[edit] RMIT

Michelle, firstly I understand and respect your edits regarding the RMIT article. However, I do believe some of the content you removed is valid, even if it's not written in the correct (non-advertorial/unbias) language. As opposed to deleting it completely, perhaps rewording it in an appropriate language may be a better option for all. Also, one thing I don't understand is you reworking of the articles headings. I'm not a seasoned Wikipedian, so I'm curious as to why they were changed, since the edits regarding them weren't explained. Thanks! AshGreen (talk) 02:17, 07 May 2008 (AEST)

[edit] Thanks

Hi Michelle. Thanks for your reply and advice. I've edited the RMIT article with appropriate language, and I hope it's in accordance. If not, please advise me so, since I am eager to get it right for future articles. AshGreen (talk) 12:12, 07 May 2008 (AEST)

[edit] Uni of Tasmania

The list adds useful encyclopedic content to the article and provides useful information about the TUU. A rewording may be in order. Unless you can provide specifically quoted examples where this particular list is in breach of Wikipedia policy, rather blanket linking to pages such as WP:NOT, and your own, perhaps inapplicable interpretations of the rules, then the deletion is entirely unwarranted. In the case that the deletion is technically justified, the appropriate action would be a rewording of the content to make use of the information it provides. Try some constructive edits to the section. Noodle snacks (talk) 11:38, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] First and last

I think this whole Kevin07 business last year kind of confused everyone - I had the same problem at Cameron Thompson's article where someone had used his first name throughout. Orderinchaos 06:52, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Re exams: Indeed. Politics exams, no less. *groan* Thanks :) And re naming - yes, no professional publication would use a first name in this context - I tend to regard academic journal articles as something of a style guide. Orderinchaos 08:16, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] KLIA Operations and Infrastructures

Hi there. Good job for moving the section into a new page. However, please do a short summary on each section in the main article. Thanks! Jannisri (talk) 02:55, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Brisbane Lions "Stats"

Hi! Have you read the article clearly enough for your explanation in your edit summary. This is what it says:

• "Statistics. Long and sprawlinglists of statistics may be confusing to readers and reduce the readability and neatness of our articles. In addition, articles should contain sufficient explanatory text to put statistics within the article in their proper context for a general reader. In cases where this may be necessary, (e.g. Opinion polling for the United States presidential election, 2008), consider using infoboxes or tables to enhance the readability of lengthy data lists. "

Quite clearly these "stats" are not long and sprawling, they are neccessary to keep track of the club's progreess and give a much clearer idea on the club's progression (this is one of the main ideas of an encyclopaedia) and it's in a table; nice, neat and easy to read. So what is the problem with putting them on the page? Shaggy9872004 (talk) 06:26, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I just received your message. I don't think (and neither does Wiki "there is no practical limit to the number of topics it can cover, or the total amount of content") that it shouldn't be there. The reason we need those things from 2005 onwards is because Brisbane is still a young club. It can handle that much information; further more we don't need to give ggraphs from 2001-2004 becuase we know they won the premiership. As for it being not in context - we can ezil move those graphs for them to be in context and it isn't easy to find that info on the internet (apart from the season articles for AFL which don't give easy to read info for Brisbane it self anyway). It is neccessary for this info to be displayed if there is need of it, at the moment, there is.Shaggy9872004 (talk) 06:59, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

UPDATE: I've just tweaked and moved the tables. I hope we have afinal decision.--Shaggy9872004 (talk) 07:04, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
