Philip DeFranco image

I removed it again. Per WP:NFCC we can only use free images of living people. I just got one for KevJumba by emailing him. If you want to know how to do that, contact me on my talk page. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 18:59, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Well, you can contact him here. Ask him to send you an email including a photo and the words "I release this image under creative commons attribution 3.0" or "I release this image under the GFDL" or "I release this image into the public domain". Then you upload the image at commons and follow the OTRS instructions at here. User:Cirt checked the OTRS for me, he's pretty quick about it. You may want to explain that our rules require a free image, and that his wikipedia article gets thousands of hits. Here's the text of the email I sent to Kevjumba. You can modify it if you want.

I need you to say in an email reply "I release these images under the GFDL" ,or "I release these images under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported", or "I release these images into the public domain"

So you know, all of these will allow everyone (including wikipedia) the following three rights to your photos. 1) Modification 2) Redistribution 3) Use for any purpose, including commercial purposes.

Sometimes people don't like number 3, so you may want to think about it. I know of someone in Australia who was unhappy after releasing an image of themselves. A travel agency used it in an advertisement, which they didn't like. It's really not that big of a deal, since every picture of a living person on wikipedia is there under the same rules, but I just want to be clear becuase the licenses are irrevocable.

The difference between the three is that the GFDL is for Linux geeks, the creative commons one is the one that some Flickr images come under, and public domain doesn't require a note saying that the image came from you, unlike the first two. I recommend the creative commons one myself, but choose whichever you like.

Good luck. It's kind of a pain in the ass, but once you get the image, no one will ever remove it, which is pretty cool. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 20:27, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

No problem. I forgot to say, there are (too) detailed instructions at Wikipedia:WikiProject Free images and too ask Cirt on his user page to check it after you upload the image. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) (contribs) 20:33, 26 February 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Sxephil.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Sxephil.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:15, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi Kyle,

I'm new to this. I want to state that it was not blatant advertising. I wanted to place it under the wiki news but ended up here. I'm not in any way associated with FIFA or Ticketing for this. I'm just trying to get my hands and feet wet in to the world of wiki. Just wanted to clarify this.

Fort Simpson, Northwest Territories

Just wanted to let you know that if you use {{clear}} like this you get the same effect as the multiple lines. The other advantage is that this does not happen. One of the automatic edits made by Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser is to remove all the empty lines which spoils the page but may not be noticed by the person using it. Cheers.

List of mayors of Edmonton

Thanks for your work on that list. Unfortunately, I've had to remove the image of William Hawrelak, as it was not free and I don't see the image's use there are being compliant with Wikipedia's non-free content policy. If you'd like to further illustrate the article, all of the free images of Edmonton's mayors that I'm aware of can be found in Commons:Category:Mayors of Edmonton.

File:Edmontonmillwoodswind.jpg listed for deletion

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, File:Edmontonmillwoodswind.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted.

Rationale

According to your rationale, that "you have to it needs more than just one soure it needs several. being shown once in one article dose not estsbish it notability", List of Internet phenomena would go from looking like this to looking like this. I've removed all of the phenomena that have either one source, or no sources at all. Only the ones that have "more than just one source" have been kept in this sandbox edit.

Incidentally, many of the ones I removed shared the same source; just like the Mudkip one you removed. Double standards much? You can't have it both ways. Please explain your rationale in regards to my editing to the standards you have set. MelicansMatkin (talk) 01:43, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

the source you provided is not nearly enough to establish notability it just because the other stuff on the page has one soure listed dose not mean they do not have more the have been discussed and came to the conclusion that they were notable you just added it with out any attempt at a discussion of providing sources just a little mention in a broad article is far from enough to be added. Kyle1278 (talk) 01:48, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Last I checked there was no policy stating that every edit made to Wikipedia had to be discussed beforehand. There is also no policy that states more than one source is needed for material to eb included. I was bold and added the information because it is clearly an internet phenomena, and proven to be notable thanks to it being discussed by a reputable and reliable source such as Wall Street Journal. The point stands that according to the rationale you provided, the content on the page would be almost halved (from 49 000+ bytes to just over 26 000). There were five or six items that I removed in my demonstrative edit that shared one source as their only verification; clearly none of those would have been given much more discussion than the WSJ mnetion did. MelicansMatkin (talk) 01:56, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Read the top of the talk page on there the policy's is a bit different and the article you supplied does not fit that policy Google hits and popular on the internet dose not make it notable the one source you provided is not enough if you can find more and talk about it on the talk page then sure it can go up but in till then it can not. Kyle1278 (talk) 02:01, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

What? The Wall Street Journal isn't just a throwaway Google source. It's an international daily newspaper with a readership graeter than 2 million. How can the Wall Street Journal possibly be seen as unnotable? I'm genuinely confused about that. MelicansMatkin (talk) 02:09, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

I never said that the Wall Street Journal is not reliable it the size of the article in it dose not pass as notability if you look at other links in the article the whole source is about the phenomena not like yours where its also about 4chan and other things and if you notice on the talk page it says reliable sources it mean there needs to be more than one. I'am not doing this to just target you i'm just trying to keep the article notable. Kyle1278 (talk) 02:17, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

I understand that you're not trying to target me, and I apologize if my posts are giving the impression that I feel that way. I also understand that you're just trying to keep the article as free from crap as possible. But there are still phenomena mentioned that don't have any sources at all. This article is used to source no less than 12 different phenomena in the article, making it similar to the citation I have provided. MelicansMatkin (talk) 02:37, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

• Notability does not govern article content, and is therefore irrelevant here. Verifiability and NPOV are the major concerns for article content, and there are no such problems here. You are at 3RR on this article – do not revert again. Also, please punctuate properly. It facilitates intelligent discussion. seresin ( ¡? )  02:27, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Being the first person Seresin schooled on Notability, he is correct. Notability only governs the creation of articles, not adding to existent ones. -Jeremy ^{(v^_^v Cardmaker)} 02:40, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Cheers Kyle; you've been a good sport with this discussion, and I apologize again if I came across in the wrong way with the way I worded my posts. MelicansMatkin (talk) 02:48, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

This argument has been discussed before, for example see what seresin says about nine comments down at http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Talk:List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_(241-260)/Archive03#.22So_I_herd_u_like_mudkips.22_in_July_9.2C_2008_Wall_Street_Journal.2C_called_a_viral_phenomenon Habanero-tan (talk) 08:28, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

you deleted my page because and you gave the reason: 'it does not say why it is significant'. i do not see therefore why other band's pages are not deleted, because i used an already existing band's page as a template (no copyrighted material was used). Furthermore, I do not understand fully the purpose of this deletion, because i do not see that significancy is a viable point for speedy deletion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jworules (talk • contribs) 22:00, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Subliminal Noise Deletion

My page was put up for 'speedy deletion' by you under article CSD A7. With all due respect, I fail to see how this applies, because I have made myself fully aware of the rules and regulations of wikipedia, and I fail to see also how my page is not significant. If this is the case, and my page is not significant, why are not more band's pages deleted? I fail to see your logic behind your deletion. Sorry to be so blunt, but I truly feel that the suggested deletion was harsh and by the time it took for you to delete it I think (and correct me if I'm wrong) that it would be impossible for you to have read through the article in its entirity. I apologize, as I said, but I do not honestly feel that you are being fair. Please talk back. This is the page in question: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Subliminal_Noise —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jworules (talk • contribs) 22:07, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

OK, you have said that the band wikipedia page is up for deletion because it is not notable enough. If this is so, you are suggesting that in this massive online encyclopedia with millions of pages that ALL of them are about successful, notable things. Well, there are not that many things that are as notable as you are suggesting, so I do not see how your argument holds up. Jworules (talk) 22:15, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

possibly, the bebo page is not a viable source. But surely this internet Encyclopedia would count as a viable source? If you would let us set a wikipedia page up, of course. Jworules (talk) 22:18, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Aren't we pushing for fairplay and manners on this page? Your comment just then contained neither. Maybe the mods on wikipedia could tell you that aswell. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jworules (talk • contribs) 22:20, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

And you are saying that every single page on wikipedia has these sources? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jworules (talk • contribs) 22:23, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, that's exactly what every one of the millions of pages are. But it's free to edit, so people like you add stuff that needs to be deleted. Can you help us out by marking the articles that aren't notable for deletion? Thanks. It's a lot of work. Habanero-tan (talk) 21:02, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Edmonton

Hi Kyle, I (and probably we) appreciate all the work you've done on the article. However, using scrolling boxes for the ref section is generally frowned upon, as far as I can tell. For one thing, I'm pretty sure it messes up screen readers for blind people. We have at least one blind editor here that I know of and I'm sure many more who come to this site to learn. While I respect your desire to have the article you've worked so hard on look good, this is the encyclopedia for everyone in the world. Everyone.

Also, 150 footnotes is no big news. It's impressive but by no means record-setting. :) The scrollbox has no effect at all on the page-load time. And if you go to GA again with a scrollbox, I pretty much guarantee you will get a plain old NO. Regards & keep up the good work. Franamax (talk) 00:49, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

I understand why you removed it i will not put it back. The reason i put it there is because of the Regina article i have removed it from there but people still but it back. If you could look into this i would be grateful. Kyle1278 (talk) 01:17, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I see what you mean. I've contacted the other editor on that topic. Accessibility is one of those issues that often gets overlooked.

Also, I've refactored this thread to keep it whole on your own talk page, in accordance with my stated preference. Regards! Franamax (talk) 01:43, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Maps

I put the other map back. It's gives a clearer picture of where the place is in relationship to the rest of Canada. I also left a message on their talk page. Cheers. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 23:22, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

We could sure use a better blank map of Canada which displays the territories. I admit mine was not the best but the infoboxes would look a lot better with a decent blank locator map displaying territory rather than the cluttered colourful one you insist on using. Also in future I would prefer you addressing me directly rather than seemingly telling tales to Cambridge weather, I don't know why you felt as if you couldn't say something to me myself Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 10:39, 10 March 2009 (UTC).

Don't worry about. Good work on Nunavut anyway. I had wanted to use File:Canada location map.svg (my intention) but I didn't know the coordinates. Dutch wikipedia however had an even more disgusting looking lurid yellow map with coordinates which if you see I at least tried to improve it, probably to no avail though. I've requested that the svg map is added and coordinates found. If so it should be a good replacement, Cambridge also seems to agree. Regards. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 14:52, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

I was actually asked a few months ago to see if I could request some new maps for Canada. I didn't work out but I swore I'd tried to replace some of the ugly silver ones we have on some of the lower areas like Saskatchewan, Manitoba etc. What would look good I think is if we have a decent regional locator and then a national locator underneath, two lovely clear attractive maps to improve things . My only concern would be that it would lengthen the infoboxes a little but I think it might be a considerable improvement in regards to understanding where these places are. Actually though probably the most difficult maps on wikipedia with pins is America. A lot of the maps are very localised and they shouldn't be really, wikipedia is a global website so it should at least try to help people understand places nationally. I always think a regional and national locator go well together but we'll see how it looks. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 15:00, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

I created a few yesterday like Template:Location map Canada Manitoba. These maps show the internal divisions too which helps I think. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 15:03, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, I know they aren't perfect as I'm not a "professional" map maker like people like Nord are on here but they are certianly an improvement and look decent enough as a pin now. I would like to get hold of a decent map of Nunavut too, perhaps we could eventually get hold of a nice regional locator map for this region. A lot of people tend to neglect this region which I'm very glad editors like you and Cambridge are dedicated to improving. If you ever have any missing article requests, particularly settlements etc let me know and I'll try to generate a few using a map we agree on of course. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 15:19, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

I was thinking of something like the map I created on the right. Major obstacle though is finding the coordinates to make it work. If so I would create a Location map Canada Nunavut asap for us to use. Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 17:15, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

I contest this revert.

Harold Gilliam wrote hundreds of editorials. For someone to cut and paste one of many, probably an opponent of the Fisher Museum in the Presidio, doesn't seem to be good for a wikipedia page unless you want to cut and paste massive quantities of Gilliam's words. I think the link to said editorial was a better answer. Do you even examine changes before reverts or do you just react?

Most of your edits...

And most of your edits have been non-constructive, just reverting me on the basis of an apparent lack of knowledge of what content is acceptable here. For example please see WP:NFC. 141.161.68.46 (talk) 04:34, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

Frankly, after looking this over, I'd remind you to be a bit more careful when reverting. While a few of the prods could have gone either way, that is no reason to revert back to copyrighted material as you did here. Please remember to investigate fully, especially when an IP is likely an established user, as this one seems to be. NuclearWarfare _(Talk) 04:39, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

So in reference to those, I'd like to point out that that was not unconstructive. Take a look at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The US network TV schedule articles.

About "Speedy deletion of Traditional Chinese star names in the Purple Forbidden Enclosure"

Kyle1278 さん、はじめまして。済みません。私の利用者ページの Wikipedia:Babel が "en-1", つまり "I am able to contribute with a basic level of English." なものですから、日本語で失礼します。 標記 "Traditional Chinese star names in the Purple Forbidden Enclosure" の編集についてなのですが、他言語版 (foreign-language Wikipedia pages) から直接 copied and pasted したのがまずかったということでしょうか？ speedy deletion というのは、日本語版の "即時削除" に当たるみたいですね。日本語版では、要約欄に copied and pasted 元のページを明示すれば（つまり履歴の継承をしていれば）copied and pasted した後に翻訳できたかと思います。英語版ではそれもダメということでしょうか？一応、翻訳途中だったのですが（↓このような感じ）：

This is a list of the traditional Chinese star names in the Purple Forbidden Enclosure, Zǐ Wēi Yuán (紫微垣).

Names are arranged into Chnese traditonal constellations.

北極

• 北極一（太子）：γ UMi
• 北極二（帝）：β UMi
• 北極三（庶子）：4 UMi
  • 庶子増一：?
  • 庶子増二：?
  • 庶子増三：?
• 北極四（后宮）：5 UMi
• 北極五（天枢）：32H. Cam

The guideline for adding deaths to current year pages is that the minimum requirement is 9 non-English citations (a very poor standard but there seems to be nothing better). The person should also be internationally and historically significant. I.e. they are known outside the activity for which they are famous in countries other than that in which they are based. I can't see that any professional wrestler would meet this standard. DerbyCountyinNZ 22:16, 30 March 2009 (UTC)

==BFM 89.9

A tag has been placed on BFM 89.9, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of BFM 89.9 and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Susan BFM (talk) 03:53, 31 March 2009 (UTC) ==

My Lai Massacre edit

Dear Kyle, I am a sophomore in highschool and I'm doing research on Vietnam. I happened to run into the article "My Lai Massacre", and this story seems to contradict the stories of what my mom says. My mom lived in Vietnam at the time. Here is my actual edit that I attempted:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Story from my parents - I asked my mom (who lived in Vietnam during this time period) about the My Lai Massacre (Mee-Ly) and she told me that the Vietcong set up this incident. The Vietcong (Guerilla Communists) "Master-mined this incident" by fighting the Americans dressed up as civilians and "pushing civilians into the line of fire". The American soldiers' motive was understandable. I was also told that the vietnamese wrote a memorable song about this incident telling about the truth.

-Andy, Sophomore in highschool

Would you mind adding this to the article, "My Lai Massacre"? Thanks for your time.

Elliot Wave Principle --- recent edit

Hello Kyle1278. In reference to the article on "Elliot Wave Principle", there is a section entitled "Criticism". I added a sentence there linking to an essay critiquing the Elliot Wave Principle. The problem was that the essay appears on a blog [orvinfive.blogspot.com], so you deleted it. The blog contains nothing but the critical essay (i.e. its not commercial, etc.) and I'm sure that it's appropriate to the academic discussion of the article. So is there any way to put the reference back, or at least include it in the external links at the end?

The best format for flags in Wikipedia is SVG. This is because it captures all the lines and shapes of the flag mathematically allowing others to easly edit and manipulate your work. Inkscape is the best free tool for this, but it take time to learn to draw vector images.--Svgalbertian (talk) 15:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

hey.. with regards to the Calgary Stampede.. I only changed it to say 'the world's largest' simply because it is mentioned in the main article found here Calgary Stampede.

G10

Hey Kyle, when you tag something as a G10 for speedy deletion, feel free to blank the page. If it is an attack page, then we want to get it off the web as quickly as possible so that Google doesn't find it and wikiclones don't copy it. An admin can easily look up the history to confirm that it was in fact an attack page.---I'm Spartacus! ^{NO! I'm Spartacus!} 22:48, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Edmonton COA

Hiya. The convention across all coat of arms articles on Wikipedia is to not capitalise 'arms' in the page title. This also follows our MOS, which avoids capitalisation wherever possible.

Your speedy deletion requests

Hello. Why did you decide to blank out École/Escuela Grandin Catholic Elementary School and request its deletion? You were not the only contributor to the article, so the speedy deletion criterion you selected was not applicable. There might be other good reasons to delete it, but I can't see what those reasons are. (The same question applies to three other school articles.) --Orlady (talk) 03:08, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. I guessed that might be what was going on. A better way to handle this situation would be to merge some details from these articles (for example, enrollment and special programs offered) into Edmonton Catholic School District (that is, annotate the list of schools with a little bit of information about each school), then redirect the articles to Edmonton Catholic School District. (This is what is typically done after an article about an elementary school is taken to WP:AfD and is determined to lack sufficient notability to have its own article.) --Orlady (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Kenny Marquez

Hi Kyle,

I may be a little confused, so any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Kenny Marquez is the lead guitarist for the 80's Latin Rock Band Renegade. He's notable for a number of reasons. Primarily because Renegade was the first Latin Rock Band. Although Carlos Santana and Richie Valens obviously predate Renegade, Renegade was the first band that was literally playing rock and heavy metal. Many have followed, but Renegade was the first. Plus, the band has sold in excess of 30 million records worldwide, which in and of itself is notable.

I've tried to convey these facts and properly reference them. I'm obviously not done with the article and could easily spend weeks fine tuning it. But, I would appreciate your providing me with enough guidance so I can avoid having the article deleted before I've even had an opportunity to complete it.

Thanks,

Hey Kyle,

I put in Willard Rowland because there is a push by the Republicans to take funding away from PBS. He has been an advocate for more funding

His whole body of work is about television and violence in the media... lots of books.

And when he was getting his PhD he actually coined the phrased Closed Captioning. He has spent 40 years fighting the fight. He deserves more than I can write about him. He brought all kind of children's programming to the forefront.

Well respected and well hated by the establishment because he keeps pushing for PBS to have it's own news service like the BBC that would not be beholden to anyone.

He deserves a page because he has quietly trying to serve those who don't have a voice in the day to day. OTAN (talk) 16:16, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Willard Rowland

So, what exactly do you want when you say references...

He is very controversial in the esoteric communications / public broadcasting world. Is it quotes/research/writings/ books that you want?

I think it is a voice that needs to be heard even if he ruffles the feathers of commercial broadcasters, the cable industry and the satellite companies. And that doesn't even touch the violence in the media research vis a vis the conservative movement that he disproves with his data (violence in the media according to Rowland does not cause violence in society contrary to what Fox Network says...)

Thanks for not deleting yet... I will read about others who are living, breathing... and try to make it a good site.

Recent edits using Checklinks tool

Hi Kyle, I've just reverted your recent edit at the Vancouver article. [3] Here are my grounds:

• Your edit summary says "Tagging 3 dead links using Checklinks". In fact, your edit also added the "accessdate=" parameter to several ref's. Did you personally view those links to confirm that they properly support the cited claim in the article? If not, you may be making a false claim of authenticity. For instance, I could make a link to www.poopoo.org/whoopdedoo.htm - as long as I made that page exist on the internet, would you have added the accessdate= parameter, which confirms that you yourself accessed the link?
• Your script also renamed (i.e. consolidated) duplicate references, and this is not reflected in the edit summary. A better practice would be to summarise with "updating ref's and taggind dead links using Checklinks", so that reviewing editors would have a better idea what to expect.
• You added a {{deadlink}} template to a reference which already had an archive link (The Smith & Kennedy source in Affiliated Cities...). This is incorrect. If the archive-link format is incorrect, please fix it rather than apply a tag which could be confusing to our readers.

Looking back to your previous use of Checklinks [4], I'm just wondering - are you familiar with the Wayback Machine? It's really easy, when you find a dead link, you just go to www.archive.org and paste it in. If the machine finds it, for most ref templates you just add the "archiveurl=" and "archivedate=" parameters and 'tis all fixed! I just did that for one of the dead links in the Calgary article. [5]

I appreciate your enthusiasm and I'm not trying to be critical of your efforts, it's just that I myself am always much happier when I fix something as opposed to when I tag something for someone else to fix. Regards! Franamax (talk) 01:14, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Asking a favour.

Hi, I saw that you created the image on the Barbados–Canada_relations article ( [6] ). Thanks! I wanted to ask a favour. Do you suppose when you had a bit of free time you could reverse the colours for the two nations??? I tried to alter the text below the template (the one with the flags on the right-hand side of that article's page) and I've been unsuccessful. The template doesn't quite let me alter the colour key below. The only other alternative would be to move the article instead to "Canada–Barbados_relations" for the colours to match what is on the map, and the article to match the template. However, I think WP prefers the Barbados-Canada name style since, it is in alphabetical error? The only problem is if I leave it as "Barbados–Canada_relations", it now says Barbados is the Green one and Canada is the Orange one.  :-) *I'm going to set this page on "watch" for a bit, so that if you wanted to respond you could just do that here under my comment.

Coords — DEC vs. DMS

Hi. You've been making a slight error in the title coordinates you've put in several articles, e.g. Wimborne, Alberta, taking coordinates expressed in decimal degrees and interpreting them as degrees minutes & seconds. The problem is that minutes are 1/60-ths of a degree, not 1/100-ths, and seconds are 1/60²-ths of a degree, not 1/100²-ths.

Note the differences between the 1st and 4th, and the 2nd and 3rd below:

{{Coord|51.514907|-113.354354 }}	→	51.514907°N 113.354354°W / 51.514907; -113.354354
{{Coord|51.514907|-113.354354 |format=dms}}	→	51°30′54″N 113°21′16″W
{{Coord|51|51|49.07|N|113|35|43.54|W }}	→	51°51′49.07″N 113°35′43.54″W
{{Coord|51|51|49.07|N|113|35|43.54|W |format=dec }}	→	51.8636306°N 113.5954278°W / 51.8636306; -113.5954278

Also, unless you're giving the coords of something more specific than the general center of a place, there's no need to be so precise — 0.01″ defines a location to within about 30 centimetres, while 0.000001° defines it to within about 10 cm.

Sub stubs

Hi. Have you checked to see if these settlements are really notable? I believe most inhabited settlements are notable but check out Clinton for instance on a google map here. Do you see a town, or even anything that looks remotely like a village? You might be excused with village articles on the developing world not finding much online but for countries like Canada and Australia there really ought to be government/census detail online so at least they are referenced... Dr. Blofeld ^{White cat} 23:02, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Loveday, South Australia is still on the short side but at least it now resembles an encyclopedia article, as it stands that is a decent stub. Its just in my experience stubs about hamlets or small villages, especially one liners x is a village in South Australia that's it, tend to be lying about a long time.... That's not to say we shouldn't have them, I believe we should have articles on most populated settlements but developing them to a decent level is the difficult part given the few editors who actively work on them. I've created more than my fair share of short stubs in my time and I gradually learned that most of them do not get expanded within a short time frame anyway so it is basically the responsibility of the creator to at least add a fact or two and a reference. This is why now I try to ensure the stubs contain at least some information so they are useful stubs even if sources are not abundant and not demanding other editors to try to fill out the one liners. I understand the quality vs quantity problem. At times it is a dilemna because you often find like hundreds or thousands of articles on one topic missing which wikipedia should have articles on by now but you only have limited amount of time to get through them so quality is often reduced in favour of tackling a mass. I find the more time you spend on each stubs the less motivated you feel in tackling masses of articles on the same subject. I understand, its finding a balance....

Proposed deletion of Saint Andrews, New Zealand

The article Saint Andrews, New Zealand has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable locality. Doesn't appear in the Reed Atlas of New Zealand, or on Google maps in this location. There are places named St Andrews in New Zealand, but they're not more than localities, and they aren't at the coords given

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

If this is simply that you mistyped the coordinates, then feel free to just correct them and remove the prod notice. However, I doubt that the locality near Timaru is particularly notable either, although I can confirm that it exists. Are you simply filling in articles for the redlinks in List of towns in New Zealand, or do you have a particular interest in the localities you are creating stubs for? My feeling is that not every placename listed on a map is suitable for an article, and it might be better to remove the entries from the list article for localities which are little more than a placename. My personal rule of thumb is that locality is suitable for an article if it has a primary school, although there are undoubtedly localities which never had or no longer have a school but have a rich history or some unusual feature which makes them worth writing about.gadfium 18:50, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

disambiguation of Quebec placenames

The French Wikipedia seems to disambiguate Quebec placenames by MRC, as in fr:Saint-Sébastien (Le Granit). You created Saint-Sébastien, Estrie, Quebec, which disambiguates by administrative region. Should the English article be moved to Saint-Sébastien, Le Granit, Quebec to be consistent? Three pages have links to that page: See Special:WhatLinksHere/Saint-Sébastien,_Le_Granit,_Quebec. I added some information from the French article to the English article and wanted to add interwiki links to both pages, which is why I am asking this question. This also applies to any other municipalities in Le Granit with names duplicated elsewhere. - Eastmain (talk) 17:41, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
