[edit] Provincial parks

Hi, just a couple of notes about your sandbox pages for provincial parks in BC.

1. You shouldn't actually file a sandbox page directly in an article category until it's ready to go live; you can put a colon before the word "category" in the category link (like [[:Category:this]]) to make it a text link, and then remove the extra colon when you're ready to move the page into real article space.
2. Category:Provincial Parks of British Columbia is already a subcategory of Category:Geography of British Columbia, so you shouldn't file an article in both categories simultaneously. Wikipedia actually has rules about this.

No big worry, I see you're fairly new around here, so you may not have known this yet. Bearcat 09:00, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Big Sur

Thanks for your thoughtful edits to the Big Sur article. I like your picture placement changes. Scooterboss 20:30, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Hey, no problem, Scooterboss. The article was a great read; really makes me want to visit the place. Cheers! →smably 20:50, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SS Valencia

On 29 August 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article SS Valencia, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Thanks for the contribution! -- Samir धर्म 01:56, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Strathcona Provincial Park

Thanks for the editing of the work I did yesterday on this article. Every one of them is an improvement that I should have caught in making the changes to your article when I did them. Such collaborations achieve a positive result, glad to work with you on it. Just reading about the Valencia, an article that I had thought should be done. Pleased to come across it, a well done article! Cheers. KenWalker | Talk 18:50, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the message, Ken! You did an excellent job of expanding the Strathcona article. It's always great to find other Wikipedians who are interested in similar topics. :) Cheers! →smably 19:13, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ian Penman

Could you specify which sentences do not have the correct "tone" so I can fix them? Pepso 09:19, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
