[edit] Sources for Woolooware railway station, Sydney

Hello, good work on Woolooware railway station, Sydney, and thanks for the contribution. However, you did not provide any references or sources in the article. Keeping Wikipedia accurate and verifiable is very important, and as you might be aware there is currently a push to encourage editors to cite the sources they used when adding content. Can you list in the article any websites, books, or other sources that will allow people to verify the content in Woolooware railway station, Sydney? You can simply add links, or see WP:CITET for different citation methods. Thanks!  BRIAN0918  13:59, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

  • Hi and thanks for the heads-up - I am guessing that Woolooware got picked up out of my CityRail-related edits is because of the paragraph about the Rail Clearways claims - added a cite to the page where these claims are stated by CityRail on their site. -Spiky Sharkie [ talk ] 12:21, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Accidental blocking - requesting an unblock

(( unblock tag removed by me as the block has either been lapsed or deleted ))

An editing block affecting my user was placed as a block on an non-registered user with an IP address of 202.173.128.90 (talk page), given as a 48-hour block on 2006-03-31 (I don't know whether this is local time or UTC - whatever gets listed on the IP block list).

This IP address is in fact a transparent proxy for ISP Westnet, that is not being picked up by Wikipedia; I believe all users of this ISP in New South Wales, Australia (where this particular transparent proxy applies) would be affected by the edit block (including registered users).

Given that I (attempt to) perform all of my edits under this registered name (and I'm sure I'm not the only NSW Westnet user who does), I wish to request an unblock of this IP (if still active - given that this could possibly have lapsed by the time this request is processed), and possibly find a way for the WikiP code to pick up this transparent proxy so that things like this don't happen again. Ta. :-) -Spiky Sharkie [ talk ] 13:08, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
