Salacious Details edit
It's hard not to talk about Fantasy Gardens, or many other BC scandals, without being "over the top". Vander Zalm himself is "over the top" as are Faye Leung and Tan Yu and Peter Toigo. I can make another go at it and will try to avoid editorializing; the nicknames are common-usage in BC; would they be better put in the BC section(s) of Canadian English or do you object to their presence here? The details of the party in the Bayshore Inn I'd have to dig up from a newspaper somewhere; presumably best thing to do, then, is quote?Skookum1 22:21, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
Could someone please look at this
or do YOU think it doesn't belong here? Thanks 85.245.30.248 (talk) 14:11, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV edit
I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
- This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
- There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
- It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
- In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.
- This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 01:29, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
