File:Vancouver SkyTrain Map.svg
I'm in the process of developing a substantially revised version of this map to coincide with the launch of the Canada Line, so the timing is good.

I see what you mean about zone 3; I show it to the right because that's the only place that anything on the map runs into it, but I suppose that could lead someone to think that Delta was in zone 2. I'll see if I can find a communicative way of showing its full area.

With respect to Main Street-Science World, I follow the conventions of the London Underground map in this respect. Connections to the main-line railways are considered interchanges, even if the other services are operated by a different company; see, for example, Walthamstow Central, Seven Sisters, and Vauxhall stations on the Victoria Line. I go back and forth between considering Main Street a station along these lines, and thinking of it more like Euston Square or Clapham North (since it has a different name from Pacific Central). Perhaps in the next revision I'll make it a normal icon, but write 'Pacific Central 100 m' beside it. David Arthur (talk) 16:41, 7 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the comments. I don't think I can include the entire South Arm, since that would mean adding a lot of blank space south of Richmond-Brighouse (perhaps we need a tramway to Steveston to fill in the map :-) ). I'll see if I can add the western portion that divides Richmond from Surrey, though, and I'll take a look at the Burnaby station positions. David Arthur (talk) 14:16, 18 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see what you mean. I was only thinking about the metro system and SeaBus when I drew the zones, but I can adjust the box to meet the border. I use Inkscape for vector graphics; the paradigm can take some getting used to (even if you already know other vector programmes), but it's good, comprehensive, free, and cross-platform.

Orphaned non-free image (File:DollarGiant.jpg)
 Thanks for uploading File:DollarGiant.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. FileBot (talk) 20:32, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

World Series MVP
I understand you're working on the World Series MVP award. If so, could we share format ideas as I develop the LCS MVP award? I'd like those two lists, along with the Babe Ruth Award which is similar, to share as much formatting as possible since they are so alike. If you have a sandbox where you are working on things, let me know; my very early draft is here. Thanks. KV5 ( Talk  •  Phils ) 19:20, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
 * You're welcome to copy my format if you'd like. For stats, I am just using the three triple crown stats for batters unless they have an excess of steals or something like that. For pitchers, I'm using innings pitched or saves, followed by strikeouts and ERA. KV5  ( Talk  •  Phils ) 19:57, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

MLB All-Star Game MVP
Fixed your point on the key, thanks! Staxringold talkcontribs 00:02, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Hey, how goes the WS MVP list? Staxringold talkcontribs 00:26, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
 * For the World Series MVP, I really don't think you need to tag the MLB MVP and/or CYA winners with colors. As I did in ASG MVP, I really think that stuff can just sit in the lead. The LCS MVP is related, those, not really (regular season vs. postseason awards). Staxringold talkcontribs 01:19, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
 * My thing is just that once you start getting into that many colors the color key stops being as useful (harder to remember what like 5-6 colors mean as opposed to.. say 2). Staxringold talkcontribs 01:33, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

2010 WikiCup Signups Reconfirmation!
To ensure that everyone who signed up is still committed to participating in the 2010 WikiCup, it is required that you remove your name from this list! By removing your name, you are not removing yourself from the WikiCup. This is simply a way for the judges to take note of who has not yet reconfirmed their participation. If you have not removed your name from that list by December 30th, 2009 (by 23:59 (UTC)) then your name will be removed from the WikiCup.

It's worth noting the rules have changed, likely after you signed up. The changes made thus far are:
 * Mainspace and/or portal edits will not be awarded points at all.
 * Did you know? articles (which were worth 5 points last year) will now be worth 10 points.
 * Good articles (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
 * Valued pictures will be now awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.
 * Featured lists (which were worth 30 points last year) will now be worth 40 points.
 * Featured portals (which were worth 25 points last year) will now be worth 35 points.
 * Featured articles (which were worth 50 points last year) will now be worth 100 points.
 * Featured topics (which were worth 10 points per article last year) will now be worth 15 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
 * Good topics (which were worth 5 points per article last year) will now be worth 10 points per any article in the topic that you were a major contributor to.
 * In the news will still be awarded points, however the amount (5 or 10 points) is still being discussed.

If you have any final concerns about the WikiCup's rules and regulations, please ask them now, before the Cup begins to avoid last minute problems. You may come to the WikiCup's talk page, or any of the judge's user talk pages. We're looking forwards to a great 2010 WikiCup! On behalf of the WikiCup judges,  iMatthew  talk  at 03:46, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

I've removed the nomination. Please do not re-submit until you have found an independent copy-editor (I would normally do it, but I have no time) to run through the article.

When you do get somebody to copy-edit, please show me a diff of the improvements and I'll be happy to let you re-nominate. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:41, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

The 2010 WikiCup begins tomorrow!
Welcome to the biggest WikiCup Wikipedia has yet seen! Round one will take place over two months, and finish on February 26. There is only one pool, and the top 64 will progress. The competition will be tough, as more than half of the current competitors will not make it to round 2. Details about scoring have been finalized and are explained at WikiCup/Scoring. Please make sure you're familiar with the scoring rules, because any submissions made that violate these rules will be removed. Like always, the judges can be reached through the WikiCup talk pages, on their talk page, or over IRC with any issues concerning anything tied to the Cup. We will keep in contact with you via weekly newsletters; if you do not want to receive them, please remove yourself from the list here. Conversely, if a non-WikiCup participant wishes to receive the newsletters, they may add themselves to that list. Well, enough talk- get writing! Your submission's page is located here. Details on how to submit your content is located here, so be sure to check that out! Once content has been recognized, it can be added to your submissions page, from which our bot will update the main score table. Remember that only articles worked on and nominated during the competition are eligible for points. Have fun, and good luck! Garden, iMatthew, J Milburn, and The ed17 19:22, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Any Lakers lists on hand?
Hello, long time no see. I see you're slowly inching on my record at WP:WBFLN, which would normally drive me to no end to increase the gap, but I suppose I don't have the energy for that at the moment. In any case, I was wondering whether you were working on any Lakers-related lists at the moment, as the team seems to nicely encapsulate both of our interests, and make a nice collaboration target.

WikiCup 2010 January newsletter
We are half way through round one of the WikiCup. We've had some shakeups regarding late entries, flag changes and early dropouts, but the competition is now established- there will be no more flag changes or new competitors. Congratulations to, our current leader, who, at the time of writing, has more listed points than and   (second and third place respectively) combined. A special well done also goes to - his artcle Jewel Box (St. Louis, Missouri) was the first content to score points in the competition.

Around half of competitors are yet to score. Please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. 64 of the 149 current competitors will advance to round 2- if you currently have no points, do not worry, as over half of the current top 64 have under 50 points. Everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places in round 2! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, by email or on IRC. Good luck!

A special well done goes to, our round one winner (1010 points), and to and , who were second and third respectively (640 points/605 points). Sasata was awarded the most points for both good articles (300 points) and featured articles (600 points), and TonyTheTiger was awarded the most for featured topics (225 points), while Hunter Kahn claimed the most for good topics (70). claimed the most featured lists (240 points) and featured pictures (35 points), claimed the most for Did you know? entries (490 points),  claimed the most for featured sounds (70 points) and  claimed the most for In the news entries (40 points). No one claimed a featured portal or valued picture.

Credits awarded after the end of round one but before round two may be claimed in round two, but remember the rule that content must have been worked on in some significant way during 2010 by you for you to claim points. The groups for round two will be placed up shortly, and the submissions' pages will be blanked. This round will continue until 28 April, when the top two users from each group, as well as 16 wildcards, will progress to round three.

Though unaffiliated with the WikiCup, July sees the third Great Wikipedia Dramaout- a project with not dissimilar goals to the WikiCup. Everyone is welcome to take part and do their bit to contribute to the encyclopedia itself.

If you're interested in the scores for the last round of the Cup, please take a look at WikiCup/History/2010/Round 3 and WikiCup/History/2010/Full/Round 3. Our thanks go to for compiling these. As was predicted, Group C ended up the "Group of Death", with 670 points required for second place, and, therefore, automatic promotion. This round will probably be even tougher- again, the top two from each of the two groups will make it through, while the twelve remaining participants will compete for four wildcard places- good luck everyone!

Planning has begun for the 2011 WikiCup, with open discussions concerning scoring and flags for next year's competition. Contributions to those discussions would be appreciated, especially concerning the flags, as next year's signups cannot begin until the flag issue has been resolved. Signups will hopefully open at some point in this round, with discussion about possible changing in the scoring/process opening some time afterwards.

Earlier this round, we said goodbye to, who has bowed out to spend more time on the book he is authoring with his wife. We wish him all the best. In other news, the start of this round also saw some WikiCup awards sent out by. We appreciate his enthusiasm, and contestants are of course welcome to award each other prizes as they see fit, but rest assured that we will be sending out "official" awards at the end of the competition.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war&#32; according to the reverts you have made on List of universities in Canada. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Me-123567-Me (talk) 20:56, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

Hi K. Annoyomous, just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled right to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature should have little to no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing!  F ASTILY  (T ALK ) 00:24, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Featured list candidates/List of awards and nominations received by Drake/archive1
Keith, you already have one FLC running&mdash;Featured list candidates/List of BC Lions head coaches/archive2&mdash;and it has received no supports. The FLC instructions explicitly say "Users should not add a second FL nomination until the first has gained support [emphasis mine] and reviewers' concerns have been substantially addressed." Would you mind holding off a bit on the Drake FLC until the BC Lions list moves forward (so to speak)? Dabomb87 (talk) 22:28, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * I've removed this nomination from FLC for now; feel free to re-transclude when the BC Lions list receives a support or two. I've pinged Canada Hky to revisit, so hopefully things will perk up at that FLC. Thanks, Dabomb87 (talk) 22:38, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, I'm not sure how long the one-nomination rule has been around, but TRM and I have been a little more strict about it lately. Dabomb87 (talk) 22:39, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Re: Fixing capitalization problem with Hans Blohm's new page
Just a quick note to thank you, Keith, for noticing and fixing the capitalization problem with the page I created for Hans Blohm last night. I realized my mistake just after I pushed the create button and was wondering how to fix it. The problem got fixed quicker than I could find the solution. Thanks again.

Re: ABA champions FLC
It was nominated by me for FLC two years ago, but it failed after weak support and requests to merge. I will not be able to nominate it, so if you want to give it go, be my guest. Just warning you though, you might get opposition for the same reason though. :) Hello32020 (talk) 03:13, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
