== History ==
Quails’ Gate was founded by the Stewarts, one of the Okanagan’s pioneer horticultural families. Richard John Stewart arrived in the Okanagan Valley from County Kildare, [[Ireland]] in 1908. He and his 2 brothers purchased several parcels of land and established nurseries. In 1956, his son Richard Stewart acquired the Allison Ranch on which the winery now sits and started planting vines along with fruit orchards. His son Ben, a banker by trade started working at Quails’ Gate in the 1980s. In 1989, the family abandoned the orchards and focused the properties on producing wine, relaunching the business as Quails’ Gate Estate Winery. In 1992, Richards' other son, Tony, left his career as a stockbroker to return to the family business.<ref>http://www.amazon.ca/Wineries-British-Columbia-John-Schreiner/dp/1552856038/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1199759906&sr=8-4 John Schreiner p.268</ref> Tony now runs the business still privately held by the Stewart family.

== Winemaker ==
[[Vancouver]] native Grant Stanley learned his winemaking skills in [[New Zealand]] at [[Montana Wines]] and Ata Rangi Wines before returning to North America in 2001. Over the next 2 years, he refined his skills in growing [[Pinot Noir]] at several [[Oregon]] wineries before taking the position of winemaker at Quails’ Gate in 2003.<ref>http://www.amazon.ca/Wineries-British-Columbia-John-Schreiner/dp/1552856038/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1199759906&sr=8-4 John Schreiner p.269</ref> To date, his vintages have won over 50 medals in regional, national and international competitions.<ref>[http://www.quailsgate.com/documents/AwardsbyproductCURRENT_008.pdf Awards & Honourary Achievements<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>

== [[GroupSwim]] Deletion ==
Greetings - I saw that you deleted the GroupSwim entry I submitted/created because it was advertising. My company, a publicly traded investment firm, is piloting GroupSwim and it shows a lot of promise. GroupSwim has a unique and effective approach to helping us gauge client sentiment. Note that GroupSwim was my second Wikipedia post. My first post, Balsamiq, was also deleted because it lacked "significance" (Balsamiq is a groundbreaking tool for allowing non-technical users easily create mockups). How do you evaluate advertising versus significance? I also see posts on other software applications (e.g. Apple Mail) so is significance based on widespread adoption or something genuinely unique?

== Hagger articles landing on my watchlist ==

NawlinWiki, a while ago I asked you how various Hagger vandalism articles could have ended up on my watchlist, and as you remember, you didn't know how, but asked me to tell you if I found out. Well, a little while ago I figured out how the articles got there, and the explanation is actually rather simple: those articles got there because articles already on my watchlist were being moved by Grawp and then those new article titles remained on my watchlist after it happened, because when an article that's on your watchlist gets moved, the new title is added to the list, and remains even if it's deleted. Far simpler then I had suspected at the time.--[[User:LWF|LWF]] ([[User talk:LWF|talk]]) 04:51, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you'd deleted this page citing vandalism, and restored it soon after. I checked the page and could see no sign of recent vandalism, though an IP had posted an extensive list of Prince's songs which another editor removed.
