Talk:2006 Winter Olympics closing ceremony

message: The first versions of this article seemed to be an almost direct copy from the IOC news story: here, edited slightly which only made it more unintelligible.  Besides being a copywrite violation, this was blatantly non-POV.  I think it makes more sense to curtail information until after the event actually happens than to copy POV information from the official brochure.  I've edited what I can and will also add the appropriate live event disclaimer. Crunch 14:16, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Copy from IOC article 

message: The title of this article is 2006 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremony but throughout it is referred to as the ceremonies. We should probably be consistent.  Either change the title to plural, with a rederict, rewrite the article to reference the event as singular. Crunch 13:13, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The media and the website use the plural form. Even though I don't know the reason for the use of plural though, I support following the official norm with ceremonies. --Kvasir 14:54, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would agree, but shouldn't we move the article to 2006 Winter Olympics Closing Ceremonies then?  Regards, Redux 20:47, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Ceremony or Ceremonies? 

message: Any sign of him in these Olympics? Was he suppose to be at the Games representing the Canadian federal government? The mayor was there, the premier was there, and even the GG and her family, where's the federal government? David Emerson was created Minister for the Pacific Gateway and the Vancouver-Whistler Olympics afterall. Did he get recalled already? --Kvasir 00:52, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: There was no sign of Emerson. The GG and her family and Foreign Affairs Minister Peter MacKay represented the federal government.   -- SNIyer12 02:42, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Avril Lavigne's performance was actually part of the Vancouver segment of the ceremonies. However, it also fits with the musical finale portion too. I've added the Avril mention to the Vancouver segment as well; I'm going to let you guys decide which section it should go under (right now there are two Avril mentions in the article), since I'm not that experienced with Olympic articles and don't know too much about any "structural rules" of such articles. --Buchanan-Hermit™..CONTRIBS..SPEAK! 07:07, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I support organising it chronologically. Which means only mention Lavigne in the Vancouver 2010 section. --Kvasir 08:34, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
