Untitled[edit]

Most of this information came from the UBC page on her so it's pretty canned. I think there should be some information here about her actions while at UBC, particularly in trying to build it up as a research institution, but I just don't know enough about that stuff to do so. Please add it if you do. TastyCakes 04:54, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Salary Info[edit]

Should her salary really be on this page? I can't think of any other biographies on Wikipedia that have salary. TastyCakes 02:45, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Bort[edit]

People keep adding then removing Bort - her imaginary friend. What is the consensus on having a reference to Bort in this article? -Etienne 07:47, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Too many names[edit]

This is ridiculous. About 25% of the article is listing names of the Trilateral Commission, and the tone of the paragraph seems critical.

Agreed, way too much information on the trilateral commision. If people are interested in it they should follow the link, Piper's page shouldn't be dominated by an organisation she has only been a part of for a few months. TastyCakes 16:08, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That's consensus enough for me. I'm deleting it. Zweifel 23:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, hey, you did it already. Good for you! Zweifel 23:53, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ya, delete first ask questions later is what I say ;) TastyCakes 19:21, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I decided either to delete the "tri-polar" world blurb or to add "left-wing rag" in front of Georgia Straight. At the end, the more sensible alternative prevailed. ;-) Kelvinc 10:26, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reference requested about budget deficit[edit]

The UBC 2006-2007 budget summary says that they expect to "have an unrestricted deficit of $10.9 million". The source is available here (page 2):
