Hi Sorry if some of what I have done on the sevo page is a bit bold for a non local. PeterJeremy has posted a Suggested Suburb Skeleton on the WP:Sydney/suburbs page. It looks like a good layout (even if it results in a fair bit of duplication between suburbs in the same:LGA, Federal and State electorates). What do you think? Maybe the info already on the sevo page can be merged into his suggested structure.

If you go to my user page there is a link to a draft for Emerton, New South Wales but I want to finish the draft as much as possible before dropping it over the existing article.

SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 12:18, 28 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm giving these messages to everyone I know, and it's not the wrong kind of WikiLove (lol)... Cheers!

I'm really happy that you got to be a p mod! I've been trying for a year and a half, so I hope I become one too. Anyway, my RuneScape name is Leo Dude10, so add my name on your list. Regards,   •The RSJ•   Talk | Sign Here 23:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. The page had been substantially changed in its last version, and I did not recognise it as vandalism. I will restore the article to an earlier version. Deb (talk) 16:57, 18 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is a backstage pass coming up to be followed by an editathon in the State Library of New South Wales on 23 November. This is the first time that an Australian cultural institution has opened its doors to us in this way and will be a special opportunity because the Library is providing: one of its best rooms; its expert curators (along with their expertise and their white gloves); a newly launched website (containing new resources); and of course, items from its collection (including rare and usually unavailable material) which we can look at, learn from, and use, to improve WP articles. For example, on the chosen topic (Australia and WWI), the Library holds many diaries and manuscripts from the period.

As you can see from the Library's project page, they have connected this editathon with their own work. They have already set out a wide range of resources to make things easier for us. Please sign up on the editathon project page if you can participate either online or in person with other Wikipedians. Hope to see you there!
