For what it's worth, while I personally agree with your move — and I also absolutely, flatly refuse to link to Céline Dion without an accent in it, too — I just wanted to bring to your attention the edit in which it was originally moved to the unaccented title. Bearcat (talk) 02:50, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for checking things out. I realize that you are just trying to help and I don't think you were being mean to me. It's just that often it better to check things and discuss before reverting. In fact, the IMDb isn't really the most reliable source; the best source for something like this is Charles' own website. Since this is how he spells his name on all of his material, I think it is a fair guess that this is how it is spelled. It makes sense too (I come from Quebec). Grégoire is spelt with an accent, but Grégory just isn't a French name. Anyway, thank you for looking into it, and for agreeing to move the article back again. --Slp1 (talk) 02:54, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

1. - Asked the IP where they were getting their information from - it's entirely possible they had found a source stating 1981
2. - Found a RELIABLE source for the 1979 figure (IMDB doesn't cut it!)
3. - Reinserted the 1979 date cited to the reliable source and notified the IP you'd done this, why you'd done so and inviting them to check the source
4. - If the IP persisted in changing the year without explanation/source/discussion reported him to WP:AIV for admin assistance.

Just because the organizations do not use the dashes does not mean that Wikipedia should not use incorrect typography. We use dashes in titles where correct irregardless of what websites do; for example see Herbig–Haro object, a featured article. Please revert your moves.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:48, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi Steam5, I started the above article yesterday. Would you mind auditing the wikilinks to the various designated places to avoid redirects (just as you did at List of census agglomerations in Quebec and List of population centres in Quebec), and resolve any redlinked designated places that may have articles at other titles? Cheers, Hwy43 (talk) 02:18, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for taking a look. I've completed the straight French to English translations, and will ask Bearcat to confirm the translations and check for redirects on this as well as the other provincial designated places lists created. Cheers, Hwy43 (talk) 02:03, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

I posted to its talk page about why many if not most of the items in the list are problematic and should probably not be wikilinked. -- P.T. Aufrette (talk) 19:25, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Category:Steampunk music was nominated for deletion at WP:CFD October 4, and the discussion was closed by me as "delete".

Following further discussion with interested editors, I have re-listed the discussion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2012 November 14#Category:Steampunk_music, where your comments will be welcome.

This notice is being sent to all the editors who participated in the original discussion, and also to those who posted on my talk page aboutr the closure. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 11:15, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Just for the record, a highway that passes through multiple municipalities does not belong in the eponymous category for every individual municipality that it happens to pass through. If the municipality has a dedicated "Transport in City" subcategory, then a highway can be added to that (although even then it's an open question as to whether there's any actual value in that), but the highway doesn't belong directly in the main "City" category for any city that doesn't have a transport subcat — especially if it's a highway that's 2,000 miles long and could thus need to be added to 50 or 100 such categories. Wikipedia has rules about "category bloat", by which we avoid obsessively subcategorizing things on minor distinctions (e.g. subdividing MPs by every individual session of Parliament that they sat in, major provincial highways by every individual city or town that they happen to pass through, etc.) that could lead to articles sitting in dozens of too-narrowly-distinguished or mostly-overlapping categories simultaneously.

Having closed Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2014 August 12#Category:Ice hockey people from Detroit, and implemented the closure, I started to get worried about the size of Category:Ice hockey people from Ontario - currently almost at 1,200. A currently open discussion, Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2014 August 13#Category:Ice hockey people from Markham, Ontario, proposes upmerging more articles there. Being that you participated in one or both of these discussions, you may be interested in a related discussion at Category talk:Ice hockey people from Ontario#Splitting of this category. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 13:37, 21 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello, Steam5! I saw you recently edited a page related to the Green party and green politics. There is a new WikiProject that has been formed - WikiProject Green Politics and I thought this might be something you'd be interested in joining! So please head on over to the project page and take a look! Thanks for your time. Me-123567-Me (talk) 21:47, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Bonjour, dans le cadre d’un projet d’étude coordonné par Seeris de la présence des Franco-ontariens dans Wikipédia, nous organisons une rencontre de discussion lors de Wikimania Montréal. Il s’agit de mieux comprendre comment les Franco-ontariens sont représentés dans l’encyclopédie, et quelles sont les motivations des contributeurs qui ont édité les articles du portail Franco-ontarien. Serez-vous présent lors de cet évènement ? Si oui, seriez-vous intéressés à faire partie de la rencontre ? Karinemt (talk) 15:42, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

That's very fragile, you trust that the first use of this source with a Wikilink stays, that folks interested in the notability of the source find the wikilinked first use in the references, and that they don't consider "no wikilink" in the reference popup as "not very good". The four characters for a wikilink in all references for a given source, or similar the authorlink=… in all references for a given author, don't hurt. –84.46.53.251 (talk) 03:04, 18 February 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the link to the article on coronavirus in New Brunswick! I didn't know about it when I set up that section. If you're from the New Brunswick area, would really welcome your help in updating that section of the Canada-wide article about events in New Brunswick. The more eyes on this article, the better!

I would like to apologize for accusing you of sockpuppetry. The IPs' reverts made it look like they were yours. Also, keep up the good work on the COVID-19 articles. Mvcg66b3r (talk) 22:46, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

@Mvcg66b3r: That's OK. I know the IPs does not belong to someone. The good news is I have a strong password and I defended my strong comments and I want to continue on COVID-19 related articles for urgent editing. All the best and good luck to you. Steam5 (talk) 22:51, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

While recognising the length of your experience, I believe that to classify Gould as just a businessman when he is best known as a Canadian cultural figure is too limiting and a misrepresentation of his importance. I'm therefore reverting the recent change of title in the hope that you can come up with something more suitable. Sweetpool50 (talk) 00:20, 15 May 2020 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Category:Municipal elections in Bracebridge, Ontario indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".
