Date format
[edit]Please read MOS:DATEFORMAT before adding any more climate descriptions to articles. In particular, please use (for example) "13 February 1969" instead of "the 13th of February 1969". Mitch Ames (talk) 06:28, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
Ok, I have read the article, and will implement its recommendations to climate descriptions. Replied 1 September 2024.
You need
[edit]- To remember how to wP:SIGN
- Understand that WP:SPA can lead you into interesting territory - you should try to diversity - further, it means if you edit something else other than weather tables, it is a way of showing you have a sense of how to edit wikipedia, just editing weather banners only might lead to suspicion that you might not have sufficient understanding of things... to implement editing of other articles than weather always helps to show that you understand how things work
- That towns in Western Australia are in specific meteorological regions, we do not necessarily need insertions for multiple locations in a particular region - http://www.bom.gov.au/wa/forecasts/map.shtml?ref=hdr - further, if you are editing within a country, state or region where there are a collection of towns that have weather boxes, there is alwthe possibility that the area/region has relatively uniform weather patterns where replication of details is
really unnecessary inside that region - to implement that, try other states/countries to get a good handle
- unsure of implementing format or styles - reverse engineer - always worth going to another article with the format that is interesting - go into edit, and look at the required items and simply copy ...
- you are most welcome to query any of the above, if you feel the need to do so JarrahTree 11:13, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
- I don't get how to implement Bullet Points 1 and 3- can you please explain these statements to me? --ToyStatistics (talk) 20:32, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
- Never mind, I did do WP:SIGNToyStatistics (talk) 20:33, 26 September 2024 (UTC)
- trust the range of queries are covered, even if I have misunderstood your query, and you have misunderstood my answers... or vice versa... JarrahTree 12:09, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
