Talk:Kenney Dam

message: The article says: "This flooding impacted surrounding agricultural land and caused the loss of 8.7 cubic meters of timber". Is this missing a hundreds, thousands or millions before the word cubic? 8.7 cubic meters might amount to about one mature tree.

message: They both seem to be used, and both get an equal number of Google hits. How do we figure out which is correct? - TheMightyQuill (talk) 16:33, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Indian and Northern Affairs is not the official Kenn(e)y Dam website. There are a number of BC government websites that spell it without an extra e. Wikipedia's own maps are hardly a legitimate source. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 02:20, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: But it's not a Wikipedia map - its source is the "Alcan British Columbia - Performance Report 2004". Emeraude (talk) 15:51, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sure enough, you are correct. I guess Kenney is more likely then. If you want to see something really odd, check out http://www.alcaninbc.com/performance-reports/2000/images/alcanreport2000.pdf - Alcan's own document uses both Kenny and Kenney on the same map. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 22:23, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That is strange: Kenney 4, Kenny 1. And both spellings in the same diagram!!!! Emeraude (talk) 10:07, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Sounds like an interesting outline. If you have the data on hand, feel free to complete the infobox with the basic technical data. If you're a bit overwhelmed by the coding, don't hesitate to contact me or someone from Wikiproject Dams, such as User:NortyNort. Good luck and enjoy! :) Bouchecl (talk) 23:36, 9 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The outline looks entirely appropriate. It can be revised later if some sections come up short or others go long. However, I'm unsure about the title "Aboriginal impacts" as it sounds like it would be describing how Aboriginal people impacted the dam, rather than how the dam impacted Aboriginal people. maclean (talk) 17:45, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, that's a good point. "Impacts on Aboriginal communities" might be more accurate, then - or perhaps we can simply title the section "Relocation of the Cheslatta T'En," and the part on legal action can be a subsection (since it was a consequence of the relocation). --Ebsutton (talk) 22:02, 10 March 2012 (UTC)
