Hi Graham. Sorry, I may have screwed up the display of images when I amended the DB Bahnhof template last night. Of course we can either fix the template to take the bare filename or require the full entry. I slightly favour the former because it means no extra work when transferring the data from de.wiki, but can live with either. --Bermicourt (talk) 18:05, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi Grahamec, thanks for adding the wikiproject Australia link to the talk page of Quadrilateral Security Dialogue.

I've provided 27 references from major global papers and the most relevant American think tank, giving one reference at least to support the material in each paragraph. Could you please provide a few quick and concrete suggestions regarding how I can improve the article?

Thanks for adding the "Supported by WikiProject Australian Sports" tag to the talk page of the Western Australia Roller Derby page.

I am puzzled as to how you rate this article as a "c".

A "C" article = Considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and address cleanup issues.

What gaps, and what cleanup issues? It considerably more complete than most of those that have been rated "B". As usual, I am amazed at the apparent irregularity with which articles are rated.

Amandajm (talk) 13:04, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your speedy response! Amandajm (talk) 02:44, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Well, I did something stupid, early on, and put up several articles for FA review simultaneously, without realising what a horrible process it is, particularly if someone appears to resent your contributions. I've never done it again. I might try it with some article that is not of major importance. Many of the articles that I've written, being large and generic, get a lot of hits all the time and need to remain as stable as possible.

Have you any idea what the policy is on articles of long standing, and importance which are well written and researched but don't have adequate references for today's Wikipedia? Th two articles to which I refer are Architecture and Cathedral.

Whoever wrote "Architecture" in the first place chose the scope carefully and wrote it well. It is relatively brief, but encapsulates what "architecture" is and has been over the centuries, without touching on matters of style, or giving any sort of detailed History of architecture. It does what it ought to do as a lead article: it summarises. However, every architectural student on the planet wants to enlarge the "contemporary" section by adding the name of their own favourite architect or theorist. It's all dealt with (or can be dealt with) in all the other articles about "green architecture" and so on! But it is always the "big one" that is under attack, and has random snapshots shoved into it!

Anyway, the original editor did a great job, to which I added info that filled a few gaps, or broadened the scope a little. But it is barely referenced.

Cathedral is a generic article with exactly the same problem. Whoever wrote it knew their stuff. And it is hard to come along at a later date and fill in references for a generic article, that attempts to state what cathedrals are and how they function, across denominations and around the world. If I want specific and detailed references for Cologne Cathedral, there are a thousand to be had..... but "cathedral' pure and simple, is a problem.

The question is: Do we have a Grandfather clause to accommodate old but good articles? Amandajm (talk) 03:20, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Oh, Maybe I didn't make myself completely clear.. this is about two different matters!

I know it is a hopeless case to try to get either Cathedral or Architecture to FA, or even GA, with such limited references. They would be demolished in the processed.

I am just concerned that they may be demolished anyway by someone stickler for the rules coming through and deleting anything not referenced. It does happen.

On the matter of FAs, I notice that when people get on to a winning formula, they stick to it: Cyclone seasons, Australian birds and a number of other such things on which one can write monographs. I'm not really interested in point-scoring, but it would be nice if some of the articles about significant subjects had higher ratings.

Sometimes I am amazed at the gaps, and at the poor quality of articles of top significance.

Cheers! Amandajm (talk) 13:36, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

That is so depressing! Well, I'm still here! I seem to have fortitude! But I keep looking at things and seeing challenges everywhere!

I have to admit, sometimes I just shudder and go away! History of Architecture was a mess for years, and I felt quite guilty about it! At last some nice soul overhauled it! About the time I was overhauling Ancient Greek architecture and writing Romanesque secular and domestic architecture. That was, in fact, the biggest challenge I have ever faced. What came out of it is possibly the definitive work on the subject in the English language. Yet I am very much aware of its shortcomings, as the remaining buildings are scattered, the German buildings are restored beyond belief, the French don't know what they've got (I mean, seriously, when I was in France in 2006, I discovered a street of Ancient Roman shopfronts, the remains of a Roman temple, and the recycled pieces of a Roman villa in the space of two days, either unrecognized or wrongly identified!) As for Italy, so much Romanesque architecture remains that a great part of it is unregistered. I just love the photo of a splendid Romanesque doorway, which (if it was in England) would be renowned.... but its in Italy, and since it is wide, it has had an automatic telling machine fitted into it! If the English had a few more remaining Norman houses, then the whole subject would be better studied! I wish I read German! Whinge, whinge, whinge!

Go and look at this, if you want to know how I amuse myself when not writing on Wikipedia: Leonardo da Vinci and the Virgin of the Rocks. The National Gallery, London is trying very hard to ignore this, but every now and then, someone gets online from some country or another and finds it so diverting that they read the entire article. Someone from Ecuador was going through it yesterday, and had read 9 pages, when I last looked. Amandajm (talk) 14:12, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

"Axes" is a puzzle. Is it "axes" as in "axises"? What is the German, exactly?

Sometimes translations can be close, but confusing. I came across a document that kept talking about "lapidary" marks in relation to an architectural work. It took me a while to figure out that it meant "mason's mark".

Amandajm (talk) 15:47, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Axes If I were you, I would look at your pic, and interpret, because translating it exactly isn't working well. The whole concept isn't translating. It seems to refer to either a bay, or an opening, and may be interchangeable. A bay is an architectural unit, that is repeated horizontally in more or less the same form, e.g. the bays of the nave of a church. A facade can also have clearly defined bays. But in the case of this railway station, it doesn't. So presumably the word referes to the openings.

I would tend to just simplify it to "There are 5 portals on the ground floor with five windows above them on the first floor", or however it should be described. The facts are still coming from the German article, but the expression must be made to work in English.

Hi Grahamec. This question is not aimed specifically at you but, as I don't know who to ask, I am hoping you can help. I write articles on local history in Wikipedia. Soon after I have started them, project banners "magically" appear on the Talk page eg. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:George_Watson_%28mayor%29 which you put there. These banners quite frankly mystify me. I have now seen a lot of them but have yet to really comprehend what they mean or what I should (or shouldn't) be doing in response to them. I must admit to finding the constant rating of "Low importance" and "Start Class" to be somewhat offensive, especially when there was never a single specific comment/suggestion on which I could act. Simply saying "not good enough" isn't very helpful :-( However, I had the impression that since one or more projects seemed to be saying they were taking an interest in the article meant at some time I would see others working on the articles or offering advice or something, but it doesn't seem to happen. Despite doing further work on many of these articles, there is no evidence that the project has done anything to re-assess them, or provide any feedback. Is there something I was supposed to have done in response to these banners appearing -- if so, what was it? I am feeling very discouraged by the constant appearance of these banners, given the amount of time I put into researching and writing the articles. Who or what are these projects and what does it mean when they "claim" an article and provide these non-specific criticisms? My intention was to try to complete the set of biographies on Brisbane mayors but, if the topic is considered so unimportant as each set of banners would seem to be saying, am I just wasting my time? Kerry (talk) 06:18, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

If projects are not active, why persist with these proect banners? I keep seeing all the talk about declining editorship on WIkipedia, and I have to wonder why people can't figure it out. It seems to be pretty obvious to me why new editors don't hang around; it's the constant negative feedback and unconstructive criticism. I don't want some randomly awarded barnstar (every child wins a prize) but I would appreciate it if criticism was in the form of specific suggestions, e.g. Pointing out other sources that might be consulted, etc. Does anybody ever think about the impact of project banners on editor retention? Kerry (talk) 10:27, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

I wasn't talking about positive feedback. I was talking about unhelpful criticism. The project banners say the article is not very good (despite being assessed once usually within a day of being created first -- why not wait a month?) and without a single specific suggestion on how to make it better. We might not be able to create a positive feedback culture on Wikipedia, but I think we can stop a negative feedback culture. Don't leave criticism unless it is constructive. Kerry (talk) 21:30, 22 October 2012 (UTC)

Quality rating for 1982 Escort Cup

Could you please explain to me the reasoning behind rating 1982 Escort Cup as being of Start quality? The Start Class definition is: "the article has a usable amount of good content but is weak in many areas, usually in referencing. Quality of the prose may be distinctly unencyclopedic, and MoS compliance non-existent; but the article should satisfy fundamental content policies such as notability and BLP, and provide enough sources to establish verifiability. No Start-Class article should be in any danger of being speedily deleted."

The article has each game and incident individually referenced, so cannot be said to be lacking referencing. The prose is formal and straightforward, so certainly encyclopedic. There may be an MoS improvement to get the results tables in a better form, but I would not describe the MoS compliance is non-existent. Notability and verifiability are confirmed by there being a couple of different types of sources, including a book and newspapers from different states. Aspirex (talk) 06:30, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

I agree. It's not a proper name for the line; it goes against Wiki practice and quoting one railway mag isn't decisive. A formal WP:REQMOVE is the only way to reverse it. --Bermicourt (talk) 19:58, 16 April 2013 (UTC)

Seidler

I thought it doesn't make it clear who the photographer is. Since it's taken from a publication, the photographer is probably not the uploader, since the photographer would have the originals and wouldn't need to use the reproduction from a publication. Also, GNU seems to apply to documents, manuals etc, not photos, as far as I can see.

Stanley Bruce FA Nomination

Hi Grahamec,

You seem to be a very knowledgeable and active Wikipedian interested in Australian pages and working with the assessment program here. I'm sort of new to substantive work on Wikipedia, but have worked quite hard on the Stanley Bruce over the past months. Well its now been through a fair bit of peer review to get GA status and now to try and get to FA status, and it is almost there but its nomination to FA status just needs a few more supporting voice to get it over the line. If you had the time and wanted to have a look over it and add your support, or review/criticism if it needs more work, that would be really helpful!

Hi Grahame, Thanks for helping with Classic 100 Baroque and Before (ABC). Now that User:GFHandel has retired, we have lost a very knowledgeable and speedy editor for these articles and I was worried they would not continue. Cheers, Whiteghost.ink (talk) 04:13, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Not that, whatever you say....

Grahame dear, Margaret Rodgers was one who supported the notion of the "Priesthood of all believers". But she was not a priest. Never, never, never suggest, in the Anglican Diocese of Sydney that Margaret might have been a priest. She wasn't and she couldn't. She chose to remain there, and work with the system, instead of fighting it, or getting out.

One woman who wrote a short bio when Margaret retired as Archbishop's Media Officer, actually went so far as to refer to Margaret's llustrious Her-story. We do little plays-on-words in Sydney, to remind ourselves that this person isn't quite up there with people who have testicles, so what she achieved, for a female, really is remarkable, isn't it? You would wonder how, more than thirty years after Germaine Greer, anyone could use such twee and discriminating language, but, "Welcome to Sydney!"

Margaret was a deaconess. I thought that she had been made a "deacon", but apparently she hadn't.

If you look at the various things that have been written, you will notice the heavy emphasis on her most recent role "Archbishop's Media Officer" to Peter Jensen (bishop). The emphasis on this role in all the current Sydney Anglican media, makes it clear that, ultimately, a man was in charge. Do I sound bitter and resentful? Amandajm (talk) 02:28, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks so much for your work going around and correcting these following the redistribution. It's a hell of a job and one I've been dreading. The Drover's Wife (talk) 13:59, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

In that case, I have something for you!. Incredibly useful data file buried somewhere obscure on the VEC's website with the electorate(s) (among other things) for every locality in the state. Where a boundary runs through a locality (Archerton was the first example I could find), it'll have two (or three!) listings for that locality, each with the amount of electors in that part of the locality in each electorate. That's been a lifesaver doing this - and it's been updated for the new boundaries. The Drover's Wife (talk) 14:13, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Graham, I've never been able to get my head around tags but I'm pleased you are always looking after me.

As you can see I struggle with a lot of things and so haven't even created my own user page but it doesn't hold me back.

Tags on QHR buildings

Hi Graham,

I appreciate your work tagging the Queensland Heritage Register articles currently being rolled out, but I've been wondering if you could hold off on doing them until they've been up a while. At the moment (and this has happened a number of times now) you're blocking any talk page conversations about articles from showing up in people's watchlists, because you run through and tag them as a bloc, and any talk page with actual discussion shows up in people's watchlists as just being another talk page with only tags. It gets a bit frustrating when I'm trying to get article issues discussed and the only way editors in that area know that there's actually real discussion on that page if they're reading my user contributions page. The Drover's Wife (talk) 04:32, 28 February 2015 (UTC)

Australia portal

Hello Grahamec,

I have been writing pages about Australian plants and I've noticed then when I do, you mark their talk pages with a quality and importance rating for the Australia portal. Thank you very much for doing that. I am happy for you to continue doing so but it must be an onerous (boring?) job. You nearly always rate them Start Class, Low Importance - I'm fine with that too but if you would like me to rate them myself, I can do that. It's nice getting my work looked at by somebody else but I'm happy to save you work if you like. Peter coxhead has suggested I do so for the Plants Portal. Let me know. Best wishes to you and thanks again for all your work. Gderrin (talk) 02:31, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

Where to find help to improve the class of an article?

Greetings. I recently published a new article on Warrick Couch, and you kindly tagged it as part of Project Biography, with a rating of "C" on the Quality Scale. Thank you for taking the time and effort to do that. My question is - where to go from here? Looking at the Quality Scale, "C" means that "The article is substantial, but is still missing important content or contains much irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant problems or require substantial cleanup." The scale's editing suggestions really are not terribly helpful, just saying that "considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and solve cleanup problems." I would dearly love to know what specific problems the article has and how to address them - both to improve this article, and also to guide my work on future articles so they are higher quality. Is there any way to get some more specific feedback about what the problems are?--Gronk Oz (talk) 04:47, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks heaps for the cleanup you're doing on these (I have to say I burnt out a while ago and am still working up the energy to get back into it).

I think the article as it stands is making a valid point, just rather inelegantly. It does point out in the next paragraph that Field was automatically expelled from the ALP for standing against an endorsed candidate (i.e. before he was appointed a senator - the act of standing was what saw him expelled).

Sydney Into Its Third Century

Hi, thanks for adding the WikiProject info to the County of Cumberland planning scheme, Sydney Region Outline Plan and Sydney Into Its Third Century talk pages.

PS As these strategies defined the shape of Australia's largest city, I also think they're of more than low importance, but perhaps only the Cumberland Plan has genuine profile within the community.

Category issue

Hello, thanks for tagging the Bushranger films cat. I was about to categorise all the relevant films when I realised that the Australian Western (genre) films cat has covered the same ground. But from what I can tell, these films are most often referred to as bushranger films, not westerns. This is especially true for the silent film era and many films that followed. "Western" seems like an American name mapped onto the Australian equivalent which is nonetheless distinct. What should be the next step in addressing this?

WP:AUS/ACR

Hi Grahamec. I've seen you working behind the scenes at WP:AUS quite a bit, so I was wondering if you would mind closing an A-class review at WP:AUS/ACR? The article is Australia women's national wheelchair basketball team at the 2012 Summer Paralympics, which has met the criteria (3 supports from prose reviews + image review + source review), but has not yet had an uninvolved editor close the ACR – archive the discussion, change the article's class assessment, etc (the 'Closure procedure' listed at WP:AUS/ACR#Closing_a_discussion). If no-one closes it in a few days, I'll do an WP:IAR close myself (I was involved in reviewing the article), but I think it would be better if it could be done by an neutral uninvolved editor.

Alexandra Kaur Bhathal article flagged for deletion

Hi Grahamec, thanks for adding the Greens Candidate tag to the article I created about Alexandra_Kaur_Bhathal . I wondered if you could help advise on the subsequent current flagging of the article for deletion.

I had created the article because, as a resident in the electorate, I couldn't find an aggregated summary of the information (eg policies, heritage, profession) that had been in numerous news articles over many years Bhathal has been a prominent voice and notable repeat political contender in our community.

I'm not a member of any political party and I think the article is written factually (and has been through three reviews before being accepted for publication) and copiously references unbiased, non partisan sources (and there have been more articles recently, eg https://theconversation.com/election-podcast-the-greens-fight-for-batman-and-wills-60340 and http://www.theaustralian.com.au/federal-election-2016/federal-election-2016-feeney-would-have-lost-without-lib-help/news-story/fb3bf78052aa5a5006bef4ac6b41a363 - does that give it a chance to escape deletion?

Hi Grahamec, thanks for the thanks and for you perseverance with German railway articles. It has taken me a long time to decode the German terminology around Moor but in putting together the recent translation for the raised bog article, I think I finally unlocked most of it. In particular that Niedermoor is really "fen" and that Hochmoor refers to the bulging shape of the bog and not to its elevation above sea level! Whew! --Bermicourt (talk) 14:12, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Dominic Fursey Bodkin - is he really an Category:Australian Roman Catholic priests?

I am not an expert on things Roman Catholic but I don't think Bodkin was a priest but rather a monk. He is referred to as Brother Bodkin rather than Father Bodkin. As far as I can see, he was a teacher and carer for orphans. I certainly didn't turn up any reference to him being ordained in any of the bios I found. But I certainly don't claim any special knowledge of the guy; I'd never heard of him until yesterday where he just turned up a few times in quick succession in my researching of other topics in what appeared to be "notable" ways and so I thought I'd do a stub article for him.

considering the sheer volume of where I find you have got there before me you have a much cleaner record than me for sure - every now and then I find some real furphies on my part - going back to my inadequate tagging of years ago.. JarrahTree 11:04, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

what is really good is there are few corners we havent checked in the oz project - for that I say thanks JarrahTree 11:45, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Thanks,--Grahame (talk) 11:49, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

Template:Main Western Line

Hi, your last edit to Template:Main Western Line has left the last section for "Dubbo" broken, could you take another look. Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 11:39, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

Curious. Fixed now, I think.--Grahame (talk) 12:31, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

the latest bunch

had a very idiosyncratic lead and info box local gov, new south wales. Nothing about Sydney. JarrahTree 15:12, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

I'm not clear what you are referring to.--Grahame (talk) 15:17, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

[1] - JarrahTree 15:20, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

True. Still this and the Queensland exercises are very earnest and to be encouraged. Auburn Railway Signal Box originally had CTC linked to CTC (TV station), which is a bit ironic, as I came back to Canberra from a couple of years in Africa in 1964, and watched the new fangled TV on our only channels, 3 and 7. Fortunately my main editorial interest is railways.--Grahame (talk) 15:32, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

german at that, my commiserations... The exercises are obviously well intentioned indeed... Thanks for adding things to things that I had started on the talk pages, I will refrain from tackling the well intentioned about some of their odd editing habits... But then there is always a rabbit hole so close in these editing areas full of red talk page signs across weird and wonderful subject areas. Keep the good work up ! JarrahTree 15:40, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks.--Grahame (talk) 15:46, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for catching that apparent error in the SHR text - it was used in a few entries so I've removed the sentence from anywhere it was used. The Drover's Wife (talk) 06:00, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

True, I should have read the sentence above.--Grahame (talk) 06:01, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

Thanks also for giving some of these a bit of a copyedit - I always give the auto-generated text a thorough copyedit before I upload them, but sometimes things get missed or things could be worded better than they have, and it's always useful to have another pair of eyes on them. The Drover's Wife (talk) 06:08, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

John Whitton Bridge

John Whitton Bridge is actually about the current replacement bridge - it just had an infobox for the old bridge at the top of it (above the one it was actually about), which was confusing and unnecessary. I removed the infobox and linked the old bridge as the main article of that section. The Drover's Wife (talk) 07:36, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

OK, thanks.--Grahame (talk) 07:53, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

I dont know about you

But its like there is a million items to do with NSW with no project tag (nsw=y) on talk page... what I find a bit more disconcerting is the town articles have been created but no LGA or region cat exists - it feels too big unless I had like a good NSW road map next to me... you any good with putting regional context into any of the million ?

Overlinking

Hi, thanks for your work on historical Australian articles. Please note that years, dates, and common terms are not generally linked on en.WP. Here's an example. Also, NSW means nothing to many readers: I've changed it to "Sydney", which will convey immediately that it's not in Cooma or Grafton. Tony (talk) 04:00, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Tocumwal line

Hi Grahamec. I was looking at the Shepparton line page and it has an icon for break of gauge like you might be looking for. I havent really got the time right now to learn the coding (i have a deadline at end of month) but might be something to look into?

Though, i think your representation could be more accurately describing what is happening at Toc. IM not sure if there ever was a dual gauge platform of if the lines used different platforms altogether.

Ashbury, New South Wales

You may be interested in Ashbury,_New_South_Wales#Heritage_conservation_in_Australia I believe it breaks all sorts of Wikipaedia rules. The reference given is in fact another wiki article and the author given is the editor who added the reference and not the author of the reference and nothing to do with the University of NSW. This morning I deleted another item he added where he added his name as the author of this whole section. This has been a hobbyhorse of his for some time.Fleet Lists (talk) 23:55, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

I have since resolved the problem - earlier this month someone incorrectly changed a wikilink to a reference which has now been reverted.Fleet Lists (talk) 04:49, 28 August 2018 (UTC)

If as you lurk at the edge of the finely increasing tagged biota world - could you please be so kind to actually add biota-importance=low  ? it doesnt take much to add, but the hundreds of incomplete plant tags do take time to follow and fill up - thank you for your help JarrahTree 01:14, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

wow your edit count you are about to go through to 185k - well done and thanks for what you have done for the oz project! JarrahTree 11:58, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

New South Wales railway stations

Last year you assisted in creating a number of redirects as for Werris Creek railway station, Sydney where the next or previous stations were shown as a red link because of a bug in a template. This has now been fixed but the links concerned are now causing a problem in this template which has needed to be expanded to cover this. Hence we are asking for these redirects to be removed - see [2] Your thoughts on this please.Fleet Lists (talk) 22:08, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

Template:Main North Line

the changes of the last four days have not improved it, and it now looks worse, not sure why, also not sure of the need for the extra heading wordage when it was working fine before Dave Rave (talk) 08:17, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

I'm at home, PC. not the collapsibles, they were fine, it's the introduced bits where you haven't provided the also other bits to contextualise the extra bits Dave Rave (talk) 09:13, 19 December 2018 (UTC)

too generous

looking at the edit history - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Polar115 to spoon feed is one thing - to have been creating stuff in mainspace like that - imho onto draft space everytime

anyways have a safe christmas and new year and keep up the good work JarrahTree 03:34, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

no doubt. Thanks.--Grahame (talk) 03:38, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
