Your user talk page

Hey I noticed that you blanked this page. Usually, it’s good practice rather to archive the page, rather than to completely blank it. This is so that if in future, another editor wants to refer to a talk post on this page, it’s easier to do so. Please see Help:Archiving a talk page for further info/instructions. I would recommend re-adding the old discussions, then using a bot to archive the page. Cheers, Fork99 (talk) 21:26, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

I’ve actually never done the process myself, but from what I understand, here are the instructions to use a particular bot to archive: User:Lowercase sigmabot III/Archive HowTo. I think the easiest way to set it up is by placing {{subst:Setup auto archiving}} at the top of the page once you have re-added the old posts, and then you just need to wait for the bot to do its thing. Apparently, it runs once a day. Fork99 (talk) 21:48, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

@MetroManMelbourne: I can confirm the process above works, as I just did it for my own talk page. Fork99 (talk) 18:29, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

I do both, you can set up an archive bot to keep the edits you wish to refer to later. Delete the niff naff and trivia as you like. There is nothing intrinsically wrong in blanking your page. WCM_email 08:34, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Proposal for a new Wikiproject

Hi, there is currently a proposal for an Australian Transport Wikiproject. I thought you may be interested due to your edits and interests in transport in Australia. The proposal can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Australian Transport. If you are interested, add yourself to the Support section of the page. Thank you!

Hi MetroManMelbourne! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Melbourne Airport that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.
