Sydney suburbs

Hi Michelle. I've noticed your comments to JBar about the refs. in the Sydney suburbs articles. I agree that the refs. are generally inadequate, but we're working on it. Some of us are going through the articles steadily, putting refs. in. It'll take a while, but we're getting there.

Ingleburn

As a resident of Ingleburn, I am perplexed as to why you thought it was in your great wisdom to conclude that the statement on the Ingleburn page was vandalism.

The comment re: bogan population is factual and of a neutral point of view since there are no accompanying statements suggesting that this is either a good or bad thing. As a resident of the suburb I can attest to the factuality of the statement and I would suggest in future you check statements more thoroughly before jumping to the conclusion of vandalism.

Thankyou. —Preceding unsigned comment added by OzWoden (talk • contribs) 11:11, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Suburbs

On the matter of adding ref. from a street directory, I suppose it's true that they're not likely to be challenged, but it's just a matter of giving the articles some refs. It all helps, I hope. Are you interested in helping out? We could use all the help we can get. The people who wrote these articles -- and I'm not one of them -- did a magnificent job, when you consider the number of suburbs involved, but apparently they were a bit overwhelmed when it came to the refs. Now it's just a matter of chucking in some footnotes. It would help if I had a copy of Book of..., but the copies in the libraries are generally ref books.

HELP

If there is a liberal party user please come to Nicola Roxon. We need an unbiased opinion as the labour members are constantly reverting her Jewish religion. They are stacking the discussion. GaryGazza (talk) 11:45, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

Trolling

I suggest that you stop wikilawyering in topics beyond your expertise. Please stick to what you know about, whatever that might be. Mathsci (talk) 01:31, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Please stop giving "warnings" while I am not editing mainspace articles. I am lecturing in Cambridge University at the moment and have very little time for WP. Mathsci (talk) 01:54, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

Citations

Adding citation tags to an article with no references is hardly an offence. Congratulations again on your brilliant barnstar: with it you have now at last received the long-deserved recognition for your scholarly and wide-ranging contributions to this virtual encyclopedia. May this honour help you to prosper in the future in all your intellectual pursuits on the internet. Mathsci (talk) 19:39, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Barnstar

Thanks for the Barnstar on Sydney suburbs. Cheers J Bar (talk) 21:53, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Tallinn

Hi Michelle,

what part of WP:LINKS explicitly prohibits the links you deleted from the article Tallinn? Martintg (talk) 02:46, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Okay, deleting personal blogs and websites, how do these remaining links:

• Digital Tallinn - Virtual tour (panoramas and photos) -
• Real-time Web Camera -
• QTVR fullscreen panoramas of the Tallinn city -

not satisfy "Sites that contain neutral and accurate material"? Martintg (talk) 03:07, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

Unconstructive Additions

I didn't realise there was a necessary population level for pointing out participation in Earth Hour. I gladly admit the specific business name was frivolous, but as for the town itself--whose mayor has agreed to participate--I feel somewhat slighted on their behalf. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nlarge1981 (talk • contribs) 19:51, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
