Shields

Per the WikiProject shield standards, shields need to be 20px tall when placed in-line. This requires a width of 20px for most 2-digit shields and 25px for most 3-digit shields. (Width is the value you pass to an image.) —Scott5114↗ [EXACT CHANGE ONLY] 02:03, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Crémazie

Please don't disambiguate titles unless there's actually something else of the same name to distinguish them from. And even if there is a need to disambiguate, we always choose the least complex title at which the topic is uniquely-named — that is, Crémazie (electoral district) would be sufficient. The rule on here is to only disambiguate when it's absolutely necesary, not to preemptively disambiguate every single article of a particular class. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 03:54, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

It depends on what the name of the riding is:

1. If it's a unique name, it can just be at "name".
2. If it's not a unique name in general but is unique among electoral districts, it can be at "name (electoral district)".
3. If there's been a federal riding of the same name but no other provincial one, then it needs to be at "name (provincial electoral district)".
4. If there's been another provincial riding in another province by the same name, then they'd go to "name (Actual Name of Province electoral district)". We'd only have to go all the way to "Actual Name of Province provincial electoral district" if there's actually been a federal riding of the same name and a provincial riding of the same name in another province — I can't absolutely say for sure without checking, but I'm not aware of any case that's actually that crazy.

I know it seems kind of confusing, but Wikipedia actually does have a rule about not disambiguating titles unless we absolutely have to. Basically, the rule is to always use the simplest available title at which the topic doesn't conflict with any other topics at their simplest available titles. (For example, this is why we have Rouyn-Noranda instead of "Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec", but Hamilton, Ontario instead of "Hamilton" — there's nothing else in the world called Rouyn-Noranda, but there are a lot of other things called Hamilton.) Hope that helps a bit :-) Bearcat (talk) 04:11, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

The general practice for redirect pages is that they're usually considered harmless and not worth the trouble of actually bothering to delete them. There are some cases where a redirect would actually get deleted:

1. if it's from a really implausible misnomer or spelling error that's unlikely to ever actually get used (e.g. if somebody created a redirect from "Muntttreowlll" to Montreal),
2. if it creates a biased or tendentious assertion (e.g. if somebody redirected "worst prime minister ever" to Stephen Harper),
3. if it's standing in the way of a more appropriate use of the redirect (e.g. if for some weird reason somebody had redirected the alternate title Ottawa, Ontario to Heinz Ketchup instead of Ottawa).

But for a redirect that isn't actually causing any harm, WP:RFD will usually just say "redirects are cheap" and leave it in place. Bearcat (talk) 06:08, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Maps of Quebec regions

Hello,

I was wondering where you get the source of the images you make of Quebec Municipalities such as Dundee_Quebec_location_diagram as I am interested in making one on a slightly larger scale for the Chateauguay Valley and the Chateauguay River amongst others. Many thanks. Sirtrebuchet (talk) 03:05, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

Map of Urban agglomeration of Longueuil

Congratulations on the excellent job you have been doing in making all the maps that were desperately needed for various Quebec articles. I have, however, noticed a small problem with your map of the Urban agglomeration of Longueuil. Saint-Lambert's borders are too large, because the map shows the former Saint-Lambert-LeMoyne borough and not uniquely the city of Saint-Lambert. LeMoyne has since joined the Vieux-Longueuil borough, and therefore, that borough's map is too small. The correct map can be found here: [1]. Notice the slightly different borders between Greenfield Park, Vieux-Longueuil and Saint-Lambert. Cheers. MTLskyline (talk) 22:53, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Geographic Location template

Please refrain from changing the formating in the Geographic Location templates, as I am in the process of adding and updating this for all municipalities in Ontario and Quebec. This template is used not just for these provinces but everywhere elso too, so, as you can appreciate, changing the formating would make it inconsistent. Thanks. -- P199 (talk) 18:19, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

• Adding colour will not impact the template itself but its appearance which I'm trying to keep consistent. I agree that the template page doesn't give much instruction on its use, so I have modelled the look after the most common use of this template throughout WP. -- P199 (talk) 19:00, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
  • Having done all northeastern Ontario, Abitibi and Outaouais, now moving into the Laurentides, I haven't seen or updated southwest Quebec yet. IMHO, geographic features (lakes, rivers, etc) should not stand out with bold text since this template focuses on municipalites. And yes, I spend way too much time on WP, I guess that makes me a Wikipedian... -- P199 (talk) 19:30, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
    • Your proposal sounds good. Can you provide me a sample of it somewhere so I can see what you mean? -- P199 (talk) 20:01, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
      • Stacking geographic features with municipalities will make it seem that they are north/south of each other (as in your example). I kindly suggest the following: -- P199 (talk) 20:47, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

• • • • Commas or slashes, it doesn't really matter. I don't want to insist on anything, just trying to present the info within the box somewhat consistently so it is logical and clear to readers. Regards, -- P199 (talk) 14:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Infoboxes

Just so you know, {{pagename}} isn't supposed to sit directly in articles as a transclusion. If there's a pressing reason for the top of an infobox to say "Dunham, Quebec" rather than "(City or Ville) of Dunham", then you need to either type "Dunham, Quebec" directly, or use {{subst:pagename}} so that the actual text of the page name replaces the template once you hit save. If you don't do one of those things, a bot or a user on cleanup patrol will always come up behind you and subst out the "pagename" template anyway, so there's not much point in insisting on it.

Also, the traditional consensus at WP:CWNB has been that the infobox on a place's article should generally have "(City/Town/Village/Whatever) of Name" at the top of the infobox, rather than "Name, Province". We can always change the consensus if there's a good reason to do so — but if you're just replacing it with the pagename template because you think that's what's expected, it isn't. But if you've got a good reason beyond just thinking that's what we were supposed to do, then it's okay as long as you explain it so that we know what the real reason is and don't think it was just an error.

Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 22:20, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

If a place has a straightforward "Parish/Municipality/Village/whatever" designation, then yeah, that's what should be used. I don't think there's ever been a consensus around what to do with villes — I think most people just use "city" for all of them unless there's an actual indication in reliable sources that "town" is specifically preferred (as, frex, Mount Royal). My own tendency has been to just use ville de in the topline regardless of language issues; it would also be acceptable to just put "name".

As for the article structure, while there are a few editors who've structured articles by preinserting empty section headers, there's never really been a broad consensus for it. I don't see a valid reason not to do it, but there are other editors who will strip out the empty headers if and when they see the article. Bearcat (talk) 18:09, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Communities in Nova Scotia

I'm having a hard time understanding why you are adding the names of communities in Nova Scotia where they don't belong. It looks like you are taking the communities in a County, and adding them to the individual articles. A couple of examples are Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and Shelburne, Nova Scotia. You have added the names of every community in those counties to the articles for the towns I just listed. Also look at Clyde River, Nova Scotia, which is a small community in Shelburne County, Nova Scotia. You have added a long list of communities to the Clyde River article which are not part of that community, they are the other communities that make up the county. Can you at least explain why you are doing this? 142.167.228.252 (talk) 23:21, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

I found the problem already. The link you are using is refering to community health boards, not a list of communities. This is the heading for Clyde River in the link you gave me.

Community Health Board: Shelburne County County: Shelburne County District Health Authority: South West Health Province: Nova Scotia Country: Canada

When it states after this the various communities included are not communites in Clyde River, but the places that are included in this particular health board which is Shelburne County. Clude River itself is a very small community and doesn't contain any of the communities listed. 142.167.228.252 (talk) 00:52, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

I should add that you are doing a good job editing the Nova Scotia communities, and that adding the names was just a misunderstanding that could happen to anyone. Don't let this stop you from continuing to edit the Nova Scotia articles as you have done good work with the highway articles and such. 142.167.228.252 (talk) 01:02, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

User rights

Firstly - oops, that was supposed to be "autoreviewed", not "confirmed". You're already autoconfirmed because you've been here long enough and made enough edits; you don't need manual confirmation.

Secondly - "autoreviewed" means that you've got enough of a track record for creating valid articles that it is no longer worth the effort to patrol your articles individually. We know your stuff won't be crap, and so we don't have to check it; henceforth, anything you create is considered "already checked", and it will automatically be removed from the list of pages that need to be checked.

Outline of Quebec

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.

• Wikipedia Contents
  • Outlines
    • Outline of geography
      • Outline of North America
        • Outline of Canada
          • Outline of Alberta
          • Outline of British Columbia
          • Outline of Manitoba
          • Outline of New Brunswick
          • Outline of Newfoundland and Labrador
          • Outline of Nova Scotia
          • Outline of Ontario
          • Outline of Quebec
          • Outline of Prince Edward Island
          • Outline of Saskatchewan
          • Outline of the Northwest Territories
          • Outline of Nunavut
          • Outline of Yukon

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.

Bromont, Quebec switched counties.

A while back, Bromont changed its county from La Haute-Yamaska to Brome-Missisquoi.

Proposed deletion of List of Quebec provincial electoral districts

The article List of Quebec provincial electoral districts has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

This is just an empty article hosting Template:QC-ED for some reason...

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Quebec infobox formatting

Hi Gord, note that all the Quebec settlement infoboxes were standardized and uniform before, so please don't increase image and map sizes in the infoboxes from the standard 250px to 275px without discussion and consensus. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 16:19, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

• Thanks for understanding. BTW, standard size for the southern Quebec map is the default (250) but for the regular full Quebec map it is 197 (to limit the length of the infobox). In order to reduce the length some more, I shorten the map captions as well (see [2]). Regards, P 1 9 9  ✉ 16:48, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
  • I saw Sorel-Tracy. Yes, the southern Quebec map is fine. Note that 250px is the default size for images and maps, so I removed those lines altogether to prevent future tinkering. I also removed the bold formatting in the map captions (because it doesn't show right anyway) and abbreviated "Regional County Municipality" to RCM. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 17:02, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Geographic Location template 2

Hi Gord, I noticed you are adding "Adjacent Municipal Subdivisions" above every geo box. I don't think it's necessary (none of the boxes anywhere else have it...). But did you know you can add a heading to the boxes much simpler? There is a "title" parameter for that:

{{Geographic location
 | title     = '''Adjacent Municipal Subdivisions
 | Centre    = Place
}}

gives:

Regards, -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 12:51, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

• I only find out about this now, LOL! I thought it would be better to stipulate what the geo box is actually referring to, especially since I have found entries involving municipalities bordering on counties (and even a region in one case). Take a look at Mirabel, Quebec, which has two specific geo boxes as an example. I've also started adding geographic info to certain municipalities...check out Dundee, Quebec as an example and give me our feedbck. Thanks! Gordalmighty (talk) 14:48, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
  • Mirabel is a special case because it is not only a municipality, it is also like a RCM. As for Dundee, great work. Nice to see articles expanded with real content! -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 15:44, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
    • Thanks for the quick reply! I would still consider keeping the geobox header...it also acts to separate the content from the references AND will hopefully dissuade editors from entering non-municipal (or county) info where it shouldn't be as per Wiki directives. I will use the template "title" line instead though.
    • BTW: There is another user who has tweaked some municipality coordinates, probably to better place them on the pushpins. But now it doesn't match the data on the Quebec toponymie website. Is this no big deal, or does it sort of make the link somewhat invalid? Example: Dundee, Quebec has been slightly tweaked, Mont-Carmel, Quebec has been tweaked to the point of adding seconds in the coord field. Thanks (again)! Gordalmighty (talk) 16:07, 30 April 2013 (UTC)
      • There is not much direction on what coords to use (except not to be overly precise, see MOS:COORDS). So I had been using the coords as provided by CTQ. I am not concerned about this, except if it's wrong. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 18:07, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Canada census

Hi Gord, nice to see you are still working hard at Quebec articles. Thanks for all your work. Can I suggest to use {{Historical populations}} for the older census data? I almost thought you had deleted it, because it is poorly visible and poorly formatted at the bottom of the {{Canada census}} template. See Côte-Nord-du-Golfe-du-Saint-Laurent, Quebec, where I used the Historical populations template.

Also, <big> text that you use in the geobox title is inconsistent formatting and unnecessary. Using regular text or bold as shown above (#Geographic Location template 2) is better. Or maybe not use it at all (except where there are multiple boxes, like Aparri, Cagayan), because that would seem to be consistent with all other geobox use. I guess it is really understood that they are "Adjacent Municipal Subdivisions".

Regards, -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 15:29, 31 January 2014 (UTC)

• The {{Canada census}} template shows census highlights for the last 3 censuses, whereas the {{Historical populations}} template is strictly for population counts and can go back as far as censuses were done. So no overlap, it's just that no data has been added for historical populations before 1991 for most Quebec places.

With "inconsistent formatting" I mean that big text is not used for anything else and it is not consistent with geobox use for other places, like all of Ontario. IMO, the big text is too much, really why should the text stand out? My preference is no title...

You can just reply here, I will watch this page. That way the conversation says together. Regards, -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 00:26, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

• • Okay for census infobox. I thought the footnotes were a bit too populated anyways. As far as the geobox, the reason I intended to add them was to distinguish between municipal subdivisions and RCMs. Some municipalities have both statuses Mirabel, Quebec that require it. Oddly enough, I did this one without the big text in the first place. So I guess I could go back and change them eventually, but that could take a while. Gordalmighty (talk) 01:19, 1 February 2014 (UTC)
    • Yes, I totally agree that for places with multiple boxes it is needed to have a title (whether it is for different statuses like Mirabel, Quebec, or for non-contiguous areas like Rivière-Rouge). Thanks for your efforts. -- P 1 9 9  ✉ 02:52, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

New 10,000 Challenge for Canada

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Canada/The 10,000 Challenge is up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge for the UK which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
