Musicals Infobox
Hello, according to your comments on the WikiProject_Musicals/General page you have had some experience in infobox code. If you get a chance, could you take a look at the code on WikiProject_Musicals/Template_sandbox as I believe it to have some formating issues (I'm not sure) and it is not completely wikified. There are a couple comments about it on the Template sandbox page (don't worry about removing any information yet as a consensus seems not to have been reached yet). Thanks so much for your help and I look forward to working with you. --omtay38 02:06, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Things in common
I'm following ICMP tunnel which led me to Image:DiagramNeeded.gif and then to Event monitoring. I'm thinking of cleaning up Event monitoring since the intro reads as a cross between link spamming and original research, when who do I see but you in the edit history from earlier this year cleaning up and wikifying. I have a feeling the two of us have more in common than simply WP:EiC. Anyway, somewhat related to all this, here are some possible issues I've run across tonight: Looks like this is starting to show up more in articles. Personally, I find it unfortunate since it makes the articles seem like they're in the middle of being edited. What do you think? --Stephane Charette 06:54, 1 July 2006 (UTC)

Pseudoscalar
Hi, Why did you split the aticle on pseudoscalar ?? Both the physics and the math concept are one and the same thing -- mathematical pseudoscalars have odd parity. I'm reverting for now. linas 01:05, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I reverted, and cleaned up the article to make it clear that this is not two different things being talked about, but is the same thing. linas 01:17, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Next time that you have any questions about physics or math, consider contacting WikiProject Physics or WikiProject Mathematics. In this case, it would have saved you the time and effort spent trying to sort out the various links to the article. More generally, I'd suggest that you refrain from editing articles on which you are not knowledgable. linas 01:54, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Parks in British Columbia cat re change on Victory Square
Hi; saw your change to Victory Square's category; I'm surprised there's not a Vancouver parks cat; you'd think there would be; especially since GVRD-wide there's tons of them. My concern with the Parks in British Columbia category is that it's going to be huge once all prov, RD, fed and municipal parks are added in. Wouldn't a subcat hierarchy be more workable? Or are there not just enough park articles yet?Skookum1 02:34, 13 July 2006 (UTC) PS I know there's a provincial-parks cat, and there's only 10 or so federal parks (lots more fed-park proposals); but still between munis and RDs it's going to be a huge list...Skookum1 02:36, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Saw your response on my talk page and agree about not all parks being worthy; but even in the city of Van it's a list: Hastings, Queen E, Stanley, Jericho, Vanier, Pacific Spirit, China Creek etc, which have some history or other significance to them; and no doubt people will want their own neighbourhood greenspace added in, like that new insta-park at Homer and Davie, as we've seen with "invented neighbourhoods" (remember "Dickens"?); but I'm not the sort to leap in and invent categories because I don't know the existing hierarchies well enough. One little tidbit park comes to mind that's almost worth a blurb is that little creek just west of where Point Grey Road meets MacDonald; it was featured in the film That Cold Day In The Park (Altman's first-and-worst, they say...); can't remember what it's called right now...

Might as well take the time now to invite you to sign up for the draft BC WikiProject at User:Buchanan-Hermit/WikiProject-Sandbox, where tonight I fielded the idea by Buchanan-Hermit that the model for project organization cooked up by the incredible  Phædriel   ♥   tell me  for the WikiProject Indigenous peoples of North America (q.v. her revamp as of the last few days) be used to help coordinate what obviously will be a vast and complicated set of articles/issues and sundry; he wanted input from other editors but only he and me (he and I?) are signed up so far, and the project's not "gone official" of course; he's no slouch in the formatting department himself as the User:Buchanan-Hermit page demonstrates. But given that suggestion, it also seems a propos that maybe Phaedriel's layout be applied/adapted to the Vancouver WikiProject also; I know only a few people bit at those table formats I tried introducing, but if the project layout were made less unwieldy they'd work in just fine. Give 'er some thought and pls feedback; and also pls consider the BC Wikiproject, which I think it's high time for (esp. since OR, ID and AK have 'em going, and WA and AB aren't far behind)....Skookum1 09:13, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

BTW re Education in Canada project
I don't have a copy so can't cite you a page ref, but FYI I was somewhat stunned while reading Francis Decker's Pemberton: History of a Settlement to discover that correspondence courses for elementary and high school were first introduced anywhere in response to pressure and ideas from parents in the Birken-Gates Valley (between Pemberton-Mt Currie and D'Arcy) in the first decade of the 20th Century. Not sure where that fits into existing education articles but if that's one of your WikiFields I thought you might like to know that. Turns out, as an unrelated aside, it was a farmer up there (but in the Pemberton Valley, i.e. the Lilloet River Valley) who was the first to recognize iodine as a cure for goiter (in cattle, originally).Skookum1 09:16, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Extraneous Links
You're right about extraneous links on diambiguation pages. When I added links yesterday, I not only didn't know about that policy, but I didn't notice that I'd added them before and that you'd removed them afterward. You're absolutely correct that you were following Wikipedia policy, and after following your link, I learned something I didn't realize before. I stand corrected, and thanks for your promptness. -- Skymasterson 11:41AM, 14 July 2006

Mission Bridge vs Mission CPR Bridge
Hey; saw your tweak. I know why it's necessary, but the usual and traditional name for it is "the Mission Bridge", now of course meaning the highway bridge; I went to MSS and the bridge (and its line-up) was a part of local life; I guess the official or official-Wiki name has to be Mission CPR Bridge; looks really weird, though, like the long-form Second Narrows Ironworkers Memorial Bridge vs Second Narrows or Ironworkers (as has come into vogue lately). Also I'm not sure it was always CPR; I think it was Burlington Northern; at least as far as Abby (from the border) but I'm pretty sure the track crossings/overpasses in Matsqui Prairie say "Burlington Northern"; or used to, anyway. Before the building of the Pattullo rail bridge (CNR, BNR or BCER I'm not sure whose) rail traffic from the US had to go through Mission via this bridge; I probably already said that in the article, though.Skookum1 19:32, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I changed it to "Mission Railway Bridge". Both bridges are notable and deserve their own articles. Perhaps their naming can be tackled as part of the Wikipedia:WikiProject British Columbia. --Usgnus 00:03, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

In regards to this, shouldn't we instead be putting the break into OCCSB versus going through all the schools to see if they need a line break?

Students' Unions
Your proposed speedy renaming is fundamentally incorrect. A Students' Union is capitalised. (I've worked for them.) That is their formal name and a proper noun. Lowercased, it means an informal union of students. They are formal bodies with a formal name. Similarly your proposal re Students' Associations is wrong. That is their formal name, so a proper noun and capitalised. Wikipedia policy is to uppercase proper nouns, not lower case them. Your nominations are factually incorrect. I strongly advise you to withdraw the nominations.

Slán FearÉIREANN \(caint)  23:28, 21 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey, can someone point me to the place where the above-referenced discussion is going on? I personally believe that "students' union" should not be capitalised. (I've been the president of two.)  To clarify, when we are talking about the name of an organisation (e.g. the University of Saskatchewan Students' Union), then it must be capitalised, just as one must capitalise "Corporation" in "Microsoft Corporation".  However, when one speaks about, say, "tax cuts for corporations", one does not capitalise the word because, in that context, it is a common noun, not part of a proper noun.  Thus, if one were to say that "Canada's students' unions lobbied against tax cuts for corporations," for example, then one would not capitalise, for the same reason.  The distinction has nothing to do with the organization being formal or informal (again, the corporations who may be getting tax cuts are still formal bodies, they just don't get a capital "C" because their names are not currently involved.) However, this is not really the best place to be saying this - where is the right spot?  AshleyMorton 23:49, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

Okanagan Trail
Hi; saw you added the BC-geo stub to Okanagan Trail; I thought of it when writing the article; you'll see when more of it's done that it actually should be BC-hist (history) stub, but we don't have one of those yet.

Question on preferred name form, i.e. formal or usual
Hi; I'm about to start an article on Frank Gott/Francis Gott, a war hero and hunting guide from the Lillooet country who killed by a game warden as he was hunting out of season and then shot while trying to escape, dying of complications from the wound vs. his tuberculosis (which is why he was hunting; native cure is deer liver); he was of mixed parentage with a white father and so wasn't legally Indian and couldn't hunt whenever he wanted: http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/cos/100years/honour_roll.html (bio of Farey, the guy he shot). Anyway, he's usually known around town as Frank Gott, his legal name was Francis, as in the war registry/archive. Is it OK to use Frank Gott, or should I stick by the formalities? Also tricky because he's what we used to be comfortable calling a halfbreed but technically now is a Metis by the new constitutional definitions; but not according to the text on Metis, so I'll just say "mixed parentage" I guessSkookum1 19:10, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Democracy disambiguation
I was going to revert this back to mine, since your version merely moves the bulk below the useful ambig stuff, and deletes those that don't contain "democracy", which, despite what Bruce says, wasn't my reorganizing principal. But I notice you had made previous edits on the page to bring it in line with the MOS:DAB guidelines for links and things, so I'd rather try and convince you first. Could you take a look at my notes to Bruce at Talk:Democracy_(disambiguation), especially the "Parliament" and "Freedom" disambig examples. I can't find any examples of a good disambig page that lists large numbers of articles of the "adjective noun" format under a disambig page for noun, where the articles aren't distinctly separate senses of the word (as in the "Freedom" case). Here, all the articles are under the general "Democracy" umbrella in the "political" (or whatever) context, and are they not direct disambiguation candidates for "democracy" under any Wikipedia usage I've seen so far. - David Oberst 22:15, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Since User:Wangi independently cut the chunk of links out, I thought I might as well revert to my version, which has slightly newer wording and formatting on some of the entries. Hopefully we can convert you to some version of this. - David Oberst 22:50, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Disabig - School Pages
On your moves for Schools, I have no problem with the long(South Park Elementary School, Victoria BC) or the short version(South Park Elementary School, Victoria).

Edgewater Elementary School (Edgewater) - where the school name and the town name are the same or South Park Elementary School (Victoria) where the town name is also subject to disabig. That is why I used the long version in mine. Please move as you see fit. Wakemp 20:11, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Victoria High School
I noticed that you had deleted allmost all of the content on the Vic High page as a copyright violation. I admit I did crib heavily, but it was not a cut and paste job. Most of what was left from the original was either commonly used terminology "Oldest high school north of San Fransisco and West of Winnipeg", "two room log cabin" (both of which are part of the common story for the school) or purely factual information (dates, class size and composition) I had changed around a few sentences, added some more information from other sources, confirmed much of the information from other sources and removed stuff that didn't seem important to me.

I am planning on re-adding it back in with a little bit more editing. If you have any problems with it please notify me. Thanks -- Webgeer 06:09, 9 August 2006 (UTC)


 * That whole first paragraph was taken mostly from their article and then edited. I justified this to myself in that it was pretty much just dates (most of which I was able to confirm from other sources), but it did leave a few phrasings in there that were unique, and I probably should have done a better job of editing it.  I have now edited that paragraph more, removed some less important features -- although I am having second thoughts about removing the class composition as that may have been unusual to have so many girls going to high school.  I hope the results seem reasonable to you.  -- Webgeer 06:43, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

At what point can the template come off and the content (which I think now it not copyritevio) go back?  Not sure what the process is.  I see the template says not to edit the main page for the moment.  Or is it a situation where the content of the temp page just gets moved  back after a week.

Augusta

 * Augusta, Georgia, From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Augusta). "Augusta" redirects here. For other uses, see Augusta (disambiguation).

in other words, Augusta currently rd's to Augusta, Georgia. Try it! Bolivian Unicyclist 17:04, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * What I don't understand is why it's a counter-example for moving Augusta, Georgia to Augusta being non-controversial
 * Oh, I see. I think it'd be controversial because of the long list of dab entries, most particularly the presence there of the Roman Augustae and Augusta, Maine, a state capital. If Augusta had the population of Atlanta and fewer competing dab entires: yes, ok, maybe. But not as things stand. The topic cropped up on the settlements convention talk page, couple of comments there murmuring about how Augusta, Georgia, getting the rd isn't entirely correct.

Since you were involved in helping develop a separate Canadian convention, I thought you would like to know that some editors have proposed merging the American and Canadian conventions and dragging Canadian city names once again into their endless debate over the appropriateness of the "City, State" form. The fun is at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (settlements). Skeezix1000 11:46, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

BC history/heritage stubs? road stubs?
Came here because I saw you were the most recent person to work on [:Category:British Columbia geography stubs]]. I just sat about reviewing Cariboo Road and saw it has a Roads in Canada stub; it and other major items in the offing, and already around, could use a common cat; geog and politican stubs are all there is right now. Occurred to me while writing this that Skookum and similar "BC culture" articles could be given these cats if the "heritage" term is used, instead of "history". Prepping to write the Omineca, McDame, Big Bend, Rock Creek, and Wild Horse Creek gold rushes up soon, so all would fit in one of these; hsitory's not just about the pols, of course. "Heritage" could also be useful for things like quiggly hole, and even Chinook Jargon.Skookum1 08:21, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

No content in Category:Canadian ice hockey wingers
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Category:Canadian ice hockey wingers, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Category:Canadian ice hockey wingers has been empty for at least four days, and its only content has been links to parent categories. (CSD C1). To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Category:Canadian ice hockey wingers, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

New 10,000 Challenge for Canada
Hi, WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Logo brit.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Logo brit.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 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:26, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
