Yolanda Perez

I was surprised that she had an article. I love her music, especially the rap she does with Don Cheto "Estoy Enamorada". There are not a lot of articles dealing with Mexican-American topics, so I appreciate your taking the time to write this.--Rockero

CoCo Lee

Opinion value judgement? In your own opinion, would a different phrase that indicated that CoCo's character in "Master of Everything" sang "Di-Da-Di" badly *on purpose* been acceptable? Southsloper 08:30, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Good suggestion

Hi Ishel99, I should have created a section in your Talk when I posted to it previous, but I'm a newbie to Wiki. Your sentence suggestion on my talk page on how CoCo purposely sang "Di-Da-Di" badly on purpose sounds just fine. Should I take the initiative and insert your suggestion or should I let you do it? Southsloper 09:35, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, the edit expresses what I was trying to say :) Southsloper 21:24, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Bruce Rockwitz - I forgot to add that I've done a bit of research on CoCo's fiance, it's very sparse considering what I was able to find on the web, but may be of interest to people who follow CoCo Lee. Do you think he's wiki-worthy to post?

Western Australia dot-maps

I haven't yet made a list of the cities and places that I've made dot-maps for in Australia. I'll make a list on my regular list page soon. :) Bumm13 11:29, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've finished adding them to the list page. They're located here. Enjoy! Bumm13 11:43, 5 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Australian Curriculum

I have commenced this article and welcome any people with an interest in the subject, and knowledge, to contribute. I am especially interested in the history of attempts to develop a national curriculum in Australia prior to the present work of the Rudd Labor government. This subject of course has political overtones and elements of controversy, and it is hoped that the article can be kept factual, and that recounting of the elements of controversy themselves can be kept factual. -- Ishel99 (talk) 04:23, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A7

Hi there. I read your question at User talk:Cunard and decided to answer it, hope you do not mind. A7 is one of the several criteria for speedy deletion (CSD), a process that allows admins (like me) to delete pages without having a deletion discussion. As such, they are written so they do apply only to a few strictly defined types of pages to avoid admins deleting pages at their preference. A7 specifically is the one criterion (apart from A9) that allows admins to remove articles that will most likely not be suitable for inclusion because not every MySpace-band or personal website or "she is the best girl in the world"-article needs a whole deletion discussion. You can read the requirements for this at WP:CSD#A7. If you want to have a page speedy deleted after reading those criteria, you can use {{db-CRITERION}} (e.g. {{db-a7}}) to request it. There are a couple of essays that will explain this process in greater detail if you are interested to learn more, like the field guide to proper speedy deletion, Why I hate speedy deleters and the ten "commandments". If you have further questions, I'll be happy to help if I can. Regards So Why 08:12, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I also responded to your question at User talk:Cunard#What is A7 and why not newspapers? Best, Cunard (talk) 08:27, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Heya Ishel, thanks for adding the template to Braniff Flight 542 I wasn't sure if such a template existed and I do plan on getting that article in particular to FA quality possibly by the end of the week. So hopefully people don't switch up all the information immediately. Thanks again! :) --Kuzwa (talk) 03:45, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ishel99, Though you've marked the article for AFD, I hope you won't mind that I've nominated this for speedy deletion as a blatant copyright violation. Cheers, 99.149.84.135 (talk) 15:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good; I just wanted to make sure there would be no conflict re: protocol. Either way the article has issues. Best, 99.149.84.135 (talk) 15:49, 21 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tim Davis (musician)

I have removed the "under construction" tag, based on the degree of completeness of the article at this point, which I hope is OK and where notability is hopefully demonstrated. Tim Davis was quite notable during the 1968-1972 period, yet now appears to be largely forgotten--hence the motivation for the page.

Dreadarthur (talk) 04:02, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for your comments here. In terms of a reference in relation to his death, I have his date of death referenced, and the fact that he was dying from diabetes referenced via some liner note comments by Steve Miller. My recollection, from a Steve Miller interview that I can't currently find, is that Tim Davis lost both of his legs to diabetes, prior to his death. Since I can't support this currently beyond my recollection, I chose to describe him as "ravaged". I hope this is OK for now. I have to search further here.

Many thanks again for your helpful initiatives and comments here.

Your cryptic message

It took me a while to figure out what you were talking about. I have trouble remembering what I discuss onWiki a few days ago, let alone two & ahalf years ago. :-) llywrch (talk) 04:53, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Christian schools in Australia

Re your edit here - [1]. It seems I owe you an apology. I would never knowingly be so discourteous as to ignore a question posed by another editor on my talk page, especially one re admin actions. I can only apologise for seemingly doing that to your comment of 23 Sept. My only excuse is that I must have overlooked it amongst the other traffic on my talk page. Sorry about that.

October 2013

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Australian Curriculum a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Corporate logos on stadium articles

The following background was provided to me by the user concerned and is so detailed and so much appreciated that I am copying it from his page to mine for future reference.

Ishel99, I had a look for you, and your point about not using commercial names for stadiums in article titles seems to be Australian specific. For instance in the US, the pages for MetLife Stadium, FedExField, AT&T Stadium, EverBank Field, Bank of America Stadium, Mercedes-Benz Superdome, NRG Stadium etc all go by their commercial name. The situation is less clear in relation to UK stadiums with Emirates Stadium going by its commercial name while Etihad Stadium in Manchester goes by City of Manchester Stadium. Australian stadium names seem to entirely go by a non-commercial name in the article title, although some smaller venues are named according to their commercial name (Priceline Stadium, WIN Entertainment Centre).

Wikipedia naming policy is generally that the most common name for something is used for the article title rather than any other name (ie. Bob Hawke rather than Robert Hawke), which typically means that whatever name is most commonly used in independent sources is what should be used as the article title (see WP:COMMONNAME). The current naming of Australian stadiums seems to fly in the face of this policy, but there has been some consensus reached on a sort of naming convention in past discussions on the Australian Wikipedians' Noticeboard here and here. Similar non-Australian specific discussion seemed to go in the other direction (here and here). There's also an interesting discussion here about the article naming of both the UK and Australian Etihad Stadiums.

In relation to the logos though, WP:LOGO is pretty clear that it is acceptable to use the official logo for something in its article's infobox. The infobox template for venues, Template:Infobox_venue provides for this with its "logo_image" and "logo_caption" parameters, and as this is a standard template used across 14,000 pages, the location of the logo in relation to the image cannot be changed.

If you want to raise a broader discussion as to the appropriateness of using corporate-sponsorship logos in articles for venues, I'd suggest the Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board. It's a fairly active community, and as it's specific to Australia the users there will be more familiar with any Australian specific conventions and understand the naming rights situations with our various stadiums. I hope this has been insightful. Kb.au (talk) 13:24, 13 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
