I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian!

Note

Please don't try to host your fiction on Wikipedia.

I'll give you a week to save all the pages you want to keep, then I'm going through and deleting them all. You can make this easier by adding {{db-u1}} to each page once you're done with it. DS (talk) 02:51, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'd been wondering how to get rid of the stuff I had mistakenly hosted some time ago. Thanks! --Patricius Augustus (talk) 11:58, 11 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Nor'easter article

2011 Halloween nor'easter - hey, you may have noticed, but I wanted to let you know that your article was redirected into this article on the northeast US blizzard. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 15:35, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Glad I could get the ball rolling on this whole project. -Patricius Augustus (talk) 18:37, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Taoudenni‎ climate data

You have added climate data for Taoudenni in Mali. The link that you have used as a references is broken - at least from where I am in London. Is doesn't look like a "Reliable Source". Is there really a weather station in Taoudenni‎? This seems somewhat surprising given the extreme poverty and lack of security. Perhaps the climate data is estimated - but by who?‎ Aa77zz (talk) 17:48, 5 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

First off, the broken link has been fixed; thanks for alerting me to that. As for being a reliable source, Chinci.com is certainly not as solid as a NOAA or Met Office sheet, but it is solid enough to be considered reliable. I have looked at Chinci-provided data for a multitude of other locations and it matches very well with data from other sources. There are cases where it is way off, but this is usually confined to obviously shaky data, such as wild swings from month to month in terms of temperature incongruent with other places in the region, which this and most other locations do not have. Case in point, it's about as reliable as any other weather site. And in response to the weather-station-location issue, I can neither confirm nor deny that there is a real weather station there - all I have looked at is data and I haven't researched the matter - but there are weather stations in many locations across the world that are real and operating, even in remote and impoverished areas; a classic case being Dallol, Ethiopia, which had a weather station but was in a less-than-wealthy area. I wouldn't be surprised to find a weather station in any place, really.

Thanks, for fixing the broken link. I’ve expressed my misgivings about using http://www.chinci.com as a reliable source on the article talk page. Aa77zz (talk) 09:45, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good. We (meaning the WP Community) can flesh it out there. Wherever the chips end up falling is fine with me. -Patricius Augustus (talk) 23:09, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
