By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Preferably, use four tildes (~~~~), which produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my Talk page.

Again, welcome.--Cyberjunkie | Talk 07:53, 7 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

Why did you erase my modifications to List of closed Melbourne railway stations?? Somerton is on the Craigieburn line and is also the junction of a disused line that goes for several kms to join up with the Upfield line. It is nowhere near Upfield station. Please stop vandalising the wiki. Somebody in the WWW 08:19, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You wrote that I altered your entry in Closed Melbourne Lines, to wit the Somerton Line. I did no such thing intentionally. I added information regarding the closed St Kilda-Windsor loop line. I know nothing about the Somerton Line, and would not enter in anything about which I have little or no knowledge. If my actions somehow erased your entry then I have no idea how this happened, but please accept my apologies. Nevertheless I suggest that a polite enquiry might be more appropriate rather than accusing someone of vandalism. I respectfully draw your attention to Please do not bite the newcomers, and dispute resolution. On the other hand, I am keen to know more about closed railway lines, and will look for your entries on the subject. As it is a subject we are both interested in it would be a pity to be engaged in pointless squabbles. adamm 02:57, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well sorry, I was slightly in a bad mood because of some bleeps who erase changes for absolutely no reason just to be annoying. Somebody in the WWW 04:25, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Unilateral removal of the history section in ABC article

Hi Adamm

We have an unpleasant situation about to develop over this action by one "cyberjunkie" ("cj"), who decided all of a sudden that he'd move the entire History section of the ABC article to a new daughter article, without replacing it with a summary. The history section was almost entirely written more than a year ago.

Since this action on 12 September, the section has languished with no text at all under its title, save a link to the daughter article.The action has, in effect, gutted the article, leaving what appear to be insubstantial fragments without a core. It's must be odd to the newcomer to be denied a summary of the history and to move straight onto a chunky section on "funding and relationship with government" without knowing where how the institution arose.

Now, it's not that I disagree with him that the History section was written in greater detail than you'd normally expect in summary style. (A related issue is that the rest of the article may need to be fleshed out in the opposite direction to achieve satisfactory summary coverage of the topic—perhaps the optimal balance needs to be debated on the talk page.) What I do object to is

(1) his failure to raise the matter on the talk page beforehand, and
(2) provide replacement text with the summary style that he's using as his stated rationale for the removal.

The edit comment for the removal was "split (will summarise later)", whereas I'd have been pleased to see a summary written before the removal, for immediate replacement.

I've raised the matter on the talk page, and Cyberjunkie has responded negatively:

I think a total blank is worse than a long history. Please create a summary soon. Your action has resulted in damage to the overall article, IMV. Tony 11:16, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Whereas, I disagree. --cj | talk 12:41, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

I can see that this is getting nowhere. I wonder whether you agree that he should either undertake to write a summary section in the near future (I suggest three or four paragraphs) or reinstate the text and raise the issue on the talk page.

I'd appreciate knowing your opinion. The ABC's talk page is here. Tony 14:01, 12 November 2006 (UTC) [reply]

Thanks for your response. I certainly won't be asking this person's permission to write the summary (why on earth would I?). He undetook to write it, and hasn't done so after a month, leaving a damaged article. I'll be replacing the text by the end of the week if there's no summary.

Frankly, I'm fed up with his arrogant, sometimes threatening behaviour. At the end of my fuse with him. Tony 23:45, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, sometimes I lose it when a situation passes a certain point. Best I remain distant from the text at issue for the time being—that's not hard, since the problem is, at least, not as glaring as it was! Tony 06:46, 13 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Adam. No I don't mind at all. I hadn't actually picked up that they were different years when I did the edit, I'd been focussing on IMDB having a full date and place of birth death as opposed to just a year. IMDB is often wrong and I'd take use itsanhonour if there was a dicrepancy. Cheers. PS: any photos? Moondyne 10:43, 12 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Stjameslogo.gif

Thank you for uploading File:Stjameslogo.gif. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4. If the image is copyrighted and non-free, the image will be deleted 48 hours after 09:55, 12 August 2010 (UTC) per speedy deletion criterion F7. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 09:55, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:24, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

July WMAU Melbourne Meetup

Hi, At last month's June meetup we discussed the idea of setting up a Training Course at a University of the Third Age (U3A) to be held in 2013 and named Becoming a Wikipedia editor. In order to get this course up and running we are calling for volunteers to help develop the idea, and either tutor part of the course, or provide one on one help to students in the class. All local Wikipedians are welcome to discuss this at our 11am meetup to be held this Sunday on 22 July. Please add your name to the attending list at Wikipedia:Meetup/Melbourne 23.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Patterson Railway Station Looking North (up).jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Patterson Railway Station Looking North (up).jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", or "used with permission"; and it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
add the relevant copyright tag and if necessary, a complete fair use rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Whpq (talk) 17:55, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am somewhat mystified about this action because I DID add the rationale and the tag just like the following page File:Westonlangford-com-media-photos-100564.jpg I tried to do the right thing, and I note that there are a number of the Late Weston Langford's photos added in relevant pages.

You need to pay careful attention to the licensing of the source image. Not all Creative Commons licenses are acceptable. Ones specifying no derivative (ND) or no commercial use (NC) are not sufficiently free for use on Wikipedia. See WP:free licenses for a list of acceptable licenses.

Attribution — You must give appropriate credit to Weston Langford, provide a link to this website and the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.

NoDerivatives — If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you may not distribute the modified material.

No additional restrictions — You may not apply legal terms or technological measures that legally restrict others from doing anything the license permits.

Making changes in a reasonable manner includes standard image processing, including restoration, required to render the images suitable for printing. If you engage in significant 'photoshopping' of the images then you are not permitted to distribute the result without permission under the NoDerivates clause. For more information please refer to the license. The easiest way to attribute the photographs to Weston on your website is to include a link back to this website. For example if using image 100817 the link will be www.westonlangford.com/images/photo/100817/.

Images have embeded within them a tag that identifies Weston Langford as the artist, the Creative Commons license and other descriptive information.

The license does not just apply to you. It must also apply to all other reusers of Wikipedia. Other users of Wikipedia must have the option to create derivative works. A no derivatives license disallows that. If there are other photos from that site, then those photos need to be reviewed for proper licensing. -- Whpq (talk) 06:15, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can I put a link in External links to the photos then? Adamm (talk • contribs) 06:18, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That should be okay. -- Whpq (talk) 06:27, 21 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
