[edit] picture crossbow
could you make this picture with a better background? You could lay it on some well cut grass (a leave or two next to it can make this arrangement a beautiful composition) for a picture (if it is suitable for hunting) or with a big target (or several small ones, different ones, etc.) as background (if it is only for sport). Some technical data about its abilities would be nice. (recurve all-metal crossbow with telescopic sight, effective range 100 metres, maximum range 300 metres, etc.) Some pictures from different angles and while loading it (foot and arms visible) could be useful.

- Good idea. I'll try getting a picture of it loaded as well. raptor 10:24, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
- What do you think of this version? raptor 04:20, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

- Yes, this works out much better. If you have your pictures, could you upload them on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page so they are available to all language wikis. And write a bit of text about its technical feats directly. Wandalstouring 10:17, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] bunbury
irregular,mainly the old railway station and roundhouse as I have some photos from about 20 years ago + which i will eventually upload :) SatuSuro 02:42, 16 August 2006 (UTC) btw thanks for the offer anyway!
[edit] Laws on crossbows
You stated that pistol crossbows are strictly controlled in many areas. That is a bit US-centered because in most parts of the world they are legally a toy for children.
I would appreciate it if we could present an overview about laws on crossbows worldwide (the countries we know, more people can add). But it needs some kind of layout. Wandalstouring 10:24, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 12:31, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 12/0 ?
Since you participated in the discussion at talk:division by zero about the chart being sold by an (allegedly) educational publisher that says that 1/0 = 0, 2/0 = 0, etc., perhaps it will interest you to know that at this web site where the chart is sold, the publisher now solicits opinions of the product. You can go there and tell them what you think. Michael Hardy 20:57, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I sure did, thanks. raptor 02:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
