[edit]I downgraded this article from B class to C class. The article is grossly incomplete: Anything that ever happened between 1896 and 1920 is completely missing. --Voyager (talk) 17:11, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
- It was deleted without explanation a while back. I'm restoring the original text.Lord Cornwallis (talk) 02:29, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Relationship between Sir Robert Borden and Jean Borden
[edit]How is Jean Borden and her son, Robert Borden supposed to be descended from Sir Robert, when Sir Robert and Lady Borden were childless? - (203.211.71.108 (talk) 10:03, 18 December 2008 (UTC))
Would someone really confuse him with Frederick Borden or is that just a way of saying they were cousins? --JGGardiner (talk) 10:29, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Sources?
[edit]Is it really so hard to find sources for this stuff? I added a {{according to whom}} to a weaselly looking statement and a {{refimprove}} to the beginning, but maybe I should also tag those sections that have no sources at all. If nobody adds sources I may cite my history textbook, provided I can find out its English title. Cathfolant (talk) 20:08, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
CFB Borden
[edit]I removed a reference to CFB (Canadian Forces Base) Borden being named after Robert Borden (a common misconception). It was named for Frederick William Borden. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Secretsa2 (talk • contribs) 23:48, 20 May 2014 (UTC)
went to article
[edit]What does the phrase "went to article" mean? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 04:00, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
Edit summary question
[edit]User:Mr Serjeant Buzfuz, howdy. What exactly did you mean by your edit summary when you wrote, "Because it's not written by an Ontarian, or published in Ontario?" Ak-eater06 (talk) 22:52, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
- Because all we have is your diktat: "not reliable source". Your edit summary gave no reason why you thought an article written by a North Dakota professor of history, published by one of the most well-established historical societies in western Canada, was "not reliable". Since you gave absolutely no analysis, other than your personal opinion, I was forced to speculate. Were you sating that western sources are inherently unreliable? I suppose I should be happy that for once you deigned to give us an edit summary, even though it was cryptic and unilluminating. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:32, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
Why is this article listed as of interest to WikiProject Religion / Interfaith?
[edit]I've read the article, I've searched "religion"; "christian"; "judaism"; "protestant"; "catholic"; none of which return any hits. What am I missing? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 03:44, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- The tag was added by a strange bot in 2008. The bot was probably confused. I have deleted the tag. Indefatigable (talk) 19:23, 12 February 2022 (UTC)
- Interesting. Thanks. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 01:57, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
