User:HiLo48, which material was removed that you "have been using in a discussion" - check the whole article, and think very carefully before you answer.William Harris • (talk) • 09:57, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You know the answer. Please try editing here in good faith. HiLo48 (talk) 10:08, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You have failed to answer why you have removed properly cited secondary source material, and this action is not in accordance with WP:BRD. William Harris • (talk) • 10:13, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I see little point in continuing discussion on this with you. You haven't addressed the primary reason I asked you here. And I know you know what that reason is. HiLo48 (talk) 10:15, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You have not answered my reasonable question of which material was removed that you "have been using in a discussion" - your words, not mine - nor have you answered why you have removed properly cited secondary sourcing. Then you say there is "little point in continuing discussion." Have you not considered how your aberrant behaviour would look to an independent third party?

Now we have threats. Interesting approach. I see little point in continuing discussion on this with you. HiLo48 (talk) 10:49, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You would find an independent review threatening? I would not. This is very simple, take the text that you believe was removed that you "have been using in a discussion" and paste it below. I do not believe such text exists. William Harris • (talk) • 10:59, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I seek opportunities for collaborative editing here on Wikipedia, where editors constructively discuss issues with each other, without bad faith editing. I am not finding that here. I see no point in continuing discussion. Good night. HiLo48 (talk) 11:05, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I think I now know what we are dealing with. I wish you all the best for the future. Farewell! William Harris • (talk) • 11:10, 18 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Free-ranging unowned dogs

[edit]

The text stating that "urban free-ranging dogs" are "commensals, subsisting on garbage or other dog's food as their primary food sources." is likely incomplete or not entirely true. For example, I have read that the city street dogs of Santiago de Chile live primarily on food purchased for and given to them by human passersby and locals, not by scavenging. (I do not at the moment have time to track down sources.) Acwilson9 (talk) 07:19, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would endorse that comment based on personal observation, but also do not have sources. HiLo48 (talk) 07:38, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Although I am not keen on Vanak in "Dogs Canis familiarisas carnivores: Their role and function in intraguild competition", that is what the author said. Think of cities in India and Africa. I am not opposing its removal if that is what editors think. William Harris • (talk) • 09:39, 23 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Street dog with Free-ranging dog

[edit]
The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
To merge Street dog into Free-ranging dog, maintaining a separate section; overlap and context. Klbrain (talk) 10:18, 28 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The entrance sentences indicates this is a better way to comprehensively cover the subject. --stultiwikiatext me 09:25, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support we have two articles on the same thing. Traumnovelle (talk) 20:45, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose, as Street dog is a subset of Free-ranging dog, as the lede of the latter article describes. Each are well-developed and referenced, and they're linked. Readers are best served by keeping the concepts separate as they are. Klbrain (talk) 05:39, 3 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support because Street dog is a subset of Free-ranging dog, as the lede of the latter article describes. Policy reason for merge is overlap and context per WP:OVERLAP. Street dog (size=28kb) to have its own section under Free-ranging dog (size=23kb), where it can be found by search engines. Street dog to be turned into a redirect to that section. The merged article will still be only size=50kb max. 14.2.206.234 (talk) 02:11, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
