Re
Yes my mistake, sorry about that, I have been working on the List of documentary films here on my user space. I have been double check every documentary I add to the table. you will be surprised how many articles I have come across that have listed the executive producers, senior producers etc as well as the wrong director or co-directors as directors and such. It's good that you picked that up. I do not know what projects you are doing at the moment but I would like to ask if you want to help me out. It is a very time consuming job as I am trying to get it to featured list.-- intraining  Jack In  08:32, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Issue

 * 2 Bobs worth - leave a message at his article talk page that is not the correct procedure (ie ignore dont reply rubbish) - point him to


 * OTRS (if there is a particular issue that he has genuine legal issue with)
 * Point him to WP NOT and a few others that might point out that WP is not vanity publishing like most whos whos - (try telling me they are not) - but public record material.
 * Point out what Hesp has said - if you live in the public domain and write poetry you gotta take the public flack whether you like it or not

Left at sterry's talk as well - if neither of youse folks do it I will - such a bland lack of understanding of what wikipedia is shows that it needs to be resonded to. cheers SatuSuro 13:06, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

The Vincent Buckley Prize
No worries. Actually I only added the poetry project and I don't know if anybody there cares, but somebody may take an interest someday. Nice to see you there too, representing the non-nerds.--Grahame (talk) 12:23, 10 February 2009 (UTC)

Lighthouses
If you are writing articles on lighthouses you should be aware of the excellent "From Dusk till Dawn" subsidised by my old department for the bicentenary, which I have a copy of.--Grahame (talk) 07:04, 15 February 2009 (UTC)

Mathinna
Hello, Sterry2607 -- not sure I understand your thinking here -- if Flanagan's book, or any other, is to be cited in the entry as evidence of continuing interest in Mathinna, why wouldn't one want the publisher and ISBN at least? Certainly it's always seemed a strength of Wikipedia that one can quickly find a book that's mentioned or referenced. Clevelander96 (talk) 12:52, 22 February 2009 (UTC)

DYK nomination
Hi. I've nominated Tom Kruse (mailman), an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. Bruce1eetalk 05:33, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a pleasure. It may seem complicated, but if you have a look at Did you know, you'll see it's not that bad. You can nominate your own work at Template talk:Did you know‎, but please have a look at the DYK rules first. --Bruce1eetalk 08:21, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:47, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

You're invited to the Canberra WikiMeetup on 20 November 2011
Hi! We're having a Canberra Wikimeetup on 20 November 2011 at Siren Bar in Gunghalin from 2pm to 4pm. It's most just a chance to chat with other local Wikipedians, get a chance to go a different sort of bar (which is reasonably kid friendly, serves real food, and has non-alcholic options), and, if you're interested, learning more about what Wikimedia Australia and local GLAM projects are happening. We'd love to see you and any Wikipedia/Wikimedia/wiki loving friends you have there. --LauraHale (talk) 07:22, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia
Hi, WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

since we lost perry middlemiss last year the oz lit project has been quiet - good to see youre around all these years later !! JarrahTree 07:22, 8 April 2019 (UTC)


 * thanks jarrah. How very nice to hear from you - I really appreciate your noticing. I have been doing a little bit every now and then (including creating an article a year or so ago on Ali Cobby Eckermann) but time is really tight. (Particularly since I stupidly started a LitBlog.) I keep hoping to get back to more serious article creation rather than editing existing articles because I enjoyed it immensely. What do you mean "lost perry middlemiss"?

I'm doing other things at present, mainly with the Austlit database, but may be back here at some point. Perry


 * Thanks Perry - glad you found the comment. So AustLit? Are you volunteering there? Sterry2607 (talk) 12:39, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
