Governor General's Literary Awards

[edit]

Dear SimonP, thanks for initiating Wikipedia's numerous entries about Canada's Governor General's Literary Awards. If this is a topic you are still interested in pursuing, you might like to have a look at a series of articles that a colleague and I have published in the peer-reviewed academic journal, _Papers of the Bibliographical Society of Canada_. In these articles (http://unit8.ok.ubc.ca/__shared/assets/2014irvineggawards48741.pdf) we have done our best to correct the numerous errors contained in the original list of Governor General's Award winners released by the Canada Council. (You will see that the list has now been removed from the Canada Council website.) Thanks again for your interest in this topic. Sincerely, Andrew Irvine

Nomination of List of board games for deletion

[edit]
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of board games is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of board games until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Notice

The article Kent Street (Ottawa) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No significant coverage in independent reliable sources to establish notability. Found mentions, especially from businesses with addresses on this street, but no in-depth content about the street itself (history, economy, etc).

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion based on established criteria.

If the proposed deletion has already been carried out, you may request undeletion of the article at any time. JoeNMLC (talk) 21:31, 16 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
