Welcome to WikiProject Vancouver! Hello, Theorb, and welcome to WikiProject Vancouver! I'm glad you have decided to join our group of Vancouver-based Wikipedians, which is growing all the time. Be sure to stop by the WikiProject page for any updates or if you want to see how you can help out -- we keep a "to do" list there, and we'd appreciate any help we can get.

[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 13:55, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vancouver Wikipedians Meetup
Greetings, you're getting this spam (courtesy of Tawkerbot) because you were listed on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Vancouver. In short, we're trying to have a meetup and we'd appreciate it if you'd join our Yahoo Group setup to figure out a time/place that would work. You can find the group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/vancouver_wikipedians/. If you have any questions feel free to make a post there or on the WikiProject page.
Happy Editing!
[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Hong Kong
I've revamped and given new direction to the WikiProject Hong Kong page. Feel free to invite more people to join. The more people the more effective. Be sure to also try and tag as many Hong Kong-related articles as possible with the WikiProject Hong Kong infobox found on the project page. Looking forward to working with you.

[edit] Blue Blood Denim
I do not believe the original text I created was a direct copy from the cited website. Various additions from others have resulted in the article being similar to the text from the cited website. In addition, the picture is also not a copyrighted image as it is a picture of the Blue Blood logo from a pair of jeans that I own.
I suggest that we revert back to the earlier text from the earlier versions that I created. --theorb 01:19, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Richard Ekkebus
I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Richard Ekkebus, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:Richard Ekkebus. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.
