[edit]More concision in the writing, without losing any facts, of course, would make this article better. --Wetman 21:22, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
Bad link removed
[edit]The link from Jonathan Jones goes to a disambig page; none of the names on this page refer to the person in this article, so i've deleted the link.Jon Rob 14:33, 1 March 2006 (UTC)
Ninja edits
[edit]I'm not quite sure why the Ninja info is unacceptable. It has been verified by 3 users. We can keep getting other members of the community to complain, but it seems the user Anger22 is revising articles according to his own agenda.
Agreed
[edit]The person trying to make all the Kidston island Ninja edits is one of my co-workers. Over the last few days i have been fixing many of the blunders made by wikipedia users, mostly in crusade related articles. Anger22 is making it difficult for this site to function, which is a shame. There is a small number of Ninjas on that island, and they should be appreciated.--MedievalScholar 16:54, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
Please; Ninja injustice
[edit]Why is it that the Ninja clan of Kidston Island has not been done justice? They are an important part of the community here in Baddeck, Cape Breton. They provide a theraputic avenue towards spiritual enlightenment and work hand in hand with the Western Medicine practicianers in the area.
Ninja
[edit]I was just speaking to a Ninja who was at the local Co-op Grocery store selecting melons for a natural remedy, and he was extremely disatisfied with the fact that his fellow clan members are seemingly being omitted from the records of Baddeck.
Kidston's Island
[edit]You guys are right! How come there's no mention of the ninjas on one of the islands near Baddeck? My mom's from Baddeck, and when we went there last summer, she showed me the island and the plaque and everything... Maybe people delete it because it sounds so far out there? I don't know... but anyway... they should be be mentioned, since there one of a lot of religious groups who have come to the Maritimes to set up communities.
Unsourced information
[edit]I don't care how many users agree. If it hasn't appeared in a reliable source, the information doesn't belong in Wikipedia. Period.

Location on the map is wrong
[edit]The pointer on the map doesn't look correct. Baddeck is on Bras D'or, which is roughly in the middle of Cape Breton Island. The pointer is well to the North of Baddeck. It needs to be moved South.

Proposed overhaul
[edit]- bring structure into line with standard WP template e.g. Lunenburg, per WP:CITSTRUCT, etc.
- clarify governance e.g. it's part of a county municipality
- clean up some of the WP:CONTENTFORKING in Tourist Attractions in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, History of Baddeck, Historic Buildings in Baddeck, Nova Scotia, Alexander Graham Bell, Beinn Bhreagh, etc.
Please let me know if you have any thoughts, if no comments I will boldly WP:FIXIT. --Cornellier (talk) 16:04, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
- Done. Also replaced list of "notable people" with link to People from Baddeck. Would now like to add more geographic info. --Cornellier (talk) 20:43, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
