(this automated message was delivered using replace.py to you because your userpage (user:Balcora) says you are located in 'Queensland' without specifying which region of Queensland you are located in.

IEEE technical societies

If you are a member of one or more of the IEEE technical societies, you may wish to identify yourself as such on Wikipedia. I’ve created Wikipedian categories for each of the 38 IEEE technical societies. The new Template:User IEEE member creates a userbox identifying the society and your membership grade and includes your user page in the relevant Wikipedian category. If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a note. Yours aye,  Buaidh  18:06, 11 December 2013 (UTC) — IEEE Life Member
