| Second, titles like ] are doubly redundant; neither the <code>/Electoral District/</code> nor the <code> (provincial electoral district)</code> contribute anything. They don't need to be disambiguated, and they are already sorted by categories. Does anyone have a problem if I get a bot to move them all to the style ]? I'll make sure that links all point to the right places when the articles themselves need the disambiguation. —] <small>(] • ])</small> 21:48, 6 October 2012 (UTC) | Second, titles like ] are doubly redundant; neither the <code>/Electoral District/</code> nor the <code> (provincial electoral district)</code> contribute anything.

How do I fix the links in the List of premiers of Saskatchewan?The article list of premiers of Saskatchewan uses a template. The 8th through 22nd Assemblies are red-lined, even though there are articles for those assemblies. How do I fix the references in the template so that those will link to the respective articles?Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 11:23, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
JosephHowe.jpgfile:JosephHowe.jpg has been nominated for deletion -- 76.65.131.248 (talk) 03:36, 19 September 2012 (UTC) Succession boxesWhy are some editors determined to list every office a politician has held in a succession box at the end of the article? This is why we have little, neat, collapsable navboxes. In order to list everyone that has held the position. Succession boxes are bigger, only link to two in the list, and repeat what is in the infobox. There is just no reason to have them. 117Avenue (talk) 03:56, 22 September 2012 (UTC) Personally folks, I've no problems with deleting succession boxes from all articles. However, we shouldn't be deleting them from only a small pocket of articles (example: Quebec premiers). GoodDay (talk) 04:03, 22 September 2012 (UTC) BTW, I've checked over the current & past premiers of the other provinces. We've got succession boxes for some, none for others; we've got major inconsistancy. GoodDay (talk) 04:36, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
Ontario Curling Tour eventsHello everyone - I would like to get your opinions about Category:Ontario Curling Tour events. I noticed that several of the articles about these events were created today, but in my opinion they don't meet notability guidelines. In fact, I was about to propose deletion of one of them (lacking indication and evidence of notability) until I realized that the author had created a set. Before I go on and prod all of them, I would like to know what the community thinks. Thanks in advance, PKT(alk) 22:14, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
{{MPLinksCA}}template:MPLinksCA has been proposed to be merged into template:CanParlbio -- 76.65.131.248 (talk) 00:57, 27 September 2012 (UTC) Gerald CaplanAn anonymous IP, with fewer than 20 edits in his/her entire history, tagged NDP organizer and academic Gerald Caplan for prod yesterday, with the reasoning that the article was mostly unreferenced. He's obviously notable and the article isn't entirely unreferenced, so I've removed the prod notice -- however, the article was created in 2005, and its referencing standard is quite clearly 2005 vintage (i.e. total sh*t). Since upgrading it to current standards may require some more specialized sources than I personally have access to, I wanted to ask if anybody's able to help in bringing it up to snuff. Bearcat (talk) 04:49, 2 October 2012 (UTC) Regional municipality categoriesThree sets of categories relating to regional municipalities in Ontario have nominated for renaming, at categories for discussion. The discussions are at:
Your comments are welcome at the CFD discussions. --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 20:25, 4 October 2012 (UTC) Riding election result templatesI have two comments regarding the tables about past riding election results (e.g. Template:Alberta provincial election, 2008/Electoral District/Calgary-Elbow). First, I put them all in one giant category (Category:Canada election result templates (complete list)) so that editors can use the "related changes" feature to make sure that no one is screwing with the numbers. I encourage you to check the related changes every month or two to see if anything has changed.
