message: The local fight to get a NHL team references 2009; I don't know that these pieces of information are relevant anymore. i suggest revisiting this section if not removing it entirely.
:Hamilton's attempt at getting its own NHL team is relevant as to its history. These attempts have been discussed in other venues outside the city (and even outside Canada). ... discospinster talk 21:15, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

message: I am concerned that this article no longer meets the featured article criteria I have outlined my concerns below:
*A short lede that needs to be expanded
*Multiple sentences and paragraphs that need citations
*Layout concerns causing MOS:SANDWICH
*A history section with no information post-2001
*Lots of small paragraphs that can be merged or reformatted
Is anyone interested in fixing this up? Pinging  and  as they were involved in the article's FAC. Z1720 (talk) 16:13, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi , after I posted my notice you made lots of great edits. Are you interested in fixing up this article, or should I nominate this to FAR later this week? Z1720 (talk) 18:47, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Z1720, I'm interested, but am also trying to work on a few others that have been noticed so can't give any guarantees as to timeline. Nikkimaria (talk) 19:32, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: In that case, I won't FAR this. Please ping me when edits are complete and I'll reassess. Z1720 (talk) 19:40, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  is this article at FA standards? If so, can you mark it as such at WP:URFA/2020? If not, are editors still working on this or should we prepare an FAR? Z1720 (talk) 19:10, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the ping. I would say it's not quite there yet. Did you have concerns other than the ones mentioned above? Nikkimaria (talk) 01:29, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

text: are you still working on this, or this is article ready for another review? From a quick skim it looks like this article is much better than it was two years ago, but there are still some sections that are missing citations. Z1720 (talk) 19:23, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks Z1720 - if you have other concerns I'd be interested in hearing them. Nikkimaria (talk) 00:35, 7 March 2023 (UTC)

message: I am adding a sustainability section. If anyone wishes to participate or help clean up and streamline other sections there is a discussion at the Canadian Wikipedians noticeboard regarding this project. It is a multi-city effort where we will be doing the same for other cities in Canada.  Mkevlar (talk) 10:23, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: We have removed this type of section before as a wish list of policies....that said info on current stats would be ok.--Moxy- 21:36, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

text: In the past, this section would have been speculation but since 2016 sustainability has gained traction across North American cities and can now be considered noteworthy. Mkevlar (talk) 2:55, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Sustainability is not a section expected at community articles according to WP:CCSG. If you want to start doing this across Canadian communities, I suggest you start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Canadian communities/Structure guideline and place a notice of said discussion here, at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Canadian communities, and at Wikipedia talk:Canadian Wikipedians' notice board to catch a wider audience.

message: In looking through some other pages, I noticed that the commune of Sulmona, Italy, is listed as a twin city with Hamilton (here and here), however, is not listed as a sister city on this page. I can't seem to find any citations that would support this, however it is curious that the two other pages would include Sulmona. I am inexperienced in Wikipedia editing and unsure of how to proceed with this, so I am just leaving this message here in case someone more knowledgeable would care to do some digging/remedy this.

replies: text: This article  from 2023 says "In 1985, Racalmuto, Sicily, became the first Italian city to commence its twinning relationship with the City of Hamilton. More than 25,000 Hamilton residents have roots in Racalmuto with a portion of Murray St. West in Ward 2 known as Corso Racalmuto in honour of the Racalmutesi. In 1992, Valle Peligna, Abruzzo, became the second Italian city to twin with Hamilton, further strengthening the relationship between Hamilton and the region.".  Doesn't list Sulmona ...

replies: text: And this one from August 2023 says Hamilton "is twinned with 10 municipalities around the world: Racalmuto (Sicily) Italy; Valle Peligna (Abruzzo) Italy; Shawinigan, Que.; Flint, Mich.; Sarasota, Fla.; Monterrey, Mexico; Mangalore, India; Ma’anshan, China; Fukuyama, Japan; and Kaga, Japan." Bbolker (talk) 21:10, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

text: Hamilton's official site has the following news release, which mentioned Sulmona as a twin city along with a number of other towns in Abruzzo. It's referring to 1992 however, so it's not clear whether the relationship still exists. ... discospinster talk 21:21, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
