==Extra Platforms==

{{User:Martinp23/Nav}}

The platforms on the Suburban tracks were not removed in 1927 - they were removed in the 1980s some time. The extra platforms remained long after the sextuplication. [[User:JROBBO|JROBBO]] 22:17, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

::Do you know what "original research" is? Original research is like writing an essay on "the performance of trains stopping at Macdonaldtown" - an unsourced fact does not mean original research. I know for a fact that the platform remains were not demolished in 1927 - they were there for many more decades afterwards, and were demolished some time in the 80s. Ask around - I am right. [[User:JROBBO|JROBBO]] 00:33, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

::: Ok then, I will stand corrected. Its just that I had a reference suggesting that they went in the 1920's, thats all. [[User:Quaidy|Quaidy]] 01:05, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

== MartinBotII on [[WP:PR]] ==

Hello Martin, I just noticed that your [[WP:BOT|bot]] added [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Peer review/Cool World|the peer review for Cool World]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Peer_review&diff=101676141&oldid=101673610 twice in a row]. I tried looking for possible explantions of the error, but I couldn't locate any. [[User:AZPR|APR]] _{[[User talk:AndyZ|t]]} 01:13, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

:Uh-oh, look what happened this time, the PR instructions were broken by an [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Peer_review&diff=102983544&oldid=102966086 accidental inclusion of a new PR]. Looks like someone added a regular peer review to [[Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Peer review]], which must have disrupted something. [[User:AZPR|APR]] _{[[User talk:AndyZ|t]]} 22:12, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi Martin, I just created [[Wikipedia:Africa-related regional notice board/Peer review]]. I'm not sure if your bot will automatically pick up the new page through categories or if I need to tell you. Also, I noticed a relevant current PR and transcluded it to the board subpage. Given APR's comment above, I take it that this is very bad? - [[User:BanyanTree|Banyan]][[User talk:BanyanTree|Tree]] 18:41, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

:H Martin, Thanks for your note. I'm a little confused by your note, or maybe I'm the one who is confusing you. My note above was about transcluding [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Amenhotep I]] into [[Wikipedia:Africa-related regional notice board/Peer review]]. I did this before reading APR's post above about how transclusion of [[Wikipedia:Peer review/Ralphie]] into [[Wikipedia:WikiProject College football/Peer review]] may have broken the bot. If that is not the case, then there is no problem. Thanks for your assistance! - [[User:BanyanTree|Banyan]][[User talk:BanyanTree|Tree]] 22:13, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Oops, it looks like there is a problem. Amenhotep I was added a second time; it is currently both 1.89 and 1.10 on the TOC. Is it possible to modify the bot so it doesn't pick up nominations that are transcluded from other "root pages"? - [[User:BanyanTree|Banyan]][[User talk:BanyanTree|Tree]] 00:47, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

==NPW==

Can you add me please? I'd like to try the program out! I've been using VP, but it crashes way too often! [[User:Corpx|Corpx]] 06:44, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

:Adding here because I don't want to make a separate section ;) I've been doing NP patrol..a lot. --[[User:Wooty#Mission statement|'''''W''''']][[User:Wooty|'''''o''''']]<font color="red">[[User:Wooty/b|'''o''']]</font>[[User:Wooty|'''''ty''''']]&nbsp;<small>[[User talk:Wooty|'''Woot?''']]&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Wooty|'''contribs''']]</small> 01:07, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== Favor ==

Will you please be a second advocate in [[Wikipedia:AMA Requests for Assistance/Requests/January 2007/Grandmaster]]? I will do most of the work but I think the more people I get unto this the better. Thanks. --[[User:Sir james paul|James, La gloria è a dio]] 02:35, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== Template which you deleted ==

An editor has asked for a [[Wikipedia:Deletion review#{{{2|Template:SerbiaFairUse}}}|deletion review]] of [[:Template:SerbiaFairUse]]. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. --[[User:Millosh|millosh]] ([[:sr:Разговор са корисником:Милош|talk (sr:)]]) 03:19, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

:I didn't close the discussion or speedily delete either of the templates :) <strong>[[User:Martinp23|Mart]]<font color="red">[[User_talk:Martinp23|inp23]]</font></strong> 14:44, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== NPW glitch ==

I attempted to db-band [[Chris Gilbreath]]. Unfortunately, after clicking "band", the program froze. It then said the page appears to have been deleted and refreshed, and it was still there (in NPW and Firefox). I'll let you know if this happens concurrently, it might just be a one time thing. --[[User:Wooty|'''''Wo''''']]<font color="red">[[User:Wooty/b|'''o''']]</font>[[User:Wooty|'''''ty''''']]&nbsp;<small>[[User talk:Wooty|'''Woot?''']]&nbsp;[[Special:Contributions/Wooty|'''contribs''']]</small> 18:59, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== NPWatcher ==

I added myself to the requested approval list. [[User:Yonatanh|Yonatanh]] 19:23, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== Requesting bot again ==

Hello. If you could run [[User:MartinBotII/WPStability]] again at your convenience, it would be greatly appreciated. It looks like a lot of projects were created over the holiday season that I hadn't noticed until now. [[User:Badbilltucker|Badbilltucker]] 21:18, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

== NPWatcher bug ==

Thanks for providning NPWatcher. I am beginnng to try it out and it seesm promising. Hwover, I just encountered the follwing bug: I selected the page [[NetApp Bangalore News]] and tagged it as NN checking also the 'Leave Firstarticle' check-box. The article was tagged correctly, but the Firstarticle note was not placed on the creators talk page [[User talk:Jhinuk.chowdhury]] (I set it manuallay) but on [[User talk:Jhinuk.chowdhury" minor="]].

== Image request ==

Hi, thanks for tagging [[:Image:MC12 blue.JPG]] after I gained permission. I have another image ([[:Image:Maserati MC12 Corsa.jpg]]) with permission and I have sent the email however I sent it on January 21 and the image hasn't been tagged. I was just hoping that you could tag it. I don't want to sound pushy and if there is a backlog or problem then please disregard this message. It's just it was handled so promptly last time and I'm thinking perhaps my email slipped through a gap or something. Thanks again, [[User:James086|<font face="comic sans ms" color="#006400">James086]]</font><small>[[User talk:James086|<font color="navy">Talk]]</font></small> 09:08, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

:Thanks, I hope it I didn't skip any queues though. The wait is perfectl fine, I was just thinking the message may have been missed. This is a voluntary project after all so no-one can be blamed for a backlog. Also with your internet troubles I'm very grateful that you found the time to tag it. I'll be sure to thank the author. Thanks again. <font face="comic sans ms" color="#454545">[[User:James086|James086]]</font>^{[[User talk:James086|<font color="darkgreen">Talk]]</font>} 23:57, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

== Ref Desk Bot ==

ummm, could you restart the ref desk bot. the science, humanities & misc sections are getting too big. --[[User:Parker007|Parker007]] 00:12, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

== NPW Logo license ==

Hi, can I ask on what license is the logo of NPW released? Thanks and ''Happy Editing by [[User:Snowolf|Snowolf]]^{[[User_talk:Snowolf|<small><b>TALK</b></small>]]} on '' 14:12, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

I've uploaded it [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:NPW_logo.jpg here]. I'm using it to build a NPW userbox. Please set the right license on the image's page, or either delete it. Thanks and ''Happy Editing by [[User:Snowolf|Snowolf]]^{[[User_talk:Snowolf|<small><b>TALK</b></small>]]} on '' 14:33, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Finally created NPW Userbox & category. All info on [[User_talk:Martinp23/NPWatcher|NPW Talk page]]. ''Happy Editing by [[User:Snowolf|Snowolf]]^{[[User_talk:Snowolf|<small>(talk)</small>]]} on '' 15:45, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

== MartinBotII tests for Version 1.0 work ==

Hi Martin, I was wondering if we could continue the testing of MartinBotII for Version 1.0? Eyu100 has suggested getting rid of the linkranking and rewriting MartinBotII to incorporate a manual method of ranking, because of the bug we saw next time. I'm strongly against that, I'd rather fix the bug if we can and use the linkranking - do you think that is possible? What do you think?

I don't want to be a pest if you're busy, but I know a lot of people are holding their breath waiting for us to get this system working! It really looks to be the only way we will be able to produce something siginificantly better than Version 0.5. Please let me know if you have time to work on this and run some more tests - though of course I understand if you're too busy just now. Thanks a lot! [[User:Walkerma|Walkerma]] 17:52, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

:Thanks for your reply, now I know why things were quiet. I wish you well, trying to sort out things with BT. We can certainly try the manual WikiProject ranking scheme first, whatever you think is best. Let us know when you're back, and thanks, [[User:Walkerma|Walkerma]] 18:03, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

== StabilityBot ==

Just a probably unnecessary reminder that it would be greatly appreciated if the bot listing all of the new projects would be run. Thanks again for all your work with this, your other bots, and your numerous other contributions. [[User:Badbilltucker|Badbilltucker]] 22:33, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

:Under the circumstances, you have no reason to be sorry for it. Circumstances beyond your capacity to control are not something you should feel sorry for. I hope everything gets back to normal there for you soon. [[User:Badbilltucker|Badbilltucker]] 17:45, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

== Juan Cole mediation... ==

could you come back and weigh in? [[User:Elizmr|Elizmr]] 22:13, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

== Sethie AMA request ==
