Section stubs

[edit]

If you want to mark a section as a stub you can use the tag {{sectstub}}. If you want to request that a section is expanded (i.e. it has all the main information but needs to be expanded to be comprehensive) you can use the template {{expandsect}} and {{expand}} can be used on an article as a whole.

Happy editing. Ksbrown 12:15, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't write messages to other editors in the article space. You should use the talk page instead. Thanks. Waggers 15:11, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Satelite image

[edit]

Hi I have a concern with this one should be easy to fix, two things you need to include a release from James O'Donnell say it can be used and we also need to know the site that the images were sourced from to confirm that they are free as most of type pages they have free access but the image itself is copyrighted. The other image has to be deleted as the source page clearly has a copyright notice. Gnangarra 04:31, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I understand, and you may aswell delete that satellite image, because i made it ages ago but i only just remembered it was from google, and I am pretty sure that is copyright.AC Boy 12:17, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Help

[edit]

I arent able to help at the moment just passing through(back on in 4-6 hours) and saw your note suggest that you add {{Help me}} to your user page and explain the situation.. Gnangarra 06:23, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alternatively since you only have 260 edits maybe just create a new account. Gnangarra 06:25, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

[edit]

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!
