Orphaned non-free media (Image:Bangkok 2010 Bid Logo.gif)
Thanks for uploading Image:Bangkok 2010 Bid Logo.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 06:03, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Changi Airport
Huaiwei, there is this guy HkCaGu who insist that we shouldnt put Tianjin as one of Xiamen Airline's destination from Singapore just because it passes by Xiamen(MF's HUB) however, this is a direct flight from singapore to tianjin via xiamen. what are your views?Sghan (talk) 09:03, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
- As long as we are backed up by referencing, it will be in. Was there any changes in routing without our knowledge?--Huaiwei (talk) 06:51, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
I read in the papers(Lian He Zao Bao)(see what I edited in the changi airport page before that HkCagu reverted it back) that Xiamen airlines will be inaugurating a new route to Tianjin,China via Xiamen.Sghan (talk) 12:33, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article List of world's busiest ports by shipping tonnage, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. BJBot (talk) 07:29, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Your Suspicions
I think the comment was directed at you. It only just happenned that I edited the article after you. You may have noticed I have started an RfC which is a waste of time. But for the sake of bureaucracy we'll leave it for two weeks. After that I'll move on to the next stage. I suspect there will be deadlock and we'll be left with what we have now unless there is actual arbitration. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RomanceOfTravel (talk • contribs) 23:04, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Masjid Hajjah Fatimah

An editor has nominated Masjid Hajjah Fatimah, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Masjid Hajjah Fatimah and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 15:29, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Changes to list of tallest buildings in Singapore
Hi Huaiwei. I have noted some changes made by you to the list of tallest buildings in Singapore. This includes the adding of a picture column, and the shifting of some images. I would agree that is indeed a noble effort. And if you look at featured lists on tallest buildings, such as San Francisco and Dubai, you would notice that the pictures are not part of the table, but individually standing on the right.
I would suggest that the 'Picture' column be scraped off. Instead, we could use the conventional way to placing pictures as thumbs on the right. Thank you. Angcr (talk) 09:14, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with Angcr that the page should look like other such pages, but I think that the current look is better because it shows more buildings. I know the format is wrong, but you can see more images this way and they are lined up with the names, which saves redundant descriptions next to the pictures. I think this format is better. Still, I made the images bigger so that they could actually be seen and differentiated.DaronDierkes (talk) 08:05, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
List of airlines of the People's Republic of China
Hey there my old arch-nemesis, haha, just a quick note in regards to List of airlines of the People's Republic of China. I, as well as yourself, no doubt, don't want to get into an edit war or the like on this article, so what I am proposing is that the article be left in the form in which I wrote it, and we can discuss it at WP:AIRLINES, so that we can involve the entire project. This way we can have everyone reading off the same page. If an agreement can't be reached on the project page, then we can look at other avenues, but I sincerely hope that we can reach an agreement and concensus as a group. Can we both agree to that? Cheers mate --Russavia (talk) 17:46, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Bugger, I forgot to mention that I will start the section on the airline project page, and have already started writing up info on what my viewpoint is as well as what your viewpoint is (feel free to correct me if I misinterpret what I will write there of course), so please just wait until my 'thread' appears, it shouldn't be too long ok. Cheers --Russavia (talk) 17:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply. Can I ask is if it is also your personal opinion that Hong Kong and Macau are too be included in these lists, or is this a position you take due it being the way that Chinese articles seem to be done? Would be good to know, so that I can think about a few things. :) Cheers --Russavia (talk) 18:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- Oh yeah, the other thing I forgot to ask for, in this edit, you mention Chinese conventions. I have looked for them, but can't be sure if I have found the right ones. Could you possibly point me in the right direction and shoot me over a link to them. Cheers --Russavia (talk) 19:01, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Airport
The flag is rep. the airport itself, not country. It is not necessary to politise everything in wiki. Pls pay attention to the title of the column, it printed as "airport". Coloane (talk) 13:26, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- My point is: if you change the title of airport to country on that table, then you did the right job. It means I don't object you change to PRC flag. Coloane (talk) 13:32, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Take a look over the title of that table, it printed as "airport", not country. Coloane (talk) 13:37, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- So both of us already broke 3RR. Do you want to esclate it? Coloane (talk) 13:38, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Reason already explained very clearly. The title of that table from that specific col. is AIRPORT, not COUNTRY. Coloane (talk) 13:40, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Purple Storm.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Purple Storm.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 04:58, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Singapore 2010 YOG
Hi Huaiwei. Just wanted to be courteous and let you know I reverted your deletions of the CBD images of Singapore. I agree that they are not perfect, but I think they are defininately relevant to the pages, particularly the 2010 YOG page. When we are closer to the Games, or if a enthusiastic Singapore Wikipedian can get better pics, we can certainly update them.
Incidently, I noticed you have been having some conflict over the entry of Singapore in the Olympics Template. I made a specific template for the YOG a few days ago which is on all the relevant pages. Naturally, it is the only city listed right now. I hope that works as a compromise for you. Cheers--Cbradshaw (talk) 04:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)
- Wow, Huaiwei. Thanks for your comments. I'm sorry we disagree. I respectfully disagree that it's just "any picture", because this is the city that won the bid. Certainly, the image of Singapore is very valuable to me, but do what you wish.
- As for the template, it is merely an adaptaion of the existing template, so if you find it poorly made, you're welcome to improve it. I will not merge it however, and I think the concensus I have read prefers a separate template. I do agree with you that the 2010 YOG should not be devalued "merely" because they are the Junior edition, but there was discussion at some length a few months ago that editors did not want the YOG cities listed on the main template. (Can't remember where though, maybe the Olympics project) If you have an issue with that, you may want to start another discussion. Cheers--Cbradshaw (talk) 05:41, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Singapore Changi Airport
Hi there! I'm trying to get this article back into a properly work edition as the "references" is in a complete mess now and I'm at a lost. I suspect that references No.30 might be the cause of it all although I can't really prove it or decipher it due to some much gibberish. -- Dave1185 (talk) 03:29, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Purple Storm.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Purple Storm.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 14:21, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
Please consider taking another look at this case. Ultimately, we all want the same thing; a better article...I understand that you feel the consensus at MedCab does not need to be upheld regardless of circumstances (after all, consensus can change), but from what I've seen, other parties are willing to abide by consensus if you will do so.

Movement of Hong Kong Olympic pages
Hi, please consider the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Olympics/Archive 3#IOC designations, where we had consensus on the article names. The idea was to use the common name for nations where possible, especially where they match the main Wikipedia article name for the nation. Therefore, we have Libya at the 2004 Summer Olympics and not Libyan Arab Jamahiriya at the 2004 Summer Olympics and so on. In Hong Kong's case we agreed that simply using Hong Kong at the Olympics etc. was suitable, especially considering the main article for the territory is at Hong Kong. For now, I am going to re-rename the top-level article back to Hong Kong at the Olympics but keep the 2000-2006 article names unchanged, pending further discussion. Also, I do think your rename of Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China is entirely appropriate, so there is no need for discussion about that. Thanks — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 22:19, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
FlagIOC template changes
I also noticed your change to {{flagIOC}}
to allow for variable country names, just as variable flag images are used. You did not make any changes to any of the other flagIOC
templates — was that an oversight, or intentional? They should really all behave the same way. Also note that I had to undo part of your changes to flagIOC
. You completely removed the name
parameter, yet it is used quite a bit. Again, was that intentional, or an oversight? Thanks — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 22:19, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Olympic page renaming
Hi, I noticed your changes to GHA and GUY — thanks for that! I think they are the only two historic nations that need that treatment. The other name changes (e.g. Ceylon→Sri Lanka, British Honduras→Belize, etc.) were also accompanied by code changes. Therefore, we already use CEY or SRI, or HBR or BIZ, depending on the year. Gold Coast and British Guiana pre-dated code usage, so that approach couldn't be used there. But thanks for taking care of that; one less thing for me to do today! — Andrwsc (talk · contribs) 18:39, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

I bring to your attention this image as Jannisri had uploaded it, seemed to me more like a posed shot for a MAS commercial ad than a self-work. Thus a copyvio might be in question here. -- Dave1185 (talk) 11:46, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
Singapore Airlines
Hi! I think with regards to the page of Singapore Airlines, Russavia has a valid point there as all the other airlines in Asia has that same kind of infobox added whether we like it or not. We can be bold and unique but we can also be conformative at times too. -- Dave1185 (talk) 21:38, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
- Well it is not the infobox which is the issue...it is the entry for "parent company" which caused a huge conflict a few months back. It only died down when someone else simply deleted that field out right, so if he wants to add it in again, than he is simply asking for trouble.--Huaiwei (talk) 21:59, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Parent company of Singapore Airlines
Huaiwei, your constant reverting of the verifiable parent company of Singapore Airlines being Temasek is unacceptable. I have addressed your revisions for the umpteenth time on the talk page, and for the umpteenth time you have chosen not to respond and have continued to ignore it, this is not acceptable, for none of us are about any of the WP policies. We use verifiable, reliable sources here on WP, we are not the unofficial PR organ for Singapore Airlines or Temasek or any other entity, whether they be Singaporean or non-Singaporean. I suggest that you check subsidiary and parent company, and learn what these terms mean, for when Singapore Airlines states in its annual report it is a subsidiary of Temasek, this can mean only one thing.....that Temasek is the parent company. Further reverting of this verifiable information will be reported and you can be sure that I will ensure that you will not be allowed to continue to operate like that. --Россавиа Диалог 08:54, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
- Resolved? I think not Huaiwei. Unless by resolved you mean that you completely ignore anything and everything that anyone else has to say, refuse to recognise reliable sources, and flat out refuse to recognise policies on verifiability, and continue to assert your ownership in doing so, then yes, it has been resolved. However, this is not the SingaporeAirlinesPRpedia or TemasekPRpedia, and it does not matter if Temasek doesn't state that it is the parent company of Singapore Airlines (hell, they don't even have a complete list of companies and shareholdings), it does matter that a multitude of reliable sources state that it is, and incredulously, many of these same sources are already referenced within the article. Additionally, as the airline is listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange, this information is required to be disclosed, and this has been pointed out within various reports which have been referenced. Now one of two things is happening here. One, you don't know what the relationship between a subsidiary and parent company is, in which case, read those two articles, and if still not clear, then ask a wider audience for further assistance. Or two, you are doing this on purpose, whether that is to hide the fact that SIA is a government-controlled airline, being a subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, or whatever reason is not important, but if it turns out you are doing this on purpose, this has caused me over 9 months of headaches and sheer frustration, and I will ensure that this will be reported; remember it can be noted there are other Singapore editors who have even noted that this information was missing. The choice is yours Huaiwei, ask for further assistance at your Singapore project if need be, but this is not a NPOV dispute, but a dispute over providing relevant, verifiable information from reliable sources (me) and removing verifiable information on false pretences (claiming that reliable sources such as Forbes and IHT are not reliable, although there is of course evidence that they are more than reliable for our purposes. --Россавиа Диалог 09:37, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
I was wondering if you can look over the Samsui women page, and see if anything can be improved. I really hope that page can become a good (or even featured) article in the future. Arbiteroftruth (talk) 17:11, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
Good use of tables. Can you add the statistics for the other continents (ie not just Asia Pacific), or could be just stick to what was originally there (top 21 routes)? Thanks Kransky (talk) 12:20, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
- well one of us will have to complete the article (or some other writer). I was in Singapore from Monday to Wednesday - flew out to SYD on the A380. Kransky (talk) 13:33, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
Huaiwei
As a friend, please allow me to say this. With regards to issues on Singapore Changi Airport and Singapore Airlines, I think you really need to chill down a bit because you are seriously putting off a lot of people here, that doesn't include me because I work here, it doesn't matter what is being discussed online when I have real life schedules to meet whenever aircraft on ground (AOG) and I got to turn them around in the shortest possible time. Meaning, I don't like to talk shop after work but I do enjoy editing and improving on other articles here on wikipedia. It's a joy I really enjoyed and I hope you have not forget that kind of feeling since joining wiki. Cheers. -- Dave1185 (talk) 06:43, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
- FYI, I am not condemning nor accusing you of any wrongdoings. Sure, I know what you mean but sometimes ownership issues of article can get in our way of perception, no doubt it is a good thing that we as Singaporeans take pride in the achievements of our nation but there has got to be a line drawn somewhere as to how best follow the wikipedia guidelines with regards to how an article is being written and presented. Your passion for defending articles/issues related to Singapore is unquestionable and it isn't necessarily a bad thing. However, one should also take note of other editors/users on wikipedia who wish to contribute. Look at the articles of SAR-21 and Ultimax 100, you would see what I mean... I wanted to contribute but there are a few overzealous being who continuously shoot down whatever I wrote just because they edit those articles and would not allow others to edit it. It is times like these that I felt that I could bring my full weight of my experience in the SAF to bear but after some thoughts I just said, forget about it! I moved on to the next subject or project, just as what I did to 125 Squadron, Republic of Singapore Air Force, 140 Squadron, Republic of Singapore Air Force, RAF Chia Keng, Pandan Gardens, Pulau Sakeng and Toa Payoh Police Division. Above all, we are all here to enjoy the wiki experience and not to make enemies but if stepping on a few toes is what it takes to make our stand then so be it. Thank you for reading, sincere regards and cheers. --Dave1185 (talk) 01:23, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Strike!
Effective immediately, for your direct responses to my comments on any article, I'm going to start striking out the parts that address me as opposed to the issue at hand. You are hereby invited to do the same to my responses. Jpatokal (talk) 15:51, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
Reorganization
I want to know why the word Mainland was removed completely from the article. It appears extensively on the official website http://torchrelay.beijing2008.cn/, and the BOCOG itself considers the Hong Kong and Macau legs to be international http://torchrelay.beijing2008.cn/upload/c/guoji.swf . Taipei was also planned to be one of the legs on the international route. The Mainland route begins in Sanya. http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/olympics/2008-03/20/content_6553393.htm http://www.china.com.cn/zhibo/2008-03/19/content_13031191.htm http://en.beijing2008.cn/news/official/preparation/n214273725.shtml Fanqing!!

3RR Rule
Please refrain from repeatedly undoing other people's edits, as you are doing in 2008 Summer Olympics torch relay. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. The three-revert rule (3RR) prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. Rather than reverting, please discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you. Dustitalk to me 19:55, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
