Ussuri Cat

Hi Seduisant. Thanks for your invitation to comment on the Ussuri cat.

  • I did not find any reference to this "hybrid" in the Cat SG library;
  • Geptner and Sludskii do not mention this "landrace" in the Amur Forest Cat chapter;
  • I know of only one observation of a Prionailurus species (rubiginosus in Sri Lanka) and a domestic cat mating in the wild; therefore do not categorically exclude the possibility that a wild Amur leopard cat and a domestic cat produced offspring. BUT:
  • since the Ussuri cat article is highly speculative, relying on hearsay and repeating forum entries such as this one, a blocked site and one or two more, I do not at all object to its deletion.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Phantom cat, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Puma (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

cats as meat

I'm a little surprised by your summary reversion of my section on cats as meat. Certainly, one could put in various sources but since the link "Cat Meat", where I took the data from, is already in the tiny paragraph, I just thought a little paragraph there on the page would be useful. If you really think its so contentious it must be immediately removed, I certainly can't be bothered with it. So be it.

Oh, never mind, I'm being a Grumpy Dragon. I'm sure you think you are doing the right thing by Wikipedia, trying to make people make it right first time etc. I don't see it that way, I'm a WikiDragon and I slap things in on impulse, in seconds, as I surf my way through, in a passing thought. - I might summon the willpower to do it right, or I might not- either way it won't end the world.

Inspired by your action I lifted a section, refs and all, from Cat and put it into Hearing Range, which amuses me as it puts a contradiction in my new Cat section, complete with contradictory refs, saying cats have the wider range immediately over the Dog section, claiming dogs have a wider range. What fun Wikipedia can be!

Best Wishes,

your feedback

Hi Seduisant! You surely know that in the past I inserted links to the article about poaching in quite a number of articles. And recently started working on this, a delicate subject, the more so as I keep getting quite scathing comments from a new user, both on the article's talk page, and on my talk page. See also the latest revision in regards using ref Muth and Bowe 1998. Only if you are interested and have time for this at all: I'd highly appreciate your feedback. Please reply here.

Collaboration of Punks

HEY HO, LET'S GO!!!

Punk rockers—As you know, the Ramones are undeniably the first punk rock band, so it is vital to this genre that we collaborate to improve their scope! So far, I have worked on the band's first three albums, and it would be awesome if all the punks on Wiki would aid in expanding/cleaning the Ramones articles. You can see my progress here.
Please fellow fans, do this for the old-school punk.

editing Carl Tanzler

while I am sure you like to act god with information. can you please stop reverting my addition to the "In popular culture" I am not "soapboxing" I have found a decent song which sold very well within its market which also happens to be about the article in question - I added it because I like being able to find songs by artists who were inspired by strange things and I was going to add more but already I have to piss about with making sure the original thing isn't removed. and when people like you remove stuff like that from wikipedia it makes people like me annoyed. so we can either remove that "in popular culture" section completely or you leave it as it was intended - to showcase the artistry inspired by that story. it's not upto you to decide which artists were worthy of being inspired by this story and I was surprised there weren't more artists in that list but now I know why.

you do not decide what is and what is not culture. thankyou. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.249.46.53 (talk) 00:07, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Felidae

I note that you reversed my edit re the number of extant species.

If there are 41 species, then the list in the article is wrong, as it only shows 40 species. [You will note that the Iriomote cat is clearly shown as a subspecies of the Leopard cat, which agrees with the article on the Iriomote cat.]

An article that is not internally consistent is obviously wrong.Glevum (talk) 16:16, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Adrianne Wadewitz Memorial edit-a-thons

Adrianne Wadewitz edit-a-thons in Southern New England

As you may have already heard, the Wikipedia community lost an invaluable member of the community last month. Adrianne Wadewitz was a feminist scholar of 18th-Century British literature, and a prolific editor of the site. As part of a worldwide series of tributes, New England Wikimedians, in conjunction with local institutions of higher learning, have created three edit-a-thons that will be occurring in May and June. The events are as follows:

We hope that you will be able to join us, whether you are an experienced editor or are using Wikipedia for the first time.

Cat years

Since you are a regular I won't template you. But it is inappropriate (even against policy) to remove legitimate templates. Some things in the article are not sourced, notably the table with all the data. Thank you for watching the article, but please respect standard procedures on Wikipedia and discuss on the talk page if you disagree. Thanks. 75.177.156.78 (talk) 13:30, 30 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Siberian Tiger

thanks for the head up. I have reverted his changes. If problems persist I will apply for a longer protection period. Thanks again for protecting the page from vandalism.

--Harizotoh9 (talk) 11:05, 24 August 2014 (UTC).[reply]

This was just a very quick start of an article. The goal is to just get enough sources so that it won't be challenged with deletion. Feel free to expand it. --Harizotoh9 (talk) 04:52, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
