Trove citations/references

Hi, Chris! I notice you are using a lot of Trove digitised newspaper citations/references. This is great but I think you are copying the URL from the address bar in your browser to create the citations/references. Unfortunately, Trove doesn't guarantee that those URLs are persistent. If you can, when you are looking at the digitised newspaper article on Trove, look in the upper left-hand corner of the article display and you will see a button labelled Cite. If you click that, you will get a series of ways to cite the articles in different formats. The last one on that list (you might have to scroll down) is the Wikipedia citation. You can just copy and paste that text in between the <ref> and </ref> tags. Just as comparison see these two citations (for the same newspaper article) the first done using the browser URL and the second one done with the Cite button: ^[1] ^[2]

But if you have a problem with doing that, please just keep what you are doing. The main thing is to contribute. The formatting of the citation can be cleaned up by other people (like me) if need be. Any questions, please feel free to ask me. Kerry (talk) 23:19, 23 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your work on Windsor Town Quarry Park and Tramways Substation No. 6

I see from your user page that this is a topic about which you are quite well-informed. As you probably have noticed, there are a number of other heritage-listed tramway substation articles for Brisbane so please feel free to improve them. Although I have created them, I am not someone who knows much about the topic. Thanks, again Kerry (talk) 21:13, 11 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for December 13

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Political party strength in Montana, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Harriet Miller. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
