[edit] St Edmunds College Ipswich
Hey Australia2world, Thanks for your question. Info should not be added to articles if it cannot be cited, therefore a students experience at a school cannot be included as its just an opinion (unless ofcourse it is documented in a public book or journal article or something). While references should usually come from sources external to the school, I know that sometimes important issues are only published on the school website or other school based publications. Info such as school fees for example are more reliable from a school source. When using internal sources its imperative to ensure its rewritten in your own words, and all point of view is removed, eg. "The school is an amazing school for fabulous students from years 7 to 12", should be written something along the lines of "X College caters for students from years 7 to 12". I hope that makes sense. The most important issue is that ALL info added to an article is referenced (see Presbyterian Ladies' College, Sydney for a good example). If you are interested in contributing to school articles you may also want to look at Scotch College, Perth and Aquinas College, Perth (the only Aust school articles rated as 'Good Articles') for ideas and tips. I hope I have made some sense and that you are interested in helping improve articles such as St Edmunds College Ipswich. If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask! Good Luck!

[edit] Electoral results
Just letting you know what a pleasure it's been seeing someone else make a consistent effort to put these results tables in the articles, as you have for Queensland electorates. Having seen a lot of people jump in when voting was only half done, or unaware of the conventions, it was great to see someone who had taken notice of the conventions. Hope to see more of this in the future! Frickeg (talk) 04:19, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Traveston Dam report
Hi A2W
I spent some very pleasant days in the Mary Valley a couple of months ago (it rains in Qld? In Feb? Who knew?) and was disheartened to learn about the dam. You added a link to a government report in the Traveston Crossing Dam article but it points to just the Senate top-level website.
There are several hits for Traveston Dam report at that site but I'm not sure which one you were after. Hope you find a "good" one.
Good luck. Saintrain (talk) 23:05, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
