List of Cadet Units in British Columbia

I like the format of the list that you used for this article. Do you think maybe it's better to work on just improving the main list, List of Air Cadet Squadrons in Canada instead of setting precedent for having one of these lists per squadron? One idea that I had is that we could make a table that's sortable by province and/or element. Sancho 07:14, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

Moved misplaced message from above

Theosaul: It is clear that you do not have permission to create this page or publish on behalf of the Canadian Forces. Did you consult with a higher authority in advance. It is important that you do. 24.108.176.42 (talk) 03:08, 24 January 2008 (UTC) Comment moved by Sancho 05:52, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Theosaul, you don't need permission from the Canadian Forces to create an article on Wikipedia. It is understood that no author on Wikipedia is publishing on behalf of the Canadian Forces, including you, so you don't have to worry about a need to consult a higher authority. Besides, how would we even know if you are in the Canadian Forces to begin with :-) Sancho 05:52, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of Regional Cadet Support Unit (Pacific)

2947 12 (Vancouver) Service Battalion Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article 2947 12 (Vancouver) Service Battalion Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of 2947 12 (Vancouver) Service Battalion Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps. Sancho 07:32, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Notability

Hi Theosaul, I just wanted to say a bit more as regards my reasons for nominating for deletion a couple of articles you have been working on. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and has an inclusion guideline to help determine what subjects are notable enough for an article to be written about them in this encyclopedia. This guideline can be found at Wikipedia:Notability. For organizations, a more specialized guideline has been written at Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies). I'll quote the relevant section of this guideline here:

A company, corporation, organization, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources should be cited to establish notability. Trivial or incidental coverage of a subject by secondary sources is not sufficient to establish notability. Once notability is established, primary sources may be used to add content. Ultimately, and most importantly, all content must be attributable.

As well,

Individual chapters of national and international organizations are usually not notable enough to warrant a separate article unless sufficient notability is established through reliable sources. However, chapter information may be included in list articles as long as only verifiable information is included.

It is for these reasons that I have nominated for deletion several articles related to individual squadrons/corps/training centres. Sancho 08:09, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Vernon_ACSTC.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Vernon_ACSTC.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).

Cadets Canada

Hi, I see you've linked the word "cadets" to the article on Cadets Canada, however, Cadets Canada is just a marketing name. Maybe a better link would be to the article Royal Canadian Army Cadets. Sancho 21:40, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

The Meeting of the Waters

Hi there. Regarding your edit to the article above, this is to inform you that I reverted your edit, as you did not follow wiki policies. The right way is (1) to create a "Disambiguation" page explaining the several meaning, (2) to create a new article with the exact name you use there (with march in parenthesis), and finally, (3) to add a link in the top article redirecting to the disambiguation page. Also notice that there is already a discussion I opened in the Talk Page to change the name, at least to drop "The", you are welcome to give you point of view. --Mariordo (talk) 03:07, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
