List of premiers of British Columbia
I am nominating this article because I believe it covers all the FL criteria. This is also my third nomination for the FLC contest. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 00:36, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

Question sorry, but what is an assembly in this case? You have a whole column dedicated to it yet you don't explain what do 1st, 2nd, etc mean. Nergaal (talk) 06:30, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Arctic.gnome wikilinked Assemblies to the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia. I hope this clears things up. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 21:24, 12 November 2008 (UTC)

 * Comments by SatyrTN
 * Alexander Edmund Batson Davie's row is all messed up. There's a ")" missing after the "no party affiliation". The date span probably belongs in the last column rather than the one it's in. I suspect the "Period" column is missing.
 * The "Elections" column confuses me. It has some of the same information as the "Period" column.  Also, some of that info wouldn't seem to belong - if the column is "Elections", shouldn't it only have entries like Elected October to December 1871? Alberta's list has "Period" and "Reason for leaving", which seems to work - consider using that format?
 * Hm - now that I look further, Quebec, Saskatchewan and Ontario all have the same format as this one. I'm not sure why this bothers me, but maybe the heading of the column could be changed?
 * I really don't know... --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 00:24, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The general reference "The Canadian Encyclopedia (2000). (1999)." has two years. The ISBN is for the 1999 version - maybe remove the "2000"?
 * At the moment, a Weak Support is what I'd say. If you could fix the "Election", "Period" and/or "Reason for leaving" situation, I'd strongly support. -- SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 23:55, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
 * DONE all. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 00:24, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Images and other comments:
 * Why is there a duplicated image in the lead and then in the list?
 * Because they are in different sections. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 21:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Why is party affiliation given by text and by color coding?
 * It said so on WP:MOS. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 21:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Image:McCreight.JPG, Image:Beaven_r.jpg, Image:Smithe.jpg, Image:Alexander Edmund Batson Davie.png, Image:John Robson.jpg, Image:Theodore Davie.jpg, Image:John Herbert Turner.png, Image:Joseph Martin.png, Image:James Dunsmuir.jpg, Image:Richard McBride.jpg, Image:Harlan Carey Brewster.jpg, Image:JohnOliver.jpg, Image:John Hart.jpg, and are all either missing information (source/author/date of publication, et al) or do not have the information presented in a clear manner. I would use the description template.
 * I will ask a image professional do to that. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 21:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Image:Charles Semlin.png - need evidence of free use (pubdom) in United States, and all the missing info.

 * Image:Edward Gawler Prior.jpg - get rid of all the bot crap and put the actual pub info in the template fields.

 * Comment on these comments
 * I suggest you not to tell users here, since this is a FLC nomination, and is not my fault for these fixes that are needed to be done. --  SRE.K.A nnoyomous .L. 24 [c] 21:43, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
 * You're the nominator, and thus you're responsible for making sure the candidate meets all the criteria, including images. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk  ) 21:49, 17 November 2008 (UTC)


 * comments. doesn't things like "Resigned (scandal)" break WP:BLP without citations? I would oppsose' this unless the reasons for resignation are cited. the dates i can take on faith, as being trivial to cite, but reasons, especially those that reflect on the persons character, need citing.Yobmod (talk) 21:33, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
