Caution about new editor

Also pinging @Conyo14: I am writing regarding this discussion. Last time it turned out that editor was a sockpuppet of Kaepertank when it claimed to work for the Ottawa Senators. So caution is advised. – sbaio 04:18, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

@Sbaio were any editing patterns similar between the two, or was it just the COI? Conyo14 (talk) 04:43, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

Not enough edits at this point, but editor's listed interests give red flags. – sbaio 04:47, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

I strongly doubt that the OHL employee has any connection to Kaepertank. Flibirigit (talk) 18:16, 9 March 2026 (UTC)

LeBrun and Miller

Agree to disagree regarding the encyclopedic value of their public positions that Orthodox Christians should, applying their logic, not be permitted employment. Such a view is unconstitutional in the US (one reason why the NHL and Flyers did/could not do anything and no sports leagues do when this happens), and a view that LeBrun and Miller should be remembered for as being on the wrong side of history. ~2026-20488-50 (talk) 15:02, 3 April 2026 (UTC)

WP:EPONYMOUS

Before adding a category to an eponymous category, as you did at Category:Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, please make sure that the category is appropriate under Wikipedia's categorization guidelines and is consistent with WP:EPONYMOUS.

An eponymous category is a category named after a subject that contains pages associated with that subject. For example, an eponymous category about a person, place, organization, or work may contain articles about related people, events, works, history, or other topics connected with that subject, not just the main article itself.

Because of that, adding a category to an eponymous category means that the added category should make sense for the contents of the eponymous category as a whole, not just for the subject it is named after. In general, the added category should apply to all or nearly all of the pages in the eponymous category.

For example, a category such as establishments in YEAR may apply to the subject itself, but usually will not apply to every page in the eponymous category, so it is usually not appropriate to add it there. Please also make sure that any category you add already exists. Categories that do not meet these requirements may be removed. Thank you. ^SMason_Garrison 02:37, 11 June 2026 (UTC)
