Thank you for voting at my RFA. Even though you did not vote for me, your counsel was appreciated. In the next few months, I intend to work on expanding my involvement in other namespaces and try a few different subjects than in the past. - CTSWynekenTalk |

Filipino writers
It's news to me that this is even expected. All I've ever been told before today was that "subst" was a specific part of some templates and not others. Bearcat 06:49, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your message. Do kindly help me since I am doing a constructive edit. I am having problems how to properly do it the wikipedia way since I am relatively new here.
"Filipino writers" as a category is problematic since it is ambiguous. it may refer to the Philippines national language "Filipino."
The problem is, the Philippines has at least 80 languages and many of these languages have their own literatures. Using "Filipino" to describe writers and literatures from the Philippines can be controversial, ambiguous and politically incorrect. Writers in the other Philippine languages may be offended.
What I did was to move what was previously under "Filipino writers" and transfer these names under the category "Writers from the Philippines."
"Writers from the Philippines" is a more appropriate category to embrace all writers from the Philippines -- whether they are writing in that country's various literary languages: English, Filipino, Spanish, Tagalog, Ilocano, Bikol, Kapampangan, Hiligaynon, Cebuano, Kiniray-a and several others. This category does not offend those who are writing in the other Philippine languages.
There is a strong resentment towards "Filipino" language since the language was largely derived from "Tagalog." The Philippine government implemented this as a policy in 1935 during the period of Philippine Commonwealth under the United States. The creation of "Tagalog" as "Pilipino" (and later, as "Filipino") as a national language marginalized the other Philippine languages. many of these other languages in the countryside are now either dying or extinct.
Feel free to ask further questions. I am actually a scholar working on Southeast Asian Cultures and Societies so I am very familiar with the subject.
Many thanks for your concern and kind attention. - 7258 16:50, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
Thank you very much
Thanks. I am just struggling to learn edit summary. I was a bit confused since I discovered that writers from the Philippines and other items related to Philippine literature are quite disorganized. I am trying to find a way to make coherent and structured categorizations. There's still a lot to learn and I can only thank people like you for being around to help me. I also have very strong convictions against vandalism. I understand your concern. Thanks so much and do keep in touch should there be a need for me to be reminded or instructed further. - 7258 16:58, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of templates
If you nominate a template for speedy deletion, please use <noinclude>...</noinclude> tags around the {{db}}. Otherwise all pages carrying the template will end up in CAT:CSD. I disagree with speedily deleting the template you nominated, I suggest you go through WP:TFD to have it deleted in the normal non-speedy way. Happy editing, Kusma (討論) 00:05, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
Ruud van Nistelrooy
My apologies. I removed a redundant list of the clubs he played for. My mistake not to state that in the summary.
WWE Draft
Should'nt Kane be deleted from that list because he was drafted to SD
Fighting vandals is appreciated, but do not use vandalproof for British/American spelling issues. The correct spelling is "center" not "centre" in this instance. - RoyBoy 800 04:46, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
VandalProof 1.2 Now Available
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f4/Vandalprooflock.jpg/180px-Vandalprooflock.jpg)
After a lenghty, but much-needed Wikibreak, I'm happy to announce that version 1.2 of VandalProof is now available for download! Beyond fixing some of the most obnoxious bugs, like the persistent crash on start-up that many have experienced, version 1.2 also offers a wide variety of new features, including a stub-sorter, a global user whitelist and blacklist, navigational controls, and greater customization. You can find a full list of the new features here. While I believe this release to be a significant improvement over the last, it's nonetheless nowhere near the end of the line for VandalProof. Thanks to Rob Church, I now have an account on test.wikipedia.org with SysOp rights and have already been hard at work incorporating administrative tools into VandalProof, which I plan to make available in the near future. An example of one such SysOp tool that I'm working on incorporating is my simple history merge tool, which simplifies the process of performing history merges from one article into another. Anyway, if you haven't already, I'd encourage you to download and install version 1.2 and take it out for a test-drive. As always, your suggestions for improvement are always appreciated, and I hope that you will find this new version useful. Happy editing! --AmiDaniel (talk) 02:57, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

He's left anyway, but I don't need to report him: I'm an admin and I could just block him. I wouldn't, however. 1ne 23:55, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
