Welcome!

Hey Albinomonkey - if no one has done so already, let me welcome you to Wikipedia. You may be interested in Wikipedia:How to edit a page and Wikipedia:Manual of Style. You can sign your username and timestamp on talk pages and whatnot with four tildes: ~~~~.

Thanks a lot for finishing my 2004 Monaco Grand Prix summary, which I had entirely forgotten about. You may have noticed that it's now almost the only F1 race with a full summary, but they may all have one eventually. I'm an F1 geek myself - see my userpage, User:Rdsmith4.

Glad to have you, and be bold!

A-League article

Thanks for the message you left at my Talk page...I've looked at your A-League article, and I reckon it's not too shabby. I called the page the "Hyundai A-League", on the premise that if the sponsorship or the league name changes, you could do a re-direct to a new page. Anyway...I reckon the following changes could be made (you could do them, or I will on the weekend):

  • The "owners" are the chairmen of the clubs...
  • Mention of sponsorship and broadcast rights
  • Stadiums have been confirmed...the team data could be added a table

Apart from that it's fine. If you make the changes, or someone else does, I'll turn my page into a re-direct page, pointing to yours. If you think we're on the right path, then let me know. Cheers, BigDan

Hiya there.. just dropping you a line to say that I think your A-League article is more than good enough to move into the main article space! Oh, and to say that I for one can't wait for the League to kick off! —Stormie 01:30, Nov 7, 2004 (UTC)

Squash and I have both made infoboxes as well, mine based on his. They are not yet in template form (I thought it better to wait for design suggestions before going into that process), but you could have a look at them, tell us what you think. I have tried to keep the information on mine as concise as possible (i.e. I have not included strike rates or economy rate). Squash's version My version. My main criticism of yours (and it is minor - yours looks good and the data is arranged logically) is the amount of the window it takes up. Thanks Smoddy | Talk 11:23, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Yes I had seen Infobox Cricketer - it was my good self who created it. Thanks for the tip, though, and the compliment! Yours was an excellent place to start, so much gratitude there. Happy Christmas! Smoddy | Talk 22:53, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)

i did not upload the warne picture. i just noticed that it had problems. Xtra 02:23, 10 Jan 2005 (UTC)

All this vandalism is giving me a headache. Sorry if my edit seemed like I was saying yours was vandalism - but you accidently reverted to my version, which i didn't realise was a revert to a different vandalised version. I hope it all straightens out now... AlbinoMonkey (Talk) 06:06, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Not at all, sorry about reverting you and keep up the good work! --fvw* 06:07, 2005 Jan 30 (UTC)

Tiago Monteiro

Great work on the Tiago Monteiro - you've very quickly added a great deal of info about him. Nicely done. violet/riga (t) 18:35, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Return of the Untagged Image project

You were kind enough to contribute to the Wikipedia:Untagged images project; I beg to draw your attention to part 2 of the project - there are about 12,000 more images in need of tagging. Any assistance you could provide would be most welcome. thanks --Tagishsimon (talk)

A1 Wikipedia Project

Just wondering if you wanted to co-create a Wikipedia Project for A1 GP, last couple days the pair of us have seemed to grow the A1 Grand Prix page. If you'd like to co-create a porject for it, get back to me...talk to you soon, --Gazzareth 03:01, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Yeh, I'd definitely be interested. I was thinking of doing this but waiting till I had a bit of time. Sounds, good - I'll help you get it started. AlbinoMonkey (Talk) 03:24, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Ok kool, might sound a bit dumb here, but i am only new to Wikipedia, how do you start a Wikipedia Project, any processes you have to go through? --Gazzareth --Talk
Hmmm - I started one a while ago and there was a very helpful page which lists the steps to make one... But I can't find it now, which is a bit frustrating! I'm a member of Wikipedia: WikiProject Formula One, which I think is well set out. But from what I remember, you create a page in the Wikipedia namespace (in our case, create the page Wikipedia: WikiProject A1 Grand Prix), then on the page, you basically start with a brief description of the project and what the goals are (eg to keep up to date, consistent info on A1 Grand Prix series)... Then put a place for members to sign up, a heading for Infoboxes and Templates (which we obviously do not have yet), and make a short "to-Do" list. You'll want to add it to Category: WikiProjects, and the list at Wikipedia: WikiProject. Have a look at Wikipedia: WikiProject best practices, which is the best help page I could find. Then probably just leave messages on peoples talk pages - probably best to start with those who have already contributed to the A1 Grand Prix page, and it will probably (hopefully) grow from there. I'll help out once you've decided when you want to start. Hope that helps.. AlbinoMonkey (Talk) 13:19, 30 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Re: Moving Sauber

Hi Albinomonkey, I moved Sauber to Sauber Petronas because I figured that it was proper for the article to be on the one with the full name (or at least the most popular name) whereas Sauber could also refer to Peter Sauber. I'd rather use the most common name that people know, but if redirection poses to be a hassle, I would not object to having it reverted back to Sauber for the sake of convenience. Thanks and regards. --Andylkl (talk) 13:01, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
