[edit] G'day!
G'day there, Blu3d, and welcome to Wikipedia! Good authors are always welcome on the project, and I hope you like the place and decide to stick around!
Sometimes new editors find it useful to review our "five pillars", all you need to know about editing in "wiki markup", or this detailed tutorial. The stuff we all really need to know is best summed up here: write from a neutral point of view, play nice with others, and don't let the rules get you down. If you have any questions or need any help, my talkpage is always open for business, or you can see Wikipedia:Newcomers help page. Here's a tip to start you off: if you type four tildes (~~~~) at the end of any messages you leave on talkpages (like this one) Wikipedia will automatically insert your name and the current date and time after your message. Cool, eh?
By the way, I'm going to take a punt in the dark and say you're Australian. If so, excellent! Aussies make good Wikipedians (yes, oh yes, we do). You may be interested in Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board, where Australian Wikipedians occasionally meet to try to help coordinate our efforts. Again, welcome to the project, and happy editing! fuddlemark (befuddle me!) 10:08, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the welcome. I'm familiar with mediawiki (I use it at work, for a technical wiki), but am relatively new to wikipedia's extensive guidelines and subprojects and etc. Just taking things nice and slowly, touching on the more obvious things that need fixing (so that I don't tread on too many toes just yet) =) Blu3d 15:49, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Railway Station
Thank you for your pic of Wiley Park station. We don't have many Bankstown Line station pictures so yours will help immensely. Thanks. (JROBBO 07:11, 8 August 2006 (UTC))
- There's more coming, (depending on when I have the time to stop off before work on days I start in the middle of the day).Blu3d 08:05, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Warrent -> Warrant?
As per this edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Deutsch_Limit&diff=68140576&oldid=61815872 The character combination Warrent is a typo that could also mean Warren, and not just Warrant. Blu3d 07:20, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- You're right - I messed this one up. Thanks for finding it and correcting it. AWB had warrent->warrant in its search list and I didn't check carefully enough before accepting the suggested change. Cheers. Euchiasmus 07:26, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Belmore, New South Wales
Hiya, the images you've lumped into the Belmore, New South Wales article are okay in Internet Explorer, but they definitely break things like the table of contents in opera/mozilla/firefox (images overlap it). Don't know if you were just dropping it there and planning to fix it later so I'll leave it to you. And also, with your train station pics, you should beware of harsh sunlight - those overexposed roofs really hurt the quality of the pic. Otherwise, keep up the pic-snapping =) -Blu3d 08:09, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tips. I'll try and fix up the Belmore page. It was unfortunate, that the railway station pics were affected by the harsh sunlight but it was dependant on thetime I turned up there. I drove past the area that day and decided to take a few snaps of a few suburbs. I have some more photo to load from around the Canterbury area. If I get another chance, I'll drop by again and take some more pics to try and improve on them. :) Cheers. J Bar 22:31, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
