AfD on Open access in Canada
Hi,

I've closed the AfD on Open access in Canada and bundled it with a mass AfD with containing 80 pages by the same user. Just thought I'd notify you so you can voice your opinion there.

Thanks,

Hasdie Hasnan
Please be aware I've been discussing with someone looking to recreate the article, which has led me to tinker with the protection settings, so I could leave a note for other admins. See here. Cheers, --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 14:06, 13 July 2017 (UTC)

Draft:GEORGE FRAMPTON
Just curious. Did you or anyone else from AFC steer this person in the right direction of finding sources? From looking at their talk page, all you did was bombard them with robo-messages. While noting that you left comments on the draft page, nothing I saw appeared to address this concern and instead smacked of a thinly-veiled WP:BITE exercise. A lot of this problem would go away if we didn't brainwash people into believing that it's okay to keep encyclopedic content at the level of one particular person's low-hanging Google-search fruit on one particular day, because the "sources" I saw are exactly the sort of thing which would turn up at the top of such a Google search.

As for better sourcing, I didn't check the NYT because I tried earlier for something else and their website wasn't compatible with my slow wi-fi connection. Instead, I checked the news archive site for the Anchorage Daily News (or is that not good enough?). It returned the following hits: three from 1986, one each from 1989 through 1991, fifteen from 1993, two each from 1994 and 1995, seven from 1996, two each from 1999 and 2000, and one each from 2001 and 2003. The majority of them concern his role as Assistant Secretary of the Interior and here we have Category:United States Assistant Secretaries of the Interior. Having looked over WP:CATDEF recently, I can see how it could be interpreted as an excuse to create categories not because the position forms a basis for notability, but rather to puff up the articles of 21st-century media-darling politicians who are deemed notable for other reasons. Still, I'm not sure that can pass a smell test. It's pretty blatantly obvious to me that someone who was an assistant cabinet secretary and president of the Wilderness Society was the subject of significant media attention by news outlets a whole lot larger than the ADN.

While I'm at it, another question. You and/or informed how many WikiProjects or other potentially interested editors of the existence of this draft? Looks to me like there's plenty of editors on here who love to write about heroes of the environmental movement. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 00:56, 14 July 2017 (UTC)

Montgomeryshire Architecture
Because nobody offered a reason not to use "Buildings and structures", and because that's clearly the naming convention, I've closed the "Montgomeryshire Architecture" CFD (Categories for discussion/Log/2017 June 28) as "move to Category:Buildings and structures in Montgomeryshire". I've intentionally ignored the Powys-Montgomeryshire issue, since that's not so clear-cut, and I've started a new discussion specifically to address that issue. Please visit Categories for discussion/Log/2017 July 17 (bottommost section) to offer your opinions. Nyttend (talk) 04:44, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Airport Road article deletion
Why was the article deleted based on a "longest street in the world" claim? Nowhere was that even mentioned in the article--as I stated in the commentary! Transportfan70 (talk) 13:23, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

External Links: Ramadan Ramadani
Hello Bearcat -- Is your objection to the use of a YouTube as an External Link, or its use in general? This article will fall flat without the references I think are in that video. I don't speak the language, so I cannot be sure what's there. We need a native speaker to take a look. I saved this article at least temporarily. It would be sad to see the record of an artist just disappear. Rhadow (talk) 01:01, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

IMDb
Just a note with regards to. The IMDb is user-generated content, and thus not a reliable source. Per infobox film, we give priority to reliable databases (such as the AFI Catalog of Feature Films, British Film Institute, and European Audiovisual Observatory) and trade magazines (such as Variety and Screen International).

Hay Fever
Hi. I see that you added information about a revival, but I have removed it for now because of a number of problems: First, the references are incomplete, missing the name of the writers of the articles and the page numbers in the newspapers on which the articles appeared (or, in the alternative, a url where one can find each article). Second, you did not indicate if the production was mounted by a professional producer, or was just something the family did for fun. Third, you did not mention what theatre the production premiered in, and how many performances were included in that production before it when on tour. Fourth, you did not indicate where the production toured in 2003, and to what theatres, for how many performances. All of this information is needed to determine if the production was a significant, long-running professional production that satisfies WP:NOT. All the best! -- Ssilvers (talk) 05:03, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of The_Bighead


The article The_Bighead has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Luther "Snake Boy" Johnson
Could you please take a look at this article, User talk:Babrinson77, and the most recent internal e-mail sent to me by said editor. I do not want to get into an edit war, but it seems that the other editor can not take "no" for an answer. Plus, there appears to WP:COI and the matter of the abusive and derogatory language used in the e-mail. The editor is seemingly only interested in the above topic. I am not happy and would rather an admin took a peek, as there seems to be only the two of us regularly contributing to Johnson's article. This matter has rumbled along for several months now. Many thanks,

Sugarboy (musician)
Good day Bearcat, I received a notification that the page i created has been deleted Sugarboy (musician). According to my research Sugarboy AFD, the page was nominated and deleted due to it fails WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO the AFD discussion was closed 05:53, 7 March 2017 (UTC). Actually i don′t really know were it all started from so i cant give all information about Sugarboy first deletion. I recreated the page Sugarboy (musician) I was not active to contest for the speedy deletion, I just came online and found out that the page has been deleted via a speedy deletion, that is why it was deleted secondly. I believe the page was not supposed to be deleted it does not matter either the page was previously deleted. The deleted page Sugarboy (musician) passes WP:GNG and WP:MUSICBIO I believe its different from the previous deleted version because i made a research on Sugarboy Wikipedia previous deleted page on Google Search Engine. When it comes to WP:GNG, Sugarboy (musician) has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent, He has been discussed in newspaper like Premium Times  like Naij  Especially The Punch Newspaper. Talking about WP:MUSICBIO Sugarboy (musician) passes few rules mentioned including his Musical Awards which he has been nominated and won, more references can be find on Google Search Engine.

I hope with this point of view Sugarboy (musician) can be restored and also other user who are interested in the deletion of Sugarboy (musician) should be informed about the references.

Category for films
Hi Bearcat, I was checking the films category tree under Category:Films by technology and we do have a Category:Camcorder films, which could very well take in all the gadget made films, possibly with a wider definition, or if necessary, by renaming it accordingly. I am leaving for a wikivacation tomorrow and I won't be able to comment any futher at the CfD, but I think it's really worth considering, so I leave it up to you. Cheers.

John Delaney presidential campaign, 2020
I asked the closer of the AfD to explain the closing, and the reply after a week is the empty set. I believe this should go to DRV, as the discussion was progressing, and there was no need to cut off the discussion. But I would like to verify that there is some support for reviewing this closing. Do you support re-opening this AfD? Thank you, Unscintillating (talk) 17:29, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages
Hello, Bearcat. I've noticed a fair number of edits by you that resemble this one -- where another editor has mistakenly removed a Disambiguation template from a page, and then you have come along and tagged it as "Uncategorized." It would be more helpful if you would revert the incorrect edit, or at least replace the Disambiguation template, instead of leaving the pages in this broken state. Thanks for considering this. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 14:16, 17 August 2017 (UTC)
