Minor edits

Not a huge issue, but I've noticed that you've been marking lots of your edits as minor. Per WP:MINOR, edits should only be marked as minor if they do not affect the meaning of an article. Even something as seemingly minor as this edit would not be considered "minor" on Wikipedia. I'm not criticising you, it's just a little tip. --timsdad ^(talk) 11:28, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Timsdad. As you know I am a relatively new user to this site, but please know I am an experienced moderator on other sites. I thankyou for you consideration as I get to know the ropes. I must say that some of the inaccuracies on Wiki are astounding.

And that's what we're here to fix. Enjoy. --timsdad ^(talk) 11:56, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Subpage on Talk:List of tallest buildings in Brisbane

Hi again. Regarding your creation of this subpage, this is not how we post messages on talk pages. I understand that was not necessarily your intention, you simply wanted to have a page on the current accuracy status of the list (I think). However, it's just not how it's done.

I'd appreciate it if you replaced your creator-requested speedy deletion tag so that it can be more easily removed than if I put it through another deletion process. Thanks, timsdad ^(talk) 10:29, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Timsdad, yes that was a minor error I made, it was not my intention to create a subpage. I was also unsure about the effect of deleting it. As requested the speedy deletion tag has been replaced. As you have seen I have made a few newbie mistakes, but I am getting the hang of it now.-MyFavco (talk) 23:42, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Brisbane Meetup 2

Hi there, just wondering if the Brisbane Meetup 2 actually took place, and whether there was any final write-up about it? If it didn't take place, please let me know and I will cleanup the page for future meetup planning. Thanks in advance, — JamesR ^(talk) 07:41, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!
