[edit]If 'the summit is entirely within Labrador', what is the highest point on the slope within Quebec? Would that not be Quebec's highest point? Radagast 02:33, Sep 15, 2004 (UTC)
Article title
[edit]I think this should be moved to Mont D'Iberville (with Mount Caubvik as the redirect) because D'Iberville is the only name recognized by the federal geographic names authority: see http://geonames2.nrcan.gc.ca/cgi-bin/v6/sima_unique_v6?english?EJKLN?C . Searching for "Caubvik" at their site returns no hits: http://geonames.nrcan.gc.ca/search/search_e.php . Indefatigable 01:25, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC)
possible copyvio problem
[edit]This seems mightly close -- almost word-for-word -- to the text available from here. --Stéphane Charette 03:36, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Name, again
[edit]Why, again, is this at Caubvick? Googling English sites, one get 979 hits for "Mount Caubvick", 785 for "Mt Caubvick", whereas an English-language search for "Mont d'Iberville" turns out 18 100 results, which is something like a 10:1 ratio. Given that both names have official recognition (eg, they both come up in the geographic database of the federal government), and that both names are official, I fail to see why the far less commonly used name is the one that Wikipedia uses for its article title. Either way, the statement that the name "Mont d'Iberville" is an alternate name specific to Quebec is highly dubious (particularly as its the older name)--Guillaume Hébert-Jodoin (talk) 19:12, 15 September 2009 (UTC) I agree. I have lived in Canada my whole life and have never even heard of Mt. Caubvick, whereas Mt. Iberville is common. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.14.247.18 (talk) 18:24, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
- The article is probably called Mount Caubvick because the summit of the mountain is located in Labrador, where Caubvick is the official name. Maybe you just haven't traveled to the right locations in Canada to hear anyone call it Mount Caubvick. Also, Google search results aren't the best ways to back up information on Wikipedia. —Reelcheeper (talk) 03:51, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
