Hi team!

We are RMIT students from RMIT and are having fun using this site! One of our assignments for a core subject is to create a Wiki article about Minifie Van Schaik. Like most university assignments we are stretched for time so I'm hoping you can help me out with a number of things.

1. I've noticed on the editing page that anything that's highlighted in Pink doesn't appear on the page. Is there an error? or is this just yet to be approved?

2. We apologize for deleting the review messages you left for us! it took us some time to work out what they were. additionally, on our wiki page, under the sub heading of "Key Projects" we have listed the 3 projects you asked us to remove. We are meant to discuss these projects in relation to the Architectural firm and there for it would definitely seem biased. Were you referring to the 3 paragraphs we have under that sub heading or the 3 additional pages we had created previously(however have now been deleted)?

Thanks for your patience and time.

Gabbie.
 * Hi there, welcome to Wikipedia.

1. I'm not entirely certain what you mean by the parts highlighted in pink. If you're referring to the missing text at the end of the Projects List, that is being caused by a missing tag. You opened the reference there with a.

2. It's alright that you removed the notices, it was an honest mistake. Those messages were referring to the three additional pages you created (though only two have been deleted, Victorian College of the Arts Centre for Ideas is still up as I write this). The page that's still up is completely unsourced, however, and may not be up much longer. Every Wikipedia article needs reliable, independent sources to show that the subject is notable.

Now, there's something else which I have to bring to your attention. Wikipedia's policy outlined here specifically forbids shared accounts. You should each create your own account for you as an individual, and stop using the current one. You'll still be able to edit the sandbox page where it is now. You most likely weren't aware of the policy, and I'm sure you didn't do it maliciously, but now you know.

Hope this all helps! Feel free to ask more questions here if you have them. Howicus (Did I mess up?) 01:02, 9 May 2014 (UTC)
