Radio station articles - rebroadcasters/transmitters

Hi Bearcat, I noticed lately that if you click on a Query to access a rebroadcast transmitter information, ie: CBO-FM, it shows "Page not found" and it's on every query only in the transmitter list, but works okay under External links. I also noticed this error in every radio station article on Wikipedia recently. Isn't there a way you could correct this? Thanks!  :-) Webfan29 (talk) 21:25, 1 December (UTC)

List of radio stations in Ontario

Hi Bearcat, I noticed that the List of radio stations in Ontario article has been "locked" to prevent users from editing since 2011. I was wondering if you could "unlock" that article? Thanks!  :-) Webfan29 (talk) 21:39, 1 December (UTC).

Delete?

I'm not sure how to do it, but if you think it should be deleted can you have the article David Drake (venture capitalist) deleted? I see you also edited it. And that you are an administator. I just tried to fix it but it just looks like an autobiography for the most part, when all is said and done. The guy spoke in favor of some law, he speaks a few languages, he has companies nobody has ever heard of ... doesn't sound like a wikipedia article. 199.102.168.8 (talk) 03:13, 2 December 2015 (UTC)

Deletion

Hey,

Can you explain why the WILD (American band) page was deleted. It complies with wiki requirements. Please revert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alottanothing (talk • contribs) 10:15, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Question

Hi, how do you add person data templates and data in articles using AWB? Is there any automaed/semi-automated method or any option in AWB to add this? Or do you manually add? Thanks Muhammad Shuaib (talk) 08:52, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Elora, Ontario, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George Drew (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Ultimate Airport Dubai

Hi there, just thought I'd let you know I removed a recent HotCat edit you did on Ultimate Airport Dubai. You added [[Category:2010s American television series]], however the television program isn't American produced nor filmed, and as far as I can figure doesn't even air in the US. -- Whats new?^(talk) 03:28, 15 December 2015 (UTC)

Neutral point of view

Do not impose your moral values against the Rastafari bredren. Remember Leslie Kong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.185.227 (talk) 18:02, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Nobody did anything of the sort. But Wikipedia's WP:NPOV policy also means you don't get to impose your moral values against anybody else, either. Bearcat (talk) 18:05, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

You are the one doing the imposing around here with your admin tools mistah gay admin — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.185.227 (talk) 18:07, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Nope. Doing nothing of the sort. Bearcat (talk) 18:09, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Didn't you lock the page down on your preferred version mista gay admin?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.58.185.227 (talk) 18:11, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Not "my preferred version"; the version that was correctly compliant with Wikipedia's neutral point of view rules. Bearcat (talk) 18:13, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

I would just like to say that from an outside perspective, the IP's order to "Remember Leslie Kong" could be construed as a death threat, as I can see no context for the reference (No reason to bring up Kong) except for the circumstances of his death (i.e. remember what happened to the last guy who wouldn't listen). Just wanted to let you know in case you missed it (easy to miss if not familiar with the subject), because no one deserves to be threatened like that, especially without being aware that they were threatened. UnequivocalAmbivalence (talk) 23:34, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Agreed. I looked up Leslie Kong after reading this section, and saw mention of an (alleged) death curse against Kong. Funcrunch (talk) 23:59, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Need some help here: Robert Taylor (actor)

A relatively new editor has been adding a great deal of information based on what some other editors consider a questionable source: Template:Find a Grave; more importantly is a tendentious history WP:TE in constantly reverting back to a preferred version, thereby hitting the 3R rule. Can you help; I have already set up a talk page discussion on the topic of Robert Taylor's death. I do not want to go any further, for the time being, on dealing with the numerous other articles that have been revised to have a great reliance on the Find-a-Grave website as a reference source. Sorry to involve you in a sticky issue, especially during the season of good will. FWiW Bzuk (talk) 23:26, 28 December 2015 (UTC)

Ways to improve List of Canadian films of 2016

Hi, I'm Rocksanddirt. Bearcat, thanks for creating List of Canadian films of 2016!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hi, I don't know if this is an encyclopedic page, as it seems more like news to me. More importantly, it needs some references to reliable sources (wikilinks don't count).

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Rocksanddirt (talk) 23:24, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

regarding your comment - No worries, I had just never seen such a thing and wouldn't have thought of looking here for that sort of information. --Rocksanddirt (talk) 23:53, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Friendly advice

I noticed that you express on your user page that you drink caffeine and suffer from depression. I would advice you to go off caffeine for at least one month- including tea and any other caffeine product- and see what happens. You may suffer from withdrawal symptoms such as fatigue and dizziness, but a few days after that keep the fast. After a month ask yourself if you still suffer from depression or anything else you felt while on caffeine. My friendly advice. But in the end it's up to you.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 08:34, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Dispute over Toronto Life listing

Hi Bearcat. As a Wikipedia administrator, I'd appreciate if you could weigh in on a debate over the entry for Toronto Life. I am a former employee of the publication. Three years ago, long after I'd left Toronto Life, I added a section about the web site and online brand expansion. A current member of the Toronto Life staff has recently removed the section, stating that it is purely self-promotional and irrelevant. Though my own name is mentioned in this section, I believe I followed Wikipedia's guidelines, including 21 independent media attributions across 8 different publications, and undid the deletion. I also reached out to the staff member and suggested he edit any specific parts that are in dispute rather than outright deleting 1,400 words from the page. The Toronto Life staffer has since deleted the entire section again. Is it possible for you to review the Revision History and either restore the section or indicate to me that it is indeed invalid? Both of us have agreed to leave this decision to a Wikipedia administrator, so I'm reaching out to you here for guidance. Thanks! Heygaryc (talk) 18:18, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
