message: Why q.v. because I was trained that way :)
In wikipedia people, and bots, seem to link to lots of things that are of a highly general nature and not important context. I figured using q.v would allow me to flag the ones that contained important information about the topic, the ones you should definitely click on if you are interested. 
If there is a better wiki style for accomplishing accomplishing this I will use it. Though haven't seen anything other than advise to not link everything because it makes the articles hard to read and the important links hard to find.  
Anything I copy will be quoted, (and I am learn doing citations according to wiki style). 
This article, for example, comes from studying the entries in the Australian Encyclopedia under a variety of article, the website and other stuff I have read. Then me figuring it out and writing about it. 
Figured I use the be bold recommendation and "someone will clean up afteryou" bit.

message: :Image:AUD2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Nobody searching for "John MacArthur" on Google is looking for the "wool pioneer", so a link has been added on top. Everybody would be looking for the controversial pastor 182.255.99.214 (talk) 14:45, 27 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I guess I am "nobody" then as that's the best-known John Macarthur in my universe. Certainly I am not "everybody" as I never heard of the pastor. This is why we have disambiguation pages and has been linked accordingly. Kerry (talk) 22:53, 28 February 2015 (UTC)
