DiverGuard

Thanks Pbsouthwood for your note. I know this company, DiverGuard, and i asked their permission to use this photo. Because i know this company, i didn't linked to their website, because i thought it will be inappropriate. As you know i am a new contributor, and i hope to edit more, so i didn't classified correct the picture. I changed the picture now to a picture i really took by myself. I will be happy to know how to change the "auther" or how to delete the old version.... :-) For some reason the new photo not shown in the diving equioment page. Thanks again Owlook — Preceding unsigned comment added by Owlook (talk • contribs) 22:15, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Owlook, Thanks for clarification. The old image had been deleted already and the link on the equipment page has been fixed, so it is all sorted out. No further action is necessary. If you want to reload the black and blue photo, you will need written permission from the copyright holder/author. Your replacement photo is better for the purpose anyway, so probably not worth the hassle. Cheers, • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 05:40, 20 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Diving Medicine

Hey Pbsouthwood, I was unfamiliar with the format that was on the diving medicine page (I've never seen a page written like that ever) and I just stuck to normal prose format. My bad for not going to the talk page first to talk about that, but I felt compelled to help correct the content. TylerDurden8823 (talk) 15:53, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please continue to correct/improve content, I am somewhat out of my depth on medical topics, but someone has to do it...
The templated term/definition formatting is an option for lists which I thought might be suitable to avoid too much sectionalisation and a huge ToC. The problem with your change is that it breaks the formatting of section levels - either the whole section must be in templated list or in normal subsections. If the Project Medicine people prefer one or the other, I would just like to know, so it can be kept consistent, Cheers, • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 16:04, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I have a feeling there is no strong preference in terms of formatting one way or the other with respect to how it was being formatted before or how I formatted the section I worked on. I just know how to format it the way I did, that's the only reason I put it in that format. The other method is completely unfamiliar to me but it might be considered acceptable, I really wouldn't know. At this point, considering that it's a brand new article and still being developed, I would just say keep at it. If the formatting is incorrect, someone will come along and correct it and let you guys know. All the best, TylerDurden8823 (talk) 16:28, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
OK, Thanks for the comments, I will carry on until challenged, or I change my mind. Cheers, • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 16:50, 2 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrol

Hello! I came across Decompression theory while patrolling new pages. I haven't looked at the other articles you've created but given your work on this article, I think you probably qualify for autopatrolled status. If you're not familiar with the process, every new article is checked by new page patrollers for obvious issues like articles about subjects which make no claim of significance and copyright violations. Any admin can change your permissions so that your articles are automatically marked as patrolled. This cuts down on the workload of patrollers and marks you as a trusted member of the article creating community. Just thought you might want to know about it. Have a great rest of the week! OlYeller21Talktome 19:42, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yeller21, I'm sure you are right. I would be quite happy to be autopatrolled, but as this would not make any noticeable difference in my life I have not bothered to request it. If it would make life easier for the new page patrollers, feel free to nominate me or if you are an admin, flip the bit. Cheers, • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 20:42, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

marine animals fo the cape peninsula

jeepers, Pbsouthwood, that poor article has fallen right off my priority list.. if you want to zoot it up and put it into mainspace you're welcome.. I really have had absolutely NO spare time over the last few months and the next few aren't looking that great.. but I will for sure put it back on the list if you think I should... Seascapeza (talk) 15:19, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't think you will have the time, why not bung it into mainspace and leave a few notes on the talk page about what still needs to be done. You have done a lot of work there which is wasted at the moment, and I would like to get it into workable shape. Cheers, • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 16:02, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@ User:Jmh649/Will Beback

Your comment...How is it possible to demonstrate to the Arbitration Committee that his history of disruptive conduct will not continue? It seems unreasonable to require proof of future behaviour without allowing future activity. was the best comment among many. Most of the opposes responded to the psuedo-RfC rather than support or non-support of the ban. Only a dozen or so actually speak against lifting the ban. ```Buster Seven Talk 22:22, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

diving

  • What sorts of rebreather scuba do you use? Anthony Appleyard (talk) 16:40, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have a Draeger Ray which I don't use much, and a IDA71 out of the box that I was planning to modify, but never got around to. Also have recently been given a PVR-BASC which needs to be checked for functionality. I hope to get some good photos while I am busy looking it over. I have also dived a standard Draeger Dolphin which belonged to a friend, and occasionally design and make parts for a variety of associates who are home builders/modifiers. Mostly I just dive OC as it suits the work I do better. Its mostly my mates who dive them. Why do you ask? • • • Peter (Southwood) (talk): 18:39, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have scuba dived much including some dives with rebreathers. I have made CGI models of scuba divers. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:30, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Autopatrolled granted

Hi Pbsouthwood, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled right to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you have any questions. Happy editing! ~ Amory (u • t • c) 21:34, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for all your article creations! Some of the earlier ones could use a little TLC (South African Underwater Sports Federation, List of military diving units, List of underwater divers, List of researchers in underwater diving, Booster pump) in terms of references, but on the whole they're pretty solid. Please make sure everything is tip top and thanks again! ~ Amory (u • t • c) 21:36, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Deep air/extended range diving

I see you added a 'citation needed' tag to the claim about french agencies training to 60m on air. The two certifications are PE60 (air to 60m with qualified guide) and PA60 (air to 60m autonomous)

I don't know how to add citations but the three major french certification agencies qualififications are desribed on their official websites:

These are in french, of course.
