Whitham, Charles: Western Tasmania. A land of riches and beauty. Can you check toe ISBN for this? Rich Farmbrough, 22:37 30 September 2006 (GMT).
I put together a list of (gazetted) homesteads in Western Australia last night. There are 5000 of them! I'll post it to User:Snottygobble/Drafts/List of homesteads in Western Australia tonight. Is it encyclopaedic?
I'm not inclined to red-link all the names, as the vast majority are completely non-notable and won't ever merit articles. I'll leave them unlinked and we can manually link the worthy ones e.g. Cattle Chosen, Glengarry (Western Australia), Kirkalocka Station, etc.

Hi. I think I've seen in museum displays that the North Mount Lyell Railway terminus was at Linda, but you have written several articles that say it was at Gormanston, which the museums say was a Mount Lyell Mining and Railway Company town, the rival before the merger. Do your reference books support this? Was the North Mt Lyell railway extended to Gormanston before being closed? Incidentally, the museums (especially Zeehan) suggest that North Mount Lyell had the good ore, but Mount Lyell had the competent management. I don't think I've collected any brochures or books to cite though, just my memory of what I've read. -- Scott Davis Talk 07:48, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
I see I@n has dealt with it. I wanted to give him a welcome, but for some reason the edit button is playing up. Snottygobble 04:17, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi all, I have just looked through a new release called A History of WAGR Passenger Carriages ISBN 0646459023 written by Andrew May and Bill Grey. As the name says is covers all carriages used by WAGR includes original photos, drawings/diagrams and scaled drawings. It covers purchase and where the were used (including carriage numbers). Its upto date with sections on AEA & AEB (current metro passenger cars) and the WDA, WDB & WDC the current prospector trains. Gnangarra 07:48, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Hi, and thanks for the welcome. Callophylla 09:26, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
I really like this article History of rail transport in Ireland and the animated gif file which shows the disappearing railway network. You're the railway expert here. How much info do we have and could we do something similar? (I saw a map in an old Early Days a while back showing the southwest timber milling network and it was enormous). -- I@n 09:43, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
I happened to see an interview last night on the ABC collectors show about someone (and his fellows) who collects train timetables. These often contained extensive info and maps. I will track down details if you think it will be useful. As I have said elsewhere, trams coud be included somewhere. As with LA, they were removed to make way for Highway/Freeway infrastructure with some protest. -- Fred.e 23:30, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
Found transcripts about trams from ABC RN, guessing that is them. Looks interesting. Guess I had better start a stub for that too. I believe the passenger network (train) ovelapped with the milling one but I will gather more concrete info. -- Fred.e 02:07, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Hello there. To be honest, getting this article to GA is not a priority for me right now, i was merely miffed it lost GA status on an apparent misinterpretation of the criteria. Thanks for your message, how about putting any supporting comments on the GA review page?? PS, who is Daniel that you refer to? regards -- Merbabu 09:00, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Just browsed into it - but mining history is a bit of a hobby of mine, so thought I'd try to help! DuncanHill 09:06, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Yeah, good to have another ally in the fight against dieback. Callophylla 10:54, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
Funny, I thought of you when I was leaving that welcome message! A reply to your email will be coming a little later. I checked out the Aus Lit article and agree with you completely. The performance focus is quite bizarre. Sarah Ewart ( Talk) 02:07, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
Thats why I left an appology on the bienews talk page, as the rewording chnaged the source of the name for the other cities.
Too much info on the folk music for what should be a summary, unless the guy rates an article most of that should be in Music of Perth article.
78's ill read shortly and get back 2u Gnangarra
If you're talking about User:789suj98e7fh8sfdf98udfu8dfu9sdufdsf8377dh8nsdsncskj, he's been blocked due to vandalism and inappropriate username. There is a policy on usernames, located at WP:USERNAME. Normally, when the person in question vandalizes, it's obviously best to revert/undo their edits. In this case, a username like that is immediately eligible for blocking due to the username policy. You may report such users to WP:AIV; that page is mostly for vandalism, but I've seen people use it to report username violations too. I hope this helps somewhat. (I'm off to bed, so if you reply, I may not be able to answer until morning.) -→ Buchanan-Hermit ™/ ?! 09:01, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Don't know much - anymore. I used to know quite a bit 10 years ago, but one forgets. I don't know that article well either. Wasn't he busted for some scandal with sugar while was a commander of the Salatiga post of ABRI? Then he was shipped off to the ABRI academy in Bandung for punishment or "summat". I have a good book on him written in the 70s - i read it 10 years ago but still have it. I'll add it to the reading list now Btw, what is HBIX? -- Merbabu 12:01, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
I can remember them in the old building mid 80's I was selling the daily news on cnr murray and barrack(84-85) Carillion opened 83-84, Cinema City opened 79-80, but by time I started driving tour coaches in 1989 it was gone and murray st was closed around then. Also lost the No.3 carpark as well at that time. The Padbury building, I dont know which may suggest it was well in decline by then if not gone, (I remember the old building for 78's on hay street but nothing about them before that) was it on the opposite side of forrest place next to the post office? Gnangarra 12:21, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Sadly very few others that are worth sharing. That one was actually taken by my dad just before we left for Alice Springs where we lived for about 10 years. I would have been about 1yo at the time. -- Moondyne 12:43, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Gave it a little shove its now a stub instead of a red link, Do happen to know its previous name.? Gnangarra 13:07, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for that. I blocked him. -- Guinnog 13:26, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Hello, SatuSuro - you left a message on my talk page , but I'm a bit confused by what you meant. Is it regarding a vandalism incident? (I'm a RC patroller.) Cheers, –- kungming· 2 | (Talk· Contact) 05:49, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
I can see what you mean - but there is at least a mention (albeit a brief one) of the Mount Read Volcanics in the Mount Read article, and in the (temporary) absence of a fuller account I felt it was better than nothing! DuncanHill 08:00, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Hi how are you? Thanks for your help, by the way. I know it will be hard because the media at that time was not as free as these days, I realised that. But hey, is it that harmful to "try" to get the info? Thanks again -- I mo eng 09:27, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Nice to feel a bit more included in the community. Mikenorton 19:57, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
Hey I know the guy - he's a newbie - and he dosnt know who I am yet - I am trying to fix it up for him -thanks for your help SatuSuro 15:43, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
I feel like I'm driving down a one-way street - the wrong way! I appreciate the assistance being rendered, though not sure what I can do to make it less difficult for my helpers!
Cheers (and how should I be identifying myself?)
I've been poking around the valley, added info on St Mary's and All Saints. Can you stop by for a read. Gnangarra 05:46, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much for your help with dealing with this vandal. I'm rather new to Wikipedia and as such I don't know a great deal about how to deal with vandalism. Vvitor 12:11, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
