What did I do wrong to the Category entry here? ScottDavis 11:32, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

You used {{...}} (which is for templates) instead of [[...]]. It appears now that anything can be a template, not just stuff in the "Template:" namespace, so {{Category:Lakes of Australia|Victoria}} actually inserted the contents of Category:Lakes of Australia into the article. Weird. Geoff/Gsl 11:39, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Thanks. How do you discover these things so quickly? You fixed the page only 8 minutes after I created it! -- ScottDavis 12:21, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)
Pure chance. Such is the way of Wikipedia... Geoff/Gsl 22:07, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Contradiction

[edit]

naturally occurring vs. was constructed. — 2dk (talk) 23:27, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@2dk: I haven't checked article history to see if this was previously ambiguous and been fixed. What the article now says in not contradictory: The lake is (was) naturally occurring, but an embankment and regulators were constructed in the 1920s to increase its capacity so both statements are true. --Scott Davis Talk 04:00, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
