File:Mullaloo Beach.jpg

Can you identify thus beach?

An IP is claiming that File:Mullaloo Beach.jpg isn't actually the right location. The image is used here and on Wikidata. If incorrect it will need to be removed from usage and renamed on Commons. Commander Keane (talk) 05:40, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Looks like a shot from near the North Mullaloo Beach look out. Hack (talk) 07:29, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Clearly from there. The shape of the beach, the carpark in the distance, even the number of windows on the white flat roof house on the left match google maps exactly. The-Pope (talk) 16:03, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Recent change

A change in the main list of caves of sunny west oz has been moved, without discussion, fellow editors understanding of the change would be appreciated. List_of_karst_features_in_Western_Australia JarrahTree 01:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

I made this change based on the difference in scope between the lede and the list's name. Should have left a move summary, sorry.

Moves like that should have had a notification here, simply out of courtesy. Also the terminology and explanation in the lead paragraph is not something that is slipped between. A list of caves is in reality different from a list of the karst features, and should be kept separate. JarrahTree 05:14, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

Have you read the article in question? Genuinely asking, because I was simply retitling what was already present. I did not create a new list, the current one was mistitled and didn't match what the title said it was. If you have an issue with the content you are welcome to change it to only have caves in it, then revert the move.

I have been very aware of the list since it was first created:

13:24, 3 April 2007 Hesperian talk contribs  21,661 bytes +21,661  ←Created page with 'This is a list of caves in Western Australia'. It includes all named caves that occur in the Australian Speleological Federation Karst Index Database (KID)...

I would consider that the edits since 2007 and clarification of the karst features over time have made it a problematic list, in that it was created with claimed named caves, and it has evolved into identification of karst features... JarrahTree 05:41, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

I see! I'll take a look at it in the morning, it is quite late my time.

• It appears to me that this Karst(what ever that is) list is something that should be on Wikidata, return this to a list of named caves. Gnangarra 12:28, 4 November 2024 (UTC)

User:JarrahTree

It is with a sad heart that I inform the Western Australian contributors of the sudden passing of JarrahTree. Please email me if wish to attend the funeral, otherwise we can dedicate Dec 15 meetup to reflecting on what JarrahTree has done over the last 19 years, 6 months, 1 week and 1 day.
