AFD
And as I've told you before, I use Twinkle to initiate AFD discussions — and Twinkle is supposed to automatically notify the creator of the nominated page as part of the nomination process. And while there can occasionally be a system bug whereby Twinkle fails to properly complete a step for some technical reason outside of my control, I still have no special responsibility to have gone out of my way to double check whether it properly notified you or not after the fact: with Twinkle, I'm allowed to hit the "submit" button and then walk away without doing anything else.

As valuable and important as notifications are, it is ultimately your responsibility to watchlist any articles you feel strongly about, and/or monitor the deletion sorting queues for subject areas you're interested in. If you depend solely on notifications, you are going to miss out on things — sometimes automated tools screw up even when being used by conscientious editors, and sometimes newer editors don't know that notification is even encouraged in the first place. And, in fact, while notification is certainly encouraged, there actually is no rule dictating that it's mandatory. So it's ultimately your responsibility to check WikiProject Deletion sorting/Canada a couple of times a week regardless of whether you've been notified of anything or not, because nobody can guarantee that you'll always get notified of everything you might be interested in.

Proposed deletion of Kamilya Mohammedi Tuweni


The article Kamilya Mohammedi Tuweni has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Subject was treated abhorrently, but being detained inhumanely is not a guarantee of notability. I see no indication of lasting notability on a search. This is essentially a BLP1E."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 19:09, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

Renaming page of Fiji Navy
Hi, I note you are the creator of the relatively new Republic of Fiji Naval Service page. I am recommending to shift the page to Republic of Fiji Navy, since that's what they do officially call it on their naval website and local news. While I note that Wikipedia is not obliged to use official names, I would think either the shorter form Fiji Navy, Fijian Navy would be more appropriate if Republic of Fiji Navy is not used.

I will leave it up to you, thanks for reading. Seloloving (talk) 07:07, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

Bay streetcar line
Would this be a notable topic? (I did find this source p. 148)  Username 6892 01:26, 28 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I agree, it is an interesting topic!
 * Once someone has rounded up enough RS I think any of the former streetcar lines, in Toronto, or any other city, is a good candidate for an article - in my opinion.
 * I think the original streetcars on Bay probably are documented in RS.
 * 1) THE DUPONT AND BAY STREETCARS (DECEASED)
 * 2) 5 lost streetcar routes in Toronto
 * 3) Toronto Sketches 4: The Way We Were
 * 4) Toronto Old City Hall anniversary
 * Strictly speaking though, I don't think the 1990 photo you linked to is of the old Bay Street streetcar lines. I think it is an early iteration of the 509 Harbourfront route, which is still in operation.
 * Here is something you might not know. I followed transit in Toronto for a long time, before I learned this.  The TTC keeps one old Peter Witt Streetcar in working order, for special occasions.  They were designed for a two man crew.  Passengers entered at the front, where the driver didn't worry about whether they paid their fare.  Passengers exited at the back door, and a conductor made sure they paid their fare first.  The conductor's station was just in front of the rear doors, which were actually in the middle of the car.  Passengers could enter, and pay their fare when they passed him, on their way to the rear of the car.  The seats at the rear were more comfortable than the seats at the front, to encourage passengers to pay early.  Alternately, they could sit on the less comfortable forward seats, and pay as they exited.
 * We have a handful of images that could illustrate this article.....
 * Would you like to take a crack at a draft at User:Username6892/Bay Street streetcar, then let me know when you want my input?
 * Thanks for contacting me. Cheers!  Geo Swan (talk) 02:46, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
