Wikipedia survey
Hi. I'm doing a survey of Wikipedia editors as part of a class research project. It's quick, anonymous, and the data will be made available to the Wikipedia community later this month. Would you like to take part? More info here. Thanks! Nonplus 00:10, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Disabled access on CityRail stations
I don't think you need to put how much each station is staffed for the purposes of disabled access - if the station offers it in some form a simple yes or no should be enough for the table. If it needs to be spelled out that the statioon is not staffed from first to last train, write it in the article. We don't want articles that are empty because all the information is in the station info box. (JROBBO 10:45, 17 April 2006 (UTC))

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 14:01, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

Morriset Station Picture
Any chance you could re-upload the pic of Morriset station? It wasn't great but it was better than no picture at all. I'd like to fix up the page and a picture would be good. (JROBBO 10:52, 8 July 2006 (UTC))
 * Unfortunately, no. I live in Wagga Wagga and don't have a car or a license so it's nearly impossible for me to take one. The picture was from http://nswrail.net/locations/photo.php?name=NSW:Morisset:1 and unless we have rights to be able to use it, we can't. Harryboyles 11:13, 8 July 2006 (UTC)


 * If it was a copyright violation then that's fine - I thought it was your own picture, and I certainly didn't expect you to take another one! I'll leave it be. (JROBBO 11:15, 8 July 2006 (UTC))

Image:OatleyR1.gif
Do you have a higher qualiy version that you can upload. The gif format is not suited to photographs. JPEG would be better. Harryboyles 05:53, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I do. Thanks for the feedback. I'll make sure I upload them in the jpeg format in future.J Bar 06:00, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Much, much better :-) Harryboyles 06:16, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
 * No worries.J Bar 06:21, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request
This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 22:11, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Userbox deletion
You can delete WP:GUS'd userboxes once transclusion is done via speedy deletion instead of "clogging" up the templates for deletion. There is a specific criteria that allows this for uncontroversial housekeeping (G6). I personally use the following code to speedy delete templates:

Reason: Orphaned due to Userbox migration, all instances of transclusion moved to new location.

This helps speed up the process. Harryboyles 11:19, 14 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Hi, I'm already using (since a few days) for userfied ubx. However, there are some ubx that were up for deletion before or that have transclusion links on protected pages. I thought they might not fall under criteria for speedy deletion. --Bisco 11:26, 14 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Sorry about that. It was from about a week ago that I was referring to. Good work by the way :) Harryboyles</b> 11:31, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Changed user box
Hi there,

Just wondered about the change you made to the user box on my talk page. Could you tell me why you made the change? That way, if I did something the wrong way, I'll know not to do it again.

Thanks!

use of StatusTemplate
Hi, I copied your StatusTemplate in my Italian page it:Utente:Wiso. I have a question: how do you change your status (in/studying...), manually? Maybe it's possibile to use the monobook.js. --WISo 13:12, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Now on my Italian page I have a java script thath implement semi-auto set status. If you are interested to develop: it:Utente:Wiso/monobook.js. There is a bug: when the second window opens, click one more time on set status. --WISo 23:23, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
