Gemini Awards
Hi, when you're writing up articles on each year's Gemini Awards, could you link to CBC News: The National, rather than just "The National", when listing the CBC news show? The plain title "The National" is a disambiguation page, not the TV show. You can type The National for years when "CBC News" wasn't actually part of the show's title yet, but just linking directly to "The National" is taking the user to the wrong place. Thanks.

dates
Hi, I noticed that you linked a date or two when you created 14th Primetime Emmy Awards. This practice is now deprecated. Please see WP:LINKING and WP:MOSNUM. I'm happy to respond to any inquiries you may have about the matter. Ohconfucius (talk) 07:50, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
