[edit] Welcome! Some useful links
Hi KaiAdin! Welcome to WP.
I see you're in Sydney at the moment. In that case, you might be interested in checking out the Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board and the Wikipedia:WikiProject Sydney.
And, nice photos! :) The architecture reminds me of commons:Newman College, University of Melbourne. Can I recommend you upload to them to commons: instead of here? That way, they're available to be used in all the wikimedia projects, not just the English Wikipedia. Check out Wikipedia:Commons for a bit of an introduction. If you need a hand or it doesn't quite make sense, just let me know, I'm on commons a fair bit.

- You do need to re-upload the image, I'm afraid. There is no tool to move images wholesale to commons because (A) en accepts some images that commons doesn't (eg, fair use) and (B) the terms of the GFDL and some Creative Commons licenses require that the image history be available. People on en are a bit paranoid about this, so not that many images have been moved over, I think. It also means you can't (or shouldn't) delete the local image on en. Tag it with {{NowCommons}}. Actually, if there's been no changes made to it, you might be able to get it deleted. I dunno. It's confusing. Uploading to commons in the first place is less confusing. :) pfctdayelise 23:09, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Stubs
Hello,
Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from Wikipedia:WikiProject_Stub_sorting/Stub_types instead of using simply {{stub}}, if you can.
Thanks!

[edit] CityRail Station Photos
Hi, I've noticed you've recently joined Wikiproject Sydney and you live in the Holsworthy area. I'm putting together the CityRail stations pages and I'm in desperate need of some photos. I was wondering whether, if you have a camera and some time at any stage, to get a photo or two of the stations in your area. Have a look at Eastwood railway station, Sydney for the sort of shots we want - one at least that shows the platform area adequately, and if you can one of the front of the station. That would be great if you can do that. (JROBBO 08:59, 30 May 2006 (UTC))
- Ok sure, i take the train from Holswthory Station every day, ill just bring my camera later this week and get some photos -- KaiAdin 11:10, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

- Would this be a good Start? A Photo from a frw months ago, uploaded to wikimedia commons -- KaiAdin 11:12, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

- That's great. Thanks so much! Do you have any other rail-related photos on wikimedia commons? (JROBBO 12:50, 30 May 2006 (UTC))

- No, not yet, i just uploaded that one actually, ill have to trawl through my archives for them, i may have some for the interior St James Station too, else i can always take some tomorrow or later in the week. -- KaiAdin 12:58, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
