Just as an FYI. You had a double of the first sentence of the article, in the audio. I've clipped it out and uploaded a new version. --ShakataGaNai ^{^_^} 06:15, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Hehe, I've mentioned you at the bottom left. I almost had the ability to be creative but then I saw your page and thought feck it and just copyed and pasted. --James Pain (talk) 15:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Lol, it said you awesomified it & then I saw it! Anyways, it's not my original design, so all good. The beauties of copyleft. :,) See you around. Dotty••|☎ 16:01, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Yup, really good work on the audio. I'll have to do another Thailand story to give you some tongue-twister names. --Brian McNeil / ^talk 09:27, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] news brief pages

Great work with the audio stuff. I was just wondering if you could add <noinclude>[[Category:Brief|<whatever the date is>]]</noinclude> To the bottom of each News Brief: date page you make. That way they aren't mis-identified as developing stories in Wikinews:Newsroom. Cheers. Bawolff ☺☻ 21:59, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

p.s. I made some changes to the date category code, so that the categories recognize news briefs with names of [[News briefs:<date>]] (lowercase b and no space after the colon) as well as [[News Briefs: <date>]] (upercase B and space after colon). Hopefully that will make the categories work more like they should. Cheers. Bawolff ☺☻ 21:59, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Nice one, thank you very much. Edit the code in the news briefs as much as you want, what I do each day is just copy and paste it into the next days page, replace the script text and changing the dates. Again thanks --James Pain (talk) 22:03, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Hows it going?

Hi James, Just wondering whether you think you're going to be able to keep up with the audio?    Tris  

I will, I've just cleared up college and I was planning on restarting any time from tonight and friday. Down side is that I'll be away for a week (next week) so there'll be another gap in audio. --James Pain (talk) 20:07, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

No problem, just wondering! I would help if I had a microphone-maybe one day!    Tris   20:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Audio News

I can help while you are away (I did this before) but I never found out how you can make it so when you post a new audio file the previous file will show in the archive list. How do you do this? Do you do it manually or what? Thanks. 14:20, 14 July 2009 (UTC)Andimahony —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andimahony (talk • contribs)

[edit] Recent articles with dual audio templates

Hi James Pain. Some articles that you have recently edited for audio have both the {{Article-audiobrief}} and {{Audio box 2}} templates. I believe they should have one or the other, not both. Cheers, --SVTCobra 01:34, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Here are some examples: Workers at England wind turbine plant stage occupation and Black spot on Jupiter is impact site, says NASA. Cheers, --SVTCobra 01:37, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
