Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. Blackbirdxd (talk) 14:39, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The article The 9 on Yahoo! has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable show, unsourced, fails GNG

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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. – Broccoli & Coffee ^{(Oh hai)} 19:29, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Barkeep: I am reaching out in regards to your concern about the latest edits on the MidFirst Bank Wiki page. Specific to the Community Involvement section, can you provide input and guidance as to how the "advertising tone" should be modified/adjusted to better align with Wiki standards. The recent updates were not subjective or opinions; rather they are verifiable against a published reliable source (and were cited). Your counsel is appreciated. Thank you.

10/6/21 - Barkeep: I am following up to the earlier inquiry regarding your concern about the latest edits on the MidFirst Bank Wiki page. Specific to the Community Involvement section, can you provide input and guidance as to how the "advertising tone" should be modified/adjusted to better align with Wiki standards. The recent updates were not subjective or opinions; rather they are verifiable against a published reliable source (and were cited). Your counsel is appreciated. Thank you.

I would start by reading WP:PROMOTION and WP:ORGCRIT (not on the company itself but the type of content) on what should be included in Wikipedia as well as WP:UNDUE as there seems to be an emphasis on touting the article subject's local community involvement. If it is a notable thing to be included it will be covered and cited by reliable secondary sources (a reference from MidFirst would be a primary source) and the coverage would extend beyond routine news coverage. Also it also appears, based on the editing patterns, that you (being an individual or a group of people editing under various IP addresses) have a conflict of interest on the subject. Moreover, there were also claims in the community involvement that weren't supported by the references provided, thus that content was removed.

As an aside I would recommend creating an account for better communication (among other things). Barkeep^Chat 16:27, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just a reminder that your signature contains obsolete font tags. They create Linter errors, and it is advised that you change your signature to [[User:Barkeep|<span style="color:Purple;">'''''Barkeep'''''</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Barkeep|''Chat'']]</sup> ASAP.

The purpose of this message is because Linter errors affect the way the page looks, and with a lot of errors, the page may render badly. To reduce Linter errors, please change your signature.

If the software doesn't accept my replacement signature, let me know, and if that's the case, unfortunately you may have to change it to something else. Sheep (talk) 13:31, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. Hate to bug you. I posted this question over on NPP. It's not just limited to roads, but also other items. Without belaboring the issue here on your talk page, and understanding I hate bringing stuff to the drama boards, it has reached a point (with several admins opposing what I consider core WP policy), that it needs to be addressed. Since this is not limited to a single individual, but involves numerous editors and admins, where would you suggest I bring it up? Onel5969 ^{TT me} 22:38, 29 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Onel5969: Before replying, I wanted to check first to see if you were intending to message me and not User:Barkeep49. Thanks. Barkeep^Chat 19:31, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Dagnabit. My apologies. I was intending to message Barkeep49, and will leave a message there. But your input is certainly welcome as well. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:57, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Barkeep. Thank you for your message. The edits I made to the page about me I did so because it was brought to my attention that there was a lot of inaccuracies. When I went to the page, that was correct. A lot of the details about my triathlon career were inaccurate. All of the edits I made were from my official website, where the race results are accurate and verifiable. I am happy to discuss this more if you feel it is appropriate. Thanks. 203.164.116.137 (talk) 19:59, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Barkeep:

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
