[edit] Welcome response

No, I'd be fine with you adding that to the news page. I'm actually not a JET yet - I just got the news that I have an interview, but I'm not a teacher yet. I did, however, live outside of Osaka for a year last year as an international student so if I make more contributions it'll be about general things that I experienced at that time.

I have a general knowledge of wiki, but haven't done much, other than some minor edits on wikipedia. I will ask you if anything comes up.

Thank you so much! I hope I can really contribute to the site! :)

Ah, thanks for the tip - Like I said I'm not totally with it as far as wikis are concerned.
As for that, yeah, I'd be more than happy to write about both the application/interview process and the place I stayed at in Osaka-fu (mostly Hirakata-shi). I might also begin filling in some of the general words that are linked but have no pages (like I did with inaka). Thanks again!

[edit] Google maps

Hi Bobo, it looks like the issue with firefox and google maps is a caching thing. When I visted http://jet.wikia.com/index.php?title=Gaucho&action=purge the map showed up. I'll talk to the guy who wrote the extension to see if he can make it show up more easily. I'll also talk to him about the problems with "selector", I think I may have got the name wrong when I wrote the help page and need to talk to him about what it should be. Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for letting me know of the problem! -- Sannse 18:37, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] From Tam

Hey Andy, yeah times they are a changin' and I am now doing productive things with my oodles of free time at school. I will have a wee play around on the practice page as suggested. Cheers mate!!

[edit] updateRedirectOn problem

Hi Bobo! I fixed it :) --Emil 13:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Osaka article / JET

Hey, no worries. I actually started it and realized I didn't know nearly enough pertinent information. I've been working on a thesis since January and that has kept me busy but I should finish it soon and I'll try and clean up that article and start a Hirakata one in a week or so.

I actually just heard back from JET and I will be going next year. I wonder where they will place me...

Kikuchiyo 05:03, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Hey, congratulations! I know how hard it is to wait around to find out. That's the name of the game though on JET... waiting. Now you have to wait for your placement info too. Any idea when you will get that? Bobo12345 05:11, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Organization

Oh wow, I didn't realize it told you what everyone did! Yeah, I figured it was a bit messy and I thought it'd be really difficult for preds to find anyone. Hopefully everyone who adds content will keep up with it! Thanks for dropping me a line! Kurara 10 May 2007

Yeah, if you click on the "history" tab above any page, then you can go back and see what changes that people made in detail - even back to when the page was created. You can also see changes made anywhere on the site in the last few days by clicking "Recent changes" in the toolbar on the left - check it out! Bobo12345 06:19, 11 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiJET on the Japan Project

Hi. I've started an "encyclopedia of Japan-related websites", the Nipponster Japan Project, and I started a page for WikiJET. I also plan on organising people (as the project grows) who want to contribute to improving Japan-related sites and wikis, like WikiJET.

[edit] Sado Island

Hello - thanks for sorting the page out a bit - I wasn't happy with the lay out and was going to read the tutorial thing and then go back and it change it. Great site by the way, we've found one Sado bound person already - the lucky thing! Caroline —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Archieca (talkcontribs) 10:16, 1 June 2007 (UTC).


[edit] New Home Page Design

Bobo - hello and thanks very much for your suggestion on the new home page. I think your comment about making the About Us link more promiment makes a lot of sense. In fact, I think we may add a short about us section directly to the home page, with a link to learn more if a user would like to do so. Thanks very much for taking the time to review the new site and offer us your feedback! Please feel free to send us any and all suggestions in the future! Alexmoskowitz 23:22, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] google maps

Hi, just to let you know that the latest version of Google maps is on Wiki Jet now -- Sannse 16:48, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Great stuff! Thanks very much! Bobo12345 03:59, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Contacting another user

Hi

I just set up a log in and I'm having trouble contacting someone using their link on the 'Outgoing JETs' page. I keep getting the "you must be logged in" message. My user name is Gavin. I'm trying to contact Katala.

[edit] Moved page

I think I have to apologise. I was trying to build a template page for contributors to the Journal of Peruvian Studies (academia wiki)to be able to insert embedded videos directly* (by using your page as a model). I really should not have used "move" and realised that almost as soon as I had done it. I thought I had reversed the move subsequently. I hope no permanent damage has been done.

  • I achieved it on the "Arequipa" page. Thanks for your message and its good to know of your work.

[edit] Shiny new forum

Hi Bobo!

I've just created your new forum at http://jet.wikia.com/forum/

It's currently empty. Please think up a structure for it and I'll implement it to finish the setup. :) You can leave that on my talk page.

--TOR@Wikia 13:36, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

Done. Have fun using your new forum.
And about the calendar extension -- this has been disabled due to serious security issues. It will be back once we deal with those.
Best regards, TOR@Wikia 13:27, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
