Glad to see that somebody new's arrived to write War of 1812 articles. I'm too slow to fill the many glaring holes out there, so welcome. :) Lord Bob 23:05, Apr 11, 2004 (UTC)

Hi Madmagic, great article on Terry Southern. (I hope you really wrote all of it yourself and there is no copyright violation.) It had been long overdue. Looking forward to reading your other contributions, <KF> 22:38, 16 Apr 2004 (UTC)

I only mentioned the idea of a copyright violation because (a) there's quite a number of people contributing to Wikipedia who are obviously not familiar with the concept of plagiarism and because (b) the article is so good. So keep on writing! <KF> 17:43, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Hi, juat a message to ask if you could add some info to an article before you put in the stub msg? Articles that solely consist of that msg are normally speedily deleted. --

Articles that are little more than external links are equally speedily deleted. Try adding some of you own text to

Hi...this may not have been mentioned to you before, but when you add a category link to an article on a person, could you please use the format [[Category:Whatever|Surname, First Name]] rather than just [[Category:Whatever]]? If you do it without the extra step, it alphabetizes wrong on the category page (frex, Peter Russell would file under P instead of R.) This also applies to any article title beginning with The, by the way. Bearcat 08:12, 1 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Thank you for your support of the status . Hope you can help.

I've just listed Military history of Canada on Peer review with hopes of eventually elevating it to a featured article. I know you have worked on this article and contributed a great deal in this area, and any input you might have would be much appreciated. - SimonP 00:43, July 14, 2005 (UTC)

Seems to me you're so obviously POV on this that I can't be bothered to debate the issue with you. This is clearly a matter of opinion where no agreement is possible. Also, frankly, I don't care for your tone, and I've got better things to do than waste time quibbling with some self-important little-boots with a fairly transparent agenda. No interest in discussing this further. WMMartin 11:45, 12 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Patrick Watson is a Companion of the Order of Canada. See this link: [1]. I didn't read the article. I will correct both. (Update: the article actually says he is a Companion as well).

I've been working on a bid to bring Wikimania 2006 to Toronto. I have contacted KMDI, an institute at the University of Toronto. They are very interested in partnering with us, and can get us a full range of U of T facilities for free. With this offer I think there is a very good chance of bringing Wikimania 2006 to Toronto. The only thing we currently lack are people willing to help out. I'm willing to do much of the work, but for the time being I am in Ottawa and having some people on the ground in Toronto will be necessary. We also need a number of people willing to assist at the actual event, likely the first weekend of August 2006. If you are interested in helping out sign up at Wikimania 2006/Toronto. Preliminary bids from various cities need to be made by Sept. 30, 2005, at which point a committee will choose which city gets to host the event. The number of people willing to help will certainly be an important consideration. - SimonP 16:33, September 6, 2005 (UTC)

Madmagic,

see the above articles talkpage for an explanation.--Ansbachdragoner 03:00, 26 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and thanks for signing up at Wikimania_2006/Toronto. It has been announced that there will be a half hour meeting on the Wikimania IRC channel tomorrow October 2, at 20:00 UST (4:00 pm EST) to pick the 3 city shortlist. It would be great if you could attend. Also these are our last hours to ensure that our bid at Wikimania_2006/Toronto is as good as it can be, so any improvements to it would also be useful. - SimonP 20:42, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! I'd like to invite you to explore Wikimedia Canada, and create a list of people interested in forming a local chapter for our nation. A local chapter will help promote and improve the organization, within our great nation. We'd also like to encourage everyone to suggest projects for our national chapter to participate in. Hope to see you there!--DarkEvil 17:11, 20 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:Task Force/Canadian Mil Hist notice

Madmagic, I noticed that you contributed to the peacekeeping article in December. You seemed concerned about the poor quality of the article. I have significantly overhauled the article (as a draft on a subpage) and would like to know what you think. You can find it at Talk:Peacekeeping/Sandbox. If you know anyone else who is concerned about the article, please let them know too. Thanks. --Tjss(Talk) 21:07, 11 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please note: Three non-specific comments (templated comments added to the Talk pages of many Wikipedians) that were formerly on this Talk page, and were made between 11 July 2006 and 5 November 2007 -- were removed today because of their large graphics, and to make this page quicker for my slow computer to load. Please see the History of this page, if you wish to view any or all of those comments. cheers,
