Wikimedia Canada
Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there! -- user:zanimum

Countship
In case there is protestation, aside from it being non-standard usage, particularly for latin principalities. As such, I took the liberty of moving most remaining instances of countship to county or reign (i.e. a count of Barcelona reigns). In some cases I have reworded sentences because the syntax was sucky. The OED prefers county, and countship sounds like an unwieldy calque of german.

Re:Audism talk page
Hi there. I noticed your talkpage comment, and I've removed it as per no personal attacks policy (like calling him an idiot). I've also removed that guy's comment as, well, audist - especially on the talk page for audism. This is an interesting possible precedent, you might want to bring it up on the WikiProject Deaf talk page... JoeSmack Talk 04:46, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I admit I went overboard, bad day of being argued at by family over email explains but doesn't justify. And yes, I'll probably bring it up, the talk page for audism is pretty bad for these cases, but a few other deafness articles I've checked are comparable. Snapdragonfly (talk) 05:01, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
 * I understand. Please do so bringing it up on the WikiProject; I think it is an important discussion to have. It may be something that evolves policy on no personal attacks to be a bit more inclusive, so I'm all for the dialogue. JoeSmack Talk 05:14, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Agreed I guess, I commented on the WikiProject: Deaf talkpage, and I think it might be better to actually let the comment stand (just by policy thing); I'll retract the personal attack though I think. I don't know. For now all I have to say is at WP: Deaf... Also I'll probably have something - the category: deaf was removed (along with the other disability categories) with a tally of vote that indicated at best no concensus, at worst, I have, as follows, for each subcat the number of votes to keep and the number of votes to delete as in the convo at [] this vote:


 * Deceased, gets 7 to keep, 7 to delete
 * Deaf, gets 8 to keep, 5 to delete, 1 abstain - this is the clearest vote of the lot and it's keep
 * HIV+, Cancer, Cancer Survivor, all get 7 to keep and 6 to delete, 1 abstain
 * Synaesthetik, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Colorblind, Periodic Paralysis, Diabetes mellitus, Astigmatism, Crohn's Disease,, Asthma all get 6 to keep, 7 to delete, 1 abstain
 * For Added Fun, the overall tally is that 7 delete most of it, 6 keep most of it and 1 is an abstention with a note that Deceased wikipedians is already a page elsewhere.
 * I'd feel perfectly entitled by this vote to recreate the deaf wikipedians category and whoever decided they had a consensus needs to relearn to count. The global tally has no consensus and Deaf, by itself, was a keep. Snapdragonfly (talk) 08:28, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Re: Trans woman
Please refrain from using personal attacks in your edits and edit summaries, as you did | in this edit summary. I note from prior discussions on your talkpage, that other editors have noticed this behavior from you on other pages. If you do not edit within WP's rules, you will be blocked from editing.— James Cantor (talk) 15:12, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
 * The personal attacks invoked in the preceding discussion were initially against me, I just let it descend into a flame war. I see you are no stranger to this behavior either. Snapdragonfly (talk) 04:20, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
