Editor conflict
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

Bearcat,
Please link me to this wikipedia elections policy in which you discussed on my talk page.
Thanks!
Merry Christmas Bearcat
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
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

Policy 713
Hi there, I noticed you were apart of the LGBT in Canada work group and I was wondering if you could do an article rating on Policy 713? I've added everything I could find and published it to the mainspace, if there's any part of the article I could improve on feel free to let me know. B3251 (talk) 22:00, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
WP Radio Stations
Hi there. I noticed that you are one of the earliest, if not the earliest, editor to join WikiProject Radio Stations that is still active, so I thought you might be the best person to ask – are you or anyone else considered a “coordinator” for the project? I ask because I would like some “official” guidance related to the thread I started recently on the talk page there but wasn’t sure who to ask as the project page doesn’t list anyone being in such a role. Furthermore, I wouldn’t mind leading an official effort to establish some standards for that stuff, but I didn’t want to step on any toes (nor do I know whose toes I might need to worry about). — Garrett W. {☎ ✍} 02:08, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
User-facing categories
Hello Bearcat :) !
I hope you don’t mind, but I have a question. When fixing the categories on a Wikilove template I had made, you mentioned the fact that there should be no “User-facing categories” selected for a template. Would you be able to further explain to me the differences between user-facing categories and ones that are okay for use on a template? I hope I’m not bugging you by asking. I just want to not make the same mistake again, and I can’t seem to find the answer anywhere.
Thanks for all the help! 4theloveofallthings (talk) 20:08, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

AfC draft: "Hendrik Quast"
Hello Bearcat, I saw that you checked my draft. Thank you! I'm pretty new here and saw that you have a lot of experience. Do you think I should cut out all German references? If you have any recommendations before I submit the draft for review, I'm happy to revise the article. Have a wonderful day! ArtAndLiterature (talk) 17:37, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
LGBT culture in Puerto Vallarta
Hi, Bearcat! Not sure how familiar you are with Puerto Vallarta, but I've nominated LGBT culture in Puerto Vallarta for Good status and I was wondering if you might be interested in reviewing the article before the nomination gets picked up. I'm hoping this entry could be the first GA focused on LGBT culture in a specific locale. Any feedback or article improvements are appreciated. Either way, happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:42, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
WP:DRAFTNOCAT
Hello,
I agree that draft articles should not have working categories (WP:DRAFTNOCAT). When you encounter categories in a draft article, rather than removing them outright, it is better to disable them by adding a colon between the opening square brackets and the word Category, like this: [[:Category:2001 insurgency in Macedonia]]
so that they can be restored if the article is approved. That's what I did at Draft:Battle of Lipkovo 01:58, 1 June 2023 (UTC) Eastmain (talk • contribs) 01:58, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
- I already addressed this the last time I was approached about this, it's even still visible on this very page a little bit further up. Sure, there are sometimes reasons why just disabling categories on drafts is appropriate, but there are sometimes reasons why removing categories from drafts is appropriate as well — for example, there's no value in leaving redlinked (i.e. nonexistent) categories on a draft in disabled form and then having to revisit and reclean the same redlinked category again when the draft gets moved to mainspace, and when I have to clean up dozens and dozens of drafts in one shot, wrapping all the categories adds up to a significantly longer time investment than just clicking the minus signs in HotCat does. (It may not seem like much longer from the perspective of one page, but it does turn into an excessive time burden when you're looking at dozens of pages.) I already do (and always have done) both things in different circumstances, and there's absolutely no rule that I'm not allowed to make any judgement calls. Again, I've explained the reasons above, so I won't get into all of them again, and you can read the prior discussion above — but we do not have any rule that categories on drafts must always just be disabled and can never be removed outright, and frankly I'm getting really tired of people repeatedly getting up in my grill about something that isn't a rule.

Request to undelete One Day Alive (band) page
I am writing for the deletion of One Day Alive to be reviewed. The page was edited (by unknow person) and multi cites were taken out leaving only like 2-3 cites. I will edit page to add more cites. I am proposing to reenlist page as they currently have a record contract with a subsidiary company or Warner Brother Music. They also have a record coming out being produced by the guitarist of Saving Abel. I understand that the "charting" is not Billboard but I will cite everything else that I can. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Webbelot (talk • contribs) 14:56, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
Why Niko Omilana shouldn't be deleted
In response to the comment left on Niko Omilana's wiki page, he was a popular YouTuber before attempting to be a politician, being a prominent member of the YouTube group Beta Squad with fellow YouTuber Chunkz. He recently made a video series called The Biggest Menace with YouTuber JiDion. He's also featured in multiple Sidemen videos. Whilst the draft still needs expansion before being submitted, the draft shouldn't be deleted. Silverdashmax (talk) 06:05, 8 June 2023 (UTC)
