Deep Obsession changes. Just a small headsup, I know very well both the original female members (Zara and Charlie) and am married to one of them, you can rest assured my recent changes are accurate and succinct, and certainly not dubious. Kindest Regards.

Indigenous Australians

Thanks for your attention to the page. I supplied my earliest 'recipe for Death Pudding' as a reference. The other I removed as Henry Reynolds (historian) is reference enough for the current debate. Welcome to wikipedia Fred 11:33, 26 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Go symbols in Unicode, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Article on Jon Stuart Yeates

Notability of John Stuart Yeates

A tag has been placed on John Stuart Yeates requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article, which appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Tyler John (talk) 04:55, 22 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ngatata Love references

Welcome re the references to the Ngatata Love article. I use the refTools gadget (my preferences \ Gadgets), makes it very easy. XLerate (talk) 11:43, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

COI

Thanks for the advice Stuart - I am Sarah Whitburn (sharing this account with my partner), and indeed I was not thinking about the conflict and wasn't (and still am not sure) how I am to declare it as a user. In hindisght I offer my Sarah Whitburn page to be removed, even though it is very accurate. Your link to the current New Zealand cabinet Minister, the Hon. Richard Worth's conflict of interest (although his is arguably far more notable being a public politician rather than a private lawyer), was fascinating - thank you! I agree that there could be a presumptive bias in relation to my page, particuarly since I did not disclose this. I will acquaint myself with wikipedia's protocols better in the future. Have a great rest of the week - all the best. Lambert611 (talk) 00:26, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rubicon Foundation

You recently removed the Rubicon Foundation and their Rubicon Research Repository from the Digital Libraries category. I am just curious as to what criteria it did not meet for inclusion. I just want to clarify the mistake I made by adding that category a while back. Thanks! --Gene Hobbs (talk) 13:47, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind, I see how you guys are breaking them up now. Thanks! --Gene Hobbs (talk) 16:19, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unintended deletion?

Hi, did you mean to remove Kaiwhakahaere's !vote at Talk:Danevirke#Requested_move? I assume you didn't mean to, so I've put it back. -- Avenue (talk) 02:31, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, entirely my mistake. Thanks Stuartyeates (talk) 08:50, 5 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Queen's Birthday Honours

I've finished with your scratchpad for the time being. It doesn't look as if anyone else is interested in using it as a basis for the next collaboration, so I think we should move it to the main article space. I suggest you move it to Birthday Honours 2009, and then format it similarly to Birthday Honours 2008, so the UK can add their section to it later. If you would prefer, I can move it myself.-gadfium 05:54, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

By "format it similarly" I don't mean to change the tables, just to create a similar lede and heading structure.-gadfium 05:56, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Dead Link?

Hi Stuartyeates, I noticed that you have put a dead link notice for external link to IPC website. I am confused why because as far as my knowledge, http://www.ipc.ac.nz is up and running perfectly. Besides, you put the year as 2008. Please explain. Thank you. International Pacific College (talk) 19:55, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added the note because at the time the link wasn't working. It is now working, so I've removed the note. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:03, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New Zealand National Party

Hi Stuartyeates, regarding your comment on my Wikiproject New Zealand proposal, Currently New Zealand Labour Party is a B-Class article, I have nominated it for Good article status as I believe it has been substantially improved since its last nomination. The New Zealand National Party article is currently only start class. Perhaps you would support a more wide-ranging "New Zealand Political Parties" nomination?? kiwiteen123 (talk) 21:54, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Personally I'm not really interest in politics, so I'd probably abstain from supporting or opposing it, but (a) the status is generally less important than the actual content (you might consider request a reassessment); (b) List of political parties in New Zealand should probably be the nomination if you're after political parties more generally; and (c) now is probably a good time to do this, since we're not in the run up to an election (when things start getting heated/controversial).Stuartyeates (talk) 22:04, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

LCA Open Day

Hi Stuart, you don't know me, but Liam suggested I get in touch with you.

I'm planning to staff a table at the LCA Open Day in Wellington on Saturday 23rd January 2010 for Wikimedia Australia. (We will likely have lots of general Wikimedia stuff too.) I am looking for a couple of fellow question-answerers and I was wondering if you would be available and interested in helping out. thanks, pfctdayelise (talk) 06:55, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I can provisionally say yes, but will need to check closer to the date, pfctdayelise. Are you only after my presence for the couple of hours or do you need anything else? I'm familiar with some of the organisers, the venue, the city, etc, etc. My day job is at a local library, but not the library adjacent to the event. Stuartyeates (talk) 09:36, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Well I am attending the conference itself, and I know some of the organising team, so I don't think any of that should be a problem - I just need to remember to bring the gear across the Tasman. The "Open Day" only runs from 11 to 2, so that's basically it. --pfctdayelise (talk) 13:11, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I put the "other stuff - on the NZ wikiproject - where "you" originally asked about this.

Cheers.

will lead you to discover the 3rd?
I classify myself as (according to your science's decrees)
An Analogue Audio Scientist - (in the "applied" 3D surround_sound multi_ch "field")

(& that - is all I need to say - on that)

except to say that a nine (9) ch analogue system - has 300 virtual chs (and I can VISUALLY prove them)

Cheers & have a beautiful day Roxburgh NZ (talk) 20:35, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

web development and database programming

Wow ?

so? how do I make at least a three (3) ch basic, but would prefer a ten (10), or thirteen (13) ch, comprehensive (with interactive LIGHTS as well) "analogue" deplexer-decoder (interactively inter_streaming via simultainious upload-download webpage - as an)

? - audio "re-player" website - ?

I am trying to figure out the logistics of providing a free to use - "website" where anyone can upload their music - both "creative" artists & "replayer" audiences alike - and have the .wav files immediately "playable" on the site - BUT for ONLY that user - and ONLY for that session - (& thus seamlessly complies with the non-breach of copyrights - as simple player rights) - to allow everyone the ability - to either "receive_back" - a quickly analogue remastered STREAMING .wav file - which "plays" this in full 3D surround - on that ONE (1) player's own 2ch player -(as if in 3D)- or I would more easily like to just have the actual player remaining "on_line" - along with the added benefit then - of "firing" a simultainiously decoded "lighting" display board as a VISUAL reference as well - (thus "playing" the player 2ch stereo - in NOT just 3D, but in 4D as well - AS "both" LIGHTS & SOUND ... across say the TEN (10) ch lighting demo board, which I currently use (my 10ch Lighting Demo Educational Video seems to have gone viral & appears in places that are still even surprising me - on the net now)

But- this is the "best" one for you to view this - (full screen)
http://www.youtube.com/QUIX4U (& it's my very 1st uploaded vid)
10ch Visual Audio Educational Video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKTtqizj-bk

Well - where's the picture?

Ok that didn't work ?
but this doesn't matter - as it's the PICTURE - in my 2nd video
U don't know (thus QUIX4U compares Mono_2_Stereo) AND BEYOND
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuriZp6-73U

See - problem solved - my kiwi way (insanely - oops I miss_spelt - & meant instantly)

Thus? As I actually have three (3) full function domain names - but have NONE of them with it's own "dedicated" webpage ... I am still totally in the dark - as to how to "make" even a single .txt page" - (except in free hosted sites) ... and thus STILL wouldn't even know how to "make" my interaction player - ?even if I did have a page?

Me - my science from 1965 - is IN analogue - the old way - via magnetic Tape & runs via the whole electromagnetic spectrum (I'm also a fully NZ Registered Industrial Electrician - non practicing obviously - as am on an "invalids" b/f)

Computors just seem to waste lots of my time - (although I enjoy thrashing my C&C video game CD's)

Oh & remastering "stereo" audio too
( as above - with 120 audio_videos, or just google K_RAY_Z )

Cheers Roxburgh NZ (talk) 21:54, 10 May 2010 (UTC) Oh & P.S... ? IF[reply]

If you do actully get to listen to my 2nd Vid - educational "comparitor" between Mono & WIDE_MODE ..

U don't know (thus QUIX4U compares Mono_2_Stereo) AND BEYOND
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuriZp6-73U

this "link" below takes you to the original 2ch stereo "song"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4I7GCciA3z0&feature=related
Which now ACTUALLY sounds like a dull sort of mono - ?
BUT - it's (still) THE full 2ch stereo as it was .!
BEFORE - you heard (10ch Decagon_Ophonic) "analogue_surround" - in WIDEMODE - across 2ch

& If you think THAT EFFECT is just too dArN strange - (on how one's perceptions can be instantly altered)

consider the reactions of people who 1st saw COLOUR TV's after years of B&W
The B&W's rapidily paled into insignificannce - even if B&W's had been LAUDED as the best since silent movies - (that were their predecessors before them)

One glance at a COLOUR TV ... changed the viewers perceptions of TV's in general - forever Cheers. Roxburgh NZ (talk) 22:37, 10 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh & (about the rule of) Common Sense

I've spotted mentions of this - all the way through my flouderings - in THESE my 1st three days editing

BUT - I don't have yours - I have MINE (& it's completely different to everyone else's as well)

As I keep getting reminded - it the simplest of ways - SCHOLARS - everywhere I turn - appear in places that I am looking for other things .... AND BANG - there's another mention - of my "Common Sense" methods .. & thus - of being used to do such things as retrain other peoples brains - into keenly sharp "Elephant's Memories" - (just like mine)

I discovered this "1" - in what would appear to be a completely wrong place - to have one of MY video "info" sheet - when I at 1st saw this "here"

http://www.errachidia.info/clip/2-Speedbrain.html

But see - it makes perfect "Common Sense" to me - sdrawkcaB daeR oT - whever I'm gnidaer a koob as I just zzihw back & htrof across the egap in htob directions - enil for line? Oops - I 4 got- & you possibly haven't read the transcrpit of "my" vid's info - even though it's apparentl MY copyright (according to you wikipedias definitions of Common Sense) - but hey - if someone can bennefit morf ti - who ma I 2 compailn - suht I am glad it's no such a webste (such as thisone) - yes MY WORDS - are on this scholarly brain teaser website - ?

also mine - BUT the whole "portion" of my work - simply cut & pasetd VERBATUM ...?
Do I care - !!!on lleh hO

Because - today - here - on that website - which is ONE that I'd never seen or knew existed -?

TODAY - I got to re-laugh - at myself again - and am NOW going ot have another brilliant day.
