Hello, Liam Skoda, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your contributions; I hope you like it here and decide to stay. We're glad to have you in our community! Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not. If you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to see the help pages or add a question to the village pump. The Community Portal can also be very useful.

Happy editing! Swift 17:26, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] picture crossbow

could you make this picture with a better background? You could lay it on some well cut grass (a leave or two next to it can make this arrangement a beautiful composition) for a picture (if it is suitable for hunting) or with a big target (or several small ones, different ones, etc.) as background (if it is only for sport). Some technical data about its abilities would be nice. (recurve all-metal crossbow with telescopic sight, effective range 100 metres, maximum range 300 metres, etc.) Some pictures from different angles and while loading it (foot and arms visible) could be useful.

Good idea. I'll try getting a picture of it loaded as well. raptor 10:24, 13 August 2006 (UTC)
What do you think of this version? raptor 04:20, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
Crossbow on log
Crossbow on log
Yes, this works out much better. If you have your pictures, could you upload them on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page so they are available to all language wikis. And write a bit of text about its technical feats directly. Wandalstouring 10:17, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] bunbury

irregular,mainly the old railway station and roundhouse as I have some photos from about 20 years ago + which i will eventually upload :) SatuSuro 02:42, 16 August 2006 (UTC) btw thanks for the offer anyway!

[edit] Laws on crossbows

You stated that pistol crossbows are strictly controlled in many areas. That is a bit US-centered because in most parts of the world they are legally a toy for children.

I would appreciate it if we could present an overview about laws on crossbows worldwide (the countries we know, more people can add). But it needs some kind of layout. Wandalstouring 10:24, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 12/0 ?

Since you participated in the discussion at talk:division by zero about the chart being sold by an (allegedly) educational publisher that says that 1/0 = 0, 2/0 = 0, etc., perhaps it will interest you to know that at this web site where the chart is sold, the publisher now solicits opinions of the product. You can go there and tell them what you think. Michael Hardy 20:57, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

I sure did, thanks. raptor 02:03, 10 November 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Wrath

You left a message on my talk page about creating an article on Wrath. I don't remember nominating such an article for deletion. I may have, but I don't remember doing so. As long as it's a legitimate article, I don't see any problem with creating it. To be honest, I probably won't even find it. Just make sure it differs significantly from anger in order to warrant a separate article. — Frecklefoot | Talk 12:21, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Portal: Weapons of mass destruction

It seems that you created this portal a while back, but that it has had little done to it since then. Therefore, if you don't mind, I'd like to adopt the portal and attempt to increase its size and mantain the portal with the ultimate intention of bringing up to a decent level, if not featured status. Cromdog (talk) 17:48, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

I certainly don't mind, I'd be grateful if you could work on it. cyclosarin (talk) 04:47, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
