Embrun, Ontario[edit]

Embrun, Ontario is an article that started out as a three-sentence stub and slowly grew. Back at the end of May, the Embrun, Ontario article was nominated for Featured Article, but it failed utterly (no wonder, there wasn't even any images or citations!). Since then, the Embrun, Ontario article has improved, and now many questionable facts are now cited and the article now has a couple images. Eventually, the article could be nominated for FaC sometime once it improves more.--FreshFruitsRule 16:39, 5 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Accuracy and documentation issues: Embrun is not a city; it's a community within a township. "Vassal community" is not an existing term in the English language. Document the population claim with actual sourced demographic data from a reputable statistical agency; as of today, even the municipal government of Russell Township still only claims a total population of 12,000 on its website, and the most recent statistical sources available from the federal government still only say that 6,000 of those live in Embrun; the source provided for this article's claim that 11,000+ people live in Embrun is a resident's personal website on Freewebs, with no indication provided of what their source is for that number. Wikipedia requires verifiable sources, which does not mean we can simply repeat any claim made by anybody on the web; sources have to be documented, verifiable and reputable, and a personal website with no source citations does not meet those criteria.
