Talk:Canberra

From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change

Canberra is a featured article on the English language Wikipedia. You can help by adding information from that page, after simplifying it (for English articles) or translating it (for articles in other languages).

Tane,

First of all, great article! I learned a lot about Canberra just from that short piece. Also, welcome to Wikipedia, if you're new here.

I made a few modifications, mostly for simplicity. I hope you don't mind that I moved your signature to my comment so it will show up in the history. Wikipedia culture generally discourages signing articles directly, just because they're so subject to change in the future that no one really "owns" the article. However, we do want you to be recognized for your work!! The best way to do this is to create a login so that your name will show up in the history.

In trying to "simplify" the article I may have made changes that make it less Australian (since I'm from the United States); of course feel free to put back in anything that's standard simple Australian English, because I don't want to impose my cultural bias.

Thanks again for a great article, and happy Wikipediaing! Cheers, PhilipR 13:14, 17 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• The middle paragraph is not very clear in terms of what it is actually referring to, so I've changed it.
