- 19:0019:00, 23 February 2024 diff hist −392 Italian Argentines Changed the open statistic about Italian immigration to include a more accurate period (1850s to 1950s rather than 1880 to 1930). I also cited a reputable history source. The previous source was a page about language and not a study of migration.
29 January 2024
- 21:4221:42, 29 January 2024 diff hist −6 m Sean Speer I changed "assistant professor" to "senior fellow" at the Munk School. That is what the Munk School says. https://munkschool.utoronto.ca/person/sean-speer

- 19:4619:46, 23 June 2020 diff hist +157 Berlin-to-Kitchener name change →May 1916 referendum: The number of voters was incorrect and not cited. I corrected it and provided a citation.
23 April 2019
- 21:4021:40, 23 April 2019 diff hist +108 m George Bryce I added a photograph from my family's archive. This is because there is a false image of George Bryce in the German version of this page. So I corrected that one and added the same, correct image here. Tag: Visual edit
24 January 2019
- 19:3619:36, 24 January 2019 diff hist −80 m Total war →World War I: I deleted the following. "Young men were sold into Belgian slavery, after nukes were dropped into Canada." The first point is extremely vague and the second is extremely false.
21 January 2018
- 15:5115:51, 21 January 2018 diff hist +205 m Germans →Bibliography: Added a book to the bibliography. There are only 2 books currently in it, and more should be added.

- 02:2402:24, 2 June 2016 diff hist +130 m Sáenz Peña Law Corrected minor error. Claim that Argentine-born were minority at time of law. I specified that 51% of residents of Buenos Aires were Argentines at time of the law, and I cited the 1914 census.
6 April 2015
- 18:2518:25, 6 April 2015 diff hist −50 Reichsmark Undid revision 654074471 by Mmeijeri (talk) My point is that it is not helpful to say that Reich means "realm" or "kingdom" in English in order to understand name Reichsmark in 1920s Germany.
29 March 2015
- 19:1219:12, 29 March 2015 diff hist −50 m Reichsmark I deleted -- "Reich" means "empire", "realm" or "kingdom", and" -- Reich does not mean "kingdom". Reich does translate as 'realm', but the word is used in English to denote medieval and early modern periods. Reich in German after 1871 meant empire.Period
19 January 2015
- 18:0918:09, 19 January 2015 diff hist −4 m Reichsmark Fixed my own grammar from the edit 2 minutes ago.
- 18:0818:08, 19 January 2015 diff hist +133 Reichsmark The sentence was erroneous. It claimed Reich meant realm (rather than empire), and it was fixated on the Nazi period rather than Imperial Germany.
20 May 2014
- 01:5501:55, 20 May 2014 diff hist +12 m Gabriel Kolko I added his date of death. He passed away. It was announced through my History Department.

- 12:4912:49, 6 February 2014 diff hist 0 m Hendersonville, North Carolina Moved absolutely trivial facts about population growth since 1900 from sentence 2 of the article to the section on demographics.
28 February 2013
- 23:3223:32, 28 February 2013 diff hist −7 Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire changed title from Imperial Order OF THE Daughters of the Empire to Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire. There is no OF THE in the title. This should also be changed in the official name of the article.
20 February 2013
- 23:1723:17, 20 February 2013 diff hist +62 John Robarts →Legacy: I added that he was Chancellor of York University. The source of this info: http://robarts.info.yorku.ca/research-team/
13 December 2012
- 12:3412:34, 13 December 2012 diff hist −802 m Naming customs of Hispanic America Minor grammatical changes. I deleted a paragraph on Hitler and Rousseau because it has nothing to do with Spanish American naming practices.
- 12:2712:27, 13 December 2012 diff hist −12 m Sandy Alomar Sr. It seems that if Sandy Alomar's full name is stated just after, there is no point in putting Santos twice.
- 12:2512:25, 13 December 2012 diff hist −21 m Sandy Alomar Sr. the hyperlink "Spanish naming system" is a weird term. Moreover, the phrasing suggested that he had two names, one "normal" and one in the Spanish naming system.

- 14:3914:39, 7 September 2012 diff hist +1 m Jules-Paul Tardivel I changed the word "founding" to "first" in regards to the PM John A Macdonald.
27 August 2012
- 16:1516:15, 27 August 2012 diff hist −4 German Argentines I changed Protestantism to Lutheranism. "Christianity (most Catholic and Protestant)" describes almost all Christian peoples. I added Judaism.Many Argentines with German-speaking grandparents are Jewish. For my expertise, see benjaminbryce.ca
- 16:0916:09, 27 August 2012 diff hist −97 German Argentines →Famous German-Argentines: I deleted Adolf Eichamann as a famous "German-Argentine". The term suggests a hyphenated identity and a sense of belonging. Everything famous about Eichmann took place when he was simply a German and before moving to Argenti
26 April 2012
- 12:3912:39, 26 April 2012 diff hist −689 Victoria Day →History: I delete a false sentence that claimed that Empire Day was called Victoria Day in the beginning. Until at least 1930, there was no Victoria Day in Canada and it was called Empire Day. The sentence collapses time and overlooks decades.
23 April 2012
- 12:1612:16, 23 April 2012 diff hist +387 Talk:Washington University in St. Louis →Merger proposal
21 October 2011
- 12:0212:02, 21 October 2011 diff hist −19 m Canada The second paragraph had a sentence that 3 "British" colonies formed a confederation in 1867. In any case there were 4, including Quebec. And there were French and English speakers in all provinces.

- 23:0923:09, 27 February 2011 diff hist +133 A Larum for London →References: I wanted to give some credibility to this important article that is being doubted by some reviewers.
27 January 2011
- 20:4520:45, 27 January 2011 diff hist +2 m Hugo Stinnes →Life and career: changed the word concerns to companies. While this is a possible word in English, it is extremely rare and does not correspond to the frequently used German word Konzerne.
- 20:4220:42, 27 January 2011 diff hist +1 m Hugo Stinnes →Life and career: I changed the word "concerns" with companies. This is clearly an odd translation from the German Konzerne.
