American black bear

How is my American black bear edit not helpful? I wrote every single word correctly Eiehel (talk) 16:02, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It did not add any helpful information to the article. Can you cite a reference that uses that name instead of the names listed? - UtherSRG (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Should the citing be from any website or from Wikipedia itself? Eiehel (talk) 17:52, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:CIRCULAR, the reference must be outside. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:21, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Olivergrandeee (08:36, 7 November 2024)

Hello! I was wondering if you could help me upload a photo to Wikicommons? The photo is from a YouTube video and I’m unsure of the proper licensing and how to correctly format it :) --Olivergrandeee (talk) 08:36, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you are taking a screen cap, it is likely a non-free image. Have you tried the WP:File Upload Wizard? I'm not knowledgable in more than that for files. You can try the WP:Teahouse. - - UtherSRG (talk) 11:56, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent reversion of a deletion in the article Muskox

Hello. Recently I deleted this line from the article Muskox, which you restored by deleting my edit:

Muskoxen were introduced to Svalbard in 1925–26 and 1929, but this population died out in the 1970s.

The reason I did delete it for, is because the exact same information is conveyed in an earlier text just a few sentences above it:

An attempt to introduce the muskox to Svalbard also failed. Seventeen animals were released in 1929 by Adventfjorden on West Spitsbergen. In 1940, the herd numbered 50, but in the 1970s, the whole herd disappeared.

By the way, the sentence I deleted was actually added by me, with the same source (Aulagnier et al, 2008), when I created the subsection "Reintroductions in Eurasia". The other text was added by a different user at a later time, expanding the information about Norway but without caring if some of that was already present and became repeated as a result.

I now realize that the other user didn't add any sources however, even if what they say is compatible with what I've read on the subject. I'm not sure how to proceed, so I won't edit it, but I think the current text should be left as is, with the repetition.--Menah the Great (talk) 17:08, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah! Sorry, by your edit summary I thought you were deleting it because you thought Svalbad == Iceland, because where you deleted it from also mentioned Iceland. You could check the existing sources and see if they support the other editor's addition, and not that with the appropriate ref tag. - UtherSRG (talk) 18:47, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
