Flag icons on ship article infoboxes

Please note that flag icons only hold meaning to ship articles in regard to the question of the Port of Registry for the ship (ie: under what flag does the ship sail). Because of this, I reverted this edit on the MS Oasis of the Seas article. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:25, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

FYI: The "Turku Finland" information refers to the physical location of the shipyard where the construction was done by the builder. This is documented here. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:39, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes, but that has nothing to do with the builder - that information belongs to location, not to the builder, who is STX Europe. Alohahell (talk) 19:40, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Actually, the way it should have been worded (as is common in other ship articles) is "STX Europe yards in Turku Finland". --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:42, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

The builder is STX Europe, not "STX Europe yards". There is no shipbuilder company called "STX Europe yards". "Turku Finland" doesn't belong here, it should go to the location section. Alohahell (talk) 19:47, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

There is no "built location" field. It has never been needed before because the use in other ship articles has been to place the physical location of the shipyard used by the builder in the "built" field. I'll bring this up at WT:SHIPS so that input from others involved in ship articles can also review this issue. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 19:51, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

FYI: A discussion has been started at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Ships#Request additional input on the use of the "Ship builder" field. Your input at that discussion page would be appreciated. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 20:02, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Copyright violations

Stop violating copyrights by uploading copyrighted photos and claiming they were your own work. File:Shinsegae Centum City department store in Busan, South Korea.jpg was not your own work, and now I am going to have to check the rest of your uploads as well.

If you continue violating copyrights, your account will be blocked. rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 16:54, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

No problem and no need to threaten me like that (so scared now!! LOL), I have a picture I took of the department store while I was in Busan last summer, that will do, right? ^^ Alohahell (talk) 16:57, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

In the meantime, would you care to tell me which other photo uploads of yours are photos you did not take? rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 17:05, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

I only uploaded the department store pic from guinness world records because I couldn't find a nice looking night view of it. Trust me, it looks way better at night with LED lighting all over it!! But I do have a day view of it, which still looks nice. All other pictures as far as I know, are all mine and edited with PhotoScape. What do you think of my pics btw? ^^ Alohahell (talk) 17:09, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Oh, and you have ignored my previous question.. -_-;

File:World's largest department store in Busan, South Korea.jpg is, no offense, a rather low-quality image—low resolution, dull colors, lots of aliasing. If you're such a talented photographer and you have access to such great views and editing software, may I ask why this image is so much worse than the rest of the images you've uploaded? rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 17:37, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

LOL I'm NOT a talented photographer. Thanks for the compliment, but I'm really not. ;) Alohahell (talk) 05:30, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

So, in other words, you didn't photograph most of the pictures you've uploaded. Right? rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 23:37, 4 January 2010 (UTC)

Did I say that? No. I rejected your compliment, that's all. My photographs are vastly better than the ones in Wikipedia. Don't you think? I've made many articles much better with my photographs. Alohahell (talk) 07:05, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

No, adding copyvio to articles does not improve them.

And by the way, I never intended what I said as a compliment. You have not done anything deserving of compliment. I was merely pointing out the inconsistency in the claims you make about your uploads. rʨanaɢ ^talk/_contribs 06:35, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi! :) How did you get into North Korea to take that photo of the hotel? Isn't it illegal to take photos in the country? Glad you made it out alive! :) Brisbane Man (talk) 13:37, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
