Happy New Year
all the best for the new year - something odd about any thoughts? JarrahTree 10:23, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * They seem to be a good faith newbie. Most of their edits are improvements, except the Claisebrook ones which I have fixed (although TBF, the adjacent stations template on many articles is a mess and they are probably copying from some other station article). I have now realised though that many of the Armadale line stations have not had their Adjacent stations template updated. Steelkamp (talk) 10:40, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the fix and explanation - always appreciated! JarrahTree 10:47, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Merge
I would agree, but the comments I would like to make are out of order here. Trust you are keeping cool. JarrahTree 12:47, 12 February 2024 (UTC)


 * No objection from me either — I was just in Perth this week (family stuff), omg it was so dry and hot! The Scarborough Beach sunset was very pretty and relaxing though. When I came back to Sydney the other day, I couldn’t deal with our humidity lol! I took a few photos of the Transperth ferries that might be nicer than the current ones used for their respective articles, I might upload them to Commons soon when I’m bothered. Fork99 (talk) 14:18, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * I realised those pages should be merged during my research for my rewriting of Rail transport in Western Australia. After rewriting that, I think I will tackle rewriting Western Australian Government Railways. New photos are always welcome, especially if they are an improvement on the current ones. Steelkamp (talk) 14:57, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
 * reply should be merged is your claim - I do not believe that a number of western australian instrumentalities that had various incarnations over time require a compressed single article.  There are a number of iterations that deserve separate articles, otherwise the one article fits all is insufficient to explicate a range of issues. WP:AGF prevents an extended explanation.

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter
The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to, who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Message from Signalscadd
Hi Steelkamp, The temperatures for Australia in Wikipedia showing the highest being in 1960 is incorrect. That’s false adverting. Sorry to say. As mentioned there are a number of high temp going back to 1889 at 53.1c, 1877 at Bourke NSW, 50.8c in 1906 Mildura. These figures are in documents from the Bureau of Meteorology is the source. So what’s happened to those figures? Regards Paul — Preceding unsigned comment added by Signalscadd (talk • contribs) 08:36, 18 March 2024 (UTC)


 * See my message at Talk:List of extreme temperatures in Australia. The same applies to the Bourke and Mildura records. These records are not recognised by the Bureau of Meteorology due to various problems. The official records are at, which shows the Australian temperature record is 50.7 C, which was recorded at Onslow and Oodnadatta. Steelkamp (talk) 09:48, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

TFL notification
Hi, Steelkampt. I'm just posting to let you know that List of Sydney Metro stations – a list that you have been heavily involved with – has been chosen to appear on the Main Page as Today's featured list for April 12. The TFL blurb can be seen here. If you have any thoughts on the selection, please post them on my talk page or at TFL talk. Regards, Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:28, 18 March 2024 (UTC)

IP edit
I disagree with your edit summary, made up is hardly something that an IP with no understanding of RS and citations is likely to have as motivation - the actual information can be probably confirmed or denied by the endless metronet PR items that pop up everywhere - the whole Midland development PR machine and the reality of the very disconnected parking station (and totally ahistorical new station being built in the core of the whole states railway life from the first world war to the 1980s) JarrahTree 01:58, 25 March 2024 (UTC)


 * As far as I'm aware, there has been no public announcement or information saying that the Midland will have an extended shutdown in late 2024 and early 2025. Maybe that IP editor has some kind of insider information. Maybe they are speculating. Maybe they are just making it up. Either way, it had to be reverted. Steelkamp (talk) 02:03, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Maybe, the problem with lack of knowledge on the part of the IP as to how wp works does not detract from the problem with the metronet publicity machine as a purveyor of 'what they want us to know' versus the on the track knowledge of the works in Midland - I imagine a local in Midland who reads 'the echo' on a regular basis is better placed than web based info gathering. (oops I forgot the echo is also online, and checking, does carry material of direct relevance) JarrahTree 02:15, 25 March 2024 (UTC)


 * BTW congrats on getting to 15k edits! a veritable milestone in just a few edits to go! JarrahTree 02:18, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Looks like I've passed it now. Steelkamp (talk) 13:31, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

small problem
with the expansion of charlie C and the JT articles - the linked to Joe Chamberlain article - created as a bare bones stub, is a problem no wonder the various stages of Joe's career are not clear to you or anyone else, he was always known as the union heavyweight (RS or no RS) and stalwart and the person to whom one needed to be on side with. The JC article does a disservice to the politics of the 60s, as much as the Bessie Rischbeith and Mounts Bay Road articles are inadequate in the explanation of the reclamation issues on the north west corner of Perth Water... however a very helpful adb item exists (https://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/chamberlain-francis-edward-joe-12304 bobbies version) and if read carefully should address your uncertainty as to the power wielder that he was...JarrahTree 07:15, 21 April 2024 (UTC)

Bayswater Railway Station
Hey I noticed you reverted my edits? The bus interchange is literally open right now, so why does it still use past tense? RexTransit05 (talk) 00:29, 24 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Your edits weren't just changing the tense. They were changing the formatting of that section as well, changing a well sourced and written paragraph into a group of unsourced and disjointed sections. Steelkamp (talk) 01:24, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
 * well if you visit Bayswater station you'll see the stands and what routes are on there. RexTransit05 (talk) 01:42, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Every other major station with an interchange on this Wikipedia lists the bus stands RexTransit05 (talk) 01:43, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

A request
Hi Steelkamp, I noticed you created Template:Thornlie line and wondered if you could do something similar for the former Donnybrook–Katanning railway? I found this source (page 9-10) which has the sidings and distances listed. It seems to be sourced from old time tables. I presume the distances are in miles, given that it is from a UK source. I had a look at the code for the route map template and it looks quite complicated, above my skill level. I'm not expecting you to make up the whole thing, if you could just have the start (Donnybrook) and end station (Katanning) and two in betweens (Yabberup & Glen Mervyn), I'm hopeful I can add the others once I see how it is done. If you feel up to the task, just place it in User:Calistemon/Sandbox1, and I will take it from there. No rush and no obligation, just if you feel like you got a bit of time. Calistemon (talk) 04:25, 17 July 2024 (UTC)


 * Sure, I would be happy to do that. I recently learned how to make those route diagrams just so I can make more of them. There is a better source available for distances, at https://pta.wa.gov.au/Portals/15/AA_DOCUMENTS/Our_system/Freight%20network/PTA%20Rail%20Network%20Map_2019.pdf which I will use. Steelkamp (talk) 04:50, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Cheers! The map you linked to is phantastic! Sadly, it doesn't seem to cover the stations/sidings between Donnybrook and Wilga. Calistemon (talk) 04:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * I also found this 1952 map and this handy list of stations. Calistemon (talk) 05:03, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Needless to say the pta material is ahistorical whereas the geoproject item is probably the most definitive source possible for wa items. However the item has a major problem compared to the national item now almost 25 years gone -https://trove.nla.gov.au/work/35620594?keyword=australian%20railway%20routes - whereas geoproject has locations coords, it doesnt have closing dates like quinlan and newland...
