Hi there - I proposed some updates to the David Copperfield article back in February here. Since the Request edits queue seems to be stalled and you’re a member of WP:LAS, I was wondering if you’d be interested in reviewing my proposals? I can’t do it myself because of a COI. Thanks very much. MagicTech1902 (talk) 15:11, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

No, thank you. I’m not a fan. Bearian (talk) 19:28, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi Bearian. I see you’re a member of WikiProject Law. I’ve made a number of proposals to substantially improve the article about Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence, posted on the Talk page here:

Talk:Giffords_Law_Center_to_Prevent_Gun_Violence#Updates_to_Improve_Article_-_June_14,_2022. Since I have a conflict of interest, I can’t implement the changes myself. Would you possibly have time to look at these and weigh in? Thank you very much.Brooklyn1576 (talk) 17:41, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Sure, next week. Bearian (talk) 19:28, 26 August 2022 (UTC)

Long overdue - apologies, but every time I remembered, I wasn't near something on which I could drop you this line I promised to drop when we chatted at Brooklyn Public last year!

The Judas Priest song I mentioned was "Raw Deal", off of the Sin After Sin album. I don't remember the context exactly, but I think this was what I was supposed to mention..! Tduk (talk) 02:14, 16 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi Bearian. I've struck the "tenuous" comment I left on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United States v. Strong and thank you for what I take as a gentle nudge by your "thanks". Didn't see it at the time of writing but my comment could be interpreted as a cast aspersion on the sincerity of your opinion. Not what I meant, but when I looked at it again, I realised its ambiguity. I respect your opinion, although in this AfD we may have to slightly disagree. Rupples (talk) 19:40, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

:Thanks fine. I was thanking your for constructive criticism. Bearian (talk) 17:03, 6 May 2023 (UTC)

The article :Melissa Sgambelluri has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Absolutely fails WP:NSINGER.

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 {{Tlc|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 {{Tlc|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.

Hi Bearian

You mentioned that you had not found any news regarding the painter Driggu Florentino, yet I believe that your search may not have been conducted properly. I ventured to Google and was able to locate pertinent information. The lack of results likely stemmed from the manner or the location of your inquiry. I recommend attempting again with different sources or more specific search terms.

Could you reevaluate?

Hi,

I have come across a user {{u|GrandLake editor}} that seems to be problematic. I see a lot of the articles created by this user seem to be non-notable yet promotional. Quite a few of them seem to have SPA users editing them. It is possible this could be a WP:PAID issue.

::::{{U|Imcdc}}, just to be clear, my personal opinion and those of many others here, is that a conflict of interest is not something that prevents someone from editing an article, as long as the connection is disclosed. For example, two of my science articles were reviewed by Ralph Alpher, who denied their publication. That creates a negative conflict of interest, but I have disclosed it. Likewise, I'm a fan of Patti LuPone and not only edited her article, but took a candid photo of her and added it to her article. This is a positive conflict of interest, because in exchange for her signature, I got to boast about meeting her and obtained something of value. As long as any COI is disclosed, I have no problem. The only issue that's a cardinal sin for me is editing one's own BLP. Bearian (talk) 16:05, 16 December 2024 (UTC)

::::::Thanks for the info. For the time being, I have decided to first PROD the articles that don't seem have have sufficient supporting sources for notability. Imcdc Contact 05:12, 17 December 2024 (UTC)

Hey, I've noticed that you've PROD-tagged at least two Indian villages with the rationale "Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. No reliable sources online Google news, newspapers, books, or scholar. Run of the mill, very small village. Not enough information to merge. Can redirect if necessary." I'm sure you've done more, but those two happened to be on navboxes I watch, so I noticed them get unlinked after deletion. The two that I've seen, Inai and Tihawali, both show up on the 2011 Census of India, so they unquestionably meet GEOLAND, and are in fact possible to add sources to (I've restored both and done so). If you're going to keep PROD-tagging Indian villages, can you please check them at the Census first? The original site is dead, but there's an accurate and searchable mirror at [https://www.census2011.co.in census2011.co.in]. I have gotten plenty of Indian settlements deleted when they don't meet GEOLAND, so I'm well versed in verifying them. Thank you. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:10, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

:Great! Source them! Bearian (talk) 02:19, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

::If you're going to be placing PROD tags, it's your responsibility to conduct a BEFORE check and confirm they fail GEOLAND. At the very least you can trouble yourself to perform a simple search on the census website first, which will enable you to source them yourself if they are located there, and if not, then you have basically a slam-dunk rationale for deletion. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:49, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

:::Thank you. Please allow me to explain my process. I always conduct several searches before I propose deletion: especially Google books, newspapers, and news. If I find sources in English or another language that I can read, I add them (with apologies in the edit summary for any poor translation). Recent unreferenced articles on Asian and Oceania topics that I've rescued include Utaki, Thirumangalam, Chennai, Tanghalang Ateneo, Shakotan District, Hokkaido, Saroornagar Indoor Arena, Padungan, and Dilga. I also check and see if there are any articles in other languages that are relatively easy for others to translate such as (in India) Hindi and Tamil. If I find sources or another language article, but I can't translate them, I tag it with the appropriate more sources needed or translation tag, and move on. If I think that I can redirect instead to the district article, I do so. I've also reached out repeatedly on Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics–five times in as many weeks begging for help–to source unreferenced stubs. I haven't yet intentionally searched for primary sources, because they don't contribute to significant coverage, and there is a risk that a few months later another editor may nominate it for deletion or redirecting anyway, wasting my time. I only propose deletion as a last resort, when I can't find two or three secondary sources in any language. Thank you again for teaching me about the census data. As Tony Adams said, "You learn something new every day, no matter how hard you try." Bearian (talk) 03:24, 18 December 2024 (UTC)

::::I noticed that Kunamnenivaripalem was deleted today following your PROD. Your rationale, once again, gives no indication that you checked the census website. As it happens, that one was not on the census anyway, but Vellanaipatti and Seerapalayam, whose PRODs you recently endorsed, both are.

Hello Bearian,

I'm very confused as to why my page has been deleted, and specifically regarding the 'unreliable sources' issue.

I believe the issue showed up because I went in last month to update some things, and maybe I did it incorrectly. For sure it was not my intention to go against the rules of Wikipedia.

My Sincere Apology!

Also I am not clear as to exactly what show, project or statement I included that you specifically have issue with. Is it possible for you to let me know?

Please know that everything I had on my profile was 100% legit!

That being said...

Is it possible for my profile to be undeleted/reactivated with the original information that was there when my profile went live in 2013, Less The HIV Information. I'm at a point in my life where I don't want that title/label to be a prominent acknowledgment as to who I am.

Your support would be greatly appreciated!

Thank You in advance!

:{{U|Carltonrising}}, it's 2025, and you must be the last person on Earth who doesn't know that you can't just write or edit your own autobiography, Carlton Wilborn, on Wikipedia. Seriously, it's been policy for decades. Wikipedia is not a social media platform. It's run by a 501(c)(3) charity, called the Wikimedia Foundation, which has very strict guidelines forced upon it by the Internal Revenue Service. In short, it's not just "rules of Wikipedia" but also Tax Law. There are [https://www.google.com/search=carlton+wilborn some news articles about you], but they are almost entirely based off of interviews, so we can't use them for evidence of significant coverage. We can't keep out the "HIV information" because that would violate another policy: WP:NPOV. Finally, I no longer have the power to Re-create articles - I resigned as administrator 10 years ago.

Hi,

Towards the end of 2024, I was working on a project to clean up small financial institutions and investment firms. I would say most of it done now and there wasn't much pushback since many of these firms really were non-notable and it wasn't a coincidence most creators were SPA.

However it seems I have another PROD project coming up. I came across some consulting firm articles and the problem might be even worse than the previous project. I have seen multiple articles which were just blatant ads for them.

I'm letting you know in advance that there will be quite a few PROD articles coming up on your radar this or next week. I will only nominate a limited amount per day to make the workload more fair since its unreasonable to do everything in just 1-2 days. - Imcdc Contact 05:37, 12 January 2025 (UTC)

To actually convert any claimed reliable sources in an article to a reference rather than leaving as an external link? At least for one of them? Rather than just changing the tag template and doing nothing else? Particularly if you're going to have a stance in choosing to make that tag change that one of those ELs is actually a proper source to meet that criteria?

Since I noticed a couple you changed, such as Townsend & Wall, where the ELs are to not a brochure of any kind or any proof of a source and the other source is a dead link. Or Erosion corrosion of copper water tubes, where the first EL goes to a 404 error page and the second is to "The Corrosionist", which appears to be an archived version of someone's personal website from 15 years ago.

Should either of those really have the no sources tag removed? Silverseren^C 06:56, 14 January 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Bearian,

I was wondering if QuiteBearish is an alternate account of yours. It has recently become involved with reviewing PROD'd articles and PRODding ones themselves which is an activity that is only done by a handful of editors, including you. I only know of two very active accounts with Bear in their username so I thought this might be an alternate account of yours but they have no user page. If not, then it is a big coincidence that 2 of the probably 5 or 6 editors who currently spend any time reviewing PROD'd articles are "bears". If, for some reason, they are an impersonator, well, they certainly have no ill intentions! Thanks for all of the work that you do here. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 21:42, 20 January 2025 (UTC)

:No, absolutely not. My only alternative account ever has been User:Bearian'sBooties, which I only use when I'm connected to an unsafe network, and I haven't used it since July 29, 2013 in Albany. There is another "bear" account, {{U|Bearcat}}, but that isn't me, either. "Bear" a common nickname in the LGBTQ and neurodivergent communities. Bearian (talk) 01:06, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

::Yes, I'm quite familiar with Bearcat given his work with categories. So, I knew of the two of you and that Bear was a nickname it was just the overlap reviewing PRODs that I found unusual.

Hello @Bearian, I appreciate your collaboration on Wikipedia; However, I noticed you are in a conflict of interest. A conflict of interest is the incompatibility between Wikipedia's objectives of neutrality and reliability and the particular objectives of certain editors, individuals, entities, or companies of any type.

All contributions in the main space are subject to the policies of content criteria of this Wikipedia (what Wikipedia is not), encyclopedic quality (verifiability and no original research), editorial method (neutral point of view), and legitimacy of content (copyrights). All publishers are expected to abide by these policies when creating and evaluating content and to respect and assume good faith in the actions of other publishers to ensure that these policies are followed.

If you edit under a conflict of interest, you must apply the corresponding policy with special care; Otherwise, your user account could be considered private purpose and blocked.

Hi!

Thank you for your contribution on the discussion. I want to explain the situation and hear you point of view, as I believe I had not presented my ideas as I should when the petition went on. The person in question is one of the few female leaders of the country, and I put forward strong sources like Forbes, Capital and WEF. However, you message clearly stated that none of these sources mattered. I want to know why these sources are not reliable, as I do not know better publication and organizations when it comes to business people.

I also would love to know if there are sources that you can indicate as reliable, should I post them on a discussion page so that the deletion can be reconsidered?

Hi {{u|Bearian}}. Thanks for your comments at the deletion nomination for 2024 Australian Jewish doxxing incident, where you noted many sources, and in particular Newsweek, should be removed from the article. I wanted to ask, now that the nomination has closed and the article has been kept (with its existing sources no less), is there any chance you could take a look at it and remove even a couple of the sources you consider to be unacceptable? The reason I ask instead of doing it myself is that in over 16 years of editing, this is the only actively contentious article I have edited. Now that one main contributor of the article has been topic banned (see this discussion), the only two major contributors are the creator and myself, and I've found being the sole person opposing how the article was original written to be quite stressful. There's no need to look at this, but in case you're interested this is what the article looked like when I first found it: [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2024_Australian_Jewish_doxxing_incident&oldid=1270845347]. I also genuinely think the article would benefit from me not being the only person making changes, as I am no expert in any part of this. While I do occasionally completely overall abandoned and neglected articles or even create new ones, day to day about I'm mostly a WikiGnome and am really out of my comfort zone here. I'm not asking you to become a regular editor or even to watch the article (though both would of course be appreciated), rather just to look at it once and decide to remove any sources that are inappropriate. I note you're currently under stress (as am I!) and also taking a Wikibreak, so I'll understand if you can't do this. There's no rush though. Nobody else (understandably) wants to touch the article so the problematic sources will almost certainly still be there once your break is finished. I hope you are having a nice day.

I noticed that you blanked this article and redirected it to the target article Rancagua. Unfortunately, the target article does not seem to mention the redirect title, so the redirect is likely to be deleted on that basis.

That would be essentially a backdoor deletion of the original Colegio Tomás Guaglén article. It would have been better to send it straight to WP:AFD, or just let the WP:PROD run its course.

:I wouldn't be so annoyed - except (1) the Heritage Foundation meat puppets have been harassing me and others for weeks, (2) I've taken multiple and repeated efforts to disclose every single possible remote conflict of interest and point of view in multiple locations from my main user page to WP:AfD and the talk pages of possibly contentious articles, and (3) unlike some people, I'm here to create an encyclopedia, which over 200 articles created, close to 90,000 edits, and hundreds of article rescues.

::How do I get in on being a recipient of Heritage Foundation harassment? What articles are involved? I would love to waste their time trying to bother me. I find it super pathetic and hilarious on their part. Silverseren^C 22:47, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

:::Lol. Bearian (talk) 03:02, 16 March 2025 (UTC)

::::No, but seriously though, which articles are they complaining about? Silverseren^C 03:26, 16 March 2025 (UTC)

:::::Probably Mark Zaid, but I don't know what sets off trolls. I merged/redirected a couple of articles recently. If you look at the talk page, I disclosed that we've been acquainted for over 30 years: we were columnists for the student newspaper. Zaid was in the news recently for Trump yanking his security clearance. To reduce my stress IRL, I avoid editing in contentious areas, and mostly stick to AfD, Prod, and article assessment, but this is an old friend who's been maligned for no good reason.

Respectfully, I didn't find the repetition of your prod2 rationale very helpful, and it doesn't answer my concern. I understood what you wrote originally, and I am keen for the article to be deleted. But I don't think that PROD, which will only soft-delete the article, is sufficient, because it could be restored in the future on request, with all its attendant copyvios (and all the other problems too). Cheers, SunloungerFrog (talk) 14:34, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

:Ok. No problem. Chill. Bearian (talk) 23:17, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

Bearian -- thanks for getting that article properly referenced then saved.

There's been a Spanish IP tagging 10-20 software articles for proposed deletion some days. It's not malicious -- the articles are inadequately referenced. The problem is that 50 to 70% of the time, I can find at least a page in a book using Google Books or a paper using Google Scholar.

I'm hunting refs and adding them as fast as I can but I can't keep up with this person. I may spend 30 minutes (or more) on an article that IP spent 30 seconds tagging.

I'd like to communicate with the IP but their Orange IP changes multiple times a day so there's no way to leave a message asking them to slow down and suggesting reference sources.

I've been tagging recently PROD'd article talk pages with relevant WikiProjects in hopes one of the projects will pay attention. I've also added {prodded} templates at WikiProject Deletion sorting/Software#Proposed deletions (WP:PROD). You can see the 14 that remain from 3/26 and 3/28 PRODS.

There are 25 of these PRODs for 3/29 so far and the day's not over.

I'm sort of a deletionist but I hate to see salvageable content going out the door.

Any suggestions?

Hello Bearian. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of :Draft:Bibrave Boy, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: U5 does not apply to DRAFT space. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 01:12, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

:Ok. Bearian (talk) 01:15, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi Bearian, thanks for your welcome message! It's been fun learning about all the different areas of Wikipedia. I've been making edit requests, and I have one for Brian Chesky that I would love some additional feedback on if you are interested. If not, I totally understand, and appreciate the warm welcome! Cheers PY Airbnb (talk) 21:37, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

I see you chimed in at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michael Dorf (entrepreneur), which just got closed with delete. Am I misreading it, or did only three people post under it - the original nominator, you, and a recent commenter who seemed to weakly suggest delete+merge content. As far as I can see none of the content was merged (don't know if it was any good as I don't think I ever saw the page), but even so, (and even though I may easily have agreed to delete the page) is such a low volume response to an AfD considered consensus these days? or did I miss something? Tduk (talk) 21:52, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

:I'm not getting involved because I have disclosed a potential conflict of interest, namely that I'm friends-of-friends with the subject. It's very common for only 3 to 6 editors to get involved with low-controversy topics. Again, I did not !vote either way. You are free to appeal the matter, but I've almost never used the system, and have forgotten how to do so. You are also free to merge the articles because anyone who is a confirmed editor can do it. Bearian (talk) 22:11, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

::Oh, no, I'm not particularly concerned with this instance, I'm just wondering if this is how it goes these days. Participation from 2 uninvolved users, one of whom was the nominator, doesn't seem like that strong of a consensus to me. Note that I can't merge them now because I only saw the AfD because the admin unlinked some articles I was watching which linked to this one. I don't think I ever saw the actual article, only the AfD. I'm not too bothered about this case, just worried if it's not the only one. Tduk (talk) 22:14, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

:::It seems to be rare. I avoid certain topics, sports being the biggest, where I don't get involved. Marcus Aurelius wrote something about [https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/685645-you-always-own-the-option-of-having-no-opinion-there not needing an opinion on everything]. As I said, it's rare to have only two uninvolved editors voting. Bearian (talk) 22:22, 2 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I would have made this comment on the AFD but it was closed early by a good-faith but new editor (for which I reproached them on their talk page ... but I've checked and can't find anything at WP:OUTCOMES about BLP subjects requesting deletion. Did I miss something, or did you mean to link somewhere else? I'm curious for my own edification about the case you mentioned where Jimbo was involved. Graham87 (talk) 01:57, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

:The link has been over sighted. It was a 2007 AfD. It's one of only two AfDs that I'm aware of that have been memory holed. Bearian (talk) 02:00, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

::I'm not aware of any policy; I'm going with my experience of engaging in thousands of AfD discussions, {{U|Graham87}}. Bearian (talk) 02:02, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

In the very off-chance you care (I would've said this on the AfD if I saw it in time), the deleted edits by the creator were copies of that article on their userpage and sandbox, which were deleted as G13. Cheers, charlotte ^👸♥ 09:24, 6 April 2025 (UTC)

I had been meaning to reach out about how I can solve the problem of candidates who do not meet GNG being erroneously found to meet GNG because of run of the mill election coverage in which they are mentioned. There is now a discussion that I found entirely on accident Wikipedia_talk:Notability_(people)#Unelected_political_candidates_with_notable_coverage. Given how into the Wikipedia one has to get to find it, I wanted to call your attention to it as an AfD contributor. I also feel that this ties in with your Big 4 Concerns.
