Welcome!

edit

Good afternoon, apparent newcomer! I saw (on my watchlist) that someone had done something to our 4th-largest island, so I had a look, and there was this mass of detail looking as if it had to have been written by someone who had been there and possibly still was there.

I was not impressed at the change that suggested that councils have boundaries; their territories do; but I'll let that pass for a while.

I hope you can add your name to one or more of the Wikipedia:Wikipedians-related lists, including the NZers, and eventually tell us a bit about yourself on your User page (which is also useful for keeping "to do" lists and other links and reminders).

If you have any feeling for te reo Maori, please visit the Maori language page and the corresponding WP.

Best wishes. Robin Patterson 00:41, 25 Feb 2005 (UTC)


Welcome from me as well. Robin is away from the internet for a few days, so don't expect any immediate answers to questions on his talk page.

With regard to your images (specifically Image:Cococrb2.jpg): I see some mixed messages. The image was originally marked as public domain, and you initially stated "All images on this webpage are free to use this picture however you wish" which means the same thing, but then when fixing the typos you changed it to say "for non-commercial purposes". Wikipedia is licenced under the GFDL which is not strictly compatible with non-commercial. We allow non-commercial images at present in the English Wikipedia, but not on the Wikimedia Commons, and we'll probably ban non-commercial images entirely at some point. It would be a shame to lose yours; would you consider licencing it as GFDL instead? Thanks.-gadfium 04:52, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Thanks for filling in, Gadfium. I know next to nothing about images, so it's just as well you came along!

I also wondered about the licensing stuff. See my comment on that image's talk page. It's a great photo, btw. A-giau 23:10, 5 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for the clarification. Hopefully I (or someone) will be able to upload a copy of the crab image to the "no-non-commerical" land known as the Commons:, so we can all point to it. I'm currently working on an article that would benefit from your image. Thanks. A-giau 03:16, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Glanced at your pages, L-Bit. You're the one with even less hair than I have. Keep up the good contributing. How much is too much? Well, have a look at Plimmerton, which has a mere 3,000 residents and a lot more stuff I could write about it (much of which is on my Webspawner page about it).

RN Ensign

edit

Thanks for helping with the RN ensign cleanup task. There's one small matter I'd like to bring to your attention. You've been changing over some of the USN destroyers that ended up in the RN thanks to the destroyers-for-bases deal. Those have both the RN ensign and the USN jack as they served in both fleets. When you've replaced the RN ensign you've put the link code for the image on a separate line to that for the USN image link code. That means that the flags end up on different lines in the table. What we've usually done with tables like that, for those destroyers, the escort carriers transferred under similar circumstances and other ships that served in two or more navies is to have the flag code and thus the flags without a line break in between. A space is probably a good idea, to provide a separation between the images. However, having a link break in there increases the size of the table cell and, at least to my mind, makes it look ugly.

I'd appreciate it if you could put the two flag links on the same line after changing in the future. David Newton 20:57, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Thanks David Newton. I got this wrong as I read somewhere (can't find it now) that part of the cleanup job was to ensure wikilinks were typed on one line. I think I might even have gone back through some of the ensign changes and already made and then made them worse. The one thing I obviously didn't do was check my work. It is good that even through contributing badly, there's always an eye out for the good of the Wiki. Cheers L-Bit 11:02, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I didn't make it clear in the cleanup task that it would be a good idea to keep the ensigns/jacks on one line, so it's at least partially my fault. I would have done this sort of thing with a bot using human interaction, but I have yet figured out how to use the Wikipedia bot framework, despite looking at the FAQ pages and the mailing list!
As for contributing 'badly', all that has to be done now is to have a quick look through the list of destroyers and escort carriers that served in both the USN and RN and replace the line break between the two flag images with a space. That's hardly a catastrophe. The important thing in this matter is getting rid of all the links to those files with dubious copyright situations that also have replacements available so that the dubious files can be deleted when that process is complete. I did it myself for the RAN and RNZN ensigns, but the RN and USN images are linked to so many ships (hundreds each) that I felt some help for the task would be useful. I think I've also seen someone adding new USN jack images after the point about the potential copyright problems was raised, so I'll have to stick a note on their talk page about the matter.

alphabetic lists for birds

Hi! I noticed you alphabeticised the page Honeyeater. Just so you know, the random order of the bird lists is actually the taxonomic order, showing relationships within the family.

Publishing Project in Cambodia (with section on Champa)

edit

Hello,


My name is Kheng Pytou Kethya, Director of Sastra Publishing, a publisher of textbooks and other academic materials based in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

I am writing you today because we would like to pursue our efforts in making academic material in Khmer language more accessible to Cambodian students and faculty as well.

Sastra Publishing is currently working on a book project about ethnicity in Cambodia in which we have a section on Champa. We have come across your picture on Wikipedia website taken in My Son and entitled [The towers of Po Sa Nu (Pho Hai) near Phan Thiết may be the oldest extant Cham buildings. In style, they exhibit the influence of pre-Angkorian Cambodia].

We are contacting you to see whether there would any possibility for you to send us the original picture (with the highest possible resolution). We would, of course, acknowledge your contribution as part of the book's photography credits.

Please let us know your thoughts. You can contact us at the following email address:

kethya@gmail.com kethya@khmerstudies.org

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards

War boat

edit

Go back and fix your typo! Amandajm (talk) 07:48, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

No, Go back and look! It has been moved upwards, into a better place, giving it the same status as the Dunkirk vessels and getting it away from the more generic craft and the "little jolly boat'. If it is really important, then it needs to be treated as such. Amandajm (talk) 11:06, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
"treaty" won't work if you leave it as "Treat". That's why I told you there was a typo. Treaty of Waitangi remained in the red, not because it doesn't have a page, (of course it has a page!) but because you left the "y" off, on both occasions. You've got to use that Show preview option, and if something doesn't work that obviously should work, the first step in the procedure is to see if you, as the editor, made a mistake. Amandajm (talk) 11:18, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for correcting my errors. I always use preview (if you don't believe me check my "contributions"), but between my mismanagement in this case, and my browsers cache, I got totally buggered up. L-Bit (talk) 11:26, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Well I hope you're happy with what I have done with it. I didn't realise, when I saw the boat in the pageant, that it was quite so historically significant. I must say that it looked just magnificent, and was a highlight of the parade. The BBC commentators kept waffling on! The other broadcast I was watching had no commentary whatsoever.
The BBC did some truly unforgivable things. Just as the Choir were singing Jerusalem, they proceeded to interview the rather nutty chap from "Horrible Histories", who was so loud and animated that he drowned out the music. Well, it was a crowd pleaser, I suppose, but actually the crowd seemed quite happy to watch and make their own fun, without having comedians on the scene!

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

edit

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!

ESEAP Conference 2018

edit
 

Hello L-Bit,

I’m Irvin from PhilWiki Community, a member of the Communication Committee of the ESEAP Conference. ESEAP Conference 2018 is a regional conference for Wikimedia communities throughout the ESEAP region: ESEAP stands for East, Southeast Asia, and Pacific. Taking place in Bali, Indonesia on 5–6 May 2018, this is the first regional conference for these Wikimedia communities.

East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific are the most under-represented regions within the Wikimedia community. There is a significant number of Wikimedia contributors in our regions, yet we continue to struggle in establishing a well-managed community. This conference will bring participants from various ESEAP communities together in order to better understand the issues and to look for solutions. It also aims to connect people of the Wikimedia movement within ESEAP regions, to share ideas, and to build regional collaborations that are impossible to achieve through online communication.

We’ve got a lot of participation from several countries, but we’re lacking from your country. As we need more participants from your country, we believe that your contribution and participation would be a valuable asset to the success of this event. If you would like to participate in the conference, please do fill the form as soon as possible (by April 5, 2018) and we’ll inform you if you get selected for the conference.

Thank you and we hope to see you soon. --Filipinayzd 01:43, 31 March 2018 (UTC)

Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.
