message: According to the edit history that map was uploaded by the user Mhecky on December 10th, 2021. Prior to that the climate maps did not show anywhere in Ontario with a humid subtropical climate. Is this accurate? Is Niagara-On-The-Lake actually subtropical, and if so, how come I can't find any other sources for this?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Speyeker (talk • contribs) 22:54, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It is a hoax by Usee:Mhecky, who has vandalized and abused numerous accounts along with their sock User:Screendeemer. It has been removed and was completely a lie based on a source from a German site of a microclimate in Lake Ontario, not mainland Ontario. Lakersfan89 (talk) 20:11, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

message: I don’t think indigenous should be capitalized. However, I don’t know what the MOS says, and I’m not going to change all 16 occurences. Humphrey Tribble (talk) 05:08, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: In Canada when referring to the people it is capitalized by all government agencies and bodies, so it's a capitalized proper collective noun just like any other group of peoples. We capitalize French, German, Canadian etc and Indigineous is just a collective people group like those. If used just to describe someone or something native to an area, it's not a proper noun.

message: I don't understand the numbers given as the area of Ontario:
Area (2021 land)
 • Total 1,076,395 km2 (415,598 sq mi)
 • Land 892,411.76 km2 (344,562.11 sq mi)
 • Water 158,654 km2 (61,257 sq mi)
The total area is greater than the land area plus the water area. Is there an error here? Hughdbrown (talk) 15:39, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
replies: text: The land figure is the only one given in the present source, and matches what that source says. The other two figures are from an older source which gives a different figure for land - so someone updated the land figure and didn't change the other two. I don't know if the water figure from the older source remains accurate. Nikkimaria (talk) 15:51, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
