Why doesn't this have Ratbert?

edit

This really should have Ratbert in the characters list, because he is a major character in Dilbert. 56KPK (talk) 11:27, 12 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Not only Ratbert but Catbert. The eminent web-site dilbert.com maintains a full list of seventeen Fishing Publication (talk) 19:07, 27 February 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Fishing Publication, both Ratbert and Catbert are listed in the article. Schazjmd (talk) 19:14, 27 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

That poll

The Poll That Did in Dilbert Creator Scott Adams Is Even Dumber Than You Can Imagine Doug Weller talk 19:23, 28 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

Really Slate news circular-referencing New York Times namecalling is the best they have against this poll ? I've heard the argument that It's okay to be white is a dogwhistle or invalid because it apparently originated on 4chan, if this is true, I really am not sure that the man on the Clapham omnibus would be familiar with this esoteric internet lore (and respond to poll questions in accordance) ... this is like when people on the Right talk about the coroner's report which described George Floyd if I remember correctly as having traces of fentanyl, methamphetamine and so on at the time of his death -- you can cast aspersions about technical subjects but the principle is the same, the issue is there (police brutality, anti-White hatred) and we should talk openly and honestly about it -- my two cents. If you're looking for support to include this in the article, I don't oppose it, we should also include anything from Rasmussen if they've issued a statement (from what I understand the poll has been widely discussed) or an opposing perspective Fishing Publication (talk) 13:02, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Dilbert.com now redirects to Linktree but Wikipedia rejects the domain

edit

Hello, The provided link Dilbert.com which resolved as recently as a few days ago to an archive of Dilbert strips going back into the 90s has started redirecting to a Linktree page with the name Scott Adams. I have included this information in the infobox -- but I can't provide the link, because the domain is forbidden. Can any administrator kindly do this ? Fishing Publication (talk) 17:40, 13 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

The url has been unresponsive for at least 2 months now, no redirect, nothing. I've amended the text to reflect this.
The domain registration doesn't expire until 22 Jan 2024 which is why I've left the url rather than simply deleting it - in case it is brought back to life in some manner.

According to sources I found (including our article on Scott Adams), Dilbert has been moved to Adams' own Locals site and is no longer available on dilbert.com. ~Anachronist (talk) 05:08, 27 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, found out that info and came back to update the article but I see that you've done that. Thanks. 220.235.82.123 (talk) 03:53, 29 August 2023 (UTC) (a hang-glider pilot!)Reply
