WikiProject

I noticed your hockey article edits and I was wondering if you had any interest in joining Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey? It could use a lot more good editors. Croat Canuck 06:18, 7 January 2006 (UTC)

Just as a help to us, if you create or find any hockey related pages that don't have the Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey tag on their talk pages, could you add it?
{{ice hockey}}
(just as it looks here, not how it shows in 'edit' mode for this page).

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.

How do hyphenated nationalities work?

Hi Canuck85,

With regards to hyphenated nationalities, is it (place of birth/ethnic origin)-(place of residence), or can it be the other way around?

Out of curiosity, how did you detect Dale Begg-Smith so soon after its creation? Thanks, Andjam 12:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

I've noticed you did an edit on Owen Hargreaves back a while ago. I nominated the article at Football Aid/Article Improvement. Maybe you can help out by voting and do more edits. Kingjeff 00:31, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Category:Canadian people by ethnicity and Category:Canadian-New Zealanders

Hello. Jason, you ve put Category:Canadian-New Zealanders under Category:Canadian people by ethnicity when they belong in a Category:New Zealand people by national origins category (which doesn t currently exist). i m gonna change it back again. Matthew. Mayumashu 04:00, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Hi, again. I don t understand why you ve put this cat page back under this supra-cat page - these people are New Zealanders of Canadian descent and the supra-cat lists Canadians of other various descents. i m gonna reverse the change again Mayumashu 13:48, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Copyrighted text

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Mitch Berger, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! ×Meegs 18:18, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

Your article Shaun Suisham also seems to be taken from an NFL web page. If there are any other such pages that you've made, would you please find them and have them deleted at Wikipedia:Copyright problems? Thanks. ×Meegs 19:05, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

"born on" vs. "born"

Is there a particular reason why you are changing the first sentence of articles from "born" to "born on"? Croat Canuck 00:39, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Hello C85, I removed your entry of Des Smith. Couldn't find anything where he was an NHL player, coach, GM, owner or agent, scout. GoodDay 17:10, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Hello again, you were right about Des Smith being a former NHL player. However you had him wiki-linked to the wrong Des Smith. I corrected the wiki-link. Sorry to have bugged you. GoodDay 17:46, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Question about article

Hello

I have a question about the article Al Cabrera
Do you have any other references for it?

Alfred Young (cricket)

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Alfred Young (cricket), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. Ferdie33 04:26, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Cecil Sturgeon

Cecil Sturgeon has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this person might not be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:Notability (people) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the "prod" template, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod template, the article will not be deleted, but if an editor is still not satisfied that it meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Notability of Dave Davidson

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Dave Davidson, by Tecmobowl, another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Dave Davidson seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Dave Davidson, please affix the template {{hangon}} 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. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Dave Davidson itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 05:49, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject NASCAR

I notice that you've create several NASCAR related articles. You are welcome to join me in Wikipedia:WikiProject NASCAR. I am way up north (nort), but it's ok if you're north of the border. Thanks for your contributions in any case! Royalbroil 20:52, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Please add the stub template {{NASCAR-bio-stub}} for stub (short) biographies of NASCAR drivers. You can also add any driver with at least one start in one of the big three NASCAR series to the WikiProject by adding the following to their talk page: {{WikiProject NASCAR|class=stub|importance=low}} . If they are larger than stub you can replace "stub" with "start". I doubt there are any NASCAR drivers without an article who are above "low" importance. All people should get the biography disclaimer on their talk page which is {{WPBiography|living=yes|class=stub}} . Replace "yes" with "no" if they are dead. Royalbroil 18:37, 10 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you.

What's New?

The Assessment Department is new. Please help to assess via quality and importance Saskatchewan articles by using the parent Canada wikiproject template {{WikiProject Canada |class= |importance= | sk=yes }} along with the Assessment guidelines.

See also wikiproject template for other work groups with their wikiprojects as well as provinces which can be added to the Canadian template

The new template and assessment table worklist is produced periodically and was created by Arctic Gnome. Thank you very much! Please take a moment to send an award or other recognition

New Template Saskatchewan

  • AT Bot requests, another very kind user has also offered to help with the transition process (Thank you also to Ρх₥α )

The request conglomerated together the following tasks to help show the quantity / quality of Saskatchewan related articles:

  1. tag all articles in Category:Saskatchewan and all of its subcategories with {{WikiProject Canada |sk = | class=| importance=}} and if {{WikiProject Canada | class=| importance=}} already exists, then can just |sk=yes be added to the Canada template?
  2. all articles which have a Saskatchewan related stub Saskatchewan-politician-stub / Saskatchewan-stub / Saskatchewan-geo-stub to be tagged in their talk pages for wikiproject Saskatchewan and be classified as stub as such: {{WikiProject Canada |sk =yes | class=stub| importance=}}
  3. add GA or FA to to the class parameter of {{WikiProject Canada}} articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.
  4. add stub to the class parameter if a stub tag is present on the article page.
  5. Replace the old tag {{Saskatchewanproject}} with the new parent wikiproject tag: {{WikiProject Canada |sk =yes | class=| importance=}} and if {{WikiProject Canada | class=| importance=}} already exists, then can just |sk=yes be added to the Canada template?
  6. add to the class area FL for any Featured-class lists articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.
  7. add to the class area List if the Saskatchewan related item in category:Saskatchewan articles if any other template has such a parameter value on the talk page.

Watch Arctic Gnome's assessment table worklist for progression undertaken by Ρх₥α. It is a very exciting time. Please take a moment to send an award or other recognition

Highway Picture Template

  • Just as there is only one image needed for upload for Saskatchewan locator maps, and then various towns can be updated upon this image. So, too there should be a highway picture template, so that the various numbered highways 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914, etc can all have their own image without needing to create a bizzilion numbered images online.

2004 Election

  • Our 2004 Saskatchewan election has resulted in an amazing number of politician biographies coming online! This was an awesome achievement, and something to be proud of!
  • Qyd (talk · contribs) and Arctic.gnome (talk · contribs) are editors of a wide variety of Canadian related articles, and of note as of this date is the enormous amount of work they have undertaken to help amalgamate all the various provincial wikiprojects and Canadian sub projects into one umbrella assessment department. This unique assessment department means that Saskatchewan related articles can be assessed for their own provincial merit, and also belong to the Canadian wikiproject as well. It also means that editors from both Canada wikiproject and Saskatchewan wikiproject can unite in their efforts to provide banners and ratings to articles. This will result in a huge improvement in quality on wikipedia, resulting in Saskatchewan's spotlight award for Qyd (talk · contribs).

Saskatchewan Roads and Highways

Saskatchewan Roads and Highways The WikiProject Canada Roads is undergoing an overhaul. It is aiming to produce some Good articles and Featured articles of highway content pertaining to Canada, and for the Saskatchewan Roads and Highways for Saskatchewan highways. As Saskatchewan is still a work in progress this is a challenging endeavour for as the guidelines are followed as laid out at either Highway wikiproject, they become red link farms because wikilinked articles have not been developed regarding the communities, provincial and regional parks and rural municipalities which the highways meander through. Please keep apprised of the progress, and if any Saskatchewan articles rise above stub we will list it on the main page.

There is also discussion started about assessment and navigation boxes on the talk page. Please peek in to add any comments you may have.

If you want to add your name as a particpant to the Canada Roads wikiproject [here]. To join the Saskatchewan Roads wikiproject sign on the main here please.

Recently articles Saskatchewan Highway 1, 33, 34, 58, 913, 914 have been improved, but they need more help so they can become articles nominated as Good articles.
