Hey Connormah, just wanted to let you know that I found confirmation that Bob Meyers is still alive, as I know that we have both been looking into that. I've also got a few hockey questions coming your way by email, if you have the time. Canadian Paul 19:19, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for finding the dates. I've been checking the possibly living for the past few days and have been taking some out that I know can't be alive. (Such as one person was listed who was in the 1920 Olympics and in WW1, another person who wrote a screenplay in 1923, and the funniest one-a guy who wrote a book in 1910!) Those are just a few. As well as moving some living people into there! I have found dates for some, but not for all. I also managed to move out everyone born before 1902 except 1 or 2 people (one was listed as missing so I just kept it there for now). So thanks again! (I could show more people that I found that could be alive or that I moved out recently!)
Wgolf (talk) 17:24, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Here are some that are under possibly living or year of death missing:
Benvenuto Nunes, R. B. Pearson, Jacques Maumont, Margaret Johnson (this is one odd one-apparently 2 people are mentioned in this article with the same name), Albert Ramsden, A. Miles Pratt, Ángel Rodríguez (boxer), Thomas Stanford (film editor), John W. Holmes (film editor).
There are quite a bit more-these are just a few!
Wgolf (talk) 19:02, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
Well I moved out a lot today-moved a few in as well. But yeah got a lot more. And I got rid of a few politicians that I know would not be alive as well. Well good luck! Wgolf (talk) 06:29, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

![]() | On 6 September 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Chief of Naval Research, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Bill Nye reacted excitedly when Chief of Naval Research Nevin Carr offered him an Office of Naval Research pocket protector? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Chief of Naval Research. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

Okay here: Owen Reynolds-had the classic "no yod listed so I'll just say he is alive even if he be 114 now!", Rembrandt McClintock, Sekiji Sasano, Jack Carey (dancer) (we have the DOD but no DOB) and Charlie Callander. Wgolf (talk) 03:26, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
I'm almost certain that this individual is the football player. The DOB works and our Valiquette was living in New York as early as 1940. Maybe this can help you confirm the information? Canadian Paul 13:30, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

In addition to the new image of mine that I uploaded of Paul Holmgren which I took at the presser on May 7, 2014 when he was named President of the Flyers and added to the infobox in his article, I have also uploaded another image of mine (of which the Holmgren image is a detail) of Holmgren, Ed Snider and Ron Hextall together at the same presser which I have added in appropriate places to the articles on Holmgren, Hextall, and the Philadelphia Flyers. Let me know if there are any other Flyer related images or other information you want added as I have been covering this team continuously for 45 years now.

A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Jcomarenalogo.svg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why it has been listed (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry). Feel free to add your opinion on the matter below the nomination.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Paul Kinsman requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Fiddle Faddle 14:29, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Paul Kinsman is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Kinsman until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Fiddle Faddle 17:06, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
Hi, and thank you for your interest in the article I worked on. Except I compared the segments you noted with the ones I contributed and for the life of me, I cannot find any difference.

My wife's family would like to thank you for adding Vaughn to the wiki as a distinguished member of the Signal Regiment. Jogershok (talk) 02:04, 5 October 2014 (UTC) |
Vaughn O. Lang passed away passed away Thursday evening, Oct. 2, 2014, at his home in Vienna, VA. He is to be buried next to his wife who preceeded him in death.[1]
A complete obituary will appear in the Altoona Mirror at a later date. Arrangements are by John C. Bolger Funeral Home Inc., Williamsburg, PA. [2] As it appears that you were the originator of this page, I thought you would want to know. He is also listed as a notable person from Williamsburg, Pennsylvania. He is my wife's cousin. Jogershok (talk) 01:43, 5 October 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for the acknowledgement. The full obit should appear tomorrow in the Altoona Mirror (www.altoonamirror.com) Jogershok (talk) 01:53, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Per WP:LINKROT and WP:CITEHOW, please format the citations in the many, many new stubs you have been creating for state legislators. For most of the Oregon ones, you may be able to simply copy the formatting I used in Tom Hanlon (politician), just changing the page number to the specific page in the source that corresponds to the subject of the Wikipedia article. (I did that one as an example, but I don't plan to take time to do the others.) Whether a source is available online or not, citations need to indicate publisher, date, page number (if there is one) and author (unless it's something like a state agency, as in this case) to satisfy WP:V.

Hi ... not a huge deal, and I defer to you on this, but I was wondering whether your change here didn't actually unintentionally change the tenor of the text in a way that less accurately reflected the ref. If she battled the illness, she may not have been suffering from it at any time. If she suffered from the illness, the implication is that she suffered from it IMHO. (e.g., if I battle with weight gain, I may have it from time to time, but if I have a weight problem, I have it at all moments). Best. --Epeefleche (talk) 06:16, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi there, I see you are also trying to fill in the missing gaps in Nova Scotia MLA articles. I'm glad I'm not the only one. I don't want to step on your shoes here, but I have been working on articles for Rollie Thornhill and Billy Joe MacLean for awhile now, and and have much more content and references and was hoping you wouldn't mind if I incorporated what I have been working on into the articles over time. I have been working on some others also, but if not, it's ok. I think you have pretty much filled in the rest of the gaps in missing articles, so if you think it's better that I shift my attention elsewhere to other articles, I can do this. Regardless, there are a few errors I'm going to fix before moving on. But again, thanks, creating all these articles has saved me some time. Cmr08 (talk) 19:32, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi again, one of the articles you added, Leonard L. Pace died in 1991. I know geneology and obituaries can't be used as references, but is there anyway that the article could be written to reflect he's not a living person, like Frank Bezanson's article does. Like I said, all I can find is this and his wifes obituary, but they do show that he is not a living person. Cmr08 (talk) 20:42, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Can't promise I'll be able to find it, but I'll take a look. And I missed the mention you made about Thornhill and MacLean, and I do know the issues you are referring to. There is plenty info available on both of them, as they had such long careers, and I have been working on them for awhile now. Cmr08 (talk) 22:24, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi, now I have to ask you the question. Where did you Layton Fergusson's death date? I've been trying to find that, but the best I could find was the year. Cmr08 (talk) 00:11, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Connormah, I just want to say again that I think this is really good that there's two of us doing these articles, because it would have taken me forever to get to some of the ones you did. Not having to create them is giving me more time to research them, so I know you will probably get to these names eventually, but a few that I have started to research are Jim MacLean (Inverness) aka Billy Joe's brother, Percy "Pinky" Gaum (Cape Breton Nova), and Edward "Ned" Manson (Cape Breton West). If you can create these articles, I should be able to add to them. By the way, I tackled the political career for Billy Joe MacLean last night. I tried to get all the details in with sources so that the scandal side of things was written in a neutral manner like it should be. Is it ok the way it's written? I would also like to tackle Rollie Thornhill, but there is so much info out there that I will have to do it bit-by-bit, or I would never get to some of the others. Cmr08 (talk) 20:38, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
Hi Connormah. As an administrator, you should know that everything on Wikipedia requires reliable sources that are verifiable. I've seen a lot of articles being created you that skirt dangerously close to WP:BLP issues because they lack appropriate references or make claims that are back up by material that could be construed as original research. If you have evidence that Snow was alive in 2009, please demonstrate it, don't just say "I did look into it and he was living by at least 2009".
You're also creating a lot of stubs that lack even the most basic BLP categorization (ie. the living people category), which is becoming somewhat frustrating, since those categories exist to increase the level of protection we are able to provide against vandalism on biographies of living people. Please keep this consideration in mind when you are starting new articles. Canadian Paul 22:47, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
Which article are you talking about? I only see the four Globe and Mail articles I added as references. You added one from the National Post, is that the one you mean? I don't have access to that paper, but I do have over 3,000 articles on my computer relating to politics in Nova Scotia from The Globe and Mail, and I'm sure there's something there relating to the Gaming Commission, I can take a look and see what's there.

Looks like whoever did this research screwed up, claiming that Blunt changed his name and died in 2001. There is a Leroy O. Blunt who died in 2001, but he was born on a different day and, obviously, could not have been the political patriarch, since the latter gave an interview in 2006 (unless the guy who gave the interview was lying about who he was, haha). Anyways, I thought I'd point that out in case someone tries to insert a 2001 DOD, you'll know why! Canadian Paul 22:13, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

You reverted my reversion of the medal table for Nail Yakupov, the division is necessary as the link for the first "Russia" points to Russia men's national junior ice hockey team, that participates in the IIHF World U20 Championship. However, the second "Russia" points to Russia men's national under-18 ice hockey team, that participates in the World Junior A Challenge and the IIHF World U18 Championship. A reader of the article would be misguided, were they to click on a singular Russia and assume that the same team participated in all three tournaments. In hockey circles, this is a necessary division much like the division between the Dallas Stars and Texas Stars teams are necessary. Yes, the player is likely under contract to Dallas, but he actually played for Texas. In this instance, Nail played for both the U20 and U18 and were he to medal with the Russia men's national ice hockey team, a third "Russia" should appear.

Thank you for uploading File:Bart Giamatti.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.
If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Diannaa (talk) 22:32, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing the Little Jimmy Dickens edits done by IP 70.190.229.97 to my attention at this AN/I . I have to say I am confused, however, as to why the report remains untouched. Is it because I did not include the right information or enough information in it? Could it be because it really isn't a big enough issue for anyone to be concerned with, or what, exactly? I asked Drmies for some advice regarding the report but he hasn't responded, and I really don't want to bother him about it again (if you read this Drmies because of the ping, please know I pinged you only because I mentioned you here, not because I'm trying to "poke" or get you to respond regarding the message I left on your talk page). So, if you have time, Connormah, I would appreciate some input as to why you think the report is being ignored. As you already noticed, the IP continues to edit by adding empty sections to articles as well as revert his preferred version of an article back in. His lack of heeding warnings on his talk page and communication is pretty frustrating as well. My guess is (by looking at what he's editing and the content he finds important for article inclusion) that he's a teenager or college student on Christmas break. Maybe the whole thing will no longer be a problem after students head back to school. In any case, what he's been doing has been pretty frustrating and seems disruptive, in my book. -- WV ● ✉ ✓ 00:02, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Connormah. You've helped me find DOB information in the past, so I thought I'd see if you might be able to help again. No rush at all (I see you are on vacation), but my sleuthing skills have hit a dead end with this one. John Turner was an All-American college basketball player at Louisville. According to this he died on May 5, 2013 in Newport, Kentucky at the age of 73. From this I know his middle initial is "W." But I can't come up with a DOB. Can you help?

Hi Connor, it's been some time since we ran into each other. Thanks for starting those article, I'll see later about adding more details on political career. As for the Fiske article, I thought I had that on my watch list, but I guess I didn't. I made a couple of touchups, but don't know what to think about the added content. The section added sounds like a tribute with that long quote about how honorable he was. What do you think? Also, I'll try and find a death date for Ned Manson, I can't recall how long ago he died, but I think it was sometime before 1990. Anyways, good to hear from you and thanks again for those articles.

Hi Connormah. I have no personal involvement in this, but as you can see, everybody else seems happy with a clear, easy-to-read, airy layout, with headings and separation of topics.
Stuffy, crowded layouts lead to one thing only: any non-academic reader (and those are 99% of the WP users) give up and go to a different source. I don't think you'd rather have the last word, but no readers for your work :-)
Reverse-editing is too silly, I won't go into that if you insist on reverting all I'm doing; I'm sure we can agree that the USER and his convenience is the only concern we should have. It's not about me or you. Nevertheless, I've been working with book publishers and the press for two decades now and am using what I've learned, I'm not making things up or having an ego trip.
Have a nice weekend.Arminden (talk) 06:21, 28 February 2015 (UTC)Arminden
Look, there are rules & regulations supporting anything. WP's are user-created, and are being improved constantly. All those abbreviated WP insider things are a crutch, not a weapon against common sense and rational thinking. What doesn't change is logic and human nature. Logic says: Nemtsov is a big topic in today's news, but not for long, not in the English WP for sure. The USER on the other hand, is a constant. One stays away from stuffy texts without breaks and spaces, systematic separation of topics etc. I don't give a damn about how many committees a politician is part of, but I want to know if he's with this or that large block. If I'm doing some research, then I'll take the time and read the rest as well - and will be grateful if things are structured and systematical. As it was, the material was one big stew, with politics thrown in one pot with academic work, publications, yellow-press comments ("young model") etc. If it's an encyclopedia, then let it be a good, useful, easy-to-read one. I hope I didn't get too much carried away. Take care, Arminden (talk) 06:34, 28 February 2015 (UTC)Arminden
... now you see what you got. The fuck-pal is back in in the lead ("23-year old") etc., as if anyone should care.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Charles H. Flummerfelt, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Delaware, New Jersey. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for starting all of those old-time CFL players too. It is appreciated. WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 05:16, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
Hi Connor, could you take a look at the article for Donald MacKeen Smith? I was going to make corrections as the article doesn't include his entire political career, just his last term, but didn't want to touch the reference you added. He also represented Halifax Centre from 1960 to 1967, so I thought it should say in the lead the years 1960 to 1970, but that would mean not mentioning the specific election that's already sourced in lead. I know I can't remove sources added by others, even when I'm providing new ones, so is there a way to add the rest of his career without stepping on other editors who have already edited the article with sources? Thanks. Cmr08 (talk) 09:42, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
Okay I was just putting the person data up for Del Thachuk and noticed you oddly have him as 1936 yet he is listed as 1930s births-where did you get the 1936? (actually 1935 would make more sense to go halfway between) But yeah was just wondering this. Wgolf (talk) 03:48, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for uploading File:Uottawacoa.svg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

Hey Connormah. Can you change the colors for File:UCO logo.svg? They colors have been updated to #FFcc00 (the yellow) & #003366 (the blue). Thanks. Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 12:10, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
Thanks Connor. Did you send it as an attachment or just pasted in mail? I was trying to save it but I can't figure how to do that. Cmr08 (talk) 05:50, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
I was looking at the Ottawa Senators (original) page and noticed that you uploaded the team logo seen in the infobox. Do you think you could do that for the Montreal Shamrocks? There is no logo for them on the page.Giantdevilfish (talk) 17:52, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
Hey Connormah. I was hoping you could change the colors for the File:SMU Mustang Logo.svg file? The colors, according to the SMU Marks page is now #C60C30. You can also get it from here, as well. Thanks in advance. Corky | Chat? 02:06, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

Hey Connormah, do you have any evidence that Aiden Maloney is still alive? Seems sensible to ask before I go around changing categories. Canadian Paul 20:08, 27 March 2015 (UTC)
Connormah, here's a taste of how the revamped infobox is going: Template:Infobox college football player/testcases#Joe Cool (typical example). What do you think of the colors, graphics, and layout and design? Pretty sharp, eh? Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 16:45, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

The article Leon Pense has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.
