Mass categorization
You may not be aware that cryptozoology is a deprecated pseudoscience, and categorizing creatures of legend, rumor and folklore as cryptids isn’t appropriate or encyclopedic. - LuckyLouie (talk) 02:20, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * You said "You may not be aware that cryptozoology is a deprecated pseudoscience, and categorizing creatures of legend, rumor and folklore as cryptids isn’t appropriate or encyclopedic" but that's what cryptids are. If you're not going to let someone add cryptids to the cryptid category, then why does the category exist? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.11.197.239 (talk) 17:35, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
 * There has been a lot of work done on this category in recent years, mostly by User:Bloodofox. If you look at Category:Cryptids you can see it's defined as a term used by cryptozoology proponents, however just because it's used to describe a certain legendary creature on a web page somewhere on the internet doesn't mean we can use it in the article about that legendary creature. For that, we need high quality sources that are not part of cryptozoology (WP:RS, WP:FRIND) to be cited. For example, Nain rouge is an old legend of Detroit. Just because it's listed in The Encyclopedia of Cryptozoology (or similar) as a cryptid, we cannot categorize it as such. Wikipedia's job is not to blindly report what pseudoscience publications say, it's to report what independent third-party sources have said about what pseudoscience publications have said. So something like Jersey Devil can be classified as a cryptid because this designation was made notable by it's discussion in independent sources. - LuckyLouie (talk) 18:04, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I'm CyanoTex. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Molly of Denali, but you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. CyanoTex (talk) 20:07, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
