Hi Mark, and welcome to the 'pedia. Anything you need to know, just ask. You were quite right about that redirect, by the way. I made the change. Cheers, and I hope you stick around. Tannin 08:52, 14 Sep 2003 (UTC)
With regard to Bob Hawke feel free to put in the wording you want - by the way the 2007 election will be for Howard what the 1961 election was for Menzies almost - it will be 11 years since there was a Labor Government (12 years in 1961) and 14 years since Labor won an election (15 years in 1961).

[edit] Transfinite induction
- The first step above is actually redundant. If P(b) follows from the truth of P(a) for all a < b, then it is simply a special case to say that P(0) is true, since it is vacuously true that P(a) holds for all a < 0.
You deleted this paragraph from transfinite induction. I think you completely failed to understand it. Suppose I prove that if { for all a < 0, P(a) }, then P(0). Since there exists no a < 0, it is vacuously true that for all a < 0, P(a). Consequenly my proof that if for all a < 0, P(a) then P(0) necessarily implies that P(0) is true. That is a way to prove P(0).
Now suppose I prove that for any b, if { for all a < b, P(a) }, then P(b). I said for any b, and that implies in particular for b = 0. Thus that single step proves both P(0) and induction step. Michael Hardy 23:18, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Telehealth
I was just wondering if you actually knew that Telehealth at RFDSA was definitely videophone advice, or if you were just removing question marks. Thanks for the cleanup though.--ZayZayEM 00:32, 15 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Lisp and Forth
Sorry Mark, I thought I was answering the user who last contributed to the article. After checking the history, I found out that it was you. Cheers -- Svest 05:58, 18 December 2005 (UTC) Wiki me up™

[edit] Music in Xena
Please do not re-add the section on "The Music" to the article Xena: Warrior Princess. That section is copied from the website http://www.historyfan.com/music1.html . Wikipedia cannot use it without the express permission of the material's author. Please see Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details on Wikipedia and copyrights.

- "Of course, if you noticed the music section here, I wouldn't have been caught by it :-)" Yeah yeah. :-) Cheers, FreplySpang (talk) 15:36, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hugo Kelly
Hi Mark - Mayne's allegation that Hugo Kelly wrote his own Wikipedia entry is entirely false. I am not Hugo Kelly - much of the material in the original article was taken from an interview I did with him which is on my blog - http://bekk.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_bekk_archive.html
(scroll down, it's called The Sleeping Giant of Australia's Media Scene)
The IP address you've suggested is him is also me - it's my work computer. Can you please remove the autobiographical thingies from the entry. HighPriestess of the PDRGI 04:06, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
- I would agree here, and to be honest, even if it was Hugo Kelly, what of it? So long as they write neutrally and in an encylopedic tone then I think we should keep the material. However, I don't agree that we should be using a straight copy & paste from a blog. There is altogether too much trivia in the article. I really don't think anyone needs to know what their favourite food is, for instance. - Ta bu shi da yu 07:41, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure we didn't have a favourite food in there! Only that Hugo's hobbies are eating my cooking, and sleeping - which they are. But anyway, it's certainly a work in progress at the moment. Oh, and partner is fine.
I'm finding the copyright stuff a bit confusing - do I need to put a copyright notice on my blog? HighPriestess of the PDRGI 01:53, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Subst
Hi, when you post a welcome message to a newcomer, could you use {{subst:welcome}}, {{subst:welcome2}}, etc., instead of just {{welcome}}, {{welcome2}}, etc. It means that the text of that particular template will be added to the talk page of the user instead of the user just seeing a sort of mirror image of it. Two advantages are that if the actual template is vandalized, the message you have sent will not be altered in any way, and also less load is placed on the server. For more information, please see WP:SUBST. Cheers. Mkdwtalk 09:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Libby's time
Regarding my edit here, I think it's fair to say that I mucked this one up. I saw the news site and assumed that the time I'd seen the previous night had been corrected, then saw other sources which had the original time. All in all, not one of my finer Wikipedia moments. You do what ya gotta do.
