Notability of First Nations reservation locations
While doing new-page review, I came across 's recent creation of several First Nations reservation pages, such as Muskowekwan_85-15 or Northern Lights 220. I'd appreciate a second opinion on the notability of these places - my understanding of WP:GEOLAND is that these places aren't notable since they appear to only be census subdivisions (and only have census-type data for sources), but I'm not certain and am willing to admit that I could be wrong. Also, is there a more appropriate noticeboard for this kind of question in the future? (Awmcphee: please understand that I'm not trying to tear you down, you did an excellent job creating those pages, I just am not certain the places themselves are notable) creffett (talk) 00:46, 19 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Hey, I'm just glad someone else is looking them over. The main reason for this proliferation is that, uniquely, many First Nations governments in southern Saskatchewan have recently won the right to arbitrarily purchase new reserve lands from local farmers. Some have chosen to annex every new purchase into the main reserve, such as Cowessess 73, but others haven't, creating the untidy situation that you might have noticed on Muskowekwan First Nation.


 * Every one of these entities is considered a separate Indian Reserve, enjoying the same legal status that notable Indian Reserves in other provinces do - they are not administratively meaningless census divisions. However, I agree that it would be absurd to create new articles for every uninhabited field from Muskowekwan 85-1 to Muskowekwan 85-69 on the basis of WP:GEOLAND alone. Statistics Canada agrees, and only records census information for a small subset of these single-field reserves. That small subset is what I've been using as my guideline for notability, hence why only 1, 2A, 8, 10, 12, 15, 17, 22, 23, 24 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, and 33 made the cut out of 1 - 69. At the very least, these particular fields have had their uninhabitedness verified by an outside source, but it's an ugly compromise.


 * In the sparsely populated northern half of the province, where all land is government-owned and there are no private owners to deal with, most uninhabited Indian Reserves were created to protect historically/culturally significant sites. For an example of a tiny reserve that seems like it's not notable at first glance, see ʔejëre K’elnı Kuę́ 196I. In my opinion, all of these page are notable under WP:GEOLAND, as there is usually some available information about why they acquired reserve status.

 * , interesting! That's what I was missing - that they're legally separate reserves, not just administrative divisions. I'll wait and see if anyone else has anything to say on the topic, but that's a good enough assertion of notability for me. creffett (talk) 13:17, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

How to increase font size for printed pages
I followed the article here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Printing. Specifically I copied the print media rule into my own CSS and changed the body font to 12 px. But it does not make any difference. I tried printing using the browser button, and the menu option in the wikipedia menu (left hand side). I also refreshed the browser. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kimprince (talk • contribs) 03:47, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
 * , hmm looking at your css page it seems correct. Try say a 30pt font, and see if the font gets bigger (to test that it really works, make sure to not print it, just preview it). OkayKenji (talk page) 22:30, 20 October 2019 (UTC)

Can a person have two User pages?
Can a person have two User pages? (Under the same name / same account, that is.) Let's say that I have "too much information" on my User Page ... and I need / want a second page. Is that at all possible? Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 09:31, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
 * You can create as many user pages as you wish (within reason), but the second and subsequent ones will have to be sub-pages e.g. User:Joseph A. Spadaro/2. It's your talk page that is getting rather long, and you might like to archive old entries.  Dbfirs  09:42, 19 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks. (1.)  Would that show up in a "tab" on the top left ... where I currently have two tabs (User page and Talk)?  (2.) Also ... is that somehow different than a "Sandbox Page" ... or is it basically the same thing?     Thanks.  Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 10:31, 19 October 2019 (UTC)


 * No, it wouldn't, . All your user subpages have the same status as far as Wikipedia is concerned, and can be used as sandboxes or anything else consonant with User pages, whatever their names. The one called "Sandbox", if it exists, has that built in link to it. There's nothing to stop you putting an index of (some of) your subpages on your user page. --ColinFine (talk) 10:55, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
 * You can add your own interface links with JavaScript in . User:PrimeHunter/My subpages.js adds a Subpages link to all your subpages. You can also add the below to make a Page 2 link to the right of your main userpage link. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:25, 19 October 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks. If I add this "code" ... then I will get a new (third) tab to the right of my current two tabs that say "User page" and "Talk" (on the top left of my User page)?  Where exactly do I place that code?   Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 00:13, 21 October 2019 (UTC)
 * The code is placed in where all sorts of User scripts can be added. You can preview to see the effect on the interface without saving. It doesn't make a tab. It adds a link at top of all pages in the row with Sandbox, Preferences and so on. PrimeHunter (talk) 00:33, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, all! Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 17:24, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

 * Check with your lawyer. In general, data cannot be copyrighted, only the creative elements of a publication can be copyrighted. The form of a figure may be sufficiently creative to be copyrighted, but not the underlying data. Where a contributor has created a figure from some underlying data and contributed the result to Wikipedia, the figure is likely to be sufficiently creative to be copyrighted, and the contributor may have asserted a copyright and then licensed it for use under CC-BY-SA. In this case you may use the figure if you attribute it, but that copyright does not extend to the underlying data. -Arch dude (talk) 22:57, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Different colors: verbal names versus 6-digit code numbers
The above "box" contains three different colors ... "solid grey" ... "navy" ... and "white". How can I find the 6-digit code numbers for these colors, instead of using the verbal descriptions of the colors? For example, I can't find "solid grey" anywhere. Thanks. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 21:57, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
 * solid is not part of the color name, it is property of the border. Other options could be dotted or dashed, for example.  .  Color codes may be found here: Web_colors RudolfRed (talk) 22:06, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

It was ruled in conjunction with the Crown of Aragon until his death when by will it passed to a younger son, James (II), who ruled the kingdom as nominal vassal of the Aragonese Crown. He was removed by his nephew Alfonso III of Aragon, who conquered the island of Menorca in 1287, effectively recovered Menorca from Moorish rule.

By the Treaty of Anagni of 1295, however, these island territories were yielded back to James. In 1344, the kingdom was again united with the Crown of Aragon but still disputed by pretenders until 1403. It subsequently formed an administrative kingdom within the Crown of Spain periodically included in the royal style – as in Philip II's in the 1584 Treaty of Joinville – until the Nueva Planta Decrees abolished these divisions in 1715.

 * If you have concerns about a Wikipedia article, such as List of monarchs of Majorca, please raise it on the talk page of the article (in this case Talk:List of monarchs of Majorca. However, I suspect that the article Crown of Aragon will answer your concerns. --ColinFine (talk) 23:09, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
