Lal Lal Iron Mine and Smelting Works

The user who accepted this article from my draft is currently blocked. So, I cannot ask this question of them.and you were the next user (adding some categories). I have noticed that this article never comes up in a Google search, thougn its WikiCommons illustration does, and it appears in Revolry (which just requotes the Wikipedia article text). I cannot see any reason why it never comes up in a search. Do you have any thoughts on what might be happening? Thanks in anticipation.

This is more of a Google issue than a Wikipedia issue. I think Google catches up eventually. Grahame (talk) 08:48, 6 June 2019 (UTC)

very kind of you to respond that way - no big deal if you dont want to that, it is not a problem - it is just over the last 6 months a few of us have been trying to reduce https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Unknown-importance_Australian_biota_articles down from 16,000 we are now less than 5,000 and we're getting there (ie biota articles that have at least as minimum default low importance), but as I say please dont bother if it is a problem, welcome back, hope os was ok !

I had left a message that could have been easily misconstrued, removed it, trust all is well.. cheers JarrahTree 09:50, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

I must say that I see some point in tagging articles to the project but less for rating the importance of them to sub-projects, even though that importance is almost always "low". I could stop tagging them at all if that was more convenient.--Grahame (talk) 12:35, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

please dont say that - its very important what you do - the idea of simply adding importance=low if you could would be fantastic - but no big deal, the frustration is well beyond anything personal - the whole system seems disinterested in keeping things going - your work is very important - please dont get me wrong JarrahTree 12:41, 26 September 2019 (UTC)

have been thinking about all of this very carefully, any tag is better than none, its not the follow up tag as much as the first, however done - that is so important. It is hard to explain here, but it makes your hard work even more valuable as it is found. So thank you so much for your consistent and persistent work, there is real value to it, more than followup tags, I will try to articulate the reasoning sometime...

"Place without a Postcard" Prize

Thanks for your indefatigable trailing after me creating Talk pages. You will probably be relieved to hear that my "Place with a Postcard" project to get all Queensland localities and towns onto Wikipedia at least as stubs is almost at an end. I'm down to the last 20-30 to go and they are mostly tricky time-consuming cases, like islands in the Torres Street, Aboriginal Shires that take chunks out of other shires, abandoned towns beside abandoned railway stations that all need special thinking about, and hence will be much slower. Then all I have to do is expand all those stubs I've made ... but for you, the deluge is over! Kerry (talk) 15:03, 3 November 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Hi, due to recent infection of pandemic into the ship and the name Greg Mortimer is popularly being known as the ship. it does not have article but is this draft okay? if not hoping for the help. see Draft:Greg Mortimer (ship). thank you. 181.53.12.204 (talk) 04:44, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

I have cleaned up the article concerned deleting a lot of stuff copied direct from the Greg Mortimer article which was not linked to.

content

unclear explanation on the article, can you add on coronavirus quarantine section on Costa Deliziosa article this: On 20 April 2020, Costa Deliziosa docked at Barcelona as planned, letting off some of its passengers, including 168 Spanish nationals. It then headed off to Genoa, with 1519 passengers and 898 crew members aboard, where it docked on 2020.04.22. This ship is likely to be the penultimate cruise ship to unload all its passengers during the pandemic, with Artania being the only ship left with passengers on board at the time Costa Deliziosa docked.

Solothurn–Moutier railway; have we met?

Hi Grahamec; I just stumbled upon the article Solothurn–Moutier railway translated by you in 2018, thanks for that! I live at that line, made some edits to the German article and also took the photos. When I saw on your user page that you're from Australia, I remembered that I talked to a railway enthusiast from Australia at Wikimania 2019 in Stockholm, but I didn't remember his name. That couldn't have been you by any chance? If it was you, then you might remember that we also talked about steamboats (although we in Switzerland call them "ships") on Swiss lakes. I wrote some German articles about Lake Lucerne's historic steamers, namely Uri, Unterwalden, Schiller, Gallia, and Stadt Luzern, and the Australian railfan who might have been you seemed to show some interest in translating these into English... ;-) Gestumblindi (talk) 23:21, 7 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks. No, I have never been to a Wikimania meeting.--Grahame (talk) 02:11, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks, so it must have been someone else... still, I find it quite fascinating that a railfan from the other side of the world has translated that article about my local railway line :-) Gestumblindi (talk) 22:09, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

I use Google translate and then fix the translation so that it makes more sense. It is a way of learning a smattering of German. I like visiting Switzerland, Germany and Italy, where I work on translation on rail-related articles. I have travelled on some of the lines, but not the Solothurn–Moutier railway, although I have been down parallel roads.--Grahame (talk) 03:01, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

It is quite a nice line. Nothing spectacular, but on clear days, there can be a fine view of the Alps, first on the left side between Langendorf and Lommiswil, then after the big Lommiswil curve on the right side. Near Crémines, shortly before arriving in Moutier, the view of the Jurassic landscape is also beautiful. And of course, there is the aerial lift from Oberdorf station to the Weissenstein, which is now a bland gondola lift instead of the original chairlift, which I think is a pity, as the chairlift was the last of its type (Von Roll VR 101) in Switzerland, and there were considerable attempts to save it. You might find de:Sesselbahn Oberdorf–Weissenstein interesting. Gestumblindi (talk) 21:30, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the route to Lianyungang–Zhenjiang high-speed railway, I've been meaning to learn how to do that myself! Is there an established convention for links, ie, instead of "Nanjing–Qidong railway" you've written "Ningqi railway".

Sorry for my slow response, so for the stations I used the first source for the names. I'll check over this again.

Nuremberg–Cheb railway

Hi,

I saw your reversion of my recent edit to this page. I'm cleaning up CS1 errors, and the semicolon in the non-breaking space code (nbsp;) in editor parameters of two citations causes the page to appear on the list at Category:CS1 maint: multiple names: editors list. I understand why you reverted my edit, to keep the e and V from breaking up at the end of a line. I looked for Hofer Eisenbahnfreunde e. V. on the internet, and frequently found it with "e.V." no space after the period following the e. I don't understand German punctuation rules, but the lack of a space after a period is definitely a Germanism in this situation. Is it OK to re-edit the page that way ("e.V."), or can you suggest another way so that it doesn't generate a CS1 error?

Ira

Ira Leviton (talk) 15:22, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

My main objection was that you can't have a rule that bans "& nbsp;" and similar. These are not banned in Wikipedia and if an alert system is picking them up as a fault it needs to be rewritten. I don't particularly care about this specific application.--Grahame (talk) 00:18, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

Some help requested with 'John McKenzie (colonial settler)'

First, thank you so much for reviewing this article. Now, could I ask you to assist me with a problem that I am not yet confident enough to solve myself? When I wrote the article, I started with sources that spelt the name as 'McKenzie' but now having published it and reviewed the cited material again, I have come to the conclusion that the descendants use 'Mackenzie', as do many other, but by no means all, sources. I now believe that he signed himself 'Mackenzie' and it is on his memorial inscription that way. Of course, spelling in those times was less stable than it is today, but in the end I had to go with 'Mackenzie',in a recent revision. However, that change leaves the article title inconsistent with the article. I know this can be fixed (redirected) but I have not done that before and I am conscious that I do not want to do any damage. Would you be able to assist me to make 'McKenzie' into 'Mackenzie' in the title. Thanks in anticipation.TrimmerinWiki (talk) 01:01, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

as you get to the 211k edits

thanks for all your tagging, and diligent oz things - the project would not be as well kept up without your care of the things that need attending to. I was a bit sensitive about the short tagging of death from pneumonia tags - I had it (pneumonia) diagnosed last year - but seem to be still here, so assume I am still alive. Also, I have noticed from my edits from ten years ago and more - the lack of the biog tag on cats that are to do with people. Maybe I am as strange as I feel at times. Best wishes, keep up the good work! JarrahTree 05:20, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

Allan, Queensland

Just FYI. I have emailed the Qld Place Names folk (with whom I regularly correspond about place name information) to get their views on the conflicting sources for the origin of the name, but they can take a long time to reply (they either reply within a day or it takes months). But the guy who normally replies quickly is on leave at the moment so I am not expecting a quick reply. Kerry (talk) 11:42, 22 October 2021 (UTC)

Invitation to sign up as a AfC reviewer

Hi, I see that you have been manually moving articles from draft space to the main space. During such manual actions, there may be steps left out, i.e. clearing the drafts of comments (AfC comments, HTML comments, etc), setting categories, etc.). Consider applying to be a AfC reviewer, which will avail you the AFC helper script. The script semi-automates the draft acceptance process. – robertsky (talk) 01:24, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Possible help for a new Wikipedia editor

Hello! I am currently new to Wikipedia editing, having taken up a university course where we are encouraged to work on a stub article and turn it into a B- or C-class article. I have noticed that you are relatively active on here, and are a member of the Australian history WikiProject. I have chosen Peter Nicol Russell who was a Scottish/Australian engineer and philanthropist in the 1800's. If you had the chance, would you mind assisting me with providing some advice on the article via its talk page? I'm also looking for someone to review and grade the article per the Australian history WikiProject or the Biography WikiProject guidelines if you (/you know anyone who) can help Many thanks!!

Elouera, Cobar, New South Wales

Hi Grahamec, I have noted that you deleted the hatnote from this article, and I understand your reason and happily agree. The only thing I ask is that the hatnote on 'Elouera Beach' is retained. There is a redirect page, just called 'Elouera', which redirects to the beach article. So, somebody looking for just 'Elourera' can be redirected to the beach article, hence the need to retain the hatnote pointing to the 'other Elouera'.

Weird edits at Hefei West railway station

Obviously, Line 1 and Line S1 of Hefei Metro are different lines. (You can read the articles of the two lines in Chinese wikipedia. ) Your weird and possibly Spam edit on Hefei West railway station is reverted by me. Please don't do these spam edits in future.27.124.38.198 (talk) 14:59, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

What a rude person. He should learn the meaning of spam.--Grahame (talk) 01:03, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

He's been edit warring across multiple IP addresses on the article for Tianjin–Weifang high-speed railway. Is your template Template:Tianjin–Weifang high-speed railway RDT accurate and are his edits on the template page accurate? It feels like he's trying to claim ownership. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:21, 18 February 2023 (UTC)

The map and the Tianjin–Weifang–Yantai high-speed railway articles are translations from the Chinese Wikpidia, which has articles for the Tianjin–Weifang–Yantai HSR, the Weifang–Laixi high-speed railway and the Qingdao–Rongcheng intercity railway (250 km/h), which has a branch to Yantai. OpenStreet Map does now show a separate HSR under construction between Weifang and Laixi but the Chinese Wikipedia does not have a map it yet. I don't see any point in designing a map for the extension in advance of Chinese Wikipedia. Perhaps the IP might put together such a map.Grahame (talk) 01:16, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

So, does it mean it should be displayed regardless of what this IP says? If the map is halfway finished then it still shows accurate information. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 03:14, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Yes, I think the map we have is better than no map.Grahame (talk) 03:17, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Well, there's two against one. I'd recommend you do it. I'm tired of the back and forth. If he reverts just report the IP's that have been removing the map. Considering how he call you out for "spam" shows very little consensus-building on his part, it might be best to probably request page protection. But thanks for your insight. --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 03:20, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

The reference to "spam" seems to relate to a minor edit I made to the Hefei West railway station article, which was in fact wrong on further investigation. I have reverted his reversion.--Grahame (talk) 03:28, 19 February 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:RB-SL templates

A tag has been placed on Category:RB-SL templates indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

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. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. Liz ^{Read!

Invitation

Hello Grahamec!

• The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
• We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
• If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

@Gonnym It is a pity somebody deleted the link without explanation. I'm not really in a position to look into as I am travelling without a computer. I will look into it in late July.Grahame (talk) 20:09, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

Consideration to assist in Plenty Valley FM page (WP:TNT)?

Hi there, Hope you are well. I'm reaching out as I understand this user supported creating the Plenty Valley FM wikipedia page. As someone who is closely associated with the organisation I unwittingly found myself in a COI situation as a new user to the platform trying to perform updates. The information in the page is out of date and in some cases contains incorrect information at the current date. Would you be able to assist with edit requests? I'm aware that the layout of the page can also be upgraded in a radiobox page template. Hope to hear from you. Wrightceee1990 (talk) 03:55, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

I never supported the creation of the page. I just added the project tag.--Grahame (talk) 04:10, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for the prompt reply. Would welcome any advice on how to develop the article to standard. Wrightceee1990 (talk) 12:01, 15 August 2024 (UTC)

I am neither here or there whether they deserve it, another imponderable for the mix...However there is movement at the station, maybe they are worth a tag or two... JarrahTree 09:41, 17 August 2024 (UTC)

Yes, don't know. I'm not sure if "content fork" is a fair criticism if the content doesn't exist. I guess they are a project of some sort and the content is sometimes interesting.--Grahame (talk) 08:33, 18 August 2024 (UTC)
