Talk:St. Jacobs, Ontario

Fair use rationale for Image:St Jacobs logo.gif
Image:St Jacobs logo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

 * Well, I guess the logo was deleted because I do not see it in the article now. Peter K Burian (talk) 23:16, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Should the article discuss Home Hardware?
I added that content and someone deleted it all. I added it again.

The key to resolving issues like this is the discuss them here.


 * I vote to keep the Home Hardware content. This company is the single most important aspect of St. Jacobs, aside from the Farmers' Market. Peter K Burian (talk) 22:49, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Support - Both photos are important and are supported by text in the article. Magnolia677 (talk) 10:56, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Proposal to Update Infobox: Change "Forward Sortation Area" to "Postal Code"
I would like to draw attention to a discrepancy in the infobox regarding the postal code information. Currently, the infobox states that the "Forward sortation area" for St. Jacobs is "N0B 2N0". However, it's important to note that "N0B 2N0" is actually the full postal code for the community of St. Jacobs, not just the Forward Sortation Area (FSA).

To clarify, a "Forward Sortation Area" refers to the first three characters of a Canadian postal code, while the full postal code includes additional characters that specify a more precise location. In the case of St. Jacobs, the correct Forward Sortation Area is "N0B", which encompasses not only St. Jacobs but also the entirety of Wellington County & Rural Waterloo Region.

In light of this, I propose updating the infobox by changing the term "Forward Sortation Area" to "Postal Code" to accurately reflect the postal designation for St. Jacobs.

I welcome input and discussion from other editors on this proposed change.
