| ==Adminship== | |||
| Blue: Thank you for supporting my nomination for adminship. I am honoured that you and others think highly enough of my contributions here to support the nomination. The admin powers will enable me to patrol for vandals more effectively, amongst other things. I promise to use my new powers for ], and not to inflict the retribution on ] that they so richly deserve, as tempting as that may be. ;-) Thanks again, Kevin. ] 12:46, 22 August 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ==Bringing Misplaced Pages to Toronto== | |||
| I've been working on a bid to bring Wikimania 2006 to Toronto. I have contacted , an institute at the University of Toronto. They are very interested in partnering with us, and can get us a full range of U of T facilities for free. With this offer I think there is a very good chance of bringing Wikimania 2006 to Toronto. The only thing we currently lack are people willing to help out. I'm willing to do much of the work, but for the time being I am in Ottawa and having some people on the ground in Toronto will be necessary. We also need a number of people willing to assist at the actual event, likely the first weekend of August 2006. If you are interested in helping out sign up at ]. Preliminary bids from various cities need to be made by Sept. 30, 2005, at which point a committee will choose which city gets to host the event. The number of people willing to help will certainly be an important consideration. - ] 16:24, September 6, 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ==Welcome to the Wikimania Toronto team== | |||
| Glad to see more support for our bid! -- ] | |||
| ==Middle school renomination== | |||
| hello can you please look at ] it is being voted on again this time because ] added two dozen schools to be erased and maybe he did not see we already talked about this one ] 20:46, 21 September 2005 (UTC) | |||
| ==Wikimania meeting tomorrow== | |||
| Hello, and thanks for signing up at ]. It that there will be a half hour meeting on the tomorrow October 2, at 20:00 UST (4:00 pm EST) to pick the 3 city shortlist. It would be great if you could attend. Also these are our last hours to ensure that our bid at ] is as good as it can be, so any improvements to it would also be useful. There are now four cities in the running, so tomorrow one is getting cut. - ] 20:49, 1 October 2005 (UTC) | |||

| == Nahnebahwequa == | |||
| Hi Double Blue, just a polite reminder of your offer to fix up this article on ] if it was kept.... ] 17:26, 26 October 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Thank you == | |||
| Thank you for your kind words and your welcome! I also thank you for telling me about the PBS special regarding the movement of Moai. I have been a long time user of Misplaced Pages and am very interested in contributing to this valuable project. Also nice to see a fellow Canadian (I am in Australia at the moment). I will read up on my rights and responsibilities over the next few days. There are many things I would like to add or help in editing. | |||
| Cheers! | |||

| == ToDo: Regional Municipality moves == | |||
| Hey, I saw your ] page, along with its list of Moves. I'm somewhat interested in the topic myself. The official name of most, if not all, regions is indeed the ''Regional Municipality of <area>''. I do not know why the articles were originally named in the ''<area> Regional Municipality, Ontario'' fashion, but it caught on, I suppose. | |||
| I would totally support a mass move of the pages to where they belong, and would help with the redirection efforts. While I do not believe that naming the articles just ''Regional Municipality of <area>'' would conflict with any other areas, I think that it'll be courteous and informative to add the ''Ontario'' at the end. | |||
| I am rather new to Misplaced Pages and I've no clue if there are any procedures necessary before initiating such an uprooting of articles (community discussion? Request for <...>?), but once the decision is done, I'm ready to help with the moving and link-fixing. | |||
| Oh, and thanks for voting '''keep''' on the ] article back in the day :) --] 06:05, 16 November 2005 (UTC) | |||
| == Looking for an honest opinion == | |||
| I'm working on the article ]. I created a timeline. It is nominated for deletions. I was wondering if you could give me your opinion of the subject either at ] or on my user talk page. Thank you. (p.s.: love the some of your categories, I stole you idea and put some on my user page.) --] 01:46, 22 November 2005 (UTC) | |||

| == Whipper Billy Watson == | |||
| Thanks for the note. I remember meeting Watson when I was very young - maybe six - and shaking his hand. I sort of miss the old days when wrestling was more wrestling and less fakery than it is today. He was a good guy. ]]] ] 00:51, 17 May 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ==South Gwillimbury== | |||
| Well, since you had info about the Georgina - North Gwillimbury merger, I figured I'd ask this: do you know about South Gwillimbury Township? I've seen it referenced to Simcoe County, but the only websites I find containing it are genealogy sites. <font color="#8b4513">]</font><font color="#ee8811">]</font> 19:17, 27 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
| :It may be that someone just plain got it wrong when creating the archive. I dunno - here's one (see #15, #16); here's one that's , though it appears to say '''Simcoe South''', ''Gwillimbury West'', so it should probably be discounted; and that does the same thing. That leaves the first reference as the only one that mentions South Gwillimbury Township. I searched the website, but found nothing. I suspect you're right, the place never existed. It just seems odd that they created East, West and North Gwillimbury Townships, but not South. <font color="#8b4513">]</font><font color="#ee8811">]</font> 00:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC) | |||
