Welcome to Wikipedia, Knest! Don't worry about this "mistake"; remember that Wikipedia policy is to be bold. There is no damage done at all. Just a note: VfD is not just for administrators; anyone can vote and nominate articles. It is, however, administrators who "close" VfDs once they have reached consensus.

Kelowna Airport

Just wanted to let you know why I removed the International from the info box. I've been working on the Canadian airports and the main source of info I have is the Canada Flight Supplement (CFS) put out by NavCanada. After doing some of the airports I found that there are several that have more than one offical name. Check out Toronto Pearson International Airport which here GTAA states their offical name and which NavCanada lists as Toronto/Lester B. Pearson International Airport. I think what happens is that the airport authority changes the name and it doesn't get updated by NavCanada. However, I also realise that the CFS can be in error. I have reported several over the years, such as different airports listed with the same ICAO code! What I plan to do is come back later after I've finished my current project and work a sentence into the article that gives both names in a sensible way. Cheers.

Ice Hockey Project discussion of hockey player notability and project scope

Please come join the WikiProject Ice Hockey Notability standards for hockey players discussion. I'd like to see input from all our project members who have an opinion. Thanks! ColtsScore 23:55, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Succession Boxes

Alright, I've never seen you help on CJAHL teams and you didn't leave any real explanation.... so I am going to ask... why did you revert the succession boxes? I was trying to see if it would be a strong and logical way to link a team to its different accomplishments and you did a revert without dropping me a line... would have been nice. DMighton 23:14, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Alright... I had a second look and saw what you did... IS there some way we can adjust those succession boxes to include the tournaments of the previous and future champions? DMighton 23:19, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

After some time to think about it... simplicity might be better. It'll work. DMighton 00:52, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

I like "and" because these aren't hyphenated dates... feels better. DMighton 01:38, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

DYK

On 16 May, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Aaron Gagnon, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Infoboxes

If you are interested, we need to update the infoboxes on the other BCHL teams too. DMighton 00:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Personally, I like the "Hockey team" infoboxes... I think they are sharp looking. Maybe a championship template would be better... DMighton 16:55, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Hmmm... not bad... BUT... you should get rid of the seperating lines and the colour changes... I think that will look much more professional. DMighton 20:49, 23 May 2007 (UTC) Also, what about "affiliate teams" and "name chages"... these are generally important and useful in am infobox. DMighton 20:51, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Ice Hockey August 2007 Newsletter

WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear Nurmsook! You are receiving this newsletter because you have signed up as a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey. The purpose of this newsletter is to update on the goings on of the project, as there have been major changes, and a lot of new recognized content in the past few weeks. If you are an inactive user, you probably won't recognize the new and improved state of the WikiProject! From the project, Maxim. New recognized content By Maxim There have been a lot more Good and Featured articles written in the past few weeks. Here is a list: Featured articles Wayne Gretzky — Promoted on 2006-02-14; on Main Page on 2006-06-13 New Jersey Devils — Promoted on 2006-11-20; on Main Page on 2007-06-30 Martin Brodeur — Promoted on 2007-04-28 Fighting in ice hockey — Promoted on 2007-05-07; on Main Page on 2007-07-19 Dominik Hasek — Promoted on 2007-05-25 Good articles Calgary Hitmen Colorado Avalanche National Hockey League Joe Sakic Nottingham Panthers Stanley Cup Traditions and anecdotes associated with the Stanley Cup Ray Emery The French Connection (hockey) Featured lists List of ice hockey teams in Alberta List of ice hockey teams in Saskatchewan Frölunda HC seasons List of Colorado Avalanche players List of family relations in the National Hockey League List of New Jersey Devils players List of New Jersey Devils head coaches List of drafted Frölunda HC players Notes Article Improvement By Maxim Upon some discussion on the WikiProject talk page, the Article Improvement Drive page was revamped by Krm500 and Maxim. It was renamed Wikipedia:WikiProject Ice Hockey/Article Improvement, and it includes two section. The first section is called articles in dire need of improvement. It list articles, usually important, that are in very poor shape. The second section is called requested help. Users list an article they request help improving a certain article, which will facilitate collaboration, which is the aim of any WikiProject. There is one article currently listed there, Henrik Lundqvist, here. The goal is to at least get it to Good article status. Diacritics By Maxim In the past few weeks, there has been quite heated discussion about the use of diacritics in article name. The current guideline is using diacritics in the pages of articles of all player names which require them, but redirects are exempt. Task forces By Maxim There have been two new task forces started within the WikiProject to coordinate major topics. Sweden Ice Hockey task force This task force was initiated by Krm500. Its current goal is to improve Henrik Lundqvist to Good or Featured article status. It covers all Swedish clubs, leagues and competitions and associated articles, players and coaches that are Swedish, or have played/coached for a Swedish club, and arenas in Sweden. They plan to eventually operate as a sort of a sub-project, which will have its own articles for creation, ranking importance and quality of articles, and co-ordinate article improvement. Its current members are Krm500, Bamsefar75, and CLAES. New Jersey Devils task force This task force was initiated by Bsroiaadn. Its goal is to improve New Jersey Devils to Featured Topic status. Although it currently meets the required article count, the task force wishes to improve it further. Its area of coverage is very similar to the Sweden Ice Hockey task force. Its members are Bsroiaadn, JHMM13, FutureNJGov, Sportskido8, Michael Greiner, JRWalko, and Soxrock. Requested Images By Maxim After discussion on the WikiProject talk page, Serte created a page for Requested Images. The page encourages users to license images for use on articles. The page also has section to request images for players, arenas, game situations, miscellaneous, and team and league logos. The page has been quite popular; since it was created on July 21, there have been six completed requests. There are four currently outstanding requests: Patrik Eliáš — Photo of player, requested by Bsroiaadn Scott Stevens — Photo of player, requested by Bsroiaadn Daniel Alfredsson — Photo of player, requested by Maxim Hart Trophy — Photo of the original Hart Trophy (retired in 1960), requested by Scorpion0422 Article assessement completed By Maxim On July 12, Kaiser matias announced that he had completed assessing all the articles with a {{ice hockey}} tag, sorting them into Category:Unassessed Ice Hockey articles. Kaiser matias has ranked about 9000 articles in that category, and most were stubs, and "have no information at all", according to him. Everybody is encouraged to expand the stubs into real articles. This effort took around 5 months. A big thanks goes to Kaiser matias from me and all the project.

Featured Topic Drive By Maxim Started by User:Scorpion0422, the aim of this drive is to make NHL awards a featured topic. A featured topic is basically a set of very high quality articles (good articles and featured articles/lists). In this case, the topic is NHL awards. Many users have helped, including Scorpion0422, Resolute, Serte, Hasek is the best, Maxim, Croat Canuck, Spike Wilbury, FutureNJGov, and T Rex/Dinosaur puppy. The progress has been very good; there are 12 featured lists promoted, and 2 good articles: Hart Memorial Trophy (Scorpion) James Norris Memorial Trophy (Scorpion) Vezina Trophy (Scorpion) Conn Smythe Trophy (Serte) Frank J.

Although it's closer to being done than not, there's still work to be done. The next topic that might be tackled is Stanley Cup, but this remains purely speculative and in discussion.

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:CYLW logo.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:CYLW logo.JPG. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 12:40, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use Image:BrewerCanada.JPG

Replaceable fair use

Thanks for uploading Image:BrewerCanada.JPG. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, fair use media which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if not used in an article), per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast (talk) 14:54, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Your signature...

Could you please remove the flag from your signature, or if you are adding it manually each time, stop doing it? Images are not to be used in signatures, as explained here. Thanks. J Milburn (talk) 12:41, 26 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Template:BCHL Team

A tag has been placed on Template:BCHL Team requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template. After seven days, if it is still unused and the speedy deletion tag has not been removed, the template will be deleted.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

Thanks. --MZMcBride (talk) 20:38, 21 February 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter

WikiProject Ice Hockey Newsletter Dear Nurmsook! You are receiving as you are a member of WikiProject Ice Hockey There's been many more new things going on at WP:HOCKEY; this newsletter will be sent every two weeks/months. If you wish to not receive the newsletter, please remove your name from the newsletter mailing list. Thanks! New recognized content By The Pancake of Heaven! There has been numerous new recognized content, so much that it's too time-consuming to sift through the "trophy cases" on WP:HOCKEY. Some interesting achievements: 2016 NHL Draft has been newly created and has immediately become a GA status article. The Vancouver Canucks task force has become active again, thanks to Canuckian89! J.D. Watt has been declined at WP:AFD. Drafts related to the OHL have been published! Task forces By The Pancake of Heaven! We are working to create a new task force within the WikiProject to deal with topics related to the Pittsburgh Penguins. It hasn't been created yet; but it aims to expand articles based on former and current Pittsburgh Penguins players and articles. Good luck! New Administrators Currently 0 promoted admins! Be the first one at WP:RFA. Featured Topic Drive By Maxim The original featured topic drive, initiated by Scorpion0422, has concluded succesfully. National Hockey League awards is now a featured topic, with 24 articles in total. Of them, 20 are featured lists, one is a featured article, and the other three are trophy articles that were too short to become featured lists. Eight users signed up to help out, shown here. The next Featured Topic hasn't been decided upon, and the ideas and organization for it fell apart. If you have any ideas, don't hesitate to share them at WT:HOCKEY. Notes More editors are needed to help out with the newsletter. The newsletter creator doesn't have an infinite nor perfect supply of ideas, and thus he might omit some interesting news. Portal:Ice hockey is being considered for featured status. Should Chris Pronger have been suspended for more than eight games for stomping on Ryan Kesler? Vote here! Help Patrik Stefan -- one of the greatest NHL draft busts -- become a GA status article.

Trevor Linden

So Maxim and I have recently decided we are going to finish up the Linden article and go for FA status before the end of the month. Figured as the creater of the Canucks taskforce, you'd be interested in taking part. If so, take a look at the talk page. Kaiser matias (talk) 23:01, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

To keep you updated, I'm looking to nominate the article probably sometime Tuesday night. Any work you wanted to add to it would be great to have. Kaiser matias (talk) 21:18, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

FLC of List of Vancouver Canucks players

There are outstanding comments at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of Vancouver Canucks players which you nominated that need to be addressed. If they are left outstanding, it is likely that the nomination will fail. If you are still interested in helping to make the list Featured, please visit the nomination page again.

Eric Brewer (ice hockey)

I made some copy edit changes in Eric Brewer (ice hockey). Please feel free to revert them. If you would like I can continue to copy edit the article as that is the sort of thing I do. Let me know if you want me to continue. Best, –Mattisse (Talk) 22:31, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

–

– is required by FAC rules for scores. The reason is so that a score will not be separated at a line break. Your article will not pass without that. That is one of the FAC buggaboos. –Mattisse (Talk) 02:12, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Incorrect changes

Hi, Nurmsook; I've edit conflicted a couple of times with you as I attempted to correct faulty dashes which have been introduced into the article since User:Epbr123's runthrough, where everything was correct. The new changes have used endashes where hyphens are called for, and you are switching correct endashes to html endashes, which isn't necessary. You can either revert back to Epbr123's version, or you could ask him to re-do it all, but the new changes (replacing hyphens with endashes) are incorrect, and the changes of hard-coded endashes to html endashes aren't necessary. Regards, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:29, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Actually, looking closer, the faulty endashes pre-date Epbr's run through, and he only did AWB changes. Since there are quite a few errors, you might just want to ask Epbr123 to run through and fix them all. There are dashes all over the place that should be hyphens. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 02:33, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

I suggest you do whatever SandyGeorgia suggests as she is the queen bee and whatever she says goes. I will help you out in any way I can but she rules so do what she says. Sincerely, –Mattisse (Talk) 02:52, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
