WP:FILM June 2011 Newsletter edit
--Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:25, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
Hi there, I have nominated the discography of Nadia Ali for FL. The first reviewer opposed the nomination and gave me a list of things to change but has said nothing since then. I have done most of the corrections along with the second reviewer, who's helping me with the formatting. I was wondering if you could please have a look at it and suggest what more I need to do? Thanks! Hassan514 (talk) 01:17, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Article of the month – 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix; promoted to WP:GA quality
 The 1995 Brazilian Grand Prix (formally the XXIV Grande Prêmio do Brasil) was a Formula One motor race held on March 26, 1995 at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, São Paulo, Brazil. It was the first round of the 1995 Formula One season. The race, contested over 71 laps, was won by Michael Schumacher for the Benetton team after starting from second position. David Coulthard finished second in a Williams, with Gerhard Berger third in a Ferrari. Damon Hill, who started the race from pole position, spun out while leading on lap 30 with an apparent gearbox problem, which was later found to be a suspension failure. Schumacher's win came despite Benetton encountering steering problems with his car during Friday practice, leading to him crashing heavily and necessitating steering component changes for the rest of the event. Despite Schumacher's victory, Hill proved to be faster during the race, and seemed to be on course for a comfortable victory before his sudden retirement. Other notable performances came from Berger, who took the final podium position despite being delayed during one of his routine pit stops due to a problem with a loose wheel nut; Mika Häkkinen, who finished fourth for the McLaren team despite its new car proving to be uncompetitive in pre-season testing; and Mika Salo, who drove strongly in the first half of the race to run third in his first Grand Prix for the Tyrrell team, only to suffer from cramp and drop back to seventh place at the finish. Behind Häkkinen, the other points-scoring finishers were Jean Alesi in the second Ferrari and Mark Blundell, who drove the second McLaren. Blundell was standing in for regular driver Nigel Mansell in the second McLaren until the team could produce a wider chassis in which to accommodate him, as the car's initial cockpit design had proved to be too narrow for him to drive comfortably. Several hours after the conclusion of the race, Schumacher and Coulthard were excluded from the race result as the chemical "fingerprint" of fuel samples from their cars taken after qualifying and the race did not match the specified sample lodged with the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) prior to the event. Berger was thus declared the winner, but the race stewards' decision to exclude them was overturned at an appeal hearing on April 13. Schumacher and Coulthard were reinstated in first and second places respectively, but the two teams did not receive their respective constructors' points. The Ferrari team was unhappy with the decision made at the appeal hearing; Berger called the sport "a joke". The rule concerning the legality of fuels had been changed for the 1995 season, as had the new standardised equipment used for refuelling during the race, the drivers' weighing-in procedure and the conditions of the drivers' racing licences; all of these changes produced controversies which at times threatened to overshadow the race, as did the excessively bumpy condition of the track. The race also marked the first Brazilian Grand Prix to take place since the death of Brazilian triple World Champion Ayrton Senna the previous year; his passing was commemorated in various ways throughout the event.

Wikibreak edit
As some of you may know, we were expecting a baby and if you haven't friended me on Facebook, then I'm very pleased to announce that McKenzie Hunter Edwards was born yesterday, 7-11-11, and he weighed in at 7lb 9oz and measured 20.5 inches long.
So as my family and I adjust to our new addition it's my plan to to be take a break from the site for a while (not that my activity here has been anywhere near what it was a few years ago). I'll still be around, mostly as a reader, so I'll see any talk page messages but that's about it.
So I'll probably see you around in a couple of months. Bye!! Matthewedwards : Chat 05:35, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Map making edit
Hello Matthew, I'm partially back toe the tutorials. So did you ouput something using QGis ? whatever the level, it would be good that you upload it, and state to me the layers you were not able to generate. I may tinker the tutorials or change my focus accordingly. Yug (talk) 20:09, 19 July 2011 (UTC)
- Hi Yug. I haven't had a chance to sit down and have a really good play with the software since we last spoke. My son was born last week so for now I'm concentrating on him and not so much on Wikipedia. Things are going smoother than I expected though, so I might be able to spend a bit of time on it -- but not a lot. I'll keep my eye on the tutorials though and give feedback if I think of anything.
