Ex-wives
Ok, clearly this paragraph was not written as it should be, so I'm rewriting...I'm assuming the 3 wives part is factually accurate, but if it's not someone feel free to fix that as well.Doregasm 22:56, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

I have removed the un-encyclopedic aspects of the wives section of the article. This included the removal of subjective terms such as "bimbo" and "trophy wife". I also removed off topic discussion by the editor referring to the approximate age of these wives. Lastly, I removed clear references to the editor's own opinion such as "this thought disgusts me". I have not changed facts such as the wives' names however do encourage another editor to find sources for these names. Billpeanut 8:54, 24 October 2006 (UTC)


 * All that is sourced so far is the name of his current wive, Christine, and that the mother of one of his daughters is named Myrna. It does look like the whole issue of his marriages fails The Prime Notability Criterion. -- Donald Albury 20:46, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Ex-wives issue ... again
This issue has appeared again, and I have reverted this edit for the following reasons:
 * The names of the wives don't belong as per WP:BIO. Naming the first two wives doesn't appear to add any significant value to the article and their privacy outweighs any insignificant value that might exist. (Additionally, WP:BIO states "When evaluating the inclusion or removal of names, their publication in secondary sources other than news media, such as scholarly journals or the work of recognized experts, should be afforded greater weight than the brief appearance of names in news stories." So the NYT source for the previous wives MIGHT be acceptable, but the blog entry that the editor used for the current wife is certainly not.)
 * Including unsourced statements that someone's new spouse is the same age as the person's own child provides NO value to this article and is inappropriate. Even if it was sourced it still wouldn't.  shirulashem     (talk)   16:17, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
 * I had also reverted these same changes and I have the same issue. While sources are necessary, wrapping personal commentary around a source that does not include the characterizations made does not make the addition valid. Alansohn (talk) 16:58, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

medcab request
A request for informal mediation was filed on this article. Do any issues remain to be mediated, or should I close the request? Geoff Plourde (talk) 05:29, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * Dispute has resolved, so you can close it. Thank you for the follow-up.  shirulashem     (talk)   12:57, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
 * No problem. I wish the best in the new year! Geoff Plourde (talk) 19:23, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Sad one ...
... one of the last of the figures involved in the '67 expansion; I think David Molson is the last one left.   Ravenswing   21:23, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
