Hello! Your submission at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Alawa (talk) 16:41, 22 July 2011 (UTC) (You need to source the kidnapping story.)

I reviewed this before it went on the Main page and found that you were, shall we say, a little too dependent on this source you used. I rewrote it for you so that won't be an issue.

Please, for your own sake as well as Wikipedia's, don't let this happen again. There is a major witch hunt going on at the moment, and you don't need to be caught up in it. Daniel Case (talk) 05:45, 31 July 2011 (UTC)

Bill Temple

Bill Temple was part of a "Ginger Group" that was battling for key positions on the Ontario CCF's executive, at the Ontario CCF's 1952 convention. They reluctantly supported Ted Jolliffe as the leader, but ran Bill Temple against Ted Isley for president. (Keeping the Dream Alive, p. 39)

The convention battle took place at Toronto's King Edward Hotel, in April 1952. Isely narrowly defeated Temple 112 to 85. Temple was then elected a vice-president on the party's executive. (Keeping the Dream Alive, p.42)

Wait for consensus

I removed your merge proposal and reverted your move to Canadian Forces Maritime Command. Please read the talk page before taking such actions. See WT:MILHIST for the current discussion. CharlieEchoTango 02:21, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Hey Vale of Glamorgan, thanks for your contributions to the articles and the discussion, it's appreciated! ;) Best, CharlieEchoTango 21:13, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Ontario CCF

Hi Vale: I noticed you changed the name of the Ontario CCF to "Co-operative Commonwealth Federation, Ontario Section." I reverted because in the literature that I have been reading, it does not come out that way. If you can point to a good source, with page reference, that clearly states that the name is indeed "Ontario Section", than I would gladly put it back in.--Abebenjoe (talk) 06:52, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

That seems to be a library designation, not what the party calls itself.Abebenjoe (talk) 07:11, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

All those documents are without a preview, so I can't read them. It still seems like a library classification, rather than its official name. I'll take a look at some of my actual books, and see if it says anything, but from what I've read, that does not seem to be the name the party itself used.Abebenjoe (talk) 07:18, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Ok, if it comes from the pen and typewriter of Joseph Noseworthy or Morden Lazarus, than it must be correct. The funny thing about this, and I've checked about five different books now, the authors always say Province, then the abbreviated "CCF". I found one reference to Saskatchewan as the "CCF (Saskatchewan Section)', but not completely spelled out. It would also appear that the secondary name is Farmer-Labor party of Ontario. The lead sentence should now read "Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (Ontario Section)–The Farmer-Labor Party of Ontario, or more informally known as The Ontario CCF. . ." Attribution should be included in the Origins section. Thank you for catching that. I'll have to look through the CCF Constitution again and see if it is there, that would be an even better source, but for now, this is great.Abebenjoe (talk) 08:04, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Flagging Bill Grummett for further review

Hello, Vale of Glamorgan … I recently encountered the article about Bill Grummett and in my opinion, it either does not verifiably satisfy the Notability criteria for Biographies, or it may violate the Conflict of interest guideline, or perhaps it violates a copyright.

I am considering tagging Bill Grummett (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) for deletion according to the Deletion policy … I do not have time to examine the article in depth at the moment, and it may improve over time, in which case this warning was premature.

I have created this initial entry on your Talk page because you are either the original author of the article, or else a recent contributor to it; I will leave more detailed information regarding my specific concerns about the article on its Discussion page … please respond either there or on this Talk page, instead of on my Talk page, in order to avoid fragmenting the conversation.

Be sure to read Ownership of articles, and remember that Some Other Editors (including at least one administrator) may not share your opinion about the notability of the article's subject.

I do not mean to imply that your contribution is unappreciated … perhaps you should read Starting an article … and remember, there was a time when I knew less about how Wikipedia works than you know right now.

To better understand why I have used this template, please read Flag templates for deletion warnings … I apologize if some of the expressed possible concerns may not be appropriate in this case. —Abebenjoe (talk) 00:53, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

I only made one edit prior to your tagging, and that was just adjusting a link. However, I think being an MPP makes one notable to have an article so it shouldn't be deleted, just sourced. Vale of Glamorgan (talk) 01:00, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

My apologies, I thought you wrote the article. As it is written it could easily be deleted for notability due to its unverifiablility. Being an MPP alone, is not notable though, and the article is poorly written. I haven't tagged it for deletion because I believe Grummett must be notable due to him being the only CCF MPP to get elected in every election between 1943 to 1955. However, I have lost notability battles before due to a lack of reliable references.Abebenjoe (talk) 01:13, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Just a heads up to Abebenjoe, MPPs are inherently notable per WP:POLITICIAN (province-wide office). Best, CharlieEchoTango 01:56, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

i.e. "Politicians and judges who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office, and members or former members of a national, state or provincial legislature." - good to know. Vale of Glamorgan (talk) 02:22, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Template:Ontario General Election 2011

Hello User:Vale of Glamorgan! Unfortunately, I still can't get the hang of making templates for political party templates (as your revert showed).

The Templates do exist, they just aren't showing up. Could you help me retool them to get them to work?

• Template:Canadian politics/party colours/Paramount
• Template:Canadian politics/party colours/Paramount/row

Thanks!

Jonathan Kay's middle name

Re this edit: You're right. Kay "worked as a lawyer with the New York City office of Goodman Phillips Vineberg", becoming "a member of the New York bar in 1998", which agrees with Justia.com. I guess Justia got the info from the New York bar association, complete with full name (which would explain the "Claim and update your profile" option).

OTOH, this is technically Original Research, and he apparently never uses that middle name himself. The copyright page for Among The Truthers lists him with no middle name, for example. (Maybe he hates it?) So I'd slightly prefer to leave his middle name out of the article. What do you think?

Woops/arrrgh: I forgot to sign the preceding comment.

This conversation continues and concludes at my talk page. Thanks, VoG. CWC 02:04, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Kady O'Malley

The article Kady O'Malley has been proposed for deletion because, under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

More information needed about File:Gracelorchelizabetheckford.jpg

Hello, Vale of Glamorgan!

It was really helpful of you to you to upload File:Gracelorchelizabetheckford.jpg. However, we need to properly format the image license information in order to keep and use new images.

If you can edit the description and add one of these templates, that would be great. If you're not sure how or would like some help, please ask us at the media copyright questions page and we'll be happy to assist you.

Thanks again! --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:07, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for improving the new Spivak wording on the Business Plot, especially for wikifying what I just copied and pasted. I should have done so myself. Your wording on Schmidt's take is also much better than mine was. Huon (talk) 21:14, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

One Life to live

Thank you for your contributions on the One Life Life to Live releated articles. But they had to be reverted because we never put ending dates or ending years until a show has actually aired its final episode. The present always has priority over the future here on Wikipedia. Thus, you can come back with theses edits after the show has aired its final episode. Thank you for your understanding and happy editing. Farine (talk) 08:23, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
