Okay. I've put the page at User:Chnou/Early Canadiens for now. Although, as I mentioned earlier I don't fully understand what your goal for this page is, I'm willing to give you a chance. Bearcat (talk) 03:21, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

March 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to List of NHL statistical leaders which can be seen here. While it is true that many of the players on the table would now, or have played for the "Russian" national teams, those players were actually born in the "Soviet Union", hence the flags. The introduction to the article states "a flag is placed beside players born outside of Canada based on their place of birth". Thanks. — MrDolomite • Talk 02:44, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Québécois (word)

Hello. I've removed the ethnic group infobox from this article. There was consensus against the inclusion of one, on the basis that it was inappropriate for Wikipedia to use Québécois as an ethnic group designation. For discussion of this issue, please see Talk:Québécois_(word)/Archive_3#Infobox and Talk:Québécois/Archive 2#Question 1. Note also that the current name of the article makes clear that it deals only with the word Québécois, and not with the people. Thanks. Joeldl (talk) 13:16, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

List of cities

A plain list that isn't formatted into a table, while not ideal, is still preferable to a table that's linking to the wrong things. While we'd certainly like every article to be a marvel of graphic design, it's more important for it to be accurate than pretty. It's not anybody else's responsibility to have already formatted the article the way you'd like it to be — but if and when you decide to do it, it is your responsibility to make sure that you're actually linking to the correct topics. Whether you were done working on the population column or not, you were linking to the wrong topics in the city name and MRC name columns — and whether you like it or not, that had to be repaired. Bearcat (talk) 03:51, 4 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There's always been a bit of a debate about what to include in the list — but the consensus position has always been that we need to include anything that the government of Quebec designates as ville, and not apply some kind of artificial standard of our own to decide which villes are really "cities" and which ones are really "towns". The idea that Barkmere counts as a city is kind of silly, but as long as the government of Quebec calls it a ville it's not really up to Wikipedia to decide that it's something else instead...

Edit summaries

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Before saving your changes to an article, please provide an edit summary for your edits. Doing so helps everyone to understand the intention of your edit (and prevents legitimate edits from being mistaken for vandalism). It is also helpful to users reading the edit history of the page. Thank you. –BMRR (talk) 19:42, 19 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

some suggestions

having looked at a couple of your articles, you do good work, but you could use some help setting up sources, footnotes, that kind of thing, its kinda hard to double check an article if we don't know what sources you use, but over all its excellent work. For the time being i would suggest that you read up on [H:MARKUP|[wikipedia's markup language]] and possibly look at having someone mentor you, if you have any questions, feel free to ask any of us on IRC which you can access through your web browser here in the channel #wikipedia-en. good luck and edit safe.. kthxbai Keastes ^know_thyself 02:47, 24 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings! A stub template or category which you created has been nominated for renaming or deletion at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type most likely doesn't meet Wikipedia requirements for a stub type, through failure to meet standards relating to the name, scope, current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals! This message is a boilerplate, left here as a courtesy, and should not be considered personal in nature. Grutness...wha? 03:21, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I must admit I'm still not entirely happy with the stub types, but it seems that they do have a use - I'll rename the templates, though, so the nominations can be effectively closed. Grutness...wha? 22:28, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Brrr! Still, spring can't be far away now... It's warm, but windy here today (about 25 C). Grutness...wha? 22:45, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

{{Brittany-stub}} and {{Normandy-stub}}

Greetings! I see you have recently created one or more new stub templates or categories. As it states at Wikipedia:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Wikipedia, it is recommended that new stub types be proposed prior to creation at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This helps to reach consensus about whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it is otherwise correctly formatted, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Discoveries, where comments are welcome as to any rationale for this stub type. Please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals! Grutness...wha? 03:45, 13 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Articles on the bombing of Normandy and France

Hi, I've removed the material you'd included in the Bombing of Normandy and Bombing of France during World War II articles on looting and rapes committed by Allied servicemen in France as it didn't seem at all relevant to the topic of these articles. These topics should be covered in the appropriate articles (I note that there's coverage of the rapes in the War rape article), but they're out of place in articles about bombing. Cheers, Nick-D (talk) 07:56, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:WikiProject Kingdom of France (section) and Wikipedia:WikiProject New France (section)

Hi, could you explain to me the meaning of the pages Wikipedia:WikiProject Kingdom of France (section) and Wikipedia:WikiProject New France (section)? Are they supposed to be subpages of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Kingdom of France and Wikipedia:WikiProject New France? If that's the case, they should re named to something like Wikipedia:WikiProject Kingdom of France/section. If you created them as some kind of a test, or if they are not actually useful, I think they should be deleted. User<Svick>.Talk(); 14:20, 14 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Laval Université 1.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Laval Université 1.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 16:55, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

All you need to do is edit the image's page and add that you took the photograph and then sign your name. Its as simple as that. Let me know when you do, and I will remove the tag. Thanks, -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 01:43, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sonia del Rio moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Sonia del Rio, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) In addition, there appears to be a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
