Val Gagné, Ontario[edit]
... that Val Gagné, Ontario, is named for the heroic efforts of its parish priest, Wilfred "Little Father" Gagné, who died along with most of the settlement's residents during the 1916 Matheson Fire?- ALT1:... that nearly every person in Val Gagné, Ontario, died in the 1916 Matheson Fire, and the settlement was renamed to honour the heroic efforts of the parish priest Wilfred "Little Father" Gagné?

Interesting, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. - I don't need more than three refs for on fact ;) - I think ALT1 works better. - As I see five DYK credits for you, you need to complete a review of another nomination before this can be approved. Let me know if you need help with it. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:12, 3 July 2018 (UTC)- Thank you for reviewing. Please check the hook for spelling. (I see 2 things.) Facts being scattered are no problem, but uncited paragraphs are, and each part of the hook needs a citation right after the fact. - I believe that being a member of an organisation - without financial interests - such as a school, a choir, a charity organization is unproblematic. (I am a member of several choirs and dared to write about them, and their conductor and soloists, - where's conflict there?) - Generally: a review could be a bit more personal especially when missing things, - the other editor is a human being ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:45, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
- I reviewed the other article myself now (in my mind), see nothing promotional, but several bare urls. Ref formatting should look different. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:48, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
I have gone through the article, fact-checking and adding sources and citations. I believe it is ready for a re-review. @Gerda Arendt: Also, "Honour" is an acceptable Canadian English spelling. Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 03:58, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
sorry for missing that the other nom was closed, so qpq accepted. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:16, 22 July 2018 (UTC)
