[edit] Resolution Cove?

"In March, 1778, Captain James Cook arrived, with HMS Resolution and Discovery, in Resolution Cove and claimed . . ." Isn't it Friendly Cove? See Nootka Sound.KenWalker | Talk 09:33, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Indeed. Also King George III not William IV who didn't reign until 51 years after Cook was killed! --Keefer4 09:42, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

I've read the whole page and noticed numerous factual errors and spelling errors (ie: dates of Royal Visits, the above, provincial name mis-spelled, name of Schools named after their respective CITY not straight after the Royals). I have changed the rating to B Class, and will take on editing some of these errors shortly.--Keefer4 03:12, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

The spelling errors would be my own carelessness. However, I see nothing wrong with the Royal Visit dates, taken from the Department of Canadian Heritage's lists. The names of schools is debatable; Prince George Secondary School is still named after Prince George, even if it is via the city of Prince George.

Of course, any improvement to the article is greatly appreciated! --G2bambino 16:03, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

Ok, the only ommission I noticed when it came to visits was Diana's in 1986 with Charles, when I saw them in Victoria. I originally thought that the 1985 visit noted for her was a mistake, but I see they did stop over, so my apologies. I'll just clean that part up, I see my colleague KenWalker has already corrected the King George/Friendly Cove stuff. All in all I should have added that it was quite a thorough article too :). The schools thing is debatable, but not enough of a deal to remove them probably. ANyway, just thought I'd add that.--Keefer4 22:38, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
