I noticed you blocked Bart Versieck/Extremely sexy for a week due to his editing of others comments. He has been doing this before, even after being blocked for it, but he hasn't done it since he has been warned the second time. I simply think that we should give Mr. Versieck another chance since, other than this, I have had a good impression of him and he does a lot of valuable work. Simply pu, I think he will stop, and if he does it again I would suggest another block. Editor of the wiki 02:03, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Hi Moondyne,
I was wondering if you thought that ages in years and days on individuals of living people would be a violation of WP:V. I just woke up, so I'll expand upon this later, but my basic thought is that since we cannot verify every day that they survived until the next day every day (unless we happen to be getting daily updates about person). Indeed, often times a person has been dead a couple days before the news breaks so, in many cases, we are presenting unverifiable information that is false as a fact (this has been particularly true of articles such as List of the verified oldest people). Of course, it's a thin line to walk since, in terms of categories such as Category:Living people, we have to assume alive unless they're 90+ and haven't been heard from in more than a few years. So obviously in the span between when a person dies and when we are able to update the page, the "living" category is false. But in the latter case, the greater "sin" is listing someone as not alive in the absence of other information. I guess my big point is that with years AND days, if the person's death goes unnoticed for a few days, we are more pointedly and specifically wrong, and I do feel that it's a bit unnecessary on the pages of the people themselves.
The reason I'm bringing this up now is the slippery slope. I didn't mind it so much on Edna Parker's page, since it does sort of make sense to measure the OLDEST person in the world in years and days (since days can make the distinction), but my problem is where to draw the line because you could (although I wouldn't) argue that the same argument applies to the difference between second and third. But when does it stop? If I went to, say, Ron Jeremy, and tried to use "age in years and days" I'd be reverted in the blink of an eye. But even if I accept that we should use "years in age and days" in certain cases, where do we draw the line? Cheers, CP 15:23, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi Moondyne! (Owyergoin?) I still have "Notable Rhodes Scholars" on my watchlist, and there's been a bit of activity on the Talk page this week. The number of redlinks on the page itself is much the same as in Sept07. However, interestingly (to me), people adding new stuff are adding blue links, so I think you and I are justified in thinking we've had some influence! What's your level of interest/involvement in the page these days? Cheers, Pdfpdf ( talk) 12:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey Moondyne,
I'm bringing this up with you because I'm interested in an informal opinion. Does this user page seem like an attack page to you? I wanted to get a second opinion before I do anything serious, because I might be overreacting, but it seems like it could be trouble, particularly with a picture of the person in question. Cheers, CP 04:01, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
I notice you're a member of WP:AUSMUS, could you clarify a query about Categories for me?
Does every band/solo artist who is inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame automatically also become an ARIA Award Winner? Or do they have to have won an ARIA award under their own steam to qualify for a CAT as ARIA Award winner?
Since 2005 there's been a semi-separation of the Award cermonies and the waters are getting murky.
For example: last year Nick Cave entered HoF at the ARIA Awards but Hoodoo Gurus (& other acts) entered HoF earlier in the year at the separate HoF induction. Cave, of course, had won a number of ARIAs prior to his HoF whereas HG, as a band, had not. Should Gurus also have a CAT for Aria Award winner since they're HoF?
Recently I've been working (with Dan arndt) on articles about HoF band/artists and have noticed some have both CATs but some have only the HoF inductee CAT, hence the question. Shaidar cuebiyar ( talk) 08:15, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry if I'm throwing all these at you but I would like some guidelines in this area: I'm keen to see all ARIA HoF articles up to B-class (at least) but am unsure how to proceed with the HoF CAT situation. Shaidar cuebiyar ( talk) 11:04, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Problem area - I started the Coastal regions of Western Australia art about a fortnight after Hesp had started his marine bio region stubs (which still need quite a bit of work) which i hadnt cottoned on to mind you until today :), and so there is the IM thingy which gets complicated when it comes to the zones that I had got from some 2003 material on coastal regions - and there is the potential to have coastal regions understood as by the earlier 2003 coastal manual map, and then the more recent IM thingo - similarly my way of thinking with the whole north west thing is to have a relatively easy grab bag of first a regional art that leads off to the range of the gas fields etc and the complications - thats the way i am thinking - and am hoping over time to do the same with the shark bay material, and will probably go back to the western tas and the south west tas to do the same - an easy to catch general term - and then the complications after that. I hope that explains the logic and thinking - but as we know the actual practice is possibly at a different address :( Satu Suro 06:44, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, Ive recently joined the WP:WikiProject Swimming team. Im committed to getting on top of the project. Since you have listed yourself as a participant i thought i'd let you know what i've done. Ive got a bot thats going through the relevant catagouries that apply to the project and tagging them with our banner. Ive done all the stub class articles and assessed them automaticlly, and im starting on the 3000 other articles that ive identified. So this will mean that we will have all the articles in the scope of the project together and we can start working on them. So if you have any spare time theres going to be thousands of articles that will need assessing. There are around 2000 articles Just in Stub-Class swimming articles, and most of these will need the importance assessed. I think it's important we get all this assessing done, so we can start working on the articles.
Don't fell pressured to start assessing articles, i just thought that since theres going to be so many articles, you should know that theres heaps of work that needs to be done, ill be trying my best once my exams are finished. Remember many hands make light work.

Thanks for the typo fix and creating the Bakers Creek article. There were four red links in the embassy article and I had taken care of three of them. ( Dennis Richardson (diplomat), David Stuart (diplomat), & Ben Shearer) I'm not sure if you're familiar with Richardson, but I've add multiple sources to the article's talk page and am planning on making it a GA (or least a good DYK). If you want to look over it once I'm done and see where improvements could be made, I'd appreciate it. If you feel the urge to help expand the article <wink>, that would be nice as well. Cheers!

Thanks for the recent edit - was just discussing with SatuSuro that I felt he had added way too many headings - then 'bang' you can and fix it.

Having looked at some stubs last night - do you think that all power stations should belong to Category:Energy in Western Australia as well? It seems to make sense - but thought id ask first - lso it loks like the cat of stubs of powerstations and the list of powerstations might need a once over as well :( Satu Suro 04:56, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
I have a copy somewhere as well if anyone wants one or maybe i should contribute from it once i find it :)
Re the category organisation suggested above - Please -it'd be great if you can - i think tassie is a good set to look at as well as we have complications due to dams and power stations etc - the fact that the journos have a handle on it (was power stuff) for the current crisis and we are caught with just fixing up the basics (hey you doing a great job with that too!) - i reckons anything to show that we know where thevenard is, where all the pipelines are and the various 'subsidiary pipelines is also a critical one - thats in the pdf which i referred to somewhere - will find it later Satu Suro 05:36, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Well stated and very salient point and no probs no bother - if i see you havent wandered into the power stations of the golden west at some point either art or cat i will probably have a tinkle with an odd bit or two :) if i dont get lost in the foos and boos or mrs sats schemes :) Satu Suro 08:26, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I would just say do it - they have been a horrid little pile of rubbish untouched for too long a merge and cleanup would be great - I think i had some idea of keeping them separate a long time ago - cannot even remember the reason apart from the fact - i think i knew of some cites about the the oil fields and australias unbelievably aggressive nature in the creation of the treaty - i never tracked them down at the time - as always its always oil that does that stuff - but hey it needs to happen - thanks for the resolve Satu Suro 08:50, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Moondyne, I see you have extensive Wiki experience. Do you have a point of view on the following? Is there a way of renaming the two pages to achieve my proposal? or do I have to cut and carry the current information? I see that you created the "Cape Peron, Western Australia" page merely as a re-direct to "Point Peron, Western Australia". I have in mind to reverse this, that is to make the Point Peron page solely a re-direct to the Cape Peron page and to transfer all the information to the Cape Peron page. There is no doubt that the official title of the headland is "Cape Peron" the title recognised by the W. A. Government Land Department ("Landgate") and appearing on official State & Commonwealth maps. There is however a small headland on the south West of the Cape, neither the most Westerly or the most Northerly (or Southerly) point of the Cape, that has been given the name "Point Peron". Literature shows an increasing use of the name Cape Peron and a corresponding decrease in the term Point Peron. The new page would recognise the historical use of the term "Point Peron". By the way I had originally intended to put some substance into the "Peron" suburb page without duplcating the whole Cape Peron page. -- Lanyon ( talk) 07:09, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi Moondyne! (Owyergoin?) I still have "Notable Rhodes Scholars" on my watchlist, and there's been a bit of activity on the Talk page this week. The number of redlinks on the page itself is much the same as in Sept07. However, interestingly (to me), people adding new stuff are adding blue links, so I think you and I are justified in thinking we've had some influence! What's your level of interest/involvement in the page these days? Cheers, Pdfpdf ( talk) 12:12, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Hello Moondyne. I have had to give Bart his three month block for disruptive talk page edits. You can view the details on his talk page. Cheers, CP 00:57, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

Hey Moondyne,
I'm bringing this up with you because I'm interested in an informal opinion. Does this user page seem like an attack page to you? I wanted to get a second opinion before I do anything serious, because I might be overreacting, but it seems like it could be trouble, particularly with a picture of the person in question. Cheers, CP 04:01, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
I notice you're a member of WP:AUSMUS, could you clarify a query about Categories for me?
Does every band/solo artist who is inducted into the ARIA Hall of Fame automatically also become an ARIA Award Winner? Or do they have to have won an ARIA award under their own steam to qualify for a CAT as ARIA Award winner?
Since 2005 there's been a semi-separation of the Award cermonies and the waters are getting murky.
For example: last year Nick Cave entered HoF at the ARIA Awards but Hoodoo Gurus (& other acts) entered HoF earlier in the year at the separate HoF induction. Cave, of course, had won a number of ARIAs prior to his HoF whereas HG, as a band, had not. Should Gurus also have a CAT for Aria Award winner since they're HoF?
Recently I've been working (with Dan arndt) on articles about HoF band/artists and have noticed some have both CATs but some have only the HoF inductee CAT, hence the question. Shaidar cuebiyar ( talk) 08:15, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm sorry if I'm throwing all these at you but I would like some guidelines in this area: I'm keen to see all ARIA HoF articles up to B-class (at least) but am unsure how to proceed with the HoF CAT situation. Shaidar cuebiyar ( talk) 11:04, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
You return and dive into Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/Cleanup listing - hey thats brave! Satu Suro 10:52, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Problem area - I started the Coastal regions of Western Australia art about a fortnight after Hesp had started his marine bio region stubs (which still need quite a bit of work) which i hadnt cottoned on to mind you until today :), and so there is the IM thingy which gets complicated when it comes to the zones that I had got from some 2003 material on coastal regions - and there is the potential to have coastal regions understood as by the earlier 2003 coastal manual map, and then the more recent IM thingo - similarly my way of thinking with the whole north west thing is to have a relatively easy grab bag of first a regional art that leads off to the range of the gas fields etc and the complications - thats the way i am thinking - and am hoping over time to do the same with the shark bay material, and will probably go back to the western tas and the south west tas to do the same - an easy to catch general term - and then the complications after that. I hope that explains the logic and thinking - but as we know the actual practice is possibly at a different address :( Satu Suro 06:44, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi there, Ive recently joined the WP:WikiProject Swimming team. Im committed to getting on top of the project. Since you have listed yourself as a participant i thought i'd let you know what i've done. Ive got a bot thats going through the relevant catagouries that apply to the project and tagging them with our banner. Ive done all the stub class articles and assessed them automaticlly, and im starting on the 3000 other articles that ive identified. So this will mean that we will have all the articles in the scope of the project together and we can start working on them. So if you have any spare time theres going to be thousands of articles that will need assessing. There are around 2000 articles Just in Stub-Class swimming articles, and most of these will need the importance assessed. I think it's important we get all this assessing done, so we can start working on the articles.
Don't fell pressured to start assessing articles, i just thought that since theres going to be so many articles, you should know that theres heaps of work that needs to be done, ill be trying my best once my exams are finished. Remember many hands make light work.

Thanks for the typo fix and creating the Bakers Creek article. There were four red links in the embassy article and I had taken care of three of them. ( Dennis Richardson (diplomat), David Stuart (diplomat), & Ben Shearer) I'm not sure if you're familiar with Richardson, but I've add multiple sources to the article's talk page and am planning on making it a GA (or least a good DYK). If you want to look over it once I'm done and see where improvements could be made, I'd appreciate it. If you feel the urge to help expand the article <wink>, that would be nice as well. Cheers!

If it could link in with the north west shelf stub - as a regional indicator - the north west stub is enough to get some eds very edgy :) (poor grant had apoplexy over it a few times i think) Satu Suro 15:46, 14 June 2008 (UTC) doh! found the link - sorry about that - hey a good start :) Satu Suro 15:48, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
Nope - gone no longer with us - we gotta struggle it out without zamphuor unfortunately he is off elsewhere - :( Satu Suro 03:21, 15 June 2008 (UTC) What would you say the timeline could be used as a separate list/timeline - or in the north west shelf art? Satu Suro 03:23, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
At cannnig basin i find offensive (having worked as a gfa in the past :( ) - it should be geological template if at all - am about to remove it - trust you agree that geographical template is inappopriate - and hey great work on the basins ! Satu Suro 07:45, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for the recent edit - was just discussing with SatuSuro that I felt he had added way too many headings - then 'bang' you can and fix it. Am working on an article for the Old Court House, which looks like I'll have to fix up the article on Supreme Court Gardens which are also heritage listed - the work never ends. Dan arndt ( talk) 08:53, 17 June 2008 (UTC) Hmm - well the article looks better for it - thats what counts in the end :) Satu Suro 08:55, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Having looked at some stubs last night - do you think that all power stations should belong to Category:Energy in Western Australia as well? It seems to make sense - but thought id ask first - lso it loks like the cat of stubs of powerstations and the list of powerstations might need a once over as well :( Satu Suro 04:56, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
I have a copy somewhere as well if anyone wants one or maybe i should contribute from it once i find it :)
Re the category organisation suggested above - Please -it'd be great if you can - i think tassie is a good set to look at as well as we have complications due to dams and power stations etc - the fact that the journos have a handle on it (was power stuff) for the current crisis and we are caught with just fixing up the basics (hey you doing a great job with that too!) - i reckons anything to show that we know where thevenard is, where all the pipelines are and the various 'subsidiary pipelines is also a critical one - thats in the pdf which i referred to somewhere - will find it later Satu Suro 05:36, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Well stated and very salient point and no probs no bother - if i see you havent wandered into the power stations of the golden west at some point either art or cat i will probably have a tinkle with an odd bit or two :) if i dont get lost in the foos and boos or mrs sats schemes :) Satu Suro 08:26, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I would just say do it - they have been a horrid little pile of rubbish untouched for too long a merge and cleanup would be great - I think i had some idea of keeping them separate a long time ago - cannot even remember the reason apart from the fact - i think i knew of some cites about the the oil fields and australias unbelievably aggressive nature in the creation of the treaty - i never tracked them down at the time - as always its always oil that does that stuff - but hey it needs to happen - thanks for the resolve Satu Suro 08:50, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Moondyne, I see you have extensive Wiki experience. Do you have a point of view on the following? Is there a way of renaming the two pages to achieve my proposal? or do I have to cut and carry the current information? I see that you created the "Cape Peron, Western Australia" page merely as a re-direct to "Point Peron, Western Australia". I have in mind to reverse this, that is to make the Point Peron page solely a re-direct to the Cape Peron page and to transfer all the information to the Cape Peron page. There is no doubt that the official title of the headland is "Cape Peron" the title recognised by the W. A. Government Land Department ("Landgate") and appearing on official State & Commonwealth maps. There is however a small headland on the south West of the Cape, neither the most Westerly or the most Northerly (or Southerly) point of the Cape, that has been given the name "Point Peron". Literature shows an increasing use of the name Cape Peron and a corresponding decrease in the term Point Peron. The new page would recognise the historical use of the term "Point Peron". By the way I had originally intended to put some substance into the "Peron" suburb page without duplcating the whole Cape Peron page. -- Lanyon ( talk) 07:09, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
