Request for help

See User_talk:Sumple#Quote_of_the_moment. Yes I know you are probably studying. --Sumple (Talk) 06:02, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Guess this is as good a section as any to respond: request fulfilled. I'll try to keep an eye on this, if you want me to say anything else about it just let me know. That's honestly fucked up. I say if you have to go ten years back to find dirt on somebody, it should tell you something. Luna Santin 07:09, 19 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of "Uk microwave group" page

For some reason, checking a page I created, "Uk microwave group", it was deleted by yourself on 09 June 2006. I was suprised, but maybe there was a valid reason? If so, please could you let me know, before I create it again.

BR, Steve G4knz.

Uk microwave group was deleted for being an article about an unremarkable group (WP:CSD A7). For more guidance, see also Wikipedia:Deletion of vanity articles. enochlau (talk) 10:40, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm planning to re-write that article: User:Sumple/Constitution_of_Australia. Help would be most welcome. My notes would be even more welcome... --Sumple (Talk) 07:29, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Re: DSLR

Hi Enochlau,
Well as general advice stick with Canon. They're the best. The EOS 350D is a very good budget choice, but in recent years the 20D (which is what I have) has dropped considerably and is now a good option. 20D is a sensational camera, really can't criticize it. 350D is said to be very good, but I haven't actually tried it first hand.
The biggest trap with a DSLR is lenses. Do NOT get a cheap wide to tele zoom! Eg 28-300mm. The quality will be rubbish and you will wonder why you are getting worse images than you Point and shoot. Your lense is going to be the limiting factor of your camera. I'm very happy with my first lens (Tamron 28-75 f/2.8). It's sharp, reasonable macro/focus speed and is a good price, especially since you get f/2.8 (do you understand aperture?). A good zoom lens is the Canon 70-200mm f/4 L. I don't have it, but it's a "L" lens which means it complies to a very high technical standard. And it's one of the few affordable L's. Very highly recommended first zoom. It has pretty good macro too. Check out this page for some nice samples of the 70-200mm f/4. Most of my 20D shots are taken with the Tamron. Go to www.fredmiranda.com for more reviews.
Hope that's usefull to you, feel free to ask more questions! --Fir0002 12:41, 5 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the list. You guys put in a lot of work yourselves ;) -- Longhair 16:50, 7 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Spoken Wikipedia

Howdy - Please remember to add new spoken articles (such as Sydney) to Wikipedia:Spoken articles. In addition to keeping this list complete, it allows me to notice new articles to add to the RSS feed. I happened to catch this one because of your change to the project page, so I added it to the list for you. Thanks! -SCEhardT 00:12, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

BOT - Regarding your recent protection of Adrian febre:

You recently protected[1] this page but did not give a protection summary. If this is an actual (not deleted) article, talk, or project page, make sure that it is listed on WP:PP. VoABot will automatically list such protected pages only if there is a summary. Do not remove this notice until a day or so, otherwise it may get reposted. Thanks. VoABot 11:01, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Oops, well, it was a {{deletedpage}} so that should be ok... enochlau (talk) 11:15, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Then the bot would not have listed it anyways :).Voice-of-All 17:35, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Madsen

There were a whole lot of fire trucks and related personnel outside Madsen building today. Nothing was on fire. Looked ominous. Kewpid 12:42, 10 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your user page

Hi, did you know that your user page is still protected? Shalmanese, who seemed to be editing your userpage and being reverted a lot in March, hasn't edited since 8 May. --Tony Sidaway 17:59, 14 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of that and I intend to keep it protected... unless policy has changed recently so I can't keep it indefinitely protected? enochlau (talk) 02:48, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Do you really think it is reasonable to restrict access to your user page? I dunno, something about admins doing that just bothers me. Alphachimp talk 07:39, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It's just that looking over the history of the page, practically every edit that hasn't been done by me has been reverted... by me or an RC patroller. enochlau (talk) 14:07, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Nice Photo

I really like the photo on your userpage. Even though you're half a world away from us here in New York, something about it seemed sort of close to home. I dunno, but good job. Regards, Alphachimp talk 07:39, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks :) enochlau (talk) 14:07, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Glossary of Bagpipe terms

There was a {{hangon}} template on this article. Regardless, I know the editor from collaborations with other articles, and I have no doubt that he will turn this into something useful. I believe that the speedy was improper. According to WP:DRV, a short stub deleted may be recreated with mor content. To save the editor time, I plan on undeleting th epage, with the notice to the editor that it should be filled out with some content within 24 hours. Thank you. -- Avi 03:21, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Car running on water deletion

Sorry to break it to you, but deleting this article was kinda lame. Since it's been published on PESwiki, it should not just be discarted as "nonsense". The PESwiki-site is by my judgement very accurate (scientific magazines frequently discribe some of their topics).

More-over, I believe allot of people would want to read this article, and it could be a real contribution to Wikipedia.

regards,

I stand by my original judgement and if you wish to contest the deletion, go to WP:DRV. enochlau (talk) 09:28, 20 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brad Hussey page

Let me create a Brad Hussey page.

Read WP:BIO. If you just recreate that content, it will be deleted again as per WP:CSD. enochlau (talk) 03:37, 22 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fima Roeytenberg

WHy did you delete this page?

It was deleted as being a non-notable biography. If you wish to recreate it, you may wish to expand on the notability of the subject. enochlau (talk) 02:13, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sydney Wikimania... and what pumpkin is that?

Your pumpkin pic.

Greetings fellow Sydney-sider. (Speaking of which... check Wikipedia:Meetup/Sydney#Sydney_Wikimania_get-together.3F)

Do you happen to know what variety of pumpkin this is? I ask as there's very little info on varieties on the pumpkin article. It looks like a Japanese or Kent... --Singkong2005 talk 11:49, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added a comment to the description, re the most likely variety. Thanks, --Singkong2005 talk 02:09, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

JzG

This user will not quit. He has vandalized my talkpage numerous times over the past three days

Before that he vandalized my talkpage[6]. Then when I reverted another user assumed he was right and reverted to JzG's version, but realized he was wrong and apologized. I was cordially and said it was alright. JzG has left numerous uncivil comments on my talkpage that can be viewed if one goes through the history of the page. He has also repeatedly been warned. I want him blocked immediately. Tchadienne 22:37, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jolin Tsai fansites

Foreign language fansites are doubly useless compared to even normal fansites, but hey, knock yourself out as you make this encyclopedia more like a fanpage than something useful. Desertsky85451 17:19, 16 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Funding agreements in the VSU article.

Hey,

You have put a "citation needed" thing in the VSU article. While it's not online, you can refer to the President's report in Honi Soit this week. A deal was agreed for Sydney University at the Senate meeting on Monday. It guarantees funding to the SRC and SUPRA for the next 12 months. It isn't equal to full funding as these organisations received in pre-VSU days, but is very substantial, apparently the best in the country. Ben Raue (Talk) 00:07, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
