- What makes the NNDB a reliable source? Wouldn't it be better to source a biography of Alfred Lord Tennyson?
- Citing another generalist encyclopedia such as Encarta to source a generalist encyclopedia is a bit odd. It's not an unreliable source, but it's not the best sourcing possible.
- When you say "criticized by secularlists" you only have one source, so I'm not sure that you can really say more than "one group of secularists". Probably need either another group or two citation or a news article saying specifically that groups plural criticize it. (I don't think this is going to be a big issue to find, since if Canadian secularlists are like US secularlists they dislike references to God in government...)
Otherwise the sources look good. 14:28, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Issues addressed, references resolved. I don't know what you think of The Canadian Encyclopedia as a reference, but I find it extremely useful because it specializes in Canadian content, and it also has a Canadian Music section. The article for "O Canada" is more extensive than I could possibly ask for. I've removed Encarta, though, since a lot of their information can be found on other sites pretty easily. I've also added another conservative site as a reference to the secular statement. Gary King (talk) 16:15, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Just to weigh in here... myself, I'm happy with specialist encyclopedia's such as The Canadian Encyclopedia, but would always look for a better source than a generalist encyclopedia such as Encarta. So all's well.
- Meanwhile, I'm about to plunge in with some copy-editing to the article. --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 00:56, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- You've sourced all versions of the lyrics except the Inuktitut. --01:19, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
- I can't find a source for that. Gary King (talk) 01:27, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
