  • ... that the certification mark Product of Canada may be used for a good if at least 98% of all direct costs to create it are incurred in Canada? Source: "The Competition Bureau requires that at least 98 per cent of a good’s total direct costs of production or manufacturing are incurred in Canada before that good can be legally advertised as a "Product of Canada."" (Made in Canada or Product of Canada? There's a difference)

Moved to mainspace by Mindmatrix (talk). Self-nominated at 22:55, 19 December 2020 (UTC).[reply]

This is only a comment but I'm not sure if ALT2 or ALT3 can be passed; from what I remember there's an (unofficial) guideline on DYK that mentioning people who don't have articles in hooks is to be avoided unless necessary. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:33, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mindmatrix:, I am willing to do the full review, but the introduction needs work. It is far too short to summarize the main points of the article. Could you please expand? Flibirigit (talk) 03:24, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Additional ping to @Reidgreg: for the above statement. Flibirigit (talk) 03:42, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Flibirigit and Mindmatrix: I fleshed it out a bit and tried to include the essential facts. Two paragraphs is about right per WP:LEADLENGTH. – Reidgreg (talk) 13:36, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article was moved to the mainspace on December 19 and nominated the same day. Length and sourcing are adequate. Article is neutral in tone. No plagiarism issues were found. The concerns highlighted by the Earwig tool were directed quotes and proper names, neither of which are plagiarism. All four of the proposed hooks are interesting, and all are properly mentioned in the article and verified by the source. Also, I feel that mentioning the journalist by name is not a violation of WP:BLPNAME since the attribution of the documentary is required and helps the understanding of the subject. No images are currently used in this article. QPQ requirement has been completed. Flibirigit (talk) 16:07, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the thorough review! I'm okay with any of the hooks. BTW, I took a look for sources on Frédéric Choinière and found a few pieces on his works (Ma vie Made in Canada is the most prominent in English media) but did not find any RSS focusing on the man himself, so I don't think a biography article would pass WP:GNG. – Reidgreg (talk) 12:35, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 20 December 2020

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: Not moved. Rough consensus the article is WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and follows a similar name as other country labels. (non-admin closure) Vpab15 (talk) 16:57, 6 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]



Made in CanadaMade in Canada label – This article is not broadly about "things made in Canada" (which I would say is the primary topic of "Made in Canada") but about voluntary country-of-origin product labels/claims and the regulations concerning them. The labels themselves do not have a proper name, they appear in different forms and language, and are not themselves simply called "Made in Canada". I feel that the article should be moved to Made in Canada label or alternatively to Made in Canada (label) with a disambiguation page placed at primary per WP:TWODABS. (There presently being a GA at Made in Canada (TV series).) – Reidgreg (talk) 17:23, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Further notes: On December 19, this article was moved to primary in place of a good article which was moved to Made in Canada (TV series). Brief discussion at Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board § Usurping a plain title (with no notice on the GA's talk page) held that the label was primary topic. While I feel that the label is more well-known, it isn't quite the natural name of the subject, and I suspect traffic would be in favour of the TV series. A pageview comparison with the parent articles Country of origin and Consumer Packaging and Labeling Act (and with Made in USA) gives an idea of what they might be for the Canadian label article (keep in mind that Country of origin is a global subject and that Canada has about 12% the population as the US). (Incidentally, Made in USA was formerly located at Made in USA label, though I was unable to find a move discussion.) The next-most popular wordings that appear on such labels are Product of Canada (a redirect), Fabriqué au Canada, and Produit du Canada. I feel that there's a case to move the TV series back to primary, since that is its actual proper name (unlike the generic labels), though I'd be okay with a disambiguation page placed at primary. That would give the new article a chance to establish its scope and provide fair traffic statistics for possible future discussions. – Reidgreg (talk) 17:23, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Note: Made in USA was only briefly located at Made in USA label to fix the editing history of Made in USA (Sonic Youth album) or Made in USA. A history merge was performed to fix it by User:Graham87 in May 2018. See Public logs for Made in USA. You can see in the original version of {{COO}} from 2015 that the link is to "Made in USA" (see this version), not "Made in USA label". Mindmatrix 22:43, 20 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
