| Hi, Full disclosure: i work at The Great Hall, it's one of the main historic city landmarks in Toronto, although its 130 years old landmark and one of the main pillars on queen west since 1889, it is still not part of the wikipedia resource. | |||

| We now have articles for every suburban mayor (ie Scarborough, North York, East York, York, and Etobicoke) from the 1967 amalgamation/reorganization of Metro to the final amalgamation of 1997. I'm wondering which, if any, pre-1967 reeves or mayors merit an article (see ] and also ], ]. ], ], and ] ). Before January 1, 1967 there was not only the ] of ], ], ], ], and ] but also the towns of ], ], ] and ]; the villages of ], ] and ]. I wrote an article on North York reeve ] since he was twice a candidate for Metro Chairman and there was a lot of information on him. Oliver Crockford of Scarborough also appears to be notable since he was the force behind the ] and Chris Tonks of York is notable because he was the focus of a major corruption scandal that made national news - and also remained in politics into the 1970s. This page on the reeves of mayors of Etobicoke has a little blurb on each reeve, William J. Gardhouse later became MPP for York West so he might be notable. | |||

| If many or most of these reeves and mayors are not notable in their own right I'm wondering if we can build up ] and the related pages about the townships so that there is at least a few sentences on each reeve or mayor on the page? ] (]) 14:20, 21 September 2020 (UTC) | |||

| Hello, I edit many Ontario-related articles and am a member of ]. I was working on the ] and felt that with the sheer number of Toronto-related articles on Misplaced Pages, it was justified as a scope for its own dedicated index, which I have created at ]. I welcome any comments or contributions, as despite my best efforts I doubt I will be able to find and add all of the hundreds of Toronto-related articles on here. I hope you may find it useful. I've certainly been enjoying the process of finding and reading the wide variety of articles about the city. ] (]) 19:14, 16 March 2021 (UTC) | |||

Proposed article for creation: Ford Family TreeHi there, I'm currently hashing out a family tree for the Ford family dynasty on one of my sandbox pages (the family tree template is not user friendly let's just say that) I was wondering if anyone who had more experience with this sort of thing could help work on it. It's here: User:CaffeinAddict/sandbox/2. CaffeinAddict (talk) 07:53, 16 January 2022 (UTC) User script to detect unreliable sourcesMain page: User:Headbomb/unreliableI have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Misplaced Pages. The idea is that it takes something like
and turns it into something like
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}. The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed. Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable. This is a one time notice and can't be unsubscribed from.
