Tila (re: [1])

Tila Nguyen is 1/4 French, 3/4 Vietnamese. Isn't that mixed? Pink moon1287 12:29, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Honestly, on the internet I've read anywhere from that she's part French, quarter French, half French, to that she's not mixed at all. None of these sources came from Tila herself. If you insist on putting her in the Eurasian article, go ahead, it's not a big deal to me and I won't oppose it. But until I see a source straight from her, I personally wouldn't assume she's mixed.

Template:User zh-beifang

In Chinese Wikipedia the templates are named as Template:User zh-cmn . Would you like to synchronise the names of the templates? -Hello World! 16:34, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see why we necessarily have to. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 18:23, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The reason is that we'd comply the ISO 639 and RFC 3066 standards as many as possible.--Hello World! 01:16, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you really want to change them, by all means, go ahead. It's not a big deal to me. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 05:40, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, you are too pathetic. You can't revert other people's work without good reasons. Wang Xin 17:12, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have a good reason. You're a sock. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 17:12, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Image:RitaFan.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:RitaFan.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. -- Chowbok ☠ 00:48, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:DavidHo.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:DavidHo.jpg. The image description page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. 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 any fair use images lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

New Chinese surname categories up for deletion

A new editor has just added a number of categories for Chinese surnames, which I believe to be very useful, particularly in grouping individuals who share a common surname but use different romanizations. As is usually the case at the Categories for Deletion area, the people who frequent that place generally try to delete every new category, regardless of whether they understand its use. In this case, they seem not to understand the utility of being able to have a category for everyone with the name "Liu," for example. Please voice your opinion here.

Image:Brenda Song.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Brenda Song.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Yamla 20:39, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, fair-use images may not be used to depict living people. Your recent changes to Image:Brenda Song.jpg and Brenda Song have been reverted. Please do not readd the image. --Yamla 21:41, 8 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is your last warning.
The next time you vandalize a page, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. --Yamla 03:40, 9 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your recent edit to Image:Brenda Song.jpg, don't forget to add an explanation to the image's talk page as to why you think it impossible to create a free image of Brenda Song. For example, please provide evidence that she is dead or has gone into hiding. If you are unwilling to do so, please immediately revert your recent changes to that image. Additionally, you added a fair-use tag but have not provided any detailed fair-use rationale to the image page. --Yamla 17:52, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for providing a rationale. Unfortunately, as I have mentioned several times, we are not permitted to use a fair-use image solely to depict a living person. Please see WP:FU. I will delete this image now. Thanks. --Yamla 18:07, 11 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your revert on Chinese people

You are off the point. The thing is that Han Chinese consider them as ethnically Han. Many Chinese people as well as people in the West consider Tibetans and Chinese Mongolian minorities as Chinese. They only distinguish them sometimes from Han Chinese. It doesn't necessarily mean Tibetans and Chinese Mongolians are not Chinese. In addition, overseas Chinese interact more with people in the West. They should be listed as one of the bullet points here. Ated 17:26, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Spawn of Snle

Jesus, this person never stops creating socks! And I can never figure out what exactly is the point of any the edits -- maybe s/he doesn't know either. Badagnani 18:36, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a way to check if this is a sock? If s/he is not using a computer lab or switching computers each time (or switching IPs, which is possible if one is computer knowledgeable enough) then it can be checked. I think there was an IP check for Snle a month or two ago, and several dozen (!) socks were located. We can't allow that kind of thing. Badagnani 18:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I think we're just going to have to file for a sockpuppet check or an IP check. It's a hassle and I don't really want to do it right now though. Maybe later. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 19:06, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Anyway, I filed for semi-protection and now both the article and the talk page are semi-protected. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 19:09, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese people

Since the talk page is blocked for no reasons, I'll write here. I agree with you that some people in the West don't consider some Chinese ethnic groups as ethnic Chinese. But others do. For example, Uighur people live in China for thousands of years and most of them live within China. Even those who don't consider Uighurs as ethnic Chinese, they generally consider other Chinese ethnic groups that ain't that different from Han Chinese as ethnic Chinese. My wording "People of Chinese descent" doesn't say all Chinese ethnic groups are ethnic Chinese either. Ated 21:24, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, the second bullet point of the article covers that. Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 21:52, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Snle

Hey, no problem. I've semi-protected the page. Snle actually stopped editing Wikipedia for a month or so (at least it appeared that way), until he returned as User:NKH. Since then, he's gone through a number of sockpuppets and some IPs. That's why I created User:Khoikhoi/Snle. I suppose I should eventually list all of them there, but there are literally hundreds. Also it contradicts WP:DENY... Cheers, Khoikhoi 20:35, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Some advice needed

Okay, I somehow crossed the path of User:John Smith's again on Mao Zedong. I was re-writing the introduction and John Smith reverted my edit on sight...mmm, hasty. He didn't struck me as somebody willing to discuss faithfully the last time I conflicted with him. Any advice? Aran|heru|nar 14:02, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

From the discussion on the Talk page, it seems like you two are coming to a compromise. Or am I wrong about that? Hong Qi Gong (Talk - Contribs) 17:13, 19 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey!

Should we re-attempt to nominate Portal:Hong Kong for featured status? I have created and formatted the archival page for all rotating contents. The portal should meet all criterias now. AQu01rius (User  Talk) 04:20, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your reverts on Yellowworld

Hello! On December 21, 2006 you put on my user page:

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Note that the three-revert rule 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, discuss disputed changes on the talk page. The revision you want is not going to be implemented by edit warring. Thank you.

Your reverts:

I suggest a compromise on the discussion page, and ask that you do not undo other people's edits repeatedly as well. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Thank you.
