Thanks for your help



Thanks for your help with the Brantford 99ers ↗ and adding reliable sources to many other junior ice hockey ↗ teams. I could also use help with the senior ice hockey ↗ teams and Allan Cup Hockey ↗ if you have time! Flibirigit (talk) 17:16, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

British Columbia Hockey League


Hi, thank you for your contributions. I note your recent revert at this article.

Rather than deleting this section, perhaps you could write a paragraph more accurately explaining what happened to the Vees? The article as it reads today doesn't touch on the subject at all. 162 etc. (talk) 23:14, 22 June 2025 (UTC)

:I also note your recent edits at Penticton Vees (junior A) ↗, which I've reverted. Can you cite sources that more clearly explain the relationship between the former team and the new WHL team? 162 etc. (talk) 00:18, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
::The BCHL is independent of the WHL and the existence of a Penticton WHL franchise doesn't automatically negate the pre-existing BCHL franchise. The BCHL stated, on its website, "Vees ownership will retain its membership in the BCHL and will look to relocate in the near future".<ref>{{cite press release |title=BCHL statement on Penticton and Chilliwack WHL expansion |date=24 March 2025 |work=bchl.ca |url=https://bchl.ca/bchl-statement-on-penticton-and-chilliwack-whl-expansion |access-date=14 July 2025}}</ref> This confirms the BCHL franchise still ''exists'' and is merely seeking a new home, not that it has ceased to be. In the interest of accuracy, we should avoid definitive statements about the BCHL Vees' ultimate fate until a relocation is officially announced. <span style="transform:rotate(-5deg);display:inline-block;color:red">Buf<span style="transform:rotate(10deg);display:inline-block;color:blue">fal</span>kill</span> (talk) 04:03, 15 July 2025 (UTC) <span style="transform:rotate(-5deg);display:inline-block;color:red">Buf<span style="transform:rotate(10deg);display:inline-block;color:blue">fal</span>kill</span> (talk) 04:03, 15 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm sorry that I've had to open a bot request relating to many of your edits; please see {{section link|Wikipedia:Bot requests|Mass-removal of WikiProject categories added directly in wikicode to talk pages}}. Try not to worry too much; this mistake can be undone relatively easily with the right tools. I'm sorry that you seemed to go to all the effort to add the categories manually though.
