Dee Why

Hey there, just regarding your recent edits to Dee Why, I was wondering if the part you added about the origin of the name (dyspropositos) had a source for that? It's just that it seems like many people have just come up with a random idea for why it's called Dee Why, so if all the suggestions were included it'd need it's own seperate article. If there isn't a clear source it probably should be removed, however. Thanks. Terovian 02:37, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

G'Day Terovian My source was the book I listed in the references section.

The Book of Sydney Suburbs, Compiled by Frances Pollen, Angus & Robertson Publishers, 1990, Published in Australia ISBN 0-207-14495-8

I've used it as a guide for writing the history sections of Sydney suburbs. The information in the book is extensive but I usually only write something about the origins of suburb names. J Bar 04:12, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Warringah.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Warringah.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Warringah.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Warringah.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 20:42, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greens Parliamentary Representation Graph

Hi Terovian,

I wonder whether you could correct your map on Greens MP's for Fed parliament, which should be 10 from mid-year, rather than 9 MP's (ie. five current senators, one MHR and four incoming senators). BTW, nice graph and thanks for putting it up. --Mrodowicz (talk) 18:21, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Mosman Council Logo Page

Dear Terovian,

The png image of the crest you have posted is not an approved crest and I ask that you remove it from wikipedia, it should not be propogated online as Mosman Council removed this as an offical mark in 2008, coinciding with the release of the Mosman Council Logotype v100 which appears on their website. If you would like more information on Mosman Council's branding please contact me. I'd also ask that you don't post incorrect information regarding Mosman Council's branding and corporate identity without Mosman Council's express written permission first. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Allicit (talk • contribs) 23:50, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

Hi, 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! Cheers.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:12, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
