Swans Sugar, etc
editI very much doubt I have done it perfectly, but I have unravelled the not-two-but-three versions of The Swan and the proposed merge (or not) to Henry Sugar. In doing this I undid a little of your work, for which I apologise. Frankly neither of the longer source articles is any good as an article without massive cleanup, and the third was differently poor.
Since you left the two that you found "intact" it may be that you do not know how to change a page into a redirect page? Doing that would have been preferable. It took me quite some detective work to find the articles that needed consolidating. Anyway, that is done now, and we have one substantive, yet poor, article to consider being either stand alone or being merged.
Hope you aren't upset that I was bold and unravelled this set of articles. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 09:29, 20 March 2010 (UTC)
Earthquakes in 2011 edit
editHey, I'm not sure if this'll work but anyway... i'd like to thank you for standardising the sentences in the Earthquakes in 2011 page! I'd been meaning to do it for a while now but have never gotten around to it, so yeah just thought I'd thank you! LabradorGroup (talk) 12:50, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
- No problem. Glad to have helped out! I also removed a lot of duplicate wikilinks in the same month. Let me know if you need any help with this. Reade (talk) 07:18, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
Getting Wikimedians to the Olympic Games
editHi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. --LauraHale (talk) 04:23, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
