Referendums in Australia

Good change for the referendums site. I've emailed the web maintainer of the palamentary handbook asking for reproduction permission for the statistics on that site, along with another article I found there.

I think we should name the referendum question articles like this:

• Australian Referendum, 1910 A base page linking to:
• Australian Referendum, 1910 (monpolies)
• Australian Referendum, 1910 (commerce)

Obviously when only one question was asked, then only provide one article.

This is good because it's in line with the elections convention, and plus it separates out the debates, information and statistics about the different questions.

NB: I'm available via yahoo messenger: swamp_ig, if you want to chat.

It's just a stylistic thing - we generally don't include "the" at the start of the title of most institutions. As far as I know, it's like this across the board (there's a lot of universities in particular who like to have the "the" at the start of their name, but aren't that way on Wikipedia).

Um... did you really mean to do this? Because, you know, "as of 2005" really implies that it's ongoing, and hence already includes 2006... pfctdayelise 12:56, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

Huh. To be honest, I didn't even know there was a whole big thing behind "as of" links. So I'm not going to push the point. But doesn't it seem weird to you? Because it was true in 2005, and it's still true now. To me changing the year is implying that it began the practice in 2006, thus wiping out the history. I guess I think it should really be since 2005. pfctdayelise 02:17, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:PissBeer-logo.png

Thanks for uploading Image:PissBeer-logo.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

• That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
• That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Orphaned non-free image File:Coopers logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Coopers logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

PLEASE NOTE:

• I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
• I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
• If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
• To opt out of these bot messages, add {{bots|deny=DASHBot}} to your talk page.
• If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:49, 2 July 2010 (UTC)
