Re: Greek Temples

As you know, Wikipedia is a collaborative project. {{Coord missing}} adds the article to a maintenance category, which might attract the attention of other editors who could fill in the coordinates. —Stepheng3 (talk) 03:11, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Don't be sorry. Be proud of what you've accomplished and keep up the good work! I just wish I could've been more helpful. Best regards, —Stepheng3 (talk) 04:39, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Lucan Leo

(Or Luke'n'Leo?)

Just made another small edit based on the English - nothing major. What happened to Galileo? PiCo (talk) 23:40, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Me? Lucky Luke? No way mate, he's all Murray's!
What Romanesque domestic architecture? Didn't they all live in caves or something? PiCo (talk) 04:11, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

A cupcake for you!

I am sure some extra sugar won't hurt during your improvements of the Romanesque architecture... ;-) Alberto Fernandez Fernandez (talk) 14:03, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

St James' Church, Sydney

Hi Amandajm,

Thanks for your comments about St James. All good points. However, I did not add any text in about Evangelicanism and also I cannot see on the article history where you have made any recent change so I am a bit bewildered. What am I missing? One day I would like to focus on getting this article to Featured status so I appreciate your discriminating input. Happy to work with you on it. Whiteghost.ink 08:14, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

The light has dawned - I see what you are referring to. I made the mistake of thinking you were talking about the St James' Church, Sydney article because that is the one I am working on and the one I would like to get to featured article status one day. That is why I could not find the edits you commented on. Yes, thanks for fixing that cross reference. When I made that edit I was even more of a newbie than I am now and I agree it did not take account of the nuances, partly because I was focusing on the St James one. Regards, Whiteghost.ink 02:04, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Terrifically helpful suggestions about how to improve St James' Church, Sydney. Thanks a lot. I will make the simpler suggested changes as soon as possible but my efforts on this are rather "on hold" at the moment while I help with the the Versailles project which is a very big and complex one. Being involved in it is teaching me quite a bit about Wikipedia in general and where/how things should go. The term of the Wikipedian-in-Residence who is leading it will soon expire so there is currently a lot of effort being expended on it. However, as part of my researches for the work on St James, I will be attending a seminar about Philip Arthur Micklem organised by the St James Institute on Saturday, 23 July.

By the way, may I say I really like your "Portrait of the artist as.." I love its combination of strength and whimsy; the playful idea combined with the boldness of form and the way the colours support that. I like the complementary red/green - fun and power; grey - something possibly foreboding or forbidding that seems also to be fleeting. I like the way the subject fills the frame. It's very appealing.

Thanks for the help

The Helpful Award
Much appreciated, you went out of your way and helped me in no small way. I was going bonkers over it. Lucky me that people like you, Johnbod and Yoman are around. Ceoil 23:41, 10 July 2011 (UTC)

Romanesque

I wonder how much one of those French Romanesque houses would cost? Do it up as a home-stay - bet you'd get people staying!

The article is a bit light on references - but you must surely have them, since you wrote the article.PiCo (talk) 05:52, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Love the portrait! Just go as yourself, nobody will mind. PiCo (talk) 06:24, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Oh God what a story! Must have made that little boy's day! PiCo (talk) 06:52, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
