Mount Gambier cave diving deaths

Hi Cowdy001, How are you doing? I wonder if you can find any refs to help establish notability of Draft:Mount Gambier cave diving accident. The main reference is pretty solid for information and reliability, but a few more wouldn't hurt. Since it is in your turf you may have access to newspaper reports etc of the time.

If you have any photos of The Shaft that we can use it would be great. · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 19:28, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

Hi Peter Southwood, I apologise for not replying earlier, but I have not been very active on WP for about a year. I just logged about 30 minutes ago on to fix an error that I saw in another article. I have some relevant subject material that has not been cited in the article. It take a couple of days to get around to it. Regards Cowdy001 (talk) 09:31, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks, no problem, that would be fine. I hope you are in good health. Cheers, · · · Peter Southwood ^(talk): 14:04, 13 December 2021 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Mount Bundey (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

Mornington Peninsula and Western Port Biosphere Reserve

Hi Cowdy001, I am Treasurer of the MPWPBR Foundation. We would like to update various things on this page you set up, but it appears we don't have the permissions level to add our updated UNESCO Reserve map etc. I am pretty new to Wikipedia and unsure how page admin works, but we would like to be able to administer this page and undertake a substantial update. We have recently completed a history project etc for our 20th Anniversary, so have many more insights, project status to update.

Can we transfer admin to our organisation? Thanks BrooksieG (talk) 19:37, 21 November 2023 (UTC)
