Featured picture candidates

Hi Oska,

Can I ask whether the updates to HenryMoore02 have satisfied your objections? -- Solipsist 00:33, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for the reminder. Well satisfied now. Have changed my vote. The new cropping works really well and I no longer see any jagged lines. Wow, that's a gorgeous sculpture. Oska 02:20, Oct 1, 2004 (UTC)

Central Cross-island highway, Chi-Chi earthquake

Hi Oska,

Thanks for your comments! I chose Chi-Chi instead of 921 because the former is the name used by the Central Weather Bureau, the government agency in charge of earthquake reports.

I'm glad that you enjoy your stay in Taiwan even though you met the terrible earthquake. I was originally from Taipei, but now I'm living near Chicago in the US.

Yarralumla

Hi Oska. Thanks for the proof reading on Yarralumla, Australian Capital Territory (I really should try a bit harder to get things right the first time). I too grew up in Yarralumla living on Mueller St from around 1980 until 2002. I used to spend lot's of time exploring the brickworks and the surounding forest areas. Wikipedia seems way to flakey with these edit conflict things deleting half of articles, good thing they are easily reverted. Martyman 01:19, 27 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Jiuzhaigou Valley

Thanks Oska for your comment about the Jiuzhaigou Valley article. I you have not been there yet, give it a try one day, it's worth it (just be prepared for a grueling trip). Lawrence Lavigne 10:50, Dec 4, 2004 (UTC)
