I see on your user page that you like poutine. I must admit, I'm curious; I've never really seen the appeal in that food. Is it really that good? Melicans (talk, contributions) 07:35, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi Silk Tork. I just noticed that Pavement (one of my favorite groups) was up for review today, apparently too late to help out. I would love to take a stab at improvement after looking at your notes (Full disclosure: This would be my first GA effort). If you're open to it, I could give it a go. If I've missed the deadline on this one, no worries. The Interior(Talk) 00:08, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Hello. Yes, I believe that edit was done by the person in question. Some of his edits are not vandalism, simply are misleading and unexplained. Thank you. --BatteryIncluded (talk) 00:57, 7 December 2010 (UTC)
Tieleman's blog says in hits massthead:
I haven't looked up his byline on The Tyee but it probably says somethign similar. Andrew Coyne is a Conservative party member, and a known party mouthpiece; similarly the allegiance of CanWest reporters and CanWEst's own strong BC Liberal (and federal Tory....) affiliations are well-known and oft-criticized. Yet you don't see mentions of Coyne going "Conservative-affiliated columnist Andrew Coyne" or "Liberal-supporting CanWest reporter Smyth". My objection is the "tainting" of Tieleman's analysis by saying "oh, he's only an NDPer so of course he's going to say stuff like this". The BC Liberal COIer/SPA also points at my own political agenda (=democracy and truth, I'm not an NDPer, though a well-known anti-Liberal blogger) as if that excused his own. That username alone has COI problems, no?Skookum1 (talk) 00:04, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi The Interior. In answer to your query at the AfD, I poured through the available reilable source material and rewrote the Good Garage Scheme article. If you would be so kind, please feel free to change the article's rating on the article talk page from Start. Thanks. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 15:30, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi,
Went to the DYK section and saw there's a problem re: inventing the CRT. What I've just turned up in a quick look away from WP is that Allen DuMont invented an improved version of the CRT which was cheaper and longer-lasting than the German CRTs that were used at that time.
http://www.dumonthistory.tv/2.html
"DuMont developed the first long-lasting cathode ray tube, the basis of electronic television, and was first to offer a home television receiver to the public in 1939, exhibiting sets at the New York World's Fair that year. For these and other reasons, Allen B. DuMont has been referred to by many people as "The Father of Television.""
http://www.museum.tv/eotvsection.php?entrycode=DuMont
"developed an inexpensive cathode- ray tube that would last for thousands of hours (unlike the popular German import CRT, which lasted only 25 to 30 hours)"
I am willing to edit the Bruce DuMont page to clarify this with the refs and also to do the same for the Allen DuMont page. If this fixes things, just let me know and I'll edit both pages with the corrections and refs.
Thanks!

Fixed the citation issue. Thanks for your fast review of the hook! — Hunter Kahn 02:14, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
I have responded to your query on my DYK entry. Though it feels to me as though the x2 expansion rule only applies for BLPs that were originally completely(?) unsourced? --生け花 23:04, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
Sorry I was a little late responding. But it looks like you got everything cleared up. :) − Jhenderson 777 15:00, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

Some really nice and clear editing to improve the article A Child's Christmas in Wales. Diolch FruitMonkey (talk) 19:44, 20 December 2010 (UTC) |
![]() | On23 December 2010, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Neil Macdonald, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the CBC's senior correspondent Neil Macdonald is the brother of comedian Norm Macdonald? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi. I'm undoing your revert on the Deadwood (TV Series) page as the article is written, still currently being edited and viewable here: Deadwood (film). Is that OK? FilmFan2011 (talk) 23:30, 6 January 2011 (UTC)
On what date? -- Denelson83 16:13, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
Okay. I'm going to have to ask you some questions before I choose to come. First, your user page says you live in Metro Vancouver. I live over on Vancouver Island. Would you be willing to pick me up at the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal? -- Denelson83 19:44, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
