links

Hi, nice to have another stamp-interested person involved! In general, we don't want to have large numbers of "see also" links to peripherally-related topics, or links to commercial sites that do not add significant amounts of information beyond what WP offers. So the Stanley Gibbons webpage is appropriate for the Stanley Gibbons article, but it doesn't seem to have much info about stamps in general (and if it does, you would link to those info pages directly anyway).

Thank you for all the best in Misplaced Pages.I thank very much for the Misplaced Pages's event and I am thankful that Misplaced Pages have been becoming popular alot.

Pretty much what I was going to say, too. Adding the addresses and phone-numbers of individual shops is definitely seen as a bad thing, since it's advertising (which is something you wouldn't expect an encyclopedia to do). So additions like you made to Dunedin - though I'm sure Don White would be quite pleased - aren't recommended! Grutness...wha? 07:49, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Re Peter Snell

Hi. Your edit to Peter Snell didn't make a lot of sense, so that's why I reverted it. Cheers. Moriori 08:54, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

List of countries that issued stamps still

hi -- can you explain the title of this article to me? I would guess that it means "countries which still issue stamps", but that implies that some countries used to issue stamps but no longer do. Is that the case? Are there any countries that have stopped issuing stamps? for that matter, are there any countries that don't issue stamps? perhaps I am missing something, since the article doesn't list most countries, including the USA, and we still definitely have stamps! thanks. bikeable (talk) 19:41, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

This issue does need addressing. Would you mind clarifying what you intend? If you want, I could fix the article for you. Miguel Cervantes 04:01, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
