Talk:AMEX Bank of Canada

message: If memory serves, American Express Canada was not incorporated as a bank in Canada until the Brian Mulroney administration. I've been trying to come up with an exact date. As I recall, there was a bit of a stink about it. --Dhodges 00:35, 23 August 2005 (UTC)

message: I've edited for some clarity, but the dates of incorporation seem incorrect.  In particular the 1998 date cited for the order-in-council seems off as it is 8 years after the date of incorporation as a bank.  Since the 1990 date is backed by a newspaper citation I would question the 1998 date.  Can someone confirm these dates?  Also, could someone confirm that the copy-editing seems complete and remove the copy-edit tag?

Talk:Alice in Hell

message: This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it.  Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed.  I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy.  In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright.  If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally.  Thanks. ---J.S (t|c) 04:22, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Drilnoth: I just noticed that you reverted yourself. (I had left this edit comment when doing a little cleanup after his previous edit: "I don't like this new wording that Drilnoth just changed to.") But you don't need to be that "submissive". We have different views on what is the best wording, but my view isn't more worth than yours. And I am not even a native English speaker, so the wording I used perhaps was bad? And we still have my wording in . So I think we can just as well have your wording here in  so people can see both and comment on them.
The reasons I prefer my wording are that I think it is simpler, and it makes the hide sentence shorter. Your hide sentence is much longer than the more important "this is a backlog" sentence, which kind of looks strange. But your wording "fewer than" sounds better than my old "less than", so I changed that in my version below.
Here are my (David's) version:
And here are Drilnoth's version (but with the small fix I added after his edit):
I think we should revert to Drilnoth's version as shown here, and then wait for comments from people.
