Hi Shawn,
The Norman McLaren navbox looks great! Using a smaller font size for the parentheticals makes sense to me. I would, however, remove the co-directors; navboxes should only link to articles that are within the scope of the main article. Navboxes should also be transcluded on all linked articles, and I don't think that the Norman McLaren navbox should be transcluded on either of the co-director articles.
Happy editing,

Thank you for your interest. I started creating these articles and then someone noted that I should have some sort of link so I began including the coordinates for where I found the article on google maps (IE Villages, Roads etc.) That seemed to have been enough until now. The template I took is originally from another article in New Brunswick so I didn't see a problem until now. I have been persistent to include links to other Wikipedia articles for reliable sources. I don't know what else to do. Myself I am just looking on Google maps for most of my information and details.Hogie75 10:54, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Shawn in Montreal,
I'm part of a team that is researching ways to help Wikipedia editors find interesting content to contribute to Wikipedia. More specifically, we are investigating whether content from news sources can be used to enhance Wikipedia editing. We have created a tool, called wikiFeed, that allows you to specify Twitter and/or RSS feeds from news sources that are interesting to you. wikiFeed then helps you make connections between those feeds and Wikipedia articles. We believe that using this tool may be a lot of fun, and may help you come up with some ideas on how to contribute to Wikipedia in ways that interest you. Please participate! To do so, complete this survey and follow this link to our website. Once you're there, click the "create an account" link to get started.
For more information about wikiFeed, visit our project page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask via my talk page, or by email at wikifeedcc@gmail.com. We appreciate your time and hope you enjoy playing with wikiFeed!
Thanks! RachulAdmas ( talk) 21:38, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
It's interesting that you noted the issues with building styles in the Thomas Fuller (architect) article on its talk page. In many articles about Canadian architects, I noticed such inaccuracies emerged when one user ( Victoriaedwards) converted the basic vertical lists of works (in order of completion) into horizontal galleries, then vertical lists in a chart format. I've spent a lot of time overhauling these lists, but I haven't been able to get them all done. No one is perfect and this user has made countless good contributions, but she seemed to create a lot of these charts with obvious errors that could have been avoided by looking at the photos of the buildings and individual building articles. Even the "builder" chart heading is problematic, since architects don't necessarily construct the buildings they design. A.Roz ( talk) 23:48, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
LOL Hi, Shawn. I am delighted to have your attention to the Category:Sexuality pages. They are very highly read, but only scantly edited.
Nonetheless, you took a page ( Michael C. Seto) from my sandbox where I was working on it, and pasted it into the main encyclopedia.
I was very close to done, so there isn't much damage done, but I thought I should point this out to you. I included the no-index tag atop the page, but I rarely create new pages, and if there was something else I was supposed to do in order to isolate the page until it was completed, I'm not sure what that is.
— James Cantor ( talk) 03:50, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for editing the page. I see now that I tend to add way to much information, which I admit is challenging not to do. I never saw it as a bad thing before, but now I see how it can be read as a "sales" point or something. I tend to want to make the article more interesting than what it really needs to be.

Hello Shawn, I see that you provided useful supplemental information on the genetics reference that I posted on the article at issue, which I had lifted from a related article.
There is a group of people that seem intent on fostering believability in these false doctrines, and the genetics reference has been removed again.
I have posted another genetics reference on the Talk page, and will be supplementing that later, as I have now finished reading it.
What I'm interested in doing is generating ideas as to how to frame the genetics sources in a manner that is consistent with Wiki policy, as the opponents are making seemingly ludicrous claims that the references are inapplicable.-- Ubikwit ( talk) 09:09, 26 November 2012 (UTC)Ubikwit

Hi Shawn, happy 2013! Thank you for your message re Lady Meredith House. I must admit, I would have felt better had you messaged me before changing the picture again (this surely perpetuates a 'war' does it not?!) to say something along the lines of 'we notice you are very keen on the picture you originally posted', and then followed that with 'we prefer the better quality image and feel it ought to be changed, please state your case' etc.
My feeling is that it is a picture that was not rejected for poor quality when it was uploaded and therefore it ought not to be treated any differently to any of it's counterparts. The opening photograph of Ravenscrag in the GSM article hardly accentuates the house and it;'s masonry - but it is nostalgic, and that is the same feeling I was trying to convey with my choice of picture, rather than the stark stack of bricks on tarmac.
I fully appreciate that if this was the only photgraphic reference/image of the house on wikipedia, and it did not have it's own article, then my case would carry little weight. But, the other editor in question created it's own page. Yes, I edited the words on this article as much of the original information was incorrect, but no, I did not dream to alter the picture he/she had chosen as I would view it as only polite that the pictures available on wiki commons remain the personal choice of the creator. Of course wikipedia is free to be edited by all and anyone, but surely the focus is on the written/factual content, rather than conflicting personal artistic tastes?
I admit that I was remiss in not starting the caption below the original picture with a direct link to 'Lady Meredith House'. In my mind, I would have thought it common sense that if the reader of the GSM article was interested by the house and yet disappointed by the quality of the picture chosen in that article; with one obvious click below, they would be taken straight to the other editors specific article on the house with as many close up, detailed, quality pictures as they like - surely leaving the reader satisfied?
I am fully aware and in absolute support of wikipedia's ethos: No one person or group 'owns' the article. Our disagreement is not over expert opinion on the subject matter such as a date, name, or philosophy; this is merely one picture that was deemed acceptable to be uploaded and is independent to others on it's own subject page.
I look forward to your and/or the other editors feedback. Best wishes, Parsica ( talk) 22:54, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

I have seen this for some towns in Canada and The United states. I am not talking about full categories of Buildings and Structures categories..etc. Just a place to put people who live there maybe. Also Why the speedy deletion, I am not the only one who has done this for towns in New Brunswick. Steam5 has even made some, IE: Shediac, New Brunswick Category.

Hello!
I notice you've purged all content from my little stub on Bill Lishman's underground house. The reason why I want to keep this page separate from the main Bill Lishman article is that there would certainly be some people interested in this particular project in a way different from other Lishman's initiatives. (There are monographs written on such original individualized buildings, often with fantastic designs, which exist all over the world.) The stub can hopefully eventually be expanded into a full-fledged article with appropriate material. If you kill this baby in its craddle, none of that will happen. Hope you understand. Cheers!

Hi Shawn in Montreal,
Thanks for your review of the SOTI Inc. page I've created.
I have tried to keep the content very factual and non-promotional, as my goal is not to create an advertisement on Wikipedia, but instead a basic company page. Could you let me know what you saw as advertorial? I will revise it immediately.
Today (7/9), I edited the content to remove what another user pointed out may sound promotional. I hope this assists keeping the page up.
I have tried following the same format as similar companies on the site:
MobileIron and
AirWatch.
Regarding significant articles, I want to provide the below coverage of SOTI from well respected journalists and publications. These articles are not reprinted press releases, and have editors tied to them.
The references in the page itself are not reprints of a press release. The InformationWeek piece is authored by a well respected journalist: Larry Seltzer
In addition, SOTI was the top scorer in a Network World review of Mobile Device Management vendors, available here: Network World - Top tools for BYOD management
I'd like to provide additional editorial features on the company and its solutions:
InformationWeek Education - Smartphones Hit Schools, MDM Vendors Don Thinking Caps
CMSwire - SOTI Releases MobiControl V10 to Manage Personal Devices in the Enterprise
eWeek - Soti Unveils MDM Platform MobiControl V10
Mobile Fanpage - Italian review of SOTI solution
Computing Canada - Last Year, We All Talked About a BYOD Problem, It's Time That We Acknowledge That Our Biggest Mobile Problems Are Now Under Control
InformationWeek BYTE - BYOD Tablets, Smartphones: About To 'Disrupt' The Classroom?
THE Journal - Westbury School District Deploys Mobile Device Management System
As time goes on, I'd like to expand the page to include more products, awards won, and additional information- but I wanted to start with a simple upload first.
I'd appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you!

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Anibar International Animation Festival 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/Anibar International Animation Festival (3rd nomination) 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 template from the top of the article. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 20:21, 22 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Shawn,
The Norman McLaren navbox looks great! Using a smaller font size for the parentheticals makes sense to me. I would, however, remove the co-directors; navboxes should only link to articles that are within the scope of the main article. Navboxes should also be transcluded on all linked articles, and I don't think that the Norman McLaren navbox should be transcluded on either of the co-director articles.
Happy editing,

Thank you for your interest. I started creating these articles and then someone noted that I should have some sort of link so I began including the coordinates for where I found the article on google maps (IE Villages, Roads etc.) That seemed to have been enough until now. The template I took is originally from another article in New Brunswick so I didn't see a problem until now. I have been persistent to include links to other Wikipedia articles for reliable sources. I don't know what else to do. Myself I am just looking on Google maps for most of my information and details.Hogie75 10:54, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Shawn in Montreal,
I'm part of a team that is researching ways to help Wikipedia editors find interesting content to contribute to Wikipedia. More specifically, we are investigating whether content from news sources can be used to enhance Wikipedia editing. We have created a tool, called wikiFeed, that allows you to specify Twitter and/or RSS feeds from news sources that are interesting to you. wikiFeed then helps you make connections between those feeds and Wikipedia articles. We believe that using this tool may be a lot of fun, and may help you come up with some ideas on how to contribute to Wikipedia in ways that interest you. Please participate! To do so, complete this survey and follow this link to our website. Once you're there, click the "create an account" link to get started.
For more information about wikiFeed, visit our project page. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask via my talk page, or by email at wikifeedcc@gmail.com. We appreciate your time and hope you enjoy playing with wikiFeed!
Thanks! RachulAdmas ( talk) 21:38, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
It's interesting that you noted the issues with building styles in the Thomas Fuller (architect) article on its talk page. In many articles about Canadian architects, I noticed such inaccuracies emerged when one user ( Victoriaedwards) converted the basic vertical lists of works (in order of completion) into horizontal galleries, then vertical lists in a chart format. I've spent a lot of time overhauling these lists, but I haven't been able to get them all done. No one is perfect and this user has made countless good contributions, but she seemed to create a lot of these charts with obvious errors that could have been avoided by looking at the photos of the buildings and individual building articles. Even the "builder" chart heading is problematic, since architects don't necessarily construct the buildings they design. A.Roz ( talk) 23:48, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
LOL Hi, Shawn. I am delighted to have your attention to the Category:Sexuality pages. They are very highly read, but only scantly edited.
Nonetheless, you took a page ( Michael C. Seto) from my sandbox where I was working on it, and pasted it into the main encyclopedia.
I was very close to done, so there isn't much damage done, but I thought I should point this out to you. I included the no-index tag atop the page, but I rarely create new pages, and if there was something else I was supposed to do in order to isolate the page until it was completed, I'm not sure what that is.
— James Cantor ( talk) 03:50, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for editing the page. I see now that I tend to add way to much information, which I admit is challenging not to do. I never saw it as a bad thing before, but now I see how it can be read as a "sales" point or something. I tend to want to make the article more interesting than what it really needs to be.

Hello Shawn, I see that you provided useful supplemental information on the genetics reference that I posted on the article at issue, which I had lifted from a related article.
There is a group of people that seem intent on fostering believability in these false doctrines, and the genetics reference has been removed again.
I have posted another genetics reference on the Talk page, and will be supplementing that later, as I have now finished reading it.
What I'm interested in doing is generating ideas as to how to frame the genetics sources in a manner that is consistent with Wiki policy, as the opponents are making seemingly ludicrous claims that the references are inapplicable.-- Ubikwit ( talk) 09:09, 26 November 2012 (UTC)Ubikwit

Hi Shawn, happy 2013! Thank you for your message re Lady Meredith House. I must admit, I would have felt better had you messaged me before changing the picture again (this surely perpetuates a 'war' does it not?!) to say something along the lines of 'we notice you are very keen on the picture you originally posted', and then followed that with 'we prefer the better quality image and feel it ought to be changed, please state your case' etc.
My feeling is that it is a picture that was not rejected for poor quality when it was uploaded and therefore it ought not to be treated any differently to any of it's counterparts. The opening photograph of Ravenscrag in the GSM article hardly accentuates the house and it;'s masonry - but it is nostalgic, and that is the same feeling I was trying to convey with my choice of picture, rather than the stark stack of bricks on tarmac.
I fully appreciate that if this was the only photgraphic reference/image of the house on wikipedia, and it did not have it's own article, then my case would carry little weight. But, the other editor in question created it's own page. Yes, I edited the words on this article as much of the original information was incorrect, but no, I did not dream to alter the picture he/she had chosen as I would view it as only polite that the pictures available on wiki commons remain the personal choice of the creator. Of course wikipedia is free to be edited by all and anyone, but surely the focus is on the written/factual content, rather than conflicting personal artistic tastes?
I admit that I was remiss in not starting the caption below the original picture with a direct link to 'Lady Meredith House'. In my mind, I would have thought it common sense that if the reader of the GSM article was interested by the house and yet disappointed by the quality of the picture chosen in that article; with one obvious click below, they would be taken straight to the other editors specific article on the house with as many close up, detailed, quality pictures as they like - surely leaving the reader satisfied?
I am fully aware and in absolute support of wikipedia's ethos: No one person or group 'owns' the article. Our disagreement is not over expert opinion on the subject matter such as a date, name, or philosophy; this is merely one picture that was deemed acceptable to be uploaded and is independent to others on it's own subject page.
I look forward to your and/or the other editors feedback. Best wishes, Parsica ( talk) 22:54, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

I have seen this for some towns in Canada and The United states. I am not talking about full categories of Buildings and Structures categories..etc. Just a place to put people who live there maybe.

Hello!
I notice you've purged all content from my little stub on Bill Lishman's underground house. The reason why I want to keep this page separate from the main Bill Lishman article is that there would certainly be some people interested in this particular project in a way different from other Lishman's initiatives. (There are monographs written on such original individualized buildings, often with fantastic designs, which exist all over the world.) The stub can hopefully eventually be expanded into a full-fledged article with appropriate material. If you kill this baby in its craddle, none of that will happen. Hope you understand. Cheers!

Hi Shawn in Montreal,
Thanks for your review of the SOTI Inc. page I've created.
I have tried to keep the content very factual and non-promotional, as my goal is not to create an advertisement on Wikipedia, but instead a basic company page. Could you let me know what you saw as advertorial? I will revise it immediately.
Today (7/9), I edited the content to remove what another user pointed out may sound promotional. I hope this assists keeping the page up.
I have tried following the same format as similar companies on the site:
MobileIron and
AirWatch.
Regarding significant articles, I want to provide the below coverage of SOTI from well respected journalists and publications. These articles are not reprinted press releases, and have editors tied to them.
The references in the page itself are not reprints of a press release. The InformationWeek piece is authored by a well respected journalist: Larry Seltzer
In addition, SOTI was the top scorer in a Network World review of Mobile Device Management vendors, available here: Network World - Top tools for BYOD management
I'd like to provide additional editorial features on the company and its solutions:
InformationWeek Education - Smartphones Hit Schools, MDM Vendors Don Thinking Caps
CMSwire - SOTI Releases MobiControl V10 to Manage Personal Devices in the Enterprise
eWeek - Soti Unveils MDM Platform MobiControl V10
Mobile Fanpage - Italian review of SOTI solution
Computing Canada - Last Year, We All Talked About a BYOD Problem, It's Time That We Acknowledge That Our Biggest Mobile Problems Are Now Under Control
InformationWeek BYTE - BYOD Tablets, Smartphones: About To 'Disrupt' The Classroom?
THE Journal - Westbury School District Deploys Mobile Device Management System
As time goes on, I'd like to expand the page to include more products, awards won, and additional information- but I wanted to start with a simple upload first.
I'd appreciate any help you can provide. Thank you!

But I'm going back to retirement today but this time completely and will exerce my right to vanish. There will probably be other sock-puppetry attempts by Bull-Doser in the future and I won't be around to see. If you have the time do regularly check pages such as CKMF-FM and if you see any suspicious activity, do not hesitate to report the socks to SPI. Take care. Farine ( talk) 13:16, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
Sorry, I'll wait longer next time for the cat to be created before removing. Beyond My Ken ( talk) 19:26, 27 August 2013 (UTC)
