Climate data
Just so you know, what you are calling "mistakes in the temperature data" is just slightly out-of-date data. They aren't mistakes, the average temperature changes as more data is collected over the years. Also, I recommend that you update the source access date when updating the data.

 * no worries. Sorry I'm still very new to this and will include citations next time Paddy234 (talk) 08:58, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

== Citation updates please ==

Hi. Thanks for all your recent updates of climate data. Just wondering whether you could possibly also update or add citations when necessary, rather than just putting a URL in the edit summary. There are a couple of reasons for this. Firstly, it saves someone else having to do it afterwards (as for example, I did with this Adelaide edit). Secondly, it decreases the chance of your edits being mistaken for subtle vandalism. If you're unfamiliar with markup language needed, there's a good basic example here. Thanks, Meticulo (talk) 07:55, 2 July 2023 (UTC)

Ignore my post. Steelkamp beat me to it, and has said it more succinctly, hence strikethrough. Cheers, Meticulo (talk) 07:58, 2 July 2023 (UTC)


 * No worries. Thank you for the heads up. I'll add citations in thr future. Cheers Paddy234 (talk) 08:58, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Hey, I just noticed the Citations on the climate paged I edited with both Adelaide and Perth are still valid. All I did was update the table data however the reference to the climate data is still relevant. Do I still need to add a citation when I edit data or can i simply edit the data and people can at least see in the references section that the Bom citation is still relevant?
