Good to see you're still about Donama. I hope to see you there :)--cj | talk 15:35, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
I almost did too (ack, mornings!). It went well; I think we had a turnout of around 20. Jimmy had to run of early to a press conference though. There's always next time :)--cj | talk 00:05, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of Krystal Forscutt

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Krystal Forscutt, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Krystal Forscutt seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Krystal Forscutt, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 12:12, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] You've been refactored

I'm prepared to let this stand, per the right to vanish. But it is you whose comments have been refactored; I have no objection to you reverting. Its up to you. Hesperian 11:40, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks, I think I'll delete the whole comment. Donama 05:23, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Question

Hello Donama, good to see you're still contributing - your username was one of the first I ever saw, way-back-when :)

I was wondering, would you be able to make a map similar to commons:Image:Burnsidemap.png for the City of Unley? I had a go, and totally failed, and your Burnside one looks fantastic :)

Eagerly awaiting a response, Daniel→♦ 07:24, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

It'll cost you 50 bucks! Just kidding. I think I could do that. To come soon... Donama 08:08, 9 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Little context in Wurly

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Wurly, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Wurly is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Wurly, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

[edit] tick

I notice you edited Tick (disambiguation) and Time (computing) in the assumption that one computer tick is a microsecond. I'm not aware of any computer ticking at that rate, though several Linux implementations track time at that resolution. A careful reading of Time (computing) should explain the distinction. Accordingly, I've reverted your edits. Regards, —EncMstr 02:59, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] AfD nomination of Hugo Kelly

An article that you have been involved in editing, Hugo Kelly, has been listed for deletion. If you are interested in the deletion discussion, please participate by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hugo Kelly (2nd nomination). Thank you. --B.

[edit] John Long who

Hi, this is in regards to your contributions to Wikisource from January 2006. They intrigued me enough to do some digging around, but I havent been able to work out who this "John Long" is, so I started a discussion on Wikisource:Proposed_deletions. Someone has bugged me for more details, and I have just now realised you are still active here on Wikipedia. so ... please come help us! :-) John Vandenberg 04:13, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi again, as this is just a single image on its own, I am going to delete it on Wikisource for the moment. However, if you are able to secure a better agreement with the copyright holder, or we can determine that it is in fact public domain, we can easily undelete it. I have looked into this further as it could be a very valuable resource, and it all comes down to which country he was a citizen of. If he was a citizen of USA, then it is public domain if he died before 1937. If he remained a citizen of the UK, it is copyright for 50 years after it is first published - if it hasnt been published yet, then it is still protected. John Vandenberg 09:19, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Yes CC licenses are the way to go. The problem is that "cc-by-nc" is not an acceptable license on Wikisource. If you can negotiate with the copyright holder to give Wikisource a "cc-by-sa" license, that would be ideal. The other option is you could ask for a "cc-by-nd" (no derivatives) license, but that is not yet approved for use on Wikisource - we will have an uphill battle trying to ask the Wikisource community to accept cc-by-nd, but I for one will support the inclusion of this diary under "cc-by-nd".
Also, we have a much stronger team on Wikisource these days to support you while you learn the ropes; I will personally guarantee to give you any assistance you need. John Vandenberg 01:16, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revised

Hi Donama - since Sunday is inconvenient for many people due to church, we are rescheduling for Saturday. I hope you will still be able to attend! Best, ~ Riana 12:10, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Heya - yeah, we were trying to make a compromise between people who have Sundays free, and people who have church etc, but I guess it'll always be hard to find a date that's perfect for everyone, regardless of how much you plan ahead! Hope you can make it! ~ Riana 01:49, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Reminder

Just a gentle nudge towards the meetup page, hoping you can confirm your attendance before the day is out. We'd love you to be there. :) ~ Riana 18:27, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Michael McCoy

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Michael McCoy, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Wikimedia Australia incorporation meeting

Hi there Donama! As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation has recently approved Wikimedia Australia as an official chapter. In order to acknowledge this, and to appoint an interim committee, approve our statement of purpose and our rules, and appoint a Public Officer, Wikimedia Australia will be having a meeting at Computerbank in Melbourne. For those of us who are located in other cities, we shall be holding conference calls to the main meeting.

The meeting will be held at 2:30PM on Sunday, 20th April 2008, Adelaide time. In order for us to organise this meeting, we need your help! Please drop by at our meta subpage with suggestions as to venues, conference calling services, etc. It will be at 2:30 so we can meet up for lunch beforehand if anyone's open for that!

Hoping to see you there! ~ Riana 01:53, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
