment and Sustainable Development), as well as policy documents and regulations from federal departments, agencies and councils. I also edited language throughout the article and removed a paragraph that didn’t have sufficient citations to address claims of bias in the descriptions. I’ve also updated my conflict of interest declaration on my user page to connect it to that page. AndrewJPatrick (talk) 15:48, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Redirecting categories[edit]
Hi, thanks for processing all the moves from Category:Barney & Friends character redirects to lists to Category:Barney (franchise) character redirects to lists and Category:Barney & Friends episode redirects to lists to Category:Barney (franchise) episode redirects to lists.
If you think it's best to edit every member page with the new name, that's fine. However, if you would prefer to bypass such labours in future, please note that the redirect templates can resolve category redirects. That is to say, all we need to do in such cases is to leave a category redirect at the old category name, and all the member redirects will be recategorised automagically. It's best to tag the cat-redirect with {{R from template-generated category}} to avoid inadvertent deletion. – Fayenatic London 14:04, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
Scottish International Piano Competition[edit]
Hi :) Sorry only seeing now the change you made on Nov 30 to the Scottish International Piano Competition page. Thanks for adding more tags, but why remove the other ones? Ulysse Verjus-Tonnelé (talk) 20:46, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
Category:Murderers for life insurance money[edit]
@Bearcat, I’d like to know where I could find a list of the articles previously in this category for other purposes on Wikipedia and various Fandom wikis. May you help me with which users or bots were responsible for removing the category name from every article? ContributingHelperOnTheSide (talk) 22:23, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
- @Bearcat, thank you for replying, but you misunderstood my meaning. I was simply hoping to find that list of pages that were categorized, nothing more or less. There are fiction shows that are inspired by real crimes, so I’ve been hoping to expand the wikis for the shows with the information in the articles if they’re confirmed to be related. Someone else told me instructions in how to access the category’s history, but I maybe messed up or their option didn’t work. Thanks for directing me to where I need to go, I’ll see if someone knows what I can do. ContributingHelperOnTheSide (talk) 05:11, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Hello sir how are you? Hope you are well? I draw your attention to an article. 2 days ago I created 2025 Women's Bangladesh Premier League but an editor tagged to delete the article GB fan administrator sir was checked and removed the tag. But I don't understand why the editor did the same thing today? Sir, I hope you will look into this matter. May Allah bless you. stay well thank you.

John Tran[edit]
Hi, would you vote to delete John Tran if you saw it in an AfD? I ask only because the WP:BEFORE checks I am able to perform with my software aren't always great and so I don't want to make another flawed nomination as I might have at Paul Richards (politician).

Romesh Wadhwani page[edit]
I noticed the page for Romesh Wadhwani looks like it's out of date according to recent reports from CNBC, TIME, Forbes, and elsewhere. His LinkedIn profile shows him to be head of SAIGroup - https://www.linkedin.com/in/romesh-wadhwani/ Would it be okay to go in there and make some edits, or are there others I should check in with?

New Westminster political draft edits[edit]
I don't fully understand the purpose of your edits (here and here) to my drafts on the two New Westminster political parties. If I am making two drafts simultaneously on similar topics that will eventually link to each other, why would it make sense to remove the red links that will immediately become useful once both drafts are simultaneously published. If you think that neither draft is notable enough for an article, fair enough, but there are talk pages for that. RedBlueGreen93 18:51, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
