Williamstown, Victoria

Hi Craig and once again welcome. Thank you for taking the time to expand the article on Williamstown. Just so you are aware, Wikipedia has a policy on verifiability. All content added to articles is required to be supported by reliable sources. Looking at the quality of the content you have added, I am sure you have a reliable source; it just needs to be shown in the article. Please see the style guide for the various ways Wikipedia uses to attribute information to a source.

Once again, great work and let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Mattinbgn\^talk 09:08, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Hello, Mattinbgn. I'm aware of Wikipedia polcy on verifiability. The links to various reliable sources I'll add once I've filled in the content. Some content is verifiable by me, a resident of the place. For example, I can get around my town and see the markers on the various buildings, etc. I can take photographs if my worth as a "reliable source" needs to be tested. Best, Craig Rowley (talk) 10:15, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, I should not have assumed that you did not know. Once again if you have any questions about sources or anything else to do with Wikipedia, leave a message on my talk page. -- Mattinbgn\^talk 10:36, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

That's okay, Mattinbgn. I think I will need a hand with adding references. Craig Rowley (talk) 12:07, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

It's good to be able to collaborate on an entry. Thanks for working with me, Mattinbgn. Craig Rowley (talk) 12:09, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

July WMAU Melbourne Meetup

Hi, At last month's June meetup we discussed the idea of setting up a Training Course at a University of the Third Age (U3A) to be held in 2013 and named Becoming a Wikipedia editor. In order to get this course up and running we are calling for volunteers to help develop the idea, and either tutor part of the course, or provide one on one help to students in the class. All local Wikipedians are welcome to discuss this at our 11am meetup to be held this Sunday on 22 July. Please add your name to the attending list at Wikipedia:Meetup/Melbourne 23. Food and beverages are provided. Cuddy Wifter (talk) 03:52, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
