Hi,

I am user Historynut101. I am new to wikipedia editing. Please bear with me as I learn. Historynut101 (talk) 04:45, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome

Welcome from a comparative newbie who shares your apparent interest in Australiania. Please allow me to make a couple of friendly suggestions:

Copying one sentence unchanged from an article is possibly lazy editing, but is not plagiarism and should not be deleted without discussion with other editors on the article talk page, as you did in Dorrigo, New South Wales.
Changing the elevation of Dorrigo to that quoted in a newspaper article ignores several available sources that may be considered to be more reliable (and please bear in mind that every street corner of any mountain town will have a different elevation) The Post Office is a preferred location but others (such as the BOM station) are also suitable.

Thomas Icely

Hi and welcome.

There is a something of a dispute about the text that you have changed and there is an attempted discussion about it. Yes the edit by the anonymous user you fixed was inelegant but when I fixed it the anonymous user simply reversed it. I was hoping for consensus before making another change. Still waiting for her/his response. Feel free to join the discussion. There is a direct connection between Icely and Carcoar (he requested the town's creation) but none between him and Mandurama (it was founded years after he retired and two years after his death).Otherthinker (talk) 07:21, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Grammar

Hello. The penguin dived into the ocean in 1923. In 1923 the penguin dived into the ocean. In 2011 I cannot find any reason to place a comma, useful as it may be in other circumstances, in either of the preceding sentences. Regards Crusoe8181 (talk) 09:39, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Why?

corrected wikipedia link mentioned in text Why? There is no error, so there's nothing to correct.

1) {{sortname|Alfred |Baxter-Cox|Alfred Richard Baxter-Cox}} (Original, which is correct.)

2) {{sortname|Alfred |Baxter-Cox|Alfred Baxter-Cox}} (Your change.)

3) {{sortname|Alfred |Baxter-Cox}} (Which is the same as your change, and is not a correction, just a change.)

Disambiguation link notification for April 27

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Parkes, New South Wales, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Peak Hill (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.
