[edit] Welcome
Again, welcome! - Meelar 05:20, 4 Feb 2004 (UTC)
I don't think some of those links make much sense. Melbourne, for example, is not the same thing as City of Melbourne. I think they should all be redircted to articles called City of X or Shire of X etc. Adam 08:40, 28 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Not meaning any disrespect, but when you add to the bus routes page, please make any new location names into wikilinks. Saves me the trouble of doing it later. Thankyou. Hypernovean 11:33, 3 Mar 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Melbourne articles
Hey there, I don't know if you've checked up on the WikiProject Melbourne recently, but a few of us have decided to adopt an article or two. The idea is to pick a lacking article and "be in charge" of it - do the research, writing, maybe even picture-taking. We're trying to build up the number of qualiy articles, instead of thinly-spread stubs. Don't feel you have to do anything :), but if you want, pick an article and add yourself to the list.

[edit] Article Licensing
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
[edit] Fußball-Bundesliga
Hi. We need articles written on Fußball-Bundesliga seasons from 1969/70 through 1975/76, in order to take them off the Wikipedia:Most wanted articles page! Since you've worked on related articles, I thought you might like to take a crack at it. Cheers! -- BD2412 talk 20:34, August 6, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Meetup in March
I see that you are listed as a participant in the WikiProject Melbourne. If you are a Melbourne resident I would appreciate your views on the suggested Meetup in March . Please give some indication of your interest, or otherwise, in the idea. Even a simple "No thanks" with your user name would be welcome and assist in assessing the level of support for a meetup. Thank you.. Cuddy Wifter 06:18, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Co-ops
Nice to see that there is a portal for co-ops and thus a home for the Toubeau article. I found it in articles in need of cleanup after translation but it is a very interesting piece of hidden history. There must be more stuff on the Belgian labour movement that should be in the 'pedia.

[edit] Request for Help - Thanks!
Basically, it's for... quite possibly one of the oddest plays to come out of the Victorian period, W. S. Gilbert's Charity. The whole thing is a Shavian analysis of the sexual double standard - how a woman, "fallen" once, is ostracised, but a man can actively corrupt women and be forgiven. Have a look at what we have so far: The plot's still a WIP, because the analysis is so interesting that we just had to do it. One just doesn't expect lines like "Heaven teaches that there is a pardon for every penitent. Earth teaches that there is one sin for which there is no pardon — when the sinner is a woman!" or "Think of any blameless woman whom you love and honour, and who is loved and honoured of all. Think of the shivering outcast whose presence is contamination, whose touch is horror unspeakable, whose very existance is an unholy stain on God's earth. Woman—loved, honoured, courted by all. Woman—shunned, loathed, and unutterably despised, but still—Woman." to come out of a Victorian drama, and, well, this is an article I want to get done right. And this means a short historical background of the Victorian sexual double standard. Adam Cuerden talk 15:48, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
