Talk:Ucluelet, British Columbia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Broadcasting section dubious
either it's to be a separate article, or deleted entirely; it's a study document, a public report; maybe something like a community-oriented Wiki, a variant on WikiSource, for public debates and assemblage of youtube etc links as a collective effort/forum, and taht would bbe a good thing; but this is for a radio license, not an environmental or geohazard study. I'm vvery uncertain it belongs in regular wikipedia at all; and, as said, on teh other hand Wiki technology and the appropriate environment for "community wiki" (Wikimunity?) for debate/resources on public issues, that's a good thing; I'm just not sure this is encyclopedic.Skookum1 (talk) 05:26, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] "Segregation ended" - Ucluelet FN/Ucluelet BC
I've noticed this elsewhere, though not often; at most town/city articles there's some mention of the [[Ucluelet First Nation|local First Nation. Especially, um, when the town is named for them; I was surprised not to see anything here; and in the Demographics section just something promoting retirement property, so it's pretty clear that the page has been massaged a bit; more on actual history and less current travelogue/stats, and pics, and some community (as opposed to corporate) flavour would go a long way to humanizing it; but that's true of a lot of town articles, not just in BC (but often in BC). Anyway, I've interlinked Ucluelet, British Columbia and Ucluelet First Nation for the first time....quelle étrange... but this is BC, isn't it? Anyway other editors pls watch out for such "digital segregation"; it's subtle, but it is intentional; talk about two solitudes, we've got fifty....the demoraphics section here could have something on the ethnic composition of the non-native community, the former cannery populations and so on, decline with decline of the fishery and loggging alike and so on; I don't know much about Ucluelet, just wanting this article to sound and look like something more than a village/town brochure.Skookum1 (talk) 05:37, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
