I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the Five pillars of Wikipedia and simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page or place Additional tips[edit]Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
Happy Wiki-ing. —Kf4bdy talk contribs PS: This is not a bot and you did nothing to prompt this message. This is just a friendly welcome by a fellow Wikipedian.
Thanks for putting the hide/show structure that you have done with the services page. It has significantly cut down on loading times on the page. --Arnzy (whats up?) 03:33, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
I appreciate what you are trying to improve the TL Bus Stations infobox, but is the next stations thing necessary? as we already got one template for it as per below.

TransLink Busway Network Page[edit]G'day Matt, if you're interested, I'm currently working on a Busways in Brisbane general article before its be posted onto the wikipedia mainspace. You are welcome to contribute, especially on information such as the early history, the opening of the SE Busway and so forth. It is currently in my sandbox on my user page through User:Arnzy/TransLink Busway Network. Cheers --Arnzy (talk • contribs) 14:12, 1 September 2006 (UTC) unblock 2[edit]unblock|I don't exactly ask for a unblock. But if this IP address 203.213.7.133 which is the same as mine is always vandalising and getting blocked I will just refrain myself from editing because every once in a while I came up with an idea but only to see being blocked and restricted from contributing, when the time has come for unblock I already lost my ideas. It is just very frustrating to see that happens every now and then.}}
CityTrain template[edit]If the template is going to be based on the others, I'd suggest creating a new template for now and work off that, as the CityTrain template is slightly different (ie the different lines shown and so forth) --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 11:30, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Corinda via Sth Bris, Ipswich/Rosewood, Shorncliffe[edit]Corinda via South Brisbane is the colloquial name for the Tennyson Line, as its referred to as that at stations, and in the timetables as well. I'm considering shifting the article to that name as its usually referred to that rather than Tennyson Line. As for Shorncliffe, that would be a good idea as they operate through to South Bank on Weekends/Public Holidays. But Rosewood, the handful of direct trains that run during peak operate in so many stopping patterns its not funny. It's best safe keeping it as Ipswich / Rosewood, with perhaps the (limited through services) sign at Ipswich Station. --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 13:25, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
CityTrain infoboxes[edit]Hi Matt - I don't care what's on the infobox, I'm suggesting that you get rid of the region as the focus of the infobox. Have a look at most other infoboxes for railway stations around the world - eg. London Underground, HK MTR, CityRail, etc. - the way their place is identified is by the line that they are on, not the region that they are in - that's what a railway station is, after all, on a train line. Perhaps you could integrate what's at the bottom of the infobox into the top? People who don't know about TransLink or CityTrain won't know what it is. It's easy to think "they won't get mixed up" from your perspective, but you do know the area. Most people reading WP don't. Also, on some of the stations the region coloured box conflicts with the images above it, making it a weird "u" shape type thing. That needs to be fixed. JROBBO 01:37, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
TL Operator Infobox[edit]I have already developed an infobox for information about the operators, but is only currently on Thompsons Bus Service. I assume you mean an infobox at the end of the page, listing all of the different operators like the Caboolture Line infobox, for example. I would be interested in this infobox. Although: CityTrain Station Infobox[edit]I've reworked the infobox around a bit, moved the TL region down beside the TL Zone, and merged some of the facilties (toilets, lift, etc) to an external link. I've already implemented it for trial at Brunswick Street and is also in my sandbox and the link for the template I'm working on is Template:CityTrain_Station_alt_2. What I might try to do is probably highlight the TL region which is shifted down the box to make the background go the particular color of the region involved, that way readers dont confuse the region for a train line (per most other rail infoboxes) --Arnzy (talk · contribs) 10:39, 15 November 2006 (UTC) Changes to Infobox Australian Place[edit]Hi, just thought I'd better let you know I had to revert the changes made last night. The reason for this was that the template was left in a broken state. If you wish to make changes or put them up for discussion I would suggest raising them at the talk page for the template, as it's become quite a complicated template that handles a number of alternative situations.

Thuringowa is a major part of this highway because of the Ring Road the highway will bypass Townsville and if you look at all the plans on the Main Roads Website it show and says the Highway has exits in Thuringowa at Riverway drive will also have exits at Harvey Range Road again in Thuringowa city and will meet up with the Bruce Highway at Mt Low again in Thuringowa city this is also why I added it NOT to start a Dispute as you say I am only adding true facts. I wont add it again until I have had a reply from you Thank you —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thuringowacityrep (talk • contribs) 02:02, 3 December 2006 (UTC). Hey, I'd suggest just add the major ones as on the map in the page and leave the others alone in the infobox, and sure it should be added towards the bottom of the page. Sorry I didn't go through other cases first. About the infobox, it just list some major places, not shires, cities, boroughs or whatever. Whereas I understand Thuringowa is a city in its own rights, Townsville should be noted as a metropolitan area like Sydney and South East Queensland not a city in that case. HTH matt-(my page-leave me a message) 04:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC) no probs mate you make a good point so i am happy with leaving it out of the info box but i will be adding it back to the list down the page a bit as thsi list has Ingham listed so i feel that a city the size of Thuringowa should be listed here thanks Thuringowacityrep (talk Infobox Australian Place[edit]Hey, I noticed you did some work with WP:IAP although that work made the template unusable. Please test edits before making them when making major changes, at the template is complex and well used (more than 1300 transes). Out of interest, what were you trying to do? --TheJosh 04:04, 3 December 2006 (UTC) I don't know if I was making a major change, but what I was trying to do. Well let me explain it this way. So there's quite a lot of info like LGA, postcode, etc. The last of which is places (cities, shire, etc.) I was trying to move "Suburbs around xxx" out of the table so it looks like other items like LGA, postcode, etc. I'm sorry my way of testing might not be the best way - there are way too many cases and I can't really go through every single cases, which is why I change the template straight away and see different cases (unfortunately not all). But of course I did look into the codes very carefully before making edits. Sorry about that, next time I will raise the question in talk page. matt-(my page-leave me a message) 04:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC) Bruce hwy[edit]mate that look sweet now bit odd having Maryborough as it only has 26000 people but im not going to touch it ...i get into trouble if i do and get told that i am trying to shit stir and use my POV...well good luck mate and hope your edits don't get changed back. keep up the good work (Thuringowacityrep) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thuringowacityrep (talk • contribs) 12:40, 3 December 2006 (UTC). Sydney Buses routes[edit]Hi. I'm not the sort of person who wails at the loss of articles they've edited like they were children, but I think your nominations of the Sydney bus routes were a bit lazy. Each is at a different stage of development. Three are, in my view, unquestionably worthy of keeping. Two are arguable. The rest could probably stand to be merged. If you really want to contribute here, at least put in the time to nominate each thing separately, so this discussion is facilitated. Joestella 09:17, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
I agree with you regarding the Moggill, Dutton Park Ferry and other historical services that are no longer running they quiet rightly belong in the Brisbane Ferries page. I am not sure about the Metrolink thing and will check it last time I caught a ferry they still had River Connections uniforms. The links on Brisbane Transport to the City Ferry page certainly need some work most people probably dont want a Mystery tour. I have a list of all Ferries made for Brisbane City Council from 1965 until the last one in 1993 with all their details. Many of these ferries are still in service and it would probably be more suited to the Cityferry, Brisbane page what do you think? --Matt 12:27, 16 December 2006 (UTC) Yes according to their history page they have been contracted since 2003 so if the focus is on current only details then no problem however I work for Brisbane Transport and in 2004 when the translink ticketing system came in River Connections was still contracted to run the ferries and mid 2006 ferry staff were still wearing River Connections uniforms, do you see the problem if someone reads the article then gets on the ferry and it appears someone else is running it whoever is editing the article looks silly. It is possible that Metrolink Queensland operate the ferries and cats and trades as River Connections do you see what I am getting at. I will take a trip on a ferry tommorrow with the opening of the green bridge and I will have the answer either way. The company Transfield - who ultimately own metrolink, and their sister company Tenex are both heavily involved in all public transport infrastructure throughout Australia and their respective websites are worth checking out.Talk to you again soon --Matt 13:54, 16 December 2006 (UTC) Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot[edit]SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles.
