Just recently I reverted his attempt to edit the Christian Heritage Party of Canada to change its description from "social conservative" to "conservative". I ended up wasting time reviewing their platform (ick) to see if there was any significant fiscal conservatism to it, and then explaining to him why "social conservative" was more accuarate than "conservative".

User:Samaritan 14:45, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC) == CPC Central Executive Committee == I've added the names of those elected in 2001 to the CPC's "Central Executive Committee" (ie the Politburo) to the Communist Party of Canada article. I don't know if the CPC has had a convention since 2001 or if the committee's membership has changed at all. User:AndyL 21:48, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) == CPC photos == There's a source of photos for CPC candidates at http://election2004.communist-party.ca/candidates.htm. I'd say if they aren't public domain (I suspect they are) we can use them as Fair Use. User:AndyL 23:32, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) My reading is that since there is no copyright notice on the page, the photos are public domain. User:AndyL 23:42, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) == New Anti-Semitism == The New anti-Semitism article is a POV mess. If you have some time you might want to try to NPOV it or parts thereof. User:AndyL 05:34, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Federal elections charts== I’d like to get some consensus on what to do about colours in the elections charts, but I don’t want to get into a revert war, so I’m asking people to express their opinions here before any changes are made. Since you have contributed to these pages, I’m inviting your comments. I am initiating this discussion because some of the colours that are currently being used are too dark for some monitors so that it is difficult to read the text. The point of adding colours to the charts is to make it easier for readers to derive information from the charts. This goal is foiled by using colours dark enough to obscure the text. The Wikipedia:Guide_to_writing_better_articles#Use_colour_sparingly is clear on the issue: :''Use colour sparingly. Computers and browsers vary: you cannot know how much colour is presented on the recipient's machine if any. Wikipedia is international: colours have different meaning in different cultures. Too many colours on one page make them look cluttered and unencyclopedic. Use the colour red only for alerts and warnings.'' So let’s choose some colours that are light enough that red Wilkilinked text and blue Wikilinked text are both easy to read through. Please join the discussion at: Talk:Canadian federal election results since 1867. Thanks, User:Kevintoronto 17:23, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Your redirect== The article is space and the User space are supposed to be separate entities. A redirect to your User page is no more valid in the article space than an article about you. User:RickKUser talk:RickK 05:07, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC) == CJCurrie article == I've dealt with your CJCurrie problem by "creating" a blank article with blank article text and protecting it. See Wikipedia:Protected_page#Protected_against_article_re-creation_vandalism User:AndyL 13:22, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC) == Maria Van Bommel== Why did you reverse my edits to this article? She said this about the spousal relationship act Mrs. Maria Van Bommel (Lambton-Kent-Middlesex): We've heard a lot in the last few hours about things such as "This is housekeeping" and "This is to bring the legislation in line with court rulings." But I think it goes much deeper than that. I can remember only one other time that I've struggled so much with a decision. This goes far beyond party lines; it goes to the core of what we believe in. I know the majority of my constituents and what they will say, and they would say they are opposed. The act clearly states that my church and my religious beliefs have the right to refuse to be a part of any marriage. It says that very clearly in the act. I'm a practising Catholic. I attend every Sunday with the man that I have been married to for 35 years. Our marriage is defined not only by our church but, more importantly, by us, by our children, our family and our friends. As a parent, I have taught my children kindness and tolerance. The golden rule governs all. It says, "Love thy God; love thy neighbour." It doesn't say, "Love thy neighbour, except if he's a different colour or from a different religion or from a different gender orientation." We are told that God's love is unconditional and that we should live our lives by that rule. So I will be voting my conscience. What I want to do is reinforce what I have told my children are the greatest values of all -- love thy God; love thy neighbour -- and so I will be voting in favour. == Provincial Polling == Dear Mr. Currie, I am glad we came to an agreement. I will accept your final edit and also apologize if I seemed inflexible or have caused any unpleasantness. I only wanted to make sure the written material was fair and unbiased. Sincerely, "Anonymous Respondent" ==Ontario general election, 1999== About your change of the link from Natural Law Party of Canada to Natural Law Party of Ontario, while this is strictly correct, you've now changed the link from * a blue link to an article that (I think) refers to provincial activities of the party to * a red link that connects to nothing. If you're planning to write an article on the NLPO, then by all means, this makes sense. If not, however, I think it makes sense to have a link to the NPLC rather than nothing. Regards, User:Kevintoronto 14:01, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) :Great stuff, CJC. I will look forward to the article. The Ron Parker article was really good. User:Kevintoronto 22:01, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) == david tilson == i don't know how to add links. perhaps you can do it, or tell me how. http://www.northpeel.com/br/orangeville/editorial/letters/story/2587390p-3000151c.html http://www.citizen.on.ca/news3.html these sites refer to eves's parachute jump. i think that describing one of the political views surrounding tilson's decision is a relevant addition. == James Armstrong Richardson == Do you know anything about James Armstrong Richardson, former cabinet minister and Winnipeg South MP?User:AndyL 10:40, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Conservative Party of Canada== I didn't delete Cheryl Gallant. I deleted Libby Davies because I didn't think it made sesne to call her a CPC MP. I was wondering who it was supposed to be. thanks for putting that in. User:Kevintoronto 20:43, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Kevin M Marshall User Page== Thanks for your vigilance, but it was actually me making the edit to my user page from my home computer (I thought I had logged on, but I guess the Internet was acting up). There had been a Candide (operetta) page which existed before my Candide (musical) page and mine was changed into a redirect, so I figured I might as well delete it. Thanks for your keen eyes, though. I knew I made the edit, but I hadn't realized it wasn't done by my username! Keep up the good work. User:Kevin M Marshall 21:44, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Chicago aldermen== Hi there! Since the discussion seemed finished, I've closed up the Wikipedia:Deletion_policy/Local_politicians discussion for now. I believe consensus has been established that local politicians deserve mention in Wikipedia, but not in a separate article UNLESS they have done something exceptional. Would you please check if you find this a reasonable conclusion, and leave a short note on that page's talk page? Thanks. Yours, User:Radiant! 10:13, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC) == CL == For info about the CL and its candidates in elections over the past ten years best to go to [http://www.themilitant.com the militant website] and use the search function in the archives using words like canada, election, "communist league" etc. User:AndyL 13:11, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Revolutionary Marxist Group == You might want to look at Revolutionary Marxist Group (Canada) which I've just written and add anything you might find on their electoral intervention. I know they ran candidates (a handful) in the 1977 Ontario provincial election, they may have as well in the 1975 Ontario election and possibly the 1974 federal. As I recall, Stauffer library's stacks have an almost complete collection of their newspaper ''Old Mole'' as well as ''Socialist Voice'' which was the RWL paper (1977 to late 1980s) so you might want to browse thorugh them and see if you find mention of candidates. User:AndyL 19:28, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) I've also just spun off Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire as a seperate article. User:AndyL 20:18, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) And Socialist League (Canada). User:AndyL 20:58, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Kudos== Kudos, in particular, on your recent work on political party leaders, and in general, on your on-going contributions here. Also, I have set up a voting scheme at Talk:Canadian federal election results since 1867, and would like your views. Regards, User:Kevintoronto 20:29, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) :Thanks for your vote. The more people who vote, the more likely we'll be able to get a decision that sticks. I wanted to add something about the one independent elected in the Ontario 1995 election and was going from memory. I'm glad you caught that. It was Peter North, not Kormos. User:Kevintoronto 14:38, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Rosemary Ann Ray== Rosemary is a longtime member of the CL and its predecessors. There is no five candidate rule in Ontario - a registered party only needs to run a single candidate to maintain their status (hence the Reform Party of Ontario running a single candidate in elections through the 1990s). I suspect the CP-O listing is an error by Elections Ontario since the Communist League is not a registered political party - she probably wrote "Communist League" on her registration form and the election officials assumed she meant "Communinst Party". User:AndyL 22:22, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==email== Can you email me your email address? I'm at work right now and can't access my address book. User:AndyL 16:49, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Communist Party of Canada == George Hewison, or an ally, has rewritten the article on Hewison and put forward a different version of the conflict within the Communist Party of Canada in the early 1990s. We should perhaps revisist the CPC article and related ones eg Miguel Figueroa in light of this.User:AndyL 06:06, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Revisionist Zionism == Could you please take a look at the dispute at Revisionist Zionism? User:Guy Montag is trying to censor material critical of Revisionist Zionism, particularly documented evidence of fascist sympathies among various Revisionists in the early 1930s. User:AndyL 22:36, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Ontario provincial elections== You may have noticed that I have started linking from articles to Ont election articles for 1867-1943 that don't exist yet. I am working on creating the same sort of stubs that I did recently for 1945 - 1977. I suppose I will wait for the outcome of the colours discussion before posting them. User:Kevintoronto 23:39, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Ernie Eves== Hey CJ. I just reverted you on Ernie Eves. I had seen that change myself and asked Blueboy96 about it. he explained that the sentence he deleted repeats the point made in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph. So he was editing to reduce duplication, not for POV purposes. User:Kevintoronto 23:21, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) :No wockin' furries, mate. User:Kevintoronto 23:27, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==Ontario general election, 1990== I have responded on the talk page. I am wondering if thsi would be a question to put to the general community since it arises in a variety of instances. Maybe a discussion on the Canadian community page? User:Kevintoronto 20:48, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC) == CPC-ML == You're going to turn green with envy but I had the opportunity of attending the CPC-ML's 35th anniversary celebration in Toronto last weekend! User:AndyL 14:29, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Ontario politicians == Hi, Since I see you're now working on Ontario politicians may I direct your attention that there are a number of candidates at past leadership conventions who do not have articles and others who have only sketchy articles. I've done the best I can without regular access to a library. If your focus is now on Ontario politics it would be greatly appreciated if you could try to fill in those historical blanks when you have time. See Ontario Liberal leadership conventions, Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership conventions and Ontario CCF/NDP leadership conventions (the latter article has no red links but some of the earlier biographical articles in particular are sketchy.)

I have three quesions for you: # The 1981 and subsequent elections have the "at dissolution/before" numbers instead of the "previous election" numbers. Would you object to me adding a "previous" column in to the left of the "dissolution" column as I've done for the Canadian federal election, 1965 and subsequent federal elections? # For the federal elections charts, I have calculated the % change for both the seats and pop vote on the previous instead of dissolution numbers since the latter doesn't make any sense for pop vote numbers. Here we don't have the pop vote numbers yet. What do you think we should do for % change in seats? Leave it based on the dissolution number, or change it to the previous number to be consistent with the federal tables? # In the election cited in the heading above, the Tories won 24 seats, the NDP 30 and the Libs 1. Any idea what happened to the other two seats? (I have a mental picture of the Legislature being cleaned over the summer and two seats being inadvertently left in storage, but there is likely to be a better explanation than that.)

User:Samaritan 14:45, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC) == CPC Central Executive Committee == I've added the names of those elected in 2001 to the CPC's "Central Executive Committee" (ie the Politburo) to the Communist Party of Canada article. I don't know if the CPC has had a convention since 2001 or if the committee's membership has changed at all. User:AndyL 21:48, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) == CPC photos == There's a source of photos for CPC candidates at http://election2004.communist-party.ca/candidates.htm. I'd say if they aren't public domain (I suspect they are) we can use them as Fair Use. User:AndyL 23:32, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) My reading is that since there is no copyright notice on the page, the photos are public domain. User:AndyL 23:42, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC) == New Anti-Semitism == The New anti-Semitism article is a POV mess. If you have some time you might want to try to NPOV it or parts thereof. User:AndyL 05:34, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Federal elections charts== I’d like to get some consensus on what to do about colours in the elections charts, but I don’t want to get into a revert war, so I’m asking people to express their opinions here before any changes are made. Since you have contributed to these pages, I’m inviting your comments. I am initiating this discussion because some of the colours that are currently being used are too dark for some monitors so that it is difficult to read the text. The point of adding colours to the charts is to make it easier for readers to derive information from the charts. This goal is foiled by using colours dark enough to obscure the text. The Wikipedia:Guide_to_writing_better_articles#Use_colour_sparingly is clear on the issue: :''Use colour sparingly. Computers and browsers vary: you cannot know how much colour is presented on the recipient's machine if any. Wikipedia is international: colours have different meaning in different cultures. Too many colours on one page make them look cluttered and unencyclopedic. Use the colour red only for alerts and warnings.'' So let’s choose some colours that are light enough that red Wilkilinked text and blue Wikilinked text are both easy to read through. Please join the discussion at: Talk:Canadian federal election results since 1867. Thanks, User:Kevintoronto 17:23, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Your redirect== The article is space and the User space are supposed to be separate entities. A redirect to your User page is no more valid in the article space than an article about you. User:RickKUser talk:RickK 05:07, Feb 23, 2005 (UTC) == CJCurrie article == I've dealt with your CJCurrie problem by "creating" a blank article with blank article text and protecting it. See Wikipedia:Protected_page#Protected_against_article_re-creation_vandalism User:AndyL 13:22, 23 Feb 2005 (UTC) == Maria Van Bommel== Why did you reverse my edits to this article? She said this about the spousal relationship act Mrs. Maria Van Bommel (Lambton-Kent-Middlesex): We've heard a lot in the last few hours about things such as "This is housekeeping" and "This is to bring the legislation in line with court rulings." But I think it goes much deeper than that. I can remember only one other time that I've struggled so much with a decision. This goes far beyond party lines; it goes to the core of what we believe in. I know the majority of my constituents and what they will say, and they would say they are opposed. The act clearly states that my church and my religious beliefs have the right to refuse to be a part of any marriage. It says that very clearly in the act. I'm a practising Catholic. I attend every Sunday with the man that I have been married to for 35 years. Our marriage is defined not only by our church but, more importantly, by us, by our children, our family and our friends. As a parent, I have taught my children kindness and tolerance. The golden rule governs all. It says, "Love thy God; love thy neighbour." It doesn't say, "Love thy neighbour, except if he's a different colour or from a different religion or from a different gender orientation." We are told that God's love is unconditional and that we should live our lives by that rule. So I will be voting my conscience. What I want to do is reinforce what I have told my children are the greatest values of all -- love thy God; love thy neighbour -- and so I will be voting in favour. == Provincial Polling == Dear Mr. Currie, I am glad we came to an agreement. I will accept your final edit and also apologize if I seemed inflexible or have caused any unpleasantness. I only wanted to make sure the written material was fair and unbiased. Sincerely, "Anonymous Respondent" ==Ontario general election, 1999== About your change of the link from Natural Law Party of Canada to Natural Law Party of Ontario, while this is strictly correct, you've now changed the link from * a blue link to an article that (I think) refers to provincial activities of the party to * a red link that connects to nothing. If you're planning to write an article on the NLPO, then by all means, this makes sense. If not, however, I think it makes sense to have a link to the NPLC rather than nothing. Regards, User:Kevintoronto 14:01, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) :Great stuff, CJC. I will look forward to the article. The Ron Parker article was really good. User:Kevintoronto 22:01, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC) == david tilson == i don't know how to add links. perhaps you can do it, or tell me how. http://www.northpeel.com/br/orangeville/editorial/letters/story/2587390p-3000151c.html http://www.citizen.on.ca/news3.html these sites refer to eves's parachute jump. i think that describing one of the political views surrounding tilson's decision is a relevant addition. == James Armstrong Richardson == Do you know anything about James Armstrong Richardson, former cabinet minister and Winnipeg South MP?User:AndyL 10:40, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC) ==Conservative Party of Canada== I didn't delete Cheryl Gallant. I deleted Libby Davies because I didn't think it made sesne to call her a CPC MP. I was wondering who it was supposed to be. thanks for putting that in. User:Kevintoronto 20:43, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Kevin M Marshall User Page== Thanks for your vigilance, but it was actually me making the edit to my user page from my home computer (I thought I had logged on, but I guess the Internet was acting up). There had been a Candide (operetta) page which existed before my Candide (musical) page and mine was changed into a redirect, so I figured I might as well delete it. Thanks for your keen eyes, though. I knew I made the edit, but I hadn't realized it wasn't done by my username! Keep up the good work. User:Kevin M Marshall 21:44, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Chicago aldermen== Hi there! Since the discussion seemed finished, I've closed up the Wikipedia:Deletion_policy/Local_politicians discussion for now. I believe consensus has been established that local politicians deserve mention in Wikipedia, but not in a separate article UNLESS they have done something exceptional. Would you please check if you find this a reasonable conclusion, and leave a short note on that page's talk page? Thanks. Yours, User:Radiant! 10:13, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC) == CL == For info about the CL and its candidates in elections over the past ten years best to go to [http://www.themilitant.com the militant website] and use the search function in the archives using words like canada, election, "communist league" etc. User:AndyL 13:11, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Revolutionary Marxist Group == You might want to look at Revolutionary Marxist Group (Canada) which I've just written and add anything you might find on their electoral intervention. I know they ran candidates (a handful) in the 1977 Ontario provincial election, they may have as well in the 1975 Ontario election and possibly the 1974 federal. As I recall, Stauffer library's stacks have an almost complete collection of their newspaper ''Old Mole'' as well as ''Socialist Voice'' which was the RWL paper (1977 to late 1980s) so you might want to browse thorugh them and see if you find mention of candidates. User:AndyL 19:28, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) I've also just spun off Revolutionary Workers League/Ligue Ouvrière Révolutionnaire as a seperate article. User:AndyL 20:18, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) And Socialist League (Canada). User:AndyL 20:58, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Kudos== Kudos, in particular, on your recent work on political party leaders, and in general, on your on-going contributions here. Also, I have set up a voting scheme at Talk:Canadian federal election results since 1867, and would like your views. Regards, User:Kevintoronto 20:29, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) :Thanks for your vote. The more people who vote, the more likely we'll be able to get a decision that sticks. I wanted to add something about the one independent elected in the Ontario 1995 election and was going from memory. I'm glad you caught that. It was Peter North, not Kormos. User:Kevintoronto 14:38, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Rosemary Ann Ray== Rosemary is a longtime member of the CL and its predecessors. There is no five candidate rule in Ontario - a registered party only needs to run a single candidate to maintain their status (hence the Reform Party of Ontario running a single candidate in elections through the 1990s). I suspect the CP-O listing is an error by Elections Ontario since the Communist League is not a registered political party - she probably wrote "Communist League" on her registration form and the election officials assumed she meant "Communinst Party". User:AndyL 22:22, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==email== Can you email me your email address? I'm at work right now and can't access my address book. User:AndyL 16:49, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Communist Party of Canada == George Hewison, or an ally, has rewritten the article on Hewison and put forward a different version of the conflict within the Communist Party of Canada in the early 1990s. We should perhaps revisist the CPC article and related ones eg Miguel Figueroa in light of this.User:AndyL 06:06, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC) == Revisionist Zionism == Could you please take a look at the dispute at Revisionist Zionism? User:Guy Montag is trying to censor material critical of Revisionist Zionism, particularly documented evidence of fascist sympathies among various Revisionists in the early 1930s. User:AndyL 22:36, 12 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Ontario provincial elections== You may have noticed that I have started linking from articles to Ont election articles for 1867-1943 that don't exist yet. I am working on creating the same sort of stubs that I did recently for 1945 - 1977. I suppose I will wait for the outcome of the colours discussion before posting them. User:Kevintoronto 23:39, 18 Mar 2005 (UTC) ==Ernie Eves== Hey CJ. I just reverted you on Ernie Eves. I had seen that change myself and asked Blueboy96 about it. he explained that the sentence he deleted repeats the point made in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph. So he was editing to reduce duplication, not for POV purposes. User:Kevintoronto 23:21, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) :No wockin' furries, mate. User:Kevintoronto 23:27, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC) ==Ontario general election, 1990== I have responded on the talk page. I am wondering if thsi would be a question to put to the general community since it arises in a variety of instances. Maybe a discussion on the Canadian community page? User:Kevintoronto 20:48, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC) == CPC-ML == You're going to turn green with envy but I had the opportunity of attending the CPC-ML's 35th anniversary celebration in Toronto last weekend! User:AndyL 14:29, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Ontario politicians == Hi, Since I see you're now working on Ontario politicians may I direct your attention that there are a number of candidates at past leadership conventions who do not have articles and others who have only sketchy articles. I've done the best I can without regular access to a library. If your focus is now on Ontario politics it would be greatly appreciated if you could try to fill in those historical blanks when you have time. See Ontario Liberal leadership conventions, Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership conventions and Ontario CCF/NDP leadership conventions (the latter article has no red links but some of the earlier biographical articles in particular are sketchy.) User:AndyL 23:19, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC) == Christel Haeck == Are we [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Christel_Haeck&diff=12373969&oldid=12373910 on the same page] now?

I have three quesions for you: # The 1981 and subsequent elections have the "at dissolution/before" numbers instead of the "previous election" numbers. Would you object to me adding a "previous" column in to the left of the "dissolution" column as I've done for the Canadian federal election, 1965 and subsequent federal elections? # For the federal elections charts, I have calculated the % change for both the seats and pop vote on the previous instead of dissolution numbers since the latter doesn't make any sense for pop vote numbers. Here we don't have the pop vote numbers yet. What do you think we should do for % change in seats? Leave it based on the dissolution number, or change it to the previous number to be consistent with the federal tables? # In the election cited in the heading above, the Tories won 24 seats, the NDP 30 and the Libs 1. Any idea what happened to the other two seats? (I have a mental picture of the Legislature being cleaned over the summer and two seats being inadvertently left in storage, but there is likely to be a better explanation than that.) Regards, User:Ground Zero 21:09, 5 May 2005 (UTC) ==Freedom Party== CJ, you're basing your arguments on things you found in the ''Freedom Flyer''? I'm not sure that that counts as a reliable source. ;-) User:Ground Zero 21:14, 12 May 2005 (UTC) ==Saskatchewan - Manitoba== I really should learn the difference between these two some day. Thanks for catching my goof. User:Ground Zero 19:06, 27 May 2005 (UTC) ==Northern Alliance== Nice work on that article, CJ.

I have just listed it on Wikipedia:Peer review/Liberal Party of Canada leadership convention, 1968 for comment. I know you are one of the most active Wikipedians in these areas and I would much appreciate to hear any comments or criticisms you might have. - User:SimonP 14:01, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC) ==Bloc Québécois leadership elections== I have reasoned out an answer to your Sept 2004 question at Talk:Bloc Québécois leadership elections. Please take a look. User:Ground Zero 15:37, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC) ==Thanks for the revert== I've been using this name for several months now and this problem has only just started. The term Ground zero has been around a lot longer than four years, so I don't know what this goof is on about. I even added an explanation to my user page, but that doesn't seem to have helped.
