Spell check
[edit]Not by default, but I believe that there are javascript add-on's which do that. If you're interested, you could have a look at Wikipedia:Tools/Editing tools which has info on that sort of thing. -- I@n 07:10, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Prickly moses
[edit]It had been part of local folklore in the hills over the last couple of decades that where it thrived, that it was a dieback free area - good to see that someone has suggested it might even supress - it is very healthy near my new property here in the hills - that's reassuring!

Rottnest Island edits
[edit]SeanMack, thanks for your edits - but what exactly did you change? The diffs don't look different. Cheers. Callophylla 08:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
- The edit I intended was to make the references smaller with a standard div style I've seen everywhere for references, remove a bit of whitespace and change a weblink to a ref. The first edit broke the references as I left an extra tag in there so the second one fixed that. You'll see I've marked both as minor edits. Many people don't show minor edits in their watchlist - so I saw no reason to alert anyone to the very minor change. There was no big change here as you detected. Welcome BTW, and good luck on WP. If I can help at all throw me a line. Cheers SeanMack 11:31, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi! thought you might be interested to know about this recent project start SatuSuro 01:47, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
In actual fact maritime history is a mess on the whole of wikipedia - subjugated and poorly written up. My personal motivation is that the whole prject is dedicated to the memory of Frank Broeze. I miss him! SatuSuro 04:46, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Refs
[edit]I got the balingup ref from the state ref catalogue - its well worth a trawl in there if you havent used it for smaller stub like articles it helps keep them from getting tagged by busy body outsiders...if you can find a specific and good ref... SatuSuro 07:49, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- May not be the same thing he's referring to but [1] is the State Library's catalogue - I find it incredibly useful. Also [2] for State Records Office if it's government records, but it's not the easiest beast to navigate and is far from complete. Orderinchaos78 05:14, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- I second what he says here - http://henrietta.liswa.wa.gov.au/ is a mine of info if you are doing almost any location here in western australia - type the location name and you'll get the most intriguing refs.... SatuSuro 05:44, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
West Powerout
[edit]They do have a member of staff who keeps very detailed list and info on all outages - I once spoke to her a few years ago - but the PR people keep her under lock and key when it comes to anyone from outside of the organisation attempting to access her (or her successor) ... somehow they hadnt got all holes covered at that stage. When I lived in Yogyakarta - the power would go back within 1 hour always - when I lived in Darlington the whole of the hills sometimes would be out because of one small fault in gidgegannup.... The favourite response at that stage was that the business (note not a public service like it used to be when it was the sec) saw no point in spending money on lower density population areas (!) Enough, its getting hot siotting here at the keyboard! SatuSuro 09:57, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Welcome back
[edit]Good to see your moniker on the system again - trust all is well - things happen in that sort of time SatuSuro 12:12, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

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!

[edit]The Kirup magic mushroom myth removed!
Wow - ten years! Trust all is well and that you might edit further again soon!
Always welcome back after that level of time away - hopefully more than just a
cleanup in the forests of the hills and valleys north of Balingup... JarrahTree 11:08, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- Well as you can see, @JarrahTree, I don't get back here very often. I'll chip in from time to time when I've got something to contribute. Callophylla (talk) 00:51, 8 April 2023 (UTC)
