LGBT

Hi, Bjenks, I rolled back your good faith changes at LGBT concerning italicization and bolding. Consistent styling plays no role here. Please see MOS:BOLDSYN, MOS:WAW, and Use–mention distinction. If you need more background, we can discuss here, or at the article Talk page. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 04:06, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

You are welcome, Mathglot. Qua copyeditor I blundered into this territory, then persisted at consistency to intolerable lengths. I also discovered conflicts of US and BR English but decided to leave them alone. So, thanks! Bjenks (talk) 03:23, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
Might I also, in retrospect, ask you to review MOS:NOBOLD. Bjenks (talk) 03:36, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
I reviewed MOS:NOBOLD, and it is not relevant here. If you believe it is, feel free to discuss. Mathglot (talk) 05:59, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

Season's Greetings

Jill Neville

Thanks for referencing this important pre-1951 Sydney Push associate in that article. Arguably, though, you have appended her to a list of non-contemporaries in which she clearly does not belong. There is of course a problem in having such a list in the lead section, which invites the addition of names without opportunity to duly sort them into appropriate contexts. For that reason, I am drafting and working on some more comprehensive subsections to better contain those names. For instance, the pre-1950s treatment would also include Dulcie Deamer and her associates; and the Tudor/Lincoln days could be expanded on, etc, etc. I would welcome any further relevant information and names you may have. Regards Bjenks (talk) 07:54, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi there. Afraid I am only 38 so no insider knowledge. It think my parents may have some insider take, pretty sure they saw Les a few years ago. I just added the new name after running in to her in reading with a normal spirit of contribution. No idea what's going on elsewhere in the article. I was a bit amazed not to see the people list alphabetically ordered, so I sorted that out first. Best of luck with further improvements. PS. Just saw your Woy Woy Station pic, funnily enough I was there this week! prat (talk) 19:01, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Notice

The article The Long Journey Home (2009 film) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No reviews found to help it pass WP:NFILM. Tagged for notability since July 2014.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Donaldd23 (talk) 00:55, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

I disagree with this frivolous action against an undoubtedly notable documentary. You have made little or no prior attempt to find reviews, one of which I have now referenced in the article. I immediately came across several others, all of which commended the film in terms of its important human-rights content and public interest. I am therefore removing the template but thank you for drawing attention to the need for further expansion of my stub. Bjenks (talk) 15:16, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

as far as I can tell

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwinana_Petrochemical_Plant there is no text that links to the actual wa inc royal commission, unless I am reading it wrong JarrahTree 13:02, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

Hmm, seems you're right. My original stub included the words "The finding of a 1992 royal commission was that "the cost of PICL to the Government was increased enormously by the Government's own actions in order to achieve a second rescue of Rothwells" and that "Effective accountability was a casualty of the Government's entrepreneurial zeal,"(cited)—which have since been wikified out of existence, together with the link to WA Inc. I will have to study who did this and why. Cheers, Bjenks (talk) 16:02, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

eternal vigilance required methinks, sigh. JarrahTree 09:53, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
