Exposures erroneously called outbreaks throughout timeline.
This article needs some serious clean up. There are many instances of School exposures being referred to as outbreaks which is misinformation. There have been 526 exposures reported in BC schools so it does not make sense to report them all in the timeline. Unless the cited article states "outbreak" these should be removed from the article.--Davisrf (talk) 06:19, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Davisrf: Good point. The article does not appear to be locked. You're free to fix it. Walter Görlitz (talk) 06:41, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Walter Görlitz: The problems appear to be extensive and I am still learning conventions and etiquette here. I'll do my best. --Davisrf (talk) 07:16, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- @Davisrf: If you can make a list here of the numbered references that mention that a school outbreak occurred I might be able to help fix outbreak statements and remove exposure statements sometime after I wake up. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 🎄Happy Holidays!⛄ 08:32, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- I've made most of the corrections. More recent LTC outbreaks seem to be labeled exposures instead of outbreaks which is just as inaccurate. "Exposure" and "outbreak" have distinct meaning with specific definitions according to the BCCDC. With (sadly) over 100 LTC outbreaks declared in BC it probably does not make sense to report them all in this manner and only report on the most notable outbreaks. There is now a weekly report BCCDC on LTC outbreaks that could be cited for a section or table specifically about LTC outbreaks[1]

- There should probably be a shared standard on what justifies an entry as it can be somewhat inconsistent about what is included and what is not. For example, significant PHO orders are left out while speculation about potential orders have been included. I removed one such speculative entry that never was realized. Davisrf (talk) 23:23, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
- Actually, feel free to remove any exposure/outbreak related sectors. This was my fault because back in the day when I was trying to get familiar with the Wikitext markup and the environment of this article, I did not know what to add to the timeline, when it was severely gapped last year. Please forgive me. I admit that I was all over the place during my adaptation period prior to getting myself on track, as this Wiki-environment used to be something new to me. 70.66.59.163 (talk) 01:06, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
References
For the first week of September 2021...
According to all the trustable medias, there has been stories of the provincial anti-vax-passport protests in more than 10 cities throughout the province, and in my opinion, it is sort of a huge deal. Should we include the stories along with some related photo/video galleries? 🤔💭 70.66.59.163 (talk) 19:08, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- The protest on September 1 in Vancouver would be notable. That said, it would probably be better in a separate section from the timeline, such as §Social and economic impact. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 19:16, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- I don't know how, because uploading pictures/videos requires an account, let along me being autistic means it is hard for myself to summarize from the almost all the possible references... 70.66.59.163 (talk) 19:29, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
Need some "volunteers" for the Timeline
I am sorry. My grammar skill, regards constructing sentences, paragraphs, and essays, is really horrible. (re:Summarize) Let alone the timeline really needs constant updating (I think I mentioned it the other day last year, as a hidden comment, before the talk page), if necessary/possible (I really do not want to urge you all). Also, if there were any chances of posting some more related pictures, galleries or maybe some short videos, etc? And if this does not work out well, what if there's a possibility of migrating the entire timeline segment into a separate article, then claim an adequate protection to the article, thus you guys get to decide which stories make the cut?

The difference in scale between new cases and deaths(roughly 100 to 1) has made the death graph pretty much useless. I did not even notice its line at first and when I did notice it I could gather no information from it. Is it possible to use two different scales on the same graph? Or perhaps put death in a different graph? HighInBC Need help? Just ask. 02:04, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
- Are you talking about the graph for
Cumulative cases, deaths, recoveries, and active cases
? I asked over at Template talk:Graph:Chart to see if anything can be done. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:40, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
- I am referring to "New cases and deaths (weekly on Wednesdays from February 3, 2021, onwards)", though "Cumulative cases, deaths, recoveries, and active cases" has a similar issue. HighInBC Need help? Just ask. 08:17, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
