Canolfan Tryweryn
I noticed that you have been involved in creating the Afon Tryweryn article, and would like to inform you that I intend to merge the article with my newly created Canolfan Tryweryn article, unless you have any objections. DevAnubis 12:46, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

River Lee
Hi Jamsta.Thankyou for your contributions.Sorry if I sound picky.But your new template weirs and locks on the Lee seem confusing.Would it be better if they were separated.I might have to re write some of our articles.Please let me know If you aren't happy with that,but as you know the Lee Valley is a complicated area.Your photographs are very good can you add some more please? Cheers Northmetpit 11:46, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Locks and Weirs on the Thames
Hi James .Yes ,that's very impressive.Hope we can achieve something as good as that for the Lee.You might have seen that I have added couple more minor Lee tributaries, but I think there are others.Ian Northmetpit 11:03, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Somerset rivers
Hi, I see you've started an article on the West Lyn River & I've just added the WikiProject Somerset banner & assessment (you are v welcome to join the project). I was wondering seeing as you seem to be expert in rivers whether you could do the rivers River Isle & River Washford both of which are in Somerset but I can't find enough info to start articles?&mdash; Rod talk 13:00, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

River Thames
Thanks Jamsta - very much appreciated especially from you. In fact I was going to make the same comment in light of your Kayaking in the Thames. Incidentally I was at Shepperton and noticed the poles, but I dont think you would have gone out in the Red Board conditions photographed as at Lock Island. Motmit (talk) 23:13, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Jamsta - You might not be aware that there is a user Hellno2 who is currently having a go at canoeing, particularly organisations - with templates, deletion nominations etc. I am not sure how involved you are in some of the activities but you may have a view.

River Lee Navigation Locks and Weirs template
Hi Jamsta. Hope you are OK. Most of the Navigation locks have been covered now. But I've found Bow Locks a mystery it is clearly signed as No 20 as this photo proves Bow Locks, but isn't included in the template. Shall I include it? Your thoughts please. Thanks Northmetpit (talk) 06:26, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

list of Artificial Whitewater Slalom Courses
Hello Jamsta. I see you are interested in this topic. You took down the imported text of the Adventure Sports Center International article. I am putting together a list of all such courses which is temporarily posted at User:HowardMorland/Sandbox. My goal is to include all the courses on the regular international competition circuit. Unaltered riverbed courses don't seem to be used in international competition, but if there are any I would have to decide whether to include them (and rename the list). Eventually each course in the list should get its own article.

Could you suggest any additions to the list, and places to get missing information about slope and streamflow? Thanks. HowardMorland (talk) 18:35, 24 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Got your message. I have responded on my talk page. HowardMorland (talk) 20:51, 27 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Regarding the Canolfan Tryweryn question, I got the following reply to my email inquiry: Hello, Thanks for your enquiry, the Afon Tryweryn is a natural river so doesn't fit into your list. Good luck with all this project.

Template:Lee Navigation Route Map
Thanks for the edit. Looks like I was hunting for the name of the first weir and plucked it from the "Locks and Weirs on the River Lee, England" template - assuming (wrongly) that the first one is the top one. I now see it's the next one. I assume Horns Mill Weir must be further back up the unnavigable section. C'est la vie - lucky there's lots of editors watching over us.

Whitewater Course Geobox Templates etc
Thanks for your offer of help regarding the whitewater course pages. I only intended doing it for the Teesside White Water course as I am interested in all things Teesside. However if you want to adopt and adapt the templates for other courses then do not let me stop you. I cannot claim originality as these are adaptations of existing templates.

White Water Course Infoboxes
The White Water Course Infobox template is available on: Template:Infobox_whitewater_course/doc or you could simply copy the one on Teesside White Water Course and adapt. I made a few changes recently but I will leave it alone now.

White Water Course route map template
These can be copied from: Template:Teesside_White_Water_Course_map adapted and saved under a new template name for each course. Suitable icons can be selected from this repository: Template:Waterways_legend.

If the icon you want is not available in the repository then you can create it by modifying an existing icon with Inkscape (freeware). It is best to deposit any new icons in the above repository then others can use it and they can avoid duplicating the work. It is an excellent idea (read essential idea) to decide on the name of your new .svg file first, and exactly where you are going to put it in the repository, as otherwise you will almost certainly have to rename it to get it there. This wasn't easy but if you hit any roadblocks then get back in touch. Stuffed cat (talk) 17:18, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
