Magistrates' vs. Magistrates

I know that various Magistrates' Courts in Australia have logo-designers and website-constructors who are not as concerned as the rest of us about correct punctuation. The Magistrates' Courts in England do not tend to be as sloppy, q.v. I would be willing to be persuaded that the Magistrates' Court of Tasmania knew what to call itself if there were any serious justification for the lack of apostrophe. Are you aware of any? I would be even more willing to be persuaded if the inconsistency between the two various forms (see the Magistrates' Court of Victoria website - there is a link from the page), had any rhyme or reason to it.GSTQ 23:21, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

OneSteel

No problems. It'd been a long requested article, thanks for creating it. There's a few links about the place linking to Onesteel. I fixed one at David Tweed but I'm sure there's more about. Cheers. -- Longhair 02:16, 7 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Creating subpages

Hi MojoTas. Apologies for my late reply. I've been suffering internet connections problems here at home but I think I'm back for now. You asked at my talk page,

Longhair, can you tell me either how to make subsidiary pages within a page (i.e. in a discussion page, creating an archive page; or in a user page, making sub-pages) or where I can find this info? Tried with no luck.?.

Creating a subpage is very easy. Just add /pagename after the URL in your browsers address bar, press enter, and begin to edit your new subpage as per normal editing. Archives are usually created much the same way, but let me know exactly what you're trying to do and I'll point you in the right direction. Cheers. -- Longhair\^talk 22:31, 16 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Paul Lennon vandalism

Apart from blocking off the whole university there is nothing really to be done. If it's just once per month it's quite minor compared to what happens elsewhere on Wikipeida. Just keep watch of the page and revert it when you see it.--Konst.able^Talk 12:41, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

System Shock

Where does it state in the game (or even the manual) that TriOptimum and Tetracorp developed from softdrink giants? The only relevant thing I recall is in System Shock 2 there is a reference to the two softdrink giants of the 20th century, but there is nothing about a connection to Triop.--Drat (Talk) 10:14, 7 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Australia and the United Nations

Australia and the United Nations has been selected as the new Australian collaboration of the fortnight. I created a tiny stub. Please help to improve it however you can. Thanks. --Scott Davis ^Talk 13:28, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:AIV

You should report vandals on WP:AIV. Amos Han ^Talk 01:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like that the vandal IP that we reported on WP:AIV comes from Australia. I clicked on "IP Info" on the very bottom of the IP talk page. Since it has a very long history of vandalism and blocks, I am thinking that it might be a school IP. Amos Han ^Talk 02:03, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

User:203.217.22.2 (the IP of the vandal we reported) finally got blocked. It has been blocked for 1 year. Now we can rest, but I've got more vandalisms to revert. Amos Han ^Talk 02:10, 30 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Bend It like Beckham

He was blanking the entire page, section by section. He's also had a history of vandalism. Bsroiaadn 04:01, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage

I was just mucking about with the wdefcon style you're using, and checked your userpage to see if it broke anything. It did, but your userpage looked like it was somewhat broken before that. Did [1] fix it? I'm not sure what you originally intended. Apologies if I've just made things worse :P-- Consumed Crustacean (talk) 19:36, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Slim

I don't think bursting into print about allegations (reported in the media or not) is fair to Slim, unless & until these allegations are tested & proved or disproved in court. Anyone can allege anything about anyone (I could make up something about you) & if these are all included in an encyclopedia it would degrade it. GrahamBould 08:18, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

Why can't we all have a little fun with wiki now and then?

New South Wales v Fahy

Hey, no problems. Just out of curiosity how did you find out about this case? The judgment hasn't appeared on the High Court/Austlii site yet. Kewpid 04:05, 23 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Banned long time persistent nasty abuser. Period. It is not like he added some unique irreplaceable info. `'Míkka 02:21, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

To satisfy your curiosity for this case, he just cut'n'pasted the corresponding section out of Romania. `'Míkka 02:27, 1 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hobart meetup

Hi MojoTas, just letting you know that a Hobart meetup is planned for Monday 19th January. If you're around it would be great if you could come along. See Wikipedia:Meetup/Hobart for info. thanks, pfctdayelise (talk) 11:11, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Hornbook -- a new WP:Law task force for the J.D. curriculum

Hi MojoTas,

I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".

Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.

Each casebook will have a subpage.

Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.

I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.

What you can do now:

1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.

2. If you're a law student,

Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.

(You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)

3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Regards, Andrew Gradman ^talk/_WP:Hornbook 20:02, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

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! Cheers.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:12, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
