Inline Citations edit

Hey I'm just curious as to your thoughts on inline citations for provincial curling qualifications as I have done at 2011 Safeway Championship for Manitoba. It is my belief that as per WP:VERIFY WP:SOURCES and WP:IC that as much material as possible without over-saturation should be cited properly inline; so as to provide validity, cross referencing, and possible future material for editors to draw upon for red linked articles. Unfortunately I've had some disagreements with one particular editor who insists moving the references to the first introductory paragraph of the articles such as what has been done at the 2011 Manitoba Scotties Tournament of Hearts. While I'm not about to get into an editing war over such a trivial matter, I do believe that citations should follow Wikipedia guidelines and I'm looking for a third or even fourth or fifth opinion on the matter so I've come to you! Anyways please let me know your thoughts on the matter, whether to continue as originally cited or just remove them altogether as it no longer complies with Wiki formats. Cheers for now, Krazytea(talk) 20:39, 14 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

January 2011 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Stony Mountain Curling Club, a page you have created yourself. If you do not believe the page should be deleted, you can place a {{hangon}} tag on the page, under the existing speedy deletion tag (please do not remove the speedy deletion tag), and make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will look at your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. Phearson (talk) 00:36, 26 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Swing in Acadie—Bathurst edit

How exactly did you calculate this, out of curiousity? I can't find the source of how to do these, and I can't figure out the math, either. - 142.166.95.83 (talk) 12:10, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I suppose I should sign in if I want a response, shouldn't I? - Wmcduff (talk) 12:25, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
I thought so. I still can't figure where the +14.7% came from. NDP gained 7.5% and the Libs lost 8.7% in Acadie—Bathurst which would 16.2%. Even if you subtract the Conservatives 1.7% gain, that's 14.5%. - Wmcduff (talk) 13:01, 4 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
OK, can't figure out where you got the 7.33 from on the swing this time. :) My best guess is that the NDP went to 69.69 from 57.53 (12.16% difference) and the Conservatives went from 18.54 to 16.20 (2.34% difference). The average for these two is 7.25%, though. NDP gain to second place comes out as 9% even. NDP, Conservative and Liberal changes divided by three is 7.51%... What is the formula again? - Wmcduff (talk) 14:31, 6 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Riding articles edit

Hey Earl, thanks for your work on federal riding articles. I am concerned about the commentaries that you have added to a number of articles (e.g., this one).

Outline of Quebec edit

I noticed you are a participant of the WikiProject Quebec.

The Outline of Quebec was created a few days ago and is under vigorous development. It fills a gap in Wikipedia's set of outlines. It is the 3rd outline to date about a Canadian province/territory.

Outlines form one of the subsystems of Wikipedia's contents navigation system. For more information on outlines, see Wikipedia:Outlines and Wikipedia:WikiProject Outlines.

The goals for the Outline of Quebec is to complete it to as high a standard of quality as possible, and to make it even better than the Outline of Saskatchewan and the Outline of British Columbia.

Once the Outline of Quebec is completed, it will provide an important example to others creating outlines for the remaining provinces and territories of Canada.

Please take a look at the outline to see if you can notice (and fill in) any missing topics. Pictures would also be nice (the rarer and the more interesting, the better).

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on File:Quelng.PNG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay.

Hey Earl, I was about to move back the article to hyphen the correct title Port Moody-Westwood. And there was an error message not to move.

Could you move the article "Port Moody-Westwood" to it's correct title "Port Moody-Westwood". The article Port Moody-Westwood uses small information and the article is a stub.
