Welcome
Hi Mark, and welcome to the 'pedia. Anything you need to know, just ask. You were quite right about that redirect, by the way. I made the change. Cheers, and I hope you stick around. Tannin 08:52, 14 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Bob Hawke
With regard to Bob Hawke feel free to put in the wording you want - by the way the 2007 election will be for Howard what the 1961 election was for Menzies almost - it will be 11 years since there was a Labor Government (12 years in 1961) and 14 years since Labor won an election (15 years in 1961).

Transfinite induction
- The first step above is actually redundant. If P(b) follows from the truth of P(a) for all a < b, then it is simply a special case to say that P(0) is true, since it is vacuously true that P(a) holds for all a < 0.
You deleted this paragraph from transfinite induction. I think you completely failed to understand it. Suppose I prove that if { for all a < 0, P(a) }, then P(0). Since there exists no a < 0, it is vacuously true that for all a < 0, P(a). Consequenly my proof that if for all a < 0, P(a) then P(0) necessarily implies that P(0) is true. That is a way to prove P(0).
Now suppose I prove that for any b, if { for all a < b, P(a) }, then P(b). I said for any b, and that implies in particular for b = 0. Thus that single step proves both P(0) and induction step. Michael Hardy 23:18, 3 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Music in Xena
Please do not re-add the section on "The Music" to the article Xena: Warrior Princess. That section is copied from the website http://www.historyfan.com/music1.html . Wikipedia cannot use it without the express permission of the material's author. Please see Wikipedia:Copyrights for more details on Wikipedia and copyrights.

Hugo Kelly
Hi Mark - Mayne's allegation that Hugo Kelly wrote his own Wikipedia entry is entirely false. I am not Hugo Kelly - much of the material in the original article was taken from an interview I did with him which is on my blog - http://bekk.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_bekk_archive.html
(scroll down, it's called The Sleeping Giant of Australia's Media Scene)
The IP address you've suggested is him is also me - it's my work computer. Can you please remove the autobiographical thingies from the entry. HighPriestess of the PDRGI 04:06, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
- I would agree here, and to be honest, even if it was Hugo Kelly, what of it? So long as they write neutrally and in an encylopedic tone then I think we should keep the material. However, I don't agree that we should be using a straight copy & paste from a blog. There is altogether too much trivia in the article. I really don't think anyone needs to know what their favourite food is, for instance. - Ta bu shi da yu 07:41, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
I'm pretty sure we didn't have a favourite food in there! Only that Hugo's hobbies are eating my cooking, and sleeping - which they are. But anyway, it's certainly a work in progress at the moment. Oh, and partner is fine.
I'm finding the copyright stuff a bit confusing - do I need to put a copyright notice on my blog? HighPriestess of the PDRGI 01:53, 20 February 2006 (UTC)

Subst
Hi, when you post a welcome message to a newcomer, could you use {{subst:welcome}}, {{subst:welcome2}}, etc., instead of just {{welcome}}, {{welcome2}}, etc. It means that the text of that particular template will be added to the talk page of the user instead of the user just seeing a sort of mirror image of it. Two advantages are that if the actual template is vandalized, the message you have sent will not be altered in any way, and also less load is placed on the server. For more information, please see WP:SUBST. Cheers. Mkdwtalk 09:19, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

Re: Libby's time
Regarding my edit here, I think it's fair to say that I mucked this one up. I saw the news site and assumed that the time I'd seen the previous night had been corrected, then saw other sources which had the original time. All in all, not one of my finer Wikipedia moments. You do what ya gotta do.

Universally Unique Identifier
Hi, I've removed the number that shall not be mentioned from Universally Unique Identifier in order to clean up after the recent spam storm. The issue of when it is appropriate to publish it on Wikipedia is being discussed actively on the lists and on Talk:HD DVD encryption key controversy. At I understand it, this effort to publish the key was in vain, as it is on the revocation list and is therefore public knowledge (see the talk page for more info).

Wikimedia Australia incorporation meeting
|
Hi there Markhurd! As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation has recently approved Wikimedia Australia as an official chapter. In order to acknowledge this, and to appoint an interim committee, approve our statement of purpose and our rules, and appoint a Public Officer, Wikimedia Australia will be having a meeting at Computerbank in Melbourne. For those of us who are located in other cities, we shall be holding conference calls to the main meeting. The meeting will be held at 2:30PM on Sunday, 20th April 2008, Adelaide time. In order for us to organise this meeting, we need your help! Please drop by at our meta subpage with suggestions as to venues, conference calling services, etc. It will be at 2:30 so we can meet up for lunch beforehand if anyone's open for that! Hoping to see you there! ~ Riana ⁂ 01:50, 20 March 2008 (UTC) |
G'day Wikimedian :-)
Whilst it's quite likely you'll have heard this news on the grapevine, in your email inbox, or even in person - I thought that it was sufficiently exciting to warrant giving each of you a 'new messages' orange bar! This particular orange bar has been brought to you to let you know that Wikimedia Australia is now open for members!
I'm not on the committee or anything, and that's where the credit is due in getting everything to this point, but I think it would be absolutely fantastic for folks who wish to support the australian wiki community, to go ahead and sign up - we're quite likely to be the world's fatest growing chapter at the moment! Join Us :-)
Here's a little more about membership, and the mailing list in particular is well worth signing up to as well, and is a good forum to get answers to any questions answered, or to share any ideas. I've dropped these notes in under my own steam, and you've received one because you're on this list - feel free to ask me any questions, or anything - I can certainly point you in the right direction :-) cheers all, Privatemusings (talk) 04:04, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
Excuse Me
You left a message saying that I vandalised several pages, including the one about "Ryan Higa", but it was not me. I have an IP address that gets changed often, and apparently it got changed to the IP of some vandal.

Welcome to ARS!
Hi, Markhurd, welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles that have been tagged for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated!
Thank youThank you for fixing the article .NET Reflector. I generally don't like completely throwing out material in an article without a very good reason, and I think the changes you made to the article go a long way toward keeping good content around. Your !vote to change ARS name(moved from my Talk page) Did you deliberately obliterate User:TomCat4680's comment for some reason or was it some sort of edit conflict not caught by the system?

Hi Mark, now that there are starting to be some interesting numbers of cases of swine flu in Australia, perhaps we can pick colours to indicate the number of confirmed cases in each state in File:H1N1 Australia Map.svg.

Re: Your edit to Stolen GenerationsAh, I understand now; thanks for your explanation. I'd just assumed it had been left over from a time when there were many Template:Verification needed tags. Hence the first said Template:Verification needed, the second Template:Verification needed, the third Template:Verification needed and so on. Totally silly of me, but that's what happens when I edit too late at night. I hear what you're saying about the templates... maybe something to bring up at the Village Pump? Or maybe ask at the reference desk, since I'm sure this kind of thing must have come up before. For now I've implemented a slightly inelegant solution, which will hopefully clarify the purpose of the tag for other editors. On a totally unrelated note, my thought on the question posed on your userpage ("Should NSD refer to Natasha Stott Despoja?") is yes — because her name is hard to spell and remember. In fact, I think I'll add it now. Glad you found some userboxen you liked :-) Adrian J.

I can confirm there's a problem on Chrome and Firefox (at least) as of the last 6-12 hours (depending upon caching perhaps). However, the script just uses regexs and simple[r 1] HTML DOM APIs supplied by the browser and a quick review of the source of the Special:Contributions doesn't show an obvious change or problem. I will attempt to debug for the next hour or two. Mark Hurd (talk) 13:56, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm using it on the Monobook skin, and what happens is that it now removes all entries from my "Special:Contributions" list, not just those pages where I am the most recent contributor. (As there are no changes listed in the code for over two weeks, I'm presuming that it is a Mediawiki issue that's affecting the script.) Any thoughts on this? --Ckatzchatspy 16:55, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Many articles still have pending changes protection applied, however, and the ability to review pending changes continues to be of use. Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under level 1 pending changes and edits made by non-reviewers to level 2 pending changes protected articles (usually high traffic articles). Pending changes was applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

We noticed though that when you edited Accra Comprehensive Peace Agreement, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Progressive People's Party (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ

We meet at UniSA's City West campus, and our 23 July meeting will have a guest speaker from the National Trust of SA. This coming Sunday, 6 July, we will be holding our first Edit-a-thon. This will be an opportunity for new editors to come and learn either basic or more advanced editing from very experienced wikipedians, so if you know anyone who would like to get some practice, please let them know - and beginners will be very welcome.

I'm really surprised it isn't better known; I think it ought to be implemented into vector as a general feature. Snow talk 14:40, 22 January 2015 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for March 9Hi.

Victor Harbor / Victor HarbourHi Markhurd, there are actually six places in SA with the "Harbor" spelling, not just three. (I found this out some time ago by sending an emailed query to the Geographical Names Board. Because that would be considered "original research", I haven't bothered to make any changes to the Wikipedia articles.) The reason I was given for this spelling is that it's how the names were gazetted. Because parliamentary draughtsmen were lawyers trained in Latin, it seems that there was a mistaken assumption that the word was derived from Latin, rather than from Old English herebeorg, from here troop, army + beorg shelter (Collins English Dictionary). The same spelling also occurred in the name of the Harbors Board, because that body was set up by an Act of Parliament. Given that people keep asking questions about this spelling, and come up with fanciful answers such as "errors made by an early Surveyor General of South Australia" or even "based on an early American map", it's a little surprising that the real reason hasn't come to light before; my own guess is that parliamentary draughtsmen don't like to admit to making mistakes, even those made by their predecessors.

Template talk:Short pages monitorYou may be interested in the discussion at Template talk:Short pages monitor#Need to define and possibly rethink this template. —Anomalocaris (talk) 23:31, 31 January 2016 (UTC) VictoriaAs i brought up, some time ago, why does Category:Victoria (Australia) articles missing geocoordinate data have Australia in it's title when the other six (or so) entries for the other states do not ? and someone agreed, and someone moved it. Why did you move it back ? --Dave Rave (talk) 05:34, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
New Challenge for Oceania and AustraliaHi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest!
