[edit]

Hello, you will have noticed that I have applied the knobby-ended stick to some of your edits! Late at night now so I will be back with a proper explanation within a couple of days. However, a good effort so far and pretty close so keep it up and accept a welcome as above; just a couple of things you haven't got the hang of yet Cheers (Crusoe8181 (talk) 12:02, 12 September 2010 (UTC)).[reply]

Fair enough. Always willing to learn. Billingd (talk) 01:55, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here we go- placenames in Australia no longer have apostrophes and have sometimes dropped an s recently (whatever some of the references may suggest!) - hence Donnelly -here is the place to check
-when we give article a category we don't usually add parent cats as well- Tributaries of the Yarra doesn't require Yarra River and Rivers of Victoria as the first category carries through as a subcat
-Tagging projects on talk page of new articles- as I have done for Watts River- copy/paste from a similar article is the usual way
-No article-type text belongs on category pages or their talk pages (this was what I deleted, you can retrieve the text back by using the History tab and look back at your edit). I understood your drift, but the text belongs elsewhere
-References (these are done inline)-I will do one for you on one of your articles; external links are for links about the article, but which you haven't specifically used to create the article; the VICNAMES link is not considered necessary, once you have entered coords it will show up on a map as existing, we should hope
and you can always ask for help, directly from those of us who have taken an interest or at Wikipedia:Australian Wikipedians' notice board‎

Hi

[edit]

Hope youre enjoying the place - over time maybe you might like to get an idea about adding the project tag on the talk page and some categories on the new articles ? It would help - best to look at some existing articles wih similar topics and copy from them - thats one way at least SatuSuro 11:35, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Noted. Will try. Billingd (talk) 11:39, 13 September 2010 (UTC) No big deal - no rush - if you are enjoying what you are doing - welcome on board - I think there is a lot of stuff about the cultural hertiage issues of the goldrushes over here in wa we havent even started with yet SatuSuro 11:43, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of South Melbourne College, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.slv.vic.gov.au/pictoria/b/0/1/doc/b01029.shtml.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material.

Thank you for fixing Template:Australian Dictionary of Biography Nick-D (talk) 10:32, 23 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Edgar Ritchie (engineer) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 17:11, 25 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ritchie has a Australian Dictionary of Biography entry. This is generally sufficient. Billingd (talk) 08:47, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Gold Rush diversion tunnels

[edit]

I didn't realize there were so many diversion tunnels made for goldmining! But it makes sense. Thanks for your work on this forgotten bit of engineering during the Victorian gold rushes. I am glad my panorama photo of the Howgua River at tunnel bend showing the tunnel entrance added to the article on the diversion and on the river. I don't do as much editing or contributing to Wikipedia as once I did! Takver (talk) 10:00, 9 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

May be of use to you

[edit]

There are various tools to simplify, make more efficient, or provide additional functionality to Wikipedians like ....Google book tool that coverts bare Goggle book urls into {{cite book}} format for you. See Wikipedia:Tools for more...Moxy (talk) 04:50, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll have a look at it Billingd (talk) 10:51, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Reformatting refs

[edit]

Hi, do you use a special tool for building/reformatting references? The reason that I ask is because I have just been through Category:Pages containing cite templates with deprecated parameters and fixed up all the errors that occurred on article pages. While doing this, I always check on how the error was introduced: and I noticed that several of them were caused by citations which you had added (the problem is that the parameter |access-date= is deprecated, and the parameter |accessdate= should be used instead). Since then, you have amended one of these pages again, reintroducing exactly the same problem. Since the documentation for {{Citation}} doesn't mention |access-date=, I can only imagine that you are using an external tool. Which tool is this? --Redrose64 (talk) 21:45, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Aah. Thanks for pointing this out. I have been taking them from the National Library of Australia website http://trove.nla.gov.au/, which provides wikipedia formatted citations for books, etc in the catalog. It is particularly good for older maps and newspapers with online copies in the NLA collection. If you look at http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/10730585, then click "Cite this" for one of the items you can see the source of the problem. I will try to watch out for this in future. I will also drop them a line and see if they can fix it. Billingd (talk) 01:11, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Just provided feedback to the NLA - Reference RSref33601. Billingd (talk) 01:29, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you --Redrose64 (talk) 13:25, 22 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The National Library of Australia replied: Thank you for contacting us about the citation generator for Wikipedia. We're aware of the problem and it's actually going to be fixed in the next release of Trove. I'm sorry I can't tell you exactly when this will be but hopefully it won't be too long. Billingd (talk) 22:27, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
and to follow up, I can confirm that the change has been made Billingd (talk) 23:34, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
One day too late... I suspect that we gave up at this end, because this edit from two days ago (third non-blank line) means that |access-date= is now recognised as valid, and this edit from much the same time means that |access-date= is now treated as an alias for |accessdate=. Oh well. --Redrose64 (talk) 16:11, 26 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oi and eh

[edit]

Interesting how we end up at the same pages. I actually transcribed it at Wikisource s:An account of a voyage to establish a colony at Port Philip in Bass's Strait on the south coast of New South Wales, in His Majesty's Ship Calcutta, in the years 1802-3-4. I have a heap of others done (see s:User:Billinghurst), and I do mean to get to his Zaire book, which interestingly is the first source that puts out the mistake about his name. — billinghurst sDrewth 10:16, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hadn't heard of him until earlier today. I thought I would spend some of Australia Day looking at primary sources from the era. I'm collecting some references with online copies User:Billingd/History of Victoria and doing some cut and paste. Billingd (talk) 10:31, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I have started Shillinglaw's records however, it gets tedious, so I pop in and pop out of fixing it; and a few other early Victorian pieces, and I a couple of works for Ballarat. If there is anything you find in your travels and is a full work, we can look to get it into Commons, and look to a transcription. Generally I find that archive.org has far better quality scans, those by Google often were done in low bit and their OCR is crap, and really crap for extracting images.

Re Tuckey, I have amounts of genie information that I need to write up and have published, so that it can then be used here in line with the requirements, and not snuck in quietly. — billinghurst sDrewth 12:31, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Agree on archive.org vs google books. I prefer an Open Library reference to an archive.org book. Billingd (talk)

Stop vandalizing Seconds from Disaster. Qantasplanes (talk) 23:01, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism is a nasty word to throw around. Details please. Which of my edits specifically do you have a problem with? The last change I made was to fix careless formatting errors that YOU made. (You really should preview and proofread your edits.) Prior to that I fixed some other formatting errors and added some wlinks. However, I will refrain from making further changes to that page as I don't wish to offend. Billingd (talk) 23:11, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your accusing me now? Hey I have more experience than you on the Wiki so please don't accuse me of not proofreading, I did but didn't see that I made a error. I aplogize for the inconvinience caused. Now shouldn't you aplogize ? Qantasplanes (talk) 00:07, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Mate. I asked you to back the vandalism claim up with examples, or to withdraw it. Look at the edit history. Someone may be having an edit war with you, but it isn't me. Lets just agree to differ. As I said above, I won't make any more edits to Seconds from Disaster. Billingd (talk) 01:14, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Sure. Qantasplanes (talk) 03:38, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguating Charles Robbins

[edit]

Hi. I see that you've disambiguated the page Charles Robbins with the edit summary that Charles Robbins (Royal Navy officer) was a new article and that disambiguation was needed. Per WP:DAB, a disambiguation page should be created if 'there is more than one existing Wikipedia article to which that word or phrase might be expected to lead.' Do you have any other entries you wish to enter into the page? If not, I am inclined to WP:G6 the DAB page for a move. KJ Discuss? 08:11, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Problem solved. I have added a brief page for Charles Robbins (athlete), who caused heaps of ambiguous links as he appears in Template:Footer WBYP Marathon Men Billingd (talk) 11:20, 14 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited PS Clonmel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alberton. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

A tag has been placed on Category:Silurian paleontological sites of Australia requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and it is not presently under discussion at Categories for discussion, or at disambiguation categories.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —swpbT 14:22, 3 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
