The List of Nova Scotia General Assemblies had an extra 1981 session in it. I've removed some of the questionable session numbers from the page, but I can't see what happened in the list because there are only 59 sessions listed. Maybe there was another election in there with an assembly (possibly during WWI or WWII)?
I've removed the questionable session numbering where I can't find a source online. Your 52nd General Assembly of Nova Scotia was one of these. I think it should be renamed as the 53rd session.

  • Hey! Yeah I was confused about these myself at one point - My source The Legislative Assembly of Nova Scotia, 1758-1983 : a biographical directory by Shirley B. Elliott - it was published originally in the 1950s, originally compiled by the Nova Scotia Archives and then updated again in the 1980s. It should be available at all major libraries both public and university. That is the authoritative source on who sat in the legislature and also when they were held. --Disasternat 17:16, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Raymond M 03reduced.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Raymond M 03reduced.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Hekerui (talk) 21:29, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
