Article issues

A review needs to be performed on Haida people. There are issues to include a 2007 "More citations needed" tag and this is not in line with the criteria (especially #1). Otr500 (talk) 04:02, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

BC vs. B.C.

The MoS is clear that both B.C. and BC are acceptable as long as it's consistent throughout the article. I was doing some general clean up at History of British Columbia and I noticed that it mixed BC and B.C. so I started changing it for consistency. Then I stopped and thought to come here and see if there's been a conversation on this before. I don't see one, so here it is! I personally don't care BC or B.C. but I'd like some consistency throughout so when I clean up, I know which way to go. Thoughts? Masterhatch (talk) 15:24, 15 September 2021 (UTC)

Misapplication of the county "seat" concept on regional district articles

Hello BC WikiProject members. Not sure if you've noticed, but there is an IP-hopping edit warrior currently persisting with edits affecting infoboxes of BC's various regional district (RD) articles. In particular, the communities in which RD offices are located are being deemed "seats", like how counties in the United States have county seats. I have reviewed the Local Government Act, which enables formation of RDs, and the term "seat" is not used whatsoever to describe where a RD office is located. Further, no material at the Government of BC's website detailing regional districts mentions application of the "seat" concept for RDs in BC. If others are aware that the concept is actually applied in BC, and not an erroneous colloquial extrapolation of the county seat concept in use south of the international border, then please pipe up with reliable sources.

I am asking for eyes on List of regional districts of British Columbia and the 29 RD (and RD-equivalent) articles for continued persistent edit warring/disruptive editing in favour of the IP-hopper's own view/misapplication of the seat concept in BC.
