[edit] Country areas

Hi Daniel! First off, welcome to our project. Secondly, you might want to look at something I was working on before I got distracted by other things - Template:Towns Wheatbelt South WA has a list of towns. The ones in the top row should be OK as I've been through those (though by all means if you have anything good to put in, do so) but the bottom row, I think at most three of them are done to any sort of acceptable standard. While by no means prescriptive, Wandering, Western Australia has a pretty reasonable format to it that you can use as a template if you like.

Also if you want to have a look at Harvey, Western Australia - I worked on it and asked for a review, and some serious issues were raised with it- they can be found in the talk page for the article. The articles for Collie, Katanning, Cranbrook, Tambellup and Kojonup are also below par if I recall. So lots to be getting on with!

If you need my help at any time just give me a shout, or drop a message on the talk page so the other project people can see it. I've found the lot of them to be very helpful - even if you just want one of us to review what you've done on an article. My specialty is towns and geographic areas - other people have other areas that they're no doubt crying out for assistance on as well, so if you have a spot of time don't hesitate to ask :) Good luck with it. Orderinchaos78 12:33, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Seeing as you seem to be looking at some other areas of the wheatbelt as well, I might try and generate the remaining Wheatbelt LGAs (local government areas), and get the LGA boxes out of the towns so you can work on them unencumbered. There's been a consensus for a few months that shire councils should be called "Shire of..." or "City of..." and be a separate article from their main town.

[edit] Welcome to WP:WA

Thanks for your messages on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Western Australia. You can also, if you wish, add your name to Wikipedia:WikiProject Western Australia#Participants. User:Hesperian and many others started it off only recently, so we are still developing the project.

Look around and what needs attention in WA articles and start adding to them. There are many helpful wikipedians on the project already, the 'admins' especially. I can only give basic help, but am happy to. I am new enough here to remember the best starting points for editing. I also recommend countering systematic bias, WP:CSB.

Look forward to your edits. Fred 16:10, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yeah

Offline (ie not on wiki) there is at times much gnashing of teeth and renting of garments (biblical analogies) over some of the more ridiculous edit/debates etc. However as wikipedia is a goldfishbowl (all can be rertrieved) some of our real feelings are suppressed while on wiki. Some issues get to the point of being laughable - as some ediotrs jump in where the wheel has been already invented. Patience and civility is important at all times - and sometimes talking and negotiationcan work even in the most ridiculous situations from my own experience so far. As for others talk pages - or user pages - we try to 'watch over' our friends - specially if they might be offline - so not much goes unseen - although some of us seem to see more than we really want! Hope you enjoy the place - its a very unreal place - make sure you get good doses of reality between times on - otherwise you might end up like me!  :) SatuSuro 13:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Towns in WA

You seemed to have started editing for similar reasons to me, but you have worked out a few things faster than I did. I should also mention Wikipedia:WikiProject Perth where I found lots of good editors. Searching recently through Category:Towns in Western Australia I noticed New Norcia, which may be a good example for you to see of a page evolving through different edits. Use the tables and boxes of good Town pages and edit the info to add to a stub. User:Orderinchaos78 is a very good for this subject. There quite a few others in WA who will also add to the article.


Copy and paste this into an article that needs expanding;

{{WesternAustralia-geo-stub}}

which automatically places it in Category: Western Australia geography stubs. The text

"This Western Australia geography article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it"

will appear in the article.

Re: WP:CSB, you make the point well yourself. The 'other country' in this case is WA. The largest state has not had enough attention as you have discovered. One reason could be that Australian history (hard copy - paper), etc., often contains little about WA. But I found the high level of cooperation by WA editors is making up for this.

Some projects form 'task forces' (not the best name) to tackle an issue or subject within their scope. I think you have started one. Let me know when the town page Nungarin is not a 'red link'. Regards Fred 11:11, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

I'd add to that that if you go to WP:IAP and follow the "Usage" instructions there. Name of town, state (entered as "wa" for WA) and postcode must be entered but all other fields are optional - if you leave them blank they simply won't appear. I'll give you some of my sites as well:
  • [1] will be your friend for the populations, although many small towns of course won't be listed there.
  • Ignore the elevation and climate fields unless they can be found here.
  • Fed electorates are here
  • State electorates are here - no search unfortunately but for the area you're doing, Avon, Merredin, Wagin, Roe and possibly Murchison-Eyre should include all of them.
  • Landgate can often give key clues about history and origin of name, although if it's contradicted by a book or other reliable source, believe them over this - they do make mistakes. (This is the same as the DLI or DOLA links you'll see on some - Landgate is their brand new name - I'm sure they'll think up another name change in 2008 to confuse and annoy us all).
  • Education Department provide info about all public schools, including foundation date (under Administration) and student numbers. Probably best to go to Advanced Search and select the town.
  • If a bus or train goes there TransWA has timetables on its site.
Hope these links help! Orderinchaos78 12:20, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
No worries. Re towns - If it's a very small town, the population might not be available. The first place I'd check is the shire's website (although note that shires are infamous for inflating their population statistics!), or alternatively let me know and I'll see if I can dig it out of the complex maze that is the ABS system. Two of the ones you have indicated an interest in doing, Trayning and Nungarin, are not listed. However, if you look at the Main Areas section, and click the little arrow on the shire name, and it will spit out meaningless looking numbers. One of those will have your population. Trayning's easy - the entire population is in 5040602 (I would link to the site that tells me that but it doesn't seem to allow direct links) - but I can't find a reliable population for Nungarin as (1) it doesn't have a Census Collection District, (2) the shire has no website and (3) other Google searches are returning nonsensical results. Unless you find it in a published reliable source it may be that you need to leave this field blank. If you need to find the CCD for any other town let me know. Orderinchaos78 12:44, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mukinbudin

  1. Distances - where it says "dist1" and "location1" - just copy that line and change the parameters to "dist2" and "location2"
  2. [2] gives you geographic coordinates for any Australian location.
  3. Will look at Shire of Mukinbudin today.

[edit] Roads

Yeah that should be fine. If you could do me a favour and keep a list of any ones you work on, I'll look at them later. Also please note we use ", Perth" for anything that isn't a highway. This helps us organise the articles at a later stage. Thanks :) Orderinchaos78 18:03, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

How this might best work is if we run it as a mini project and divide up the work. If you could do the following I'd be most grateful. I thought using ", Rockingham" for entries entirely within the City of Rockingham, given quite a few roads are, seemed to make sense.
  • Armadale Road, Perth
  • Beeliar Drive, Perth
  • North Lake Road, Perth
  • Stock Road, Perth
  • Carrington Street, Perth
  • South Street, Perth
  • Ranford Road, Perth
  • Abernethy Road, Perth (a very odd road indeed)
(list modified) Orderinchaos78 05:07, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Meanwhile I shall work on northern suburbs ones. If you get these ones done let me know :) Orderinchaos78 04:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Oh and what to do with each one:
  • Check the main article isn't linked, and disambig it if it is (i.e. look for a "Mandurah Road" article)
  • Use Template:Infobox Australian Road as a basis.
  • Quick introduction (Nicholson Road, Perth or Alexander Drive, Perth is what I have in mind - doesn't have to be extensive, we can go through them all later to get them up to scratch if necessary)
  • Major intersections section, and stub/cat notices.
Cheers Orderinchaos78 04:53, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Yeah you should always use edit summaries. Otherwise if you make a controversial change and someone sees it, they may think you were vandalising rather than trying to improve the article. Another one to avoid is ticking the minor box or using "minor copyedit" or somesuch as a summary if you're writing new sections or deleting old ones. I am shocking with mine, I tend to just pile together a list like "rm POV section, minor copyedit, cat Rockingham" or something like that. The ones you've been making in the last few edits are good - definitely a big improvement :) Orderinchaos78 12:51, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
More etiquette - I wouldn't make a habit of editing people's comments on talk pages, even if they are erroneous. This one was fine as I knew what was going on, but some people would cut sick at you for that sort of thing. Orderinchaos78 13:19, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Beeliar and North Lake ones are interesting. Forrest Road in Armadale and Forrest Road in Hamilton Hill used to be the same road, and most of what is now North Lake Road and Armadale Road (which then started in Forrestdale) was also called Forrest Road. Beeliar Drive did not exist until the mid 90s and essentially replaced Yangebup Road, which used to be a fairly major road. The minor streets "Teatree Place" and "Knock Place" hint at Forrest Road's former alignment. I'll see if I can get more info before you start those. Orderinchaos78 04:56, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Update - When the Kwinana Freeway came through in 1993, the present alignment of the road was adopted but the entire thing was still called Forrest Road. Beeliar Drive was built in 1994-95 and Yangebup Road (which previously went round the bottom of the lake to Hammond Road) was cut off. The present naming was adopted in the very late 1990s. Hope this helps! Orderinchaos78 05:02, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mandurah Road

Hi Daniel, great work with the articles. :) I did the move from Rockingham to Perth, and formatted the references - you did a good job finding those. If you look at the diff where I changed the references you can see how they are done - it's tricky at the start but after you do it a few times it becomes fairly easy. While the fields can be in any order, I would recommend always putting url and title first, and accessdate last, as that way people know where to look if they need to change it (like, say, if the reference goes offline or changes location and needs updating). Orderinchaos78 02:41, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

One other thing - just a WikiProject-friendly thing :) - when you finish an article you've just created and are about to move on, click on the discussion page and add the text {{WP Australia|Perth=yes}} (or WA=yes if it's not a Perth article). You do not need to sign this contribution. Mark the edit something like "signed to project" or even just copy the text into the edit summary. Don't worry about any you've already created, I've been progressively adding them as I've seen them. The purpose of these is to sign the article into the Wikiproject Australia (the mother of all projects in Australian terms) so that firstly people know where to look to improve articles, and secondly so they can be assessed. Orderinchaos78 02:47, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Hey no worries :) I've got a heap of northern ones to do. Basically everything east-west from Vincent Street upwards that has a route number (72 through 84) Also a few important city streets that don't yet have articles, and I want to ask a few Hills-based people what would be appropriate for their sections Orderinchaos78 04:17, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wheatbelt

I did that template for you, but I'm not sure if you actually realised how big it was going to be. :P

What I would suggest doing is going through the blue links and making sure they're adequate against Wandering, Western Australia. That is:

  • They have sections
  • They have an infobox
  • They are properly categorised

If it's really a worry, just put it up as text and link me to it so I can fix it. Infobox is just from here - doesn't matter if you can't find things out and have to leave them blank, as long as the key criticals (kms from Mukinbudin, name of town, state, type, lga etc) are in. What shires were you referring to - I thought we'd gotten those taken care of? Orderinchaos78 09:55, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What links here for a URL

Hi Hesperian, I was wondering if you know if there's a way to find all pages that link a specific URL? I've found [3] still works but is out of date, and should be [4]. This has got to be the dumbest file organisation system I have ever seen!! I did TEE Computing last year and we covered just this sort of situation. Anyway I'd like to know how to do it so I can do it again if I find any others, thanks :) DanielT5 07:58, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Anyway, how is it all going. I just read your nationals sub page. Well put, hold your ground when your heart in in the right place. Ask O78 about my political position. I am a bit embarrassed that anyone reads my talk page. I do like things to be out in the open though, so do you it seems.

[edit] Soldier settlement (Australia)

Hi there DanielT5 - Orderinchaos suggested I drop you a line about soldier settlement schemes which have directly influenced every state of Australia and have a direct link to irrigation commencement etc. These schemes opened up vast quantities of (amongst other places) Western Australia. Until today there was no article on Wiki covering the topic. I have started it and have also suggested it to be a WP:ACOTF article - would welcome your support if you think that such an article is appropriate for a collaboration project? --VS talk...images 02:49, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re email

I'll look into the shell article idea on Thursday. Been working on some very interesting stuff from ABS which should give us enough to populate every Wheatbelt town and shire in the ABS's somewhat artificial Campion District. I'm thinking something like the Hamersley "demographics" and "politics" sections, with a few extra bits (I may even be able to add to Hamersley) I'm going to be busy and nigh uncontactable until Thursday evening though. Orderinchaos78 15:26, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Quick one - haven't forgotten all this stuff. What I'm hoping to do is design a methodology first rather than just jump straight in. With the Wheatbelt it's quite different to a lot of areas as, although historically there've been a range of settlements, most shires essentially have one town, and most useful/verifiable info is actually about the shire. I have to sit down with all the info and hammer it out, but I can see for example the Shire of Mukinbudin article having a lot of useful and interesting geographical, demographic, agricultural, climatic etc information, while the town of Mukinbudin will be more a history of the town, the main buildings, political leanings of its residents and main occupations, with "main" links going back to the shire article. Some areas I think should probably be at the Wheatbelt section (there is *considerable* scope I believe to improve the general Wheatbelt article, and possibly have subarticles like "History of the Wheatbelt region" and so on.) I don't want to start anything radical like this until talking to others though. In the meantime don't let my stuff stop you improving the articles - I'll work around whatever you're doing. By the sounds of it the sort of information you're pulling up is quite independent of my stuff anyway, mine can even be added in at the end if need be. Orderinchaos78 07:32, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Mukinbudin/Nungarin and Dryland salinity

I know a little bit about dryland salinity. Briefly, inland areas of WA have a lot of salt, but previously most of it had leached down through the soil and into the water table, leaving the soil relatively fresh. In the past these areas had plenty of trees sucking up the soil water and so keeping the water table pretty deep. Then we came along and chopped down most of the trees to plant wheat. Without the trees sucking water out of the water table, the water table has gradually risen, bringing its salt with it. Once the water table gets within one or two metres of the surface, the soil is so saline that only salt tolerant plants survive. In the long term, the only way to fix the problem is to get the water table back down again, and then wait 50(?) years for the salt to wash back down out of the soil - the obvious way to get the water table back down is to plant trees again, but the soil is too saline for trees, so it's a Catch-22. In the short term, all sorts of things are being tried to keep the land from becoming completely useless. Some people are using bores to keep the water table down; some people are digging drains; some people are planting salt-tolerant grazing plants like Atriplex amnicola....

I've been working with biogeographic regions rather than agricultural regions. All these towns are in the Avon Wheatbelt biogeographic region. If you want to write about the geology, native vegetation, flora, fauna and climate of these regions, then the biogeographic region is relevant. But if you're more interested in writing about agriculture and industry, then you'd be better off talking in terms of the Regional Development Commissions Act region (Wheatbelt) or perhaps landcare district.

[edit] NSW general election page

Thanks for your kind words. I still think I'll give these pages a miss.

I don't believe election pages should just be a crue "cut and paste" of sensationalist newspaper mentions, where editors of different political persuasions compete to cram in propaganda and then "Let the reader decide".

If this is the philosophy, we may as well delete election articles altogether and replace them with links to political party homepages. Sadly, I'm in a minority re the NSW election page, so I'll leave it to my Liberal friends to post whatever they like without my attempts at balance. The average reader will be able to judge for themselves the value of the article, and in disputes over POV it is often best to walk away. It's only an online encyclopedia after all.

I appreciate your point about the WA Nationals - it must be a challenge trying to highlight your independent identity given the current and past attention to the larger Qld/NSW parties. The NSW Nationals have a similar issue - a party with two distinct wings (coastal pro-development, based on medium size regional towns, vs inland, pro-agriculture, based on farmers). The coastal Nats have the majority and the leadership, and public impressions are coloured by their attitudes - the inland Nats (arguably the traditonal party base) have some very different views and policies but struggle to get airtime or recogntion.

Anyway, thanks just some idle thoughts :) Jeendan 02:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi, I am contacting you regarding a comment that you left on User:Ali K talk page regarding a Sports Trainer article. This was the comment:

I would suggest ignoring this person as firstly they were blocked for "hoaxing" and secondly they don't own the article, I dont think one can be an "expert" in a generic article anyway (wouldnt every sports trainer in the country have a similar claim?) Your edits look good to me :) DanielT5 23:17, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Well I was blocked and have recently been unblocked, anyway the reason for me contacting you now is to say that i did not make claims about owning the article and i am an expert in that area, not only am i a Sports Trainer but i am also president of the sports trainer's association and i have over twenty years experience, which i would think makes me an expert in that area, don't you?
