[edit] Placentia
Hi; I have noticed you removed a good portion of the article attributed to Placentia. Please when you edit articles; explain the reason for doing so. This will certainly go a long way to prevent edit wars. HJKeats 00:56, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- I removed a good chunk of the Placentia article as it was a word for word duplication of the first part of the article-in other words the same paragraphs were put in the article twice. Mícheál 01:11, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- I didn't take the time to compare the edits, just noticed the large of amount of text removed. Interesting that wasn't picked up by prior editors, Good work Mícheál... HJKeats 01:20, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
No problem-thanks for the message-I should have made a mention on the talk page about what I was doing either way-I've just added one :) Mícheál 01:38, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Newfoundland and Labrador WikiProject
There’s now a WikiProject for Newfoundland and Labrador. We hope you’ll join us in making Wikipedia a great source of information about the province and its people. OzLawyer 17:54, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] New Collaboration for Wikipedia:WikiProject Newfoundland and Labrador
A new article SS Florizel of Newfoundland and Labrador context has been created and we invite you to contribute to the article to firstly get it up to DYK status and hopefully to feature article status. The article is about a bit of Newfoundland's marine history and the sinking of the SS Florizel and it’s many passengers including a little girl Betty Munn. If you have any knowledge of the subject please pitch in add/edit and if not specific knowledge of the article if you could help by generating articles on any of the red-ink (wikified) topics, would be great. Thanks so much to help on this article. As a suggestion, maybe every Monday we could offer up a new topic to collaborate on and then pool our talents on that one. Oh and BTW did you catch the article that OzLawyer create on the Newfoundland Tricolour that made it to the Did you know? column on 5 July 2006.! HJKeats 23:24, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
