sheesh

I was worried a bit there - trying to answer to an archiving talk page :) http://en.wikipedia.org/Talk:South_West_Tasmania and related pages sats 00:21, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

rats - you now have supported merging whereas I have tried to argue to keep separate - that is about 3 hours + editing to verify why they need to be separate - if I get to hobart in a month or two you owe me two rounds of coffee or beer! cheers - good to see you still editing after all these years. sats 00:50, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

no big deal dont apologise - just take care with the sleepless nightas - when I was editor of the west coast miner in queenie and much much younger I used to go 2 days without sleep every second week - it was fine in my young days - these days I'd be paralytic.

My argument about the 2 being separate need to be edited into the two articles - 2 or three years not getting around to fixing it up was ok in the past when tassie arts could go 3 years un-noticed... :) sats 00:58, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

It was a dumb revert - the merge issue is not even noticed or alluded to - there are two different subjects with a very similar name - I'll get someone else to revert when I have a pair of well written 2 article drafts - most outsiders conflate the issue - despite the effort to show they are more complex issue than even most living taswegians can appreciate - the generation of people who fought over the issues are dying off... sats 02:52, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

How prophetic - one of my mates hit the Mercury obits yesterday, another one bites the dust. As for the south west issue, its gonna be a long haul - there are potentially four very large articles from what I see - just wish I had the spare time... to even think them through, let alone write them out.

The most material I can access re the south west I got when I was in Hobart a couple of times in the last 10 years, and earlier. There hasnt been much about it in the open domain like wikipedia, why Richard and Richard did more for some aspects of writing up about the west coast and south west than others... sats 02:58, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

Your request for rollback

Hi Wiki ian/Archive6. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Misplaced Pages:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! v/r - TP 16:12, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Stub elevation

The text and refs is almost Good article level - but lack of a piccie or a map is what refrained from the B, there are many challenged geographically who wouldnt know where the northern suburbs of hobart are/were etc - cheers for mo sats 14:35, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject Australian Roads

Hi Wiki ian,

I have noticed that you have edited a number of Australian road articles, and are listed as a member of WikiProject Highway's Oceania Task Force. I have recently started up a new project for Australian roads, with the goal of improving Misplaced Pages's coverage of Australian roads – currently the vast majority of articles are stub or start class. The project pages are located at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Australian Roads, if you want to take a moment to look around, and join up if you're interested. Thanks, Evad37 (talk) 01:51, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Infobox Australian road code updates

This just to let you know, since you're listed as a member of Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Australian Roads but haven't commented at the discussion, that there is a proposal to upgrade the code for {{Infobox Australian road}} currently underway. The proposal includes a number of completely optional functionality enhancements and some very minor layout changes but otherwise, the code is 100% backward compatible with the existing version of the template. The code has been built from code recently and successfully incorporated into {{Infobox Australian place}}. If you'd like to join the discussion, even if it's just to ask a question, please click here. Thanks for your time. --AussieLegend (✉) 02:14, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
