Maps to make

Asia League Ice Hockey

File:AIHL Team Locations.png

Hi for the 2012 Australian Ice Hockey League season a new team has joined the league: Perth Thunder based in Perth, Western Australia. The map doesn't currently accomodate Western Australia. I was wondering if you could update it with a new style to include the Perth Team? Thanks, Salavat (talk) 07:17, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi, sorry to bother you again but could you update the location for the Perth Thunder. The now are located in Malaga not Bibra Lake. Sorry also, Mustangs IHC are now known as the Melbourne Mustangs, and the Sydney Bears relocated from Penrith to Baulkham Hills. Thanks, Salavat (talk) 05:32, 14 April 2012 (UTC)

Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre

Would you be able to share any more photos of the above building? I am strictly interested in photos of the timbered exterior structures for an article I am writing for the Timber Framers Guild of North America, Timber Framing Journal, a non-profit organization, on the subject of design for durability (of wood). You may reach me at m@rftimber.com should you be interested to assist me. Thank you. Mack Magee — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.109.227.137 (talk) 16:05, 3 January 2012 (UTC)

Request for help concerning energy...

Hi,

I noticed you listed yourself as a participant of the Energy WikiProject.

There are 2 new outlines in this area that attempt to consolidate Misplaced Pages's coverage of their respective subjects, gathering and organizing the articles about them into one place and including descriptions for convenience. The purposes of these outlines are to make it easier for readers to survey or review a whole subject, and to choose from Misplaced Pages's many articles about it.

The new energy outlines are:

• Outline of solar energy
• Outline of wind energy

Please take a look at them, and....

if you spot missing topics, add them in.

if you can, improve the descriptions.

add missing descriptions.

show parent-offspring relationships (with indents).

fix errors.

For more information about the format and functions of outlines, see Misplaced Pages:Outlines.

Building outlines of existing material (such as Misplaced Pages) is called "reverse outlining". Reverse outlines are useful as a revision tool, for identifying gaps in coverage and for spotting poor structuring.

Revising a work with multiple articles (such as Misplaced Pages) is a little different than revising a paper. But the general principles are the same...

As you develop these outlines, you may notice things about the articles they organize. Like what topics are not adequately covered, better ways to structure and present the material, awkward titles, articles that need splitting, article sections lacking {{Main}} links, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask me on my talk page or at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Outlines.

Thank you. Sincerely, The Transhumanist 00:58, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

P.S.: see also Outline of energy

Map favour.

Can you do me a favour? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 21:11, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

The favour is can you make a map of all the 2015 Pan American Games host cities on the map I will send by e-mail, however you have to e-mail me first before I can send an attachment. And where did I forget to sign? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 21:54, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

I did forget to sign it then did it the next second lol. I sent the e-mail btw. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 22:51, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

Looks good! However I do have suggestions. Minden is the correct spelling not Mindin. Barrie should be actually Oro Medonte sorry. Hamilton should be moved slightly to the left a bit. The dots could be colour coded, but how would that work? There are eight venue clusters and 10 stand alone venues. Sport pictograms could work as well but Toronto has like 70% of the venues making a separate Toronto map necessary. Thanks! Intoronto1125TalkContributions 14:09, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for your good work! When the venue plan is fully finalized and you have time are you open to putting the icons in? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 21:17, 15 July 2012 (UTC)

LOL we need a change already -.- don't you hate it when they can't decide? Apparently Borden has been removed but don't remove it from the map yet until official word. However Ajax will need to be added as it is the official baseball host. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 22:51, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Have you gotten my message!? Intoronto1125TalkContributions 17:25, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

For now Borden will be a venue. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 15:37, 19 August 2012 (UTC)

Edits by User:Kalamkaar

Maybe my wording was not correct, but adding interlanguage links to articles with only one or two lines in Urdu as content, appears frivolous to me. Also, look at the pattern of edits for Kalamkaar and you will notice his strange obsession since Nov. 10, with cities and place names in Canada, the states of ND and NY in the USA and numerous locations in the UK. The article for Thunder Bay is only one among over 350 such additions over the last 2 weeks.

Given that the same editor also appears interested in the terrorist who was hanged 2 days ago for the 2008 Mumbai attacks, I find this extremely unsettling and suspicious that he would be adding interlanguage links to locations within countries currently opposed to terrorists who are based in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Who knows what is in the Urdu articles? -- secret messages to other terrorists for clandestine attacks? I am not buying his "innocent" links.

If you want to give potential terrorists free rein to abuse Misplaced Pages for evil purposes, suit yourself! --Skol fir (talk) 05:01, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

Northwestern who?

That is the damnedest definition of "north" I've ever seen... (Especially since it's only, oh, 250mi south of here. ;p And we're nothing like "northern Saskatchewan", I can promise you. :D ) Thx for clearing it up. Wrong Way Corrigan 01:13, 21 February 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, when you remember Toronto thinks it's the center of the world, it makes sense. :D Less so for the rest of us, tho. Either way, I do appreciate your being so cordial & informative. That's cool. :) TREKphiler 02:51, 21 February 2013 (UTC)
