Post-War Vietnam Suicides

Good catch with the source. 20,000 suicides just as of 1977! Quite shocking, and I'm sure those deaths have been forgotten by most people. However, the site that republished it is probably not reliable, so I'll change the citation a bit when I get the chance. Cheers,TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 13:53, 11 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

tai and tay

Do you pronounce tai and tay as the same way ? Fête (talk) 18:01, 21 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

diff.
In daily life, the pronunciation nearly the same, they are distinguished by the context.--Cheers! (talk) 09:29, 31 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Guess what?

Zrdragon12's latest edit warring sockpuppet, User:Kabulbuddha, has been permanently blocked due to an SPI investigation. I'm glad you were spared having to deal with his insanity again. Cheers,TheTimesAreAChanging (talk) 17:01, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, wow...some people really are relentless...Yea, thank God for that, we, esp. I, was driven to complete madness and exhaustion the last time he waged a war on wiki, running around after him. Thanks for those involved in reporting and acting on the griffon, a new Vietnam War on wiki was averted. Thanks TimesAChanging for telling me. Have a great weekend!
Oh, you did had to put up with the devilish griffon again...urgh more madness and frustration again. Kabul "Buddha", haa! The griffon's nothing like Gautame Buddha and is just insulting Buddha with his behaviour. Nguyen1310 (talk) 04:18, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Koreans in China

I don't even know where to begin with this. How about reading what other people have said, and thinking about what you have been told, before making any rash decisions? The behaviour and actions that I have seen on your behalf so far amount to little more than childish behaviour, a mere refusal to open your ears to others. It's becoming disruptive, and quite irritating for others who have to work alongside you.

You keep going on and on about how China is authoritarian, how people have no rights, et cetera, and somehow this correlates to your edits being absolutely right, and that everything from China is undoubtedly non-credible, regardless of the intricate details. What do your points have to do with anything that has been brought up? This non sequitur that you repeat over and over ad nauseam does not address the points that I have made at all, and it appears that you are merely shouting the same points in ignorance of what others are trying to tell you.

Sure, China is authoritarian, no doubt about that. That does not mean that the people there are robotic drones that have no personal opinions; that does not mean that all reports from China can be instantly regarded as propagandistic bollocks; that does not mean that all polls conducted in China are definitely and undeniably rigged. You are merely clouding your conscience with your own ignorance, based on your own personal beliefs (which from the looks of your userpage appear to be to be rather right-wing), and your self-affirmation of your own points can be seen as a way to strengthen your own perceptions, completely oblivious of the ignorance that you are showing. You write that the poll was "was conducted in an authoritarian, undemocratic nation", which somehow magically makes it rigged - do you have any realistic reasoning to justify this conclusion, other than a gut feeling or the reductio ad Hitlerum that you've been repeating over and over which doesn't correlate?

"Freedom" in itself is a fluid concept that is subjective. Sure, in China you cannot protest against the government or participate in demonstrations without expecting some sort of retaliation from the government, and in the United States you can. Someone from China can then argue that in the United States, you are not free to express your sexuality in the army without being subject to hate crimes, that you cannot engage in the freedom of sharing files (in America, you get three times the jail time for downloading "Michael Jackson's Greatest Hits" than you do for actually killing Michael Jackson), and that you cannot engage in the freedom to conduct stem cell research. Furthermore, the perceived lack of freedom in China has not prevented it from maintaining a news media that reports facts, despite censorship. Sure, controversial topics are censored, but does that mean that they are lying when they say that "3 people died in a bus collision on the G3 Highway yesterday at 11:00"? Simply because a poll is conducted in China, does that mean that people naturally spout the party line? What makes an anonymous poll conducted in China any different from one conducted elsewhere?

Yours truly, -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email 05:53, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And just so that we're on the record, in reply to your comment "You must be an extreme socialist to tell me that CCTV are credible as BBC and others", I'm actually one of the most far-right people you might ever come across, you might be actually quite surprised on my own views. I'm just not blinded by rhetoric to the point where I become ignorant to viewing all sides of the dice and completely disregard WP:NPOV. -- 李博杰  | —Talk contribs email 06:06, 6 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

song on the video

There is lot of music on that video with a length of one hour. If you should mean the classical piano piece in the very beginning, I suppose, it must be a composition of Chopin. From German Wikipedia --Ulrich Waack (talk) 10:12, 25 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Naming conventions

Do you have any opinions about the naming conventions for Vietnamese? I wrote a page on this a while back, but now someone is trying to rewrite it and remove its "guideline" status. See Wikipedia_talk:Naming_conventions_(Vietnamese)#.22In_discussion.22_tags_need_to_stay and my user page. Kauffner (talk) 04:17, 23 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Theresa Spence

I expect you'll be writing up the AfD shortly?

Also, you may have missed it, but I specifically commented on the talk page about the information and source you restored. While I don't think the material is a clear WP:BLP violation, it's close enough that it needs to be reviewed. Would you like to start at WP:RSN, or perhaps comment on the talk page first? --Ronz (talk) 03:06, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, i support in keeping this article. It pertains to a person well-known enough, well at least domestically, to have a wiki article being written about her. Nguyen1310 (talk) 03:07, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Then why did you restore the AfD notice? --Ronz (talk) 03:16, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for cleaning up! However, you've not addressed my concerns on the other content. If you're not interested in doing so, I'm going to remove it again and start a new discussion to highlight the concerns I've already expressed. --Ronz (talk) 18:43, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm Ronz. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, but that you didn’t support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. [1] --Ronz (talk) 04:29, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Misuse of an edit summary

You should know better than to add to an edit summary comment about something unrelated to your edit that in fact belongs on the talk page. In fact, to say "aside, its obvious Spence isn't in true hunger strike.she's consuming liquid items, eg "fish broth", no?and after a 28-29 day strike, she should be skinny by now, but no" is probably a BLP violation as the definition of a hunger strike includes a liquid diet. Dougweller (talk) 06:14, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Vietnam online commentators

I saw your comment here, after reading this story on BBC about Vietnamese "50 cent party". Do you think that we could create an article about the phenomenon? I'm having some trouble finding sources. Is there a specific Vietnamese-language term for them, and do you have any more information? Shrigley (talk) 00:29, 17 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
