Talk:Oak Bay, British Columbia

message: I am new to the Victoria area and depending on who you ask you get differnt answers to the affiliation Oak Bay has with Victoria. I know Oak bay has their own police force but if I'm not mistaking many services are shared with the city of Victoria.

thread_title:  Merging in of [[Oak Bay Police Department]] 

message: Oak Bay is "stereotyped" as a "holdout" for the old and the wealthy because of its "well-maintained homes with equally well-tended gardens"? I don't know if you call that weasel words or just a total lack of objectivity, but perhaps it could be rephrased in terms of number of retirees, median household income, and not mentioning the gardens at all, unless they are public or especially notable?66.183.63.185 (talk) 08:21, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Certain of Greater Victoria's neighbourhoods are indeed notable for their gardens, including Oak Bay and adjoining Uplands and Rockland areas.  And the rep as a "holdout" for Oak Bay is very true, even in a greyhair ghetto such as most of Victoria is (or was).  It could be rephrased, yes, but a passage similar to what you've queries is fairly citable/quotable as a "review" of the place.  Not for nothing is Oak Bay known as "across the Tweed Curtain", though less so than was formerly the case.Skookum1 (talk) 11:06, 4 July 2013 (UTC)

message: *In 1973 was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
Being nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize is an honor, but it is not official or even prestigious. Any national legislator or about a third of the university professors in the world can make a nomination, and there have been as many as 140 some years. Nominators are requested to keep their nominations secret, so it's only those wishing publicity who make announcements, and more often it is impossible to verify. I see no reason to keep it. No offense to the subject, this is a general Nobel Peace Prize "nominees" issue. -Will Beback · † · 09:54, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

message: The  for the Sierra Blanca benchmark states that the disk is at "summit and highest point of Sierra Blanca mountain" and that the elevation at that point is 11981 feet.

There are two reference marks,  and . The datasheet for reference mark 2 is not available but the datasheet for reference mark 1 gives an elevation of 11982 feet. However, that datasheet states that the "height was scaled from a topographic map" which implies that it is not very accurate.

Talk:Bruno Coutinho (footballer, born 1969)

message: Bruno Coutinho (of Goa in India) and Bruno Coutinho (footballer) (of Brazil) are both footballers.
The problem this presents is, I think, self-evident.
But I think it should also be said that the longer it goes on, the longer it will take to undue further potential confusion, as incorrect incoming links seem inevitable; often people edit existing articles, or create new ones, and simply make wikilinks without checking to see if the one they made links to the article they meant it to link to. If it turns blue upon saving, it looks like everything worked out correctly. In cases where it links to a disambiguation page, instead of the article they meant it for, they’ll receive an alert telling them so, at least giving them an opportunity to change it to point to the correct and intended target. But this isn’t the case in links made to non-disambiguation pages that are an inaccurate target (like this one is).
I use an iPhone for editing, which makes it difficult to make edits with any speed. I would like to move this article to another title, and leave this one behind as a disambiguation page, as (it seems to me) that neither person supersedes the other as the primary. But were I to do it, it would likely lead to undue disruption, as it would take me likely days to fix all the incoming links (given I even have those days). I’m also unsure what the best title for replacing the subject of this one should be.
I’m hoping someone with interest in this subject, and who also knows how (and has the means) to do it with minimum disruption sees this. (Back when I had a working PC, this would have been less of a big deal for me to perform, mostly without help from other editors. So, my apologies for my current lack of ability in this regard.)
