User talk:PKT/Archive 2016Thanks!Glad to see someone appreciates my photography contributions to the encyclopedia. I look out for things that haven't been photographed at all or were not photographed properly whenever I visit new places. In this case, I knew I would be going up the CN Tower so I focused on Toronto-based landmarks, noticed that Corus hadn't been photographed yet, and was careful to take lots of pictures of it when I was up there. This was back when I owned a prosumer camera with an amazing 22x zoom lens. Unfortunately it got an aberration on the right corner somehow. The aberration was noticeable only at 1x or 2x zoom but that means it messes up most regular photos, so I turned in the camera for recycling and upgraded to my first real SLR after the Toronto visit. --Coolcaesar (talk) 04:55, 11 January 2016 (UTC) Please give inputThanks Vaselineeeeeeee (talk) 01:30, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
Eccles Road railway stationHi, re this edit. All pages edited by Bkendler (talk · contribs) are either unreferenced, poorly referenced, or have an unclear style, in many cases both. I've tried talking to them on their user page, but get no response other than reinstatement of bad edits. --Redrose64 (talk) 12:18, 13 February 2016 (UTC) Parent, Ontario listed at Redirects for discussion An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Parent, Ontario.

Cnilep (talk) 06:29, 16 March 2016 (UTC) Royal Manitoba Theatre CentreHello PKT, I am from the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre, currently updating our production history page. I noticed you had disambiguated a couple of links on our page, and would like to thank you for your efforts. Our main focus right now is in checking links, cleaning up formats, and ensuring proper attributions to the playwrights and creators are being given. Of particular interest is ensuring our page meets the Wikipedia standards and guidelines, as well as the standards for other theatre centre production histories throughout Canada. Given your experience in this area of Wikipedia, any advice or information that you could provide would be greatly appreciated, and help facilitate our mission to improve the article. Thank-you.

You unlinked the chess club Sollentuna SK. Why do you think that the club is not notable? They've been winning the Swedish Chess Championship 6 times (1999, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2006 and 2007).

Hi PKT I linked M.A. Buntine to his Wikipedia bio at Arnold Buntine but you reversed it. Was that a mistake? You might like to reverse your edit so that Dr Martyn Arnold Buntine (1898-1975), who was Principal of the Geelong College from 1946 to early 1960, is wiki linked. Thanks Castlemate (talk) 00:22, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

Thank you
That brings us down to only 2 territories and 1 more province of Canada's to go. Getting close to a complete set. The Transhumanist 04:33, 12 August 2016 (UTC) Ghayl Habban"Ghayl Habban" is a name that I frequently saw in literature about Yemen without ever finding an accurate explanation of it in English (I found German and Arabic explanations, but no good English explanations). I tried to make people a favor and I wrote what may be the first accurate explanation in English. I left the Arabic names of the villages because they are unvocalized and it is not possible to transliterate them, but providing unvocalized names is better than nothing. --HD86 (talk) 19:58, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

If you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Canada like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1600 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for Canada but fuelled by a contest such as The North America Destubathon to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. I would like some support from Canadian wikipedians here to get the Challenge off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile! Cheers. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 22 November 2016 (UTC) Thomas PowerRegards, Max.--Maxaxax (talk) 22:33, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
