Welcome to World Naked Bike Ride! We hope you will contribute much and well. You will probably want to read the help pages. Again, welcome and have fun! Erik Baas 07:38, 29 June 2012 (PDT)

The year is not an insignificant detail.

I don't mean to be annoying by asking for the year, but I've been burned too many times assuming a Web site is up to date. Lots of Web sites haven't been updated for one or more years and the public can't tell whether it's up-to-date or not. The page says at the bottom when it was updated, but not which parts of that page were updated.

You can always check all edits by clicking on the "History" tab. - Erik Baas 13:30, 29 June 2012 (PDT)
Thank you, Erik! That is true.
However, it shows disrespect to all the readers to expect them to go to all that trouble searching, and which some will not know how to do. Can you ask whoever originally posted the announcement henceforth to include the year and the day of the week in all event announcements, not just the month and date? Korky Day

Vancouver

Good point. However, this is not nice. :-(

You could have done what I did: read the history of the page, and see that the latest edits were about the year 2012. I didn't know that, we have to rely on people from that city (ic. Vancouver) to update the information. - Erik Baas 16:06, 16 April 2013 (PDT)

Re. your email: I checked the history of "Vancouver" and found these edits: [1] (11 July 2012) and [2] (19 July 2012). The diff's clearly show it's about 2012. - Erik Baas 16:03, 25 April 2013 (PDT)

Yes, I could have done more work, but I was tired of Conrad's "not nice" neglect of my much earlier request, and so I thought I'd give him a little friendly nudge. It was not bad enough to call " not nice. :-( " in my opinion. And I want to prevent it happening in future. But I don't know you, Erik, and Conrad and I know each other, so that makes a difference. Sorry if I was over the line, but I don't think so.
