W. J. Keith quote

I've restored the W. J. Keith quote that was deleted. It seems to help illustrate the differences of opinion mentioned in the "Criticism and Influence" section, and its source is cited, so I don't see how it could be considered not valid. Andrew Sly 22:14, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Siwash Rock

Siwash Rock is the subject of one of the best of Johnson's Legends of Vancouver collection of stories; the tale is about virtue, and about resolve on its behalf in the face of certain death and the implacable will of the divine. It never occurred to me before reading this article why it was that her monument was near it...or is it? I have it in my head that it's over by Brockton Point, which is on the opposite side of the park...just checked the Wiki page but it and other monuments in the park are not listed, and they're not listed on the Parks Board website page either; nor is there a map, or much in the way of history at that site....hmmmmm....I'll be back.Skookum1 07:37, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

Apparently it's at Ferguson Point somewhere, by the restaurant. She reqested to be buried within sight of the rock. Curiously, she also requested that no monument be erected in her honour.Bobanny 09:57, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Citation style

this article is currently undergoing reviews. The original writer used the author/date style, which I formatted according to Misplaced Pages conventions for Harvard referencing, and it conforms to the WP:MOS as it is. However, everyone, including me, seems to prefer the usual Chicago style, the one with footnotes at the bottom in a "references" section. Seems the smart thing might be to just change it, though it's a faux pas to do that to an existing style without a consensus on the talk page first. Any thoughts? Bobanny 00:37, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

Thinking again, Harvard style is also acceptable per WP:MOS. Personally, I do not adore it, but it is acceptable!--Yannismarou 15:48, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

GA Nomination

You're correct, however there are several references, see: the references. What are you getting at? →James Kidd (contr/talk/email) 22:41, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
Yup, I think changing the refs to footnotes is definately the way to go, not to make it more correct, but because that's what most people apparently prefer on Misplaced Pages (including me - see above comments). Thanks for the review, James. I still plan on addressing some content issues that were raised in a biography project peer review, and will eventually try for an fac, when I get a chance to go to the library and some extra time.

Good luck! Looks like you're on the right track →James Kidd (contr/talk/email) 06:19, 12 January 2007 (UTC)
