User talk:Mpa swiss

It would seem that I need to write something here, so that other Wikipedians can contact me via this page...

Sorry, I wasn't aware. I have in the past occasionally intervened in other Wikipedia sites (other than the Swiss one) and this problem had so far never cropped up. (And I did make sure some time ago that I do exist as a member on the English wikipedia site, assuming that this was sufficient... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mpa_swiss)

I need your advice ...

This morning I left a message on the talk page of Ajf773, concerning the fact that he/she had deleted an input I had made on the article "Cat café" yesterday. In this message, I had asked about his/her using (among others) the word "promotional" when deleting and explained why I felt that this was not justified, why I had not used certain online links (e.g. to articles in the local press) I had found (viz. precisely because I feared that they might be considered promotional). And that I had kept my input so short and barren, in order to look first for additional non-promotional information (online and by going there) and I asked him/her what sort of information would prevent the qualification "non-notable".

I also pointed out that, in the introduction of the article, it is not defined as prerequisite that the cafés should be active in home-finding for cats and that, while this is of course an excellent help for homeless cats, a café can also be helpful to humans feeling lonely or regretting not being able to have a pet of their own. And I (76) explained that what had prompted me, after my granddaughter (21) in the Netherlands had told me about the Cat café she patronizes, was that when I found the article and read it, I found Switzerland missing and did a bit of research. My granddaughter and I correspond in English because she doesn't speak German and I don't speak Dutch; I didn't use English so as to be intrusive. Adding to the English article was sort of obvious. (It was also the only Cat café article I had found).

Just now I checked Ajf773's talk page (hoping for an answer). My message of this morning unfortunately has disappeared without a trace... No doubt I made a mistake editing it. Now I am at a loss what to do.

Can anyone help, PLEASE ?? Mpa swiss (talk) 12:54, 12 December 2022 (UTC)

P.S.:

Probably I took too long editing my message... and that's why it disappeared.
