Lillian Too

[edit]

Hi. I disagree with your edit of Lillian Too. The reference to a person's place of birth is not one of history. I believe it should be a reference to what the place is called today, as it is most relevant in this context. I have been to Malaysia, and I have never met any older person that says that they are born in "Malaya". They always say that they are born in "Malaysia". Please also see Jimmy Choo and Robert Kuok. If we can't agree, then maybe we can compromise and change it to "(born 1946, in Penang) is a best-selling Malaysian author...". Alternatively, if you still disagree, then I suggest that we take this discussion to the Malaysian portal to get thier opinion. -- S Masters 01:28, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

One more thing, why should Lillian be listed under the Hong Kong businesspeople category? She's not from Hong Kong. She's Malaysian but once worked in Hong Kong. That's all. If we are going to list every country that people have worked in, or have had business in, then somelike like Rupert Murdoch, Richard Branson and Tony Fernandes will have multiple country categories under them. -- S Masters 03:12, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Would Julius Caesar be considered to be born in Italy? She is not from Hong Kong, but from the article she seems to have been an important and influential figure. - Privacy 15:53, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Please refrain from attempting to unilaterally reverse the decisions of *FD debates, especially where templates feeding categories are concerned, as these cause a disproportionate load on the servers, which have to update the cached version of each page in the category. If you have an objection to such a closure, take it to deletion review. Alai 20:35, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You should discuss changes like the one you made on List of countries on the talk page before making them. It might be right, but it's still always good to make sure people are in agreement with you when you make fairly significant changes. You should also always include an edit summary for a major edit like that as well.  OzLawyer / talk  00:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly, someone wanted consensus for such a change. Don't you think it would be prudent to discuss the issue on the talk page like I suggested instead of simply reverting?  OzLawyer / talk  20:04, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There was no consensus to make them two categories and two lists. - Privacy 20:07, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm talking about your revert and earlier unilateral change of the status quo on List of countries.  OzLawyer / talk  20:16, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Exactly. Look into edit history. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_countries&diff=12766176&oldid=12699939 And there was no consensus to take them away from List of dependent territories and create a new list with a self invent title. Define unilateral before you call anybody. Regards. - Privacy 20:30, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Excuse me

[edit]

Privacy, you seem to be having some difficulty understanding the situation. Yesterday you made a major edit to List of countries, an edit which changed something on the page that had stood for MONTHS before, and which seemed to have been agreed upon. You did not discuss this change on the talk page. You did not even provide an edit summary for this change. I noted this to you as seen above. Someone else reverted this change asking for consensus. You reverted that. I reverted you and asked for at least discussion of the issue. In response, you are now claiming vandalism. I am going to revert the page once again and I ask you to discuss your proposed change on the talk page before trying to change it back. Do you understand? I hope so.  OzLawyer / talk  20:28, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Show it if what stood for months has ever been agreed upon. "Seemed to" is no qualifier. It was actually never discussed.
Check the differences carefully. Huaiwei and you really vandalized. Regards. - Privacy 20:33, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please stop undoing useful edits. It is vandalism unless you were unaware and was innocent. Regards. - Privacy 20:38, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
How about this edit from June: [1]? Clearly, if the page has been that way for months there has been agreement that that is the way it should be. If you want to make a drastic change to the page, you need to at least discuss it. How can you possibly consider what we are doing vandalism? You're the one who made the drastic change and didn't even leave an edit summary or discuss it on the talk page, let alone gather consensus.  OzLawyer / talk  20:40, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It is not drastic change or major edit. There has never been any agreement. It is not an agreement though it was not challenged. (The new list Wilfried Derksen created with self invented title was challenged, however.)
Huaiwei and you keep reverting entirely and in effect undoing other useful edits. It is vandalism. You may be unware and innocent, and therefore should not be blamed, yet such behaviour is still disturbing and nuisance. - Privacy 20:47, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Privacy, we do not agree that your edit is "useful", and so we are entirely within our rights to revert it. You are being awfully stubborn in not responding to our requests to discuss the reasoning behind your edit. If the section stayed the way it was for months, then there is an implied consensus. You should always discuss major changes (and it is a major change, even if you don't think so) before making them. Claiming that we are vandalizing is also a violation of assuming good faith. I suggest you discuss your change on the talk page immediately--you will only find others revert it and ask for consensus or at least your reasoning if you don't.  OzLawyer / talk  20:55, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I did assume good faith. I also look at result. Huaiwei's and your edit reverted everything, contentious or not, therefore the result was vandalism. And you did it once again.
Consensus is difficult to be determined to be implied. It became clearer that it is not agreed since it was challenged, although elsewhere. It is not a major edit or drastic change or major changes, even if you claim to be. You can bring it to the talk page when you revert, if you believe it is a major edit, and notify me here to respond there. But you didn't. - Privacy 21:07, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
There was only one thing to revert, so of course we reverted everything.  OzLawyer / talk  22:13, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If you are not innocent, please stop pretending you don't know what you have done. - Privacy 20:25, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You are in danger of violating the three-revert rule. Please cease further reverts or you may be blocked from editing. Khoikhoi 22:17, 4 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I see my username being quoted three times, all of which were basically saying the same thing. This repeatitive conversation style hints of an acute stubborn personality, a characteristic which arguably contributes the greatest to User:Instantnood's downfall. Quite sadly, you appear to take him as your role model.--Huaiwei 16:47, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The whole thread was clearly repetitive. But I don't think Instantnood has left any message to the thread, has he? - Privacy 16:57, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
And why should he?--Huaiwei 17:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Your original edit on this page was, indeed, a major edit. I did not catch that your subsequent edits were not as drastic, the reason being that your edit summary described them as reverts. I apologize for not recognizing this, but it is important in the future that you not label something a revert if it is not.  OzLawyer / talk  01:03, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You are an administrator and I suppose you know you have the duty to read what each edit is. I have seriously thought of bringing your disruptions to the notice board. It was obviously a revert of your nuisance and therefore summarise as such. You don't have to apologize as long as you are innocent. Regards. (And thank you, Electionworld.) - Privacy 20:26, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I do indeed have a "duty" to read each edit, but generally, if someone marks their edit as a revert when it is not (and it was not, apparently), it is likely going to cause some confusion. I apologized for my mistake (and I assure you that it was a mistake). I'm not sure what else you could want.  OzLawyer / talk  20:34, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
You have the duty to single out what should be undone, and what do not have to be undone in the first place. You should not have reverted the whole of my edit in the very beginning. - Privacy 20:35, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I think it very unlikely that one would be expected to pick out a possible improvement in a drastic edit which was not discussed and re-insert that part of the edit. Generally, one is expected to re-add uncontested edits which come after the edit being reverted, but I can't be held responsible for noting a minor wording change along with your major edit, decide that it is "worthy" of inclusion, and re-add it. Your edit was a wholesale change to the structure of the outline—that you also made a couple wording changes along with it is really not my job to fix. All that had to happen was for you to do what you, in fact, did do, and that is add them back yourself. The only reason I ended up reverting again was because you called this edit a revert, and of course, it wasn't. Again, I apologize for not noticing that your revert was not actually a revert, but it might be helpful if you also simply acknowledged that you made a mistake in calling it a revert as well. Then maybe we could get on with actually improving the list.  OzLawyer / talk  20:45, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If you are reverting everything, including improvements, that is already a disturbance. Not to mention your reverting that followed. That is clearly not my mistake. I do not agree my edit was a wholesale change to the struture of the outline, by the way. - Privacy 20:49, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, first, you called something a revert that was not a revert. Is that not a mistake? I think (actually, I know) that is a mistake. Why not accept some responsibility? I accepted mine.
Second, you changed the classification of four entities that were considered first and foremost, "special entities recognized by international treaty or agreement" and re-classed them as primarily dependent territories. I think that, in fact, is a major change to the structure of the outline. I think most would likely not agree with that reclassification. Aland, for instance, could not be considered a dependent territory—according to its article, it is "an autonomous, demilitarised, monolingually Swedish-speaking administrative province." An administrative province could never be considered a dependent territory. The other entities are in similar situations. I would certainly call such a change major.  OzLawyer / talk  21:03, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It was a revert to your nuisance. Why is it not a revert? I made that change but I don't agree it was a major change. Greenland, Aruba, Faroe Islands, Dutch Antilles were neither dependencies if Aland were not. - Privacy 21:13, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Issue 1: A revert is when you take an old version and make it the current version. That is, when I revert your edit, I make the edit prior to yours the new current one. You did not revert my edit, you made a new edit which had some of what was in the original edit, but not nearly enough to be considered a revert.
Issue 2: The other entities you mentioned above are territories. Territories are generally considered something different from provinces, states, autonomous entities, etc. They are less integral to the countries they belong to. This is why, for instance, the Falkland Islands are considered to be suitable for List of countries while the Azores are not. The Azores are an integral part of Portugal (they are considered Portugal proper even while having a sort of autonomous status), while the Falkland Islands are not considered part of the United Kingdom proper, just something owned or controlled by the United Kingdom. Those entities in the "special entities recognized by international treaty or agreement" category would, if not recognized by treaty or agreement, be considered more like the Azores than the Falkland Islands, and wouldn't be on the list at all. It is by virtue of being recognized by the agreements/treaties that they are considered to be something that is fitting for the list. OzLawyer / talk  22:16, 6 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please read the differences again carefully. I made no new edit and you did have reverted what I have done to improve the list. That's nuisance if not disruptive. Falklands is not part of the U.K. But the Faroes and Greenland are part of Denmark. Are they recognized by any treaty? Why are they on the list of countries? What about Australian and U.S. external territories? Do they form part of Australia and the U.S.? - Privacy 17:03, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hainanese a click language?

[edit]

Hi! On the article click consonants you keep writing that Hainanese is a click language. This is of course not true, as the only languages that contain clicks in their phoneme inventory are the languages of the various "Khoisan" families plus some Bantu languages, all being spoken in Africa. Hainanese is a Chinese language and of course doesn't contain any click sounds. I wonder where you got this information from... got any sources? — N-true 18:21, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

All good sources I have found are written in Chinese. Here is an article on Xinhuanet.com, the online version of China's state-run news agency [2]. Another source from Academia Sinica from across the strait also discusses on this subject [3]. I originally found the information on Chinese Wikipedia, and have verified by searching on Google [4]. Regards. - Privacy 21:11, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Something so linguistically earth-shattering (since it makes absolutely no sense) would likely be discussed in depth in the English literature.  OzLawyer / talk  21:40, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you're confused with the possibility of clicks showing up in some trivial way. click consonant says "English and many other languages may use clicks in interjections, such as the dental "tsk-tsk" sound used to express disapproval, or the lateral click used with horses. In Ningdu Chinese, flapped nasal clicks are used in nursery rhymes."  OzLawyer / talk  21:56, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the quick reply, all of you. I guess either of this also applies for Hainanese. In many languages click sounds are sometimes used to mean something like "no" or "tsk tsk tsk" in English. I know a Hainanese speaker, I might ask her, maybe she can explain it... — N-true 23:27, 12 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Does English contain all human knowledge? - Privacy 17:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Of course English does not contain all human knowledge. However, the absolute absurdity of the statement that one Chinese language is a click language while none of its relatives are would make it a very hot topic if it were true. It would certainly have reached the international linguistics community, and would have been discussed in the leading international English-language journals.  OzLawyer / talk  19:38, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That's speculative. Things do not always happen as what they ought to be. - Privacy 19:40, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
If Santa Claus crashed his sleigh into Hainan this morning, I assure you it would be on the English news by tonight. It does work that way, especially when English is the language of international academics. Anyway, Hainanese is clearly not a click language--it goes against all linguistic principles. One dialect of a language that doesn't know clicks doesn't just magically gain them amongst all its non-click relatives.  OzLawyer / talk  19:43, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Your deduction sounds logical. But it provides no evidence to prove Hainanese is not click. Let us await for the good news from N-true. Regards. - Privacy 19:55, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Rather than reverting, discuss disputed changes on the talk page.

Being a commoner isnt king either. You are equally under the onus to show concensus to legitimise your reverting exercise.--Huaiwei 01:19, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The status quo before the edit wars back a few weeks was to include these entities. So I'd say that the consensus-building process should start with an attempt to get consensus to remove the territories, not to get them re-added.  OzLawyer / talk  01:27, 25 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
No. Wikipedia:Verifiability clearly states that "the burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material. You justify the inclusion of entries, and not their exclusion, irrespective of whatever version appears first.--Huaiwei 16:23, 16 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Singapore Airlines

[edit]

Do not label good faith edits as vandalism. There is on-going discussion on the article's talk page about the foundation date - discuss there rather than constantly reverting the article. Also take the time to read WP:3RR. Thanks/wangi 22:22, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's not a matter to be discussed, just as no discussion is required on whether Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia. There are different sources on the internet proving that Singapore Airlines Limited and Malaysian Airline System Berhad were two new companies (legal entities), established in 1972 and 1971 respectively. They were established by the respective governments to take over the assets and the routes of MSA. Both companies inherited the history of their predecessor, yet neither was renamed from, i.e. the same legal entity as, the predecessor. Both were newly formed. - Privacy 22:33, 21 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You have quoted no sources. Please WP:CITE your additions. However take this to the talk page first; it is an on-going discussion.

They were established by the respective governments to take over the assets and the routes of MSA. Both companies inherited the history of their predecessor, yet neither was renamed from, i.e. the same legal entity as, the predecessor. Both were newly formed".

Controversial edits

I see you are making a lot of edits without regard for consensus. In particular, you seem to be replacing all mentions of PRC with mainland China. We happen to be engaged in a discussion right now about what to do about this. I urge you to cease your edits and discuss; you are just asking for an edit war. --Ideogram 22:17, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note the continued page move wars between List of banks in the People's Republic of China and List of banks in mainland China. In his most recent edit, he attempted to prevent further page moves by editing the redirect itself [7]. I seek help from admins in this, for I don't think its in my or the site's interest for me to be involved in such disputes once again for an extended period.--Huaiwei 22:41, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I also note with alarm his recent creation of List of banks in Macao, creation of List of banks in Macau as a redirect, and introducing a redundant edit in the later [8] possibily to prevent a page move. This is against the fact that every article on Macau has now been named with the letter u. Privacy's edits continue to demonstrate similar viewpoints of a currently banned user.--Huaiwei 22:50, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know why you are complaining. You were the person who moved the list, and turned the whole thing illogical. You changed the title of the list, while you kept listing Hong Kong banks as foreign. Were you trying to imply that Hong Kong was not part of the People's Republic of China? That's obviously against the truth. If you were not trying to imply as such, how can Hong Kong banks (which are in People's Republic of China) be foreign banks in the People's Republic of China? Illogical, isn't it? They are foreign because they are foreign with respect to the Chinese mainland. - Privacy 23:10, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

China university stubs

[edit]

It looks to me that a lot of people agree to broaden the scope. Also, according to the closing summary, the result was to keep and to scope China inclusively, which means to include both Mainland China and the Republic of China. All that would need to be done is to tweak the wording of the template and category to reflect that. I hope that answered your question. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 14:47, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you seemed to agree with redefining the scope, as did User:Passer-by and User:Huaiwei. User:Instantnood and User:Michael G. Davis were the only ones who didn't agree. So, that makes it 5 (Caerwine, Alai, you, Passer-by, Huaiwei) to 2 (Instantnood, Michael G. Davis). Although, you could say that Huaiwei argued a couple points, so even if you take his vote out, it's still 4-2. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 19:13, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps... This is the one I thought you were referring to: Wikipedia:Stub_types_for_deletion#.7B.7BChina-university-stub.7D.7D_.2F_Cat:China_university_stubs ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 19:47, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Ah... I see what you are talking about now (a link might have been useful). And I see your additional note. The decision was NOT to update the scope. Upmerge means that the template {{Taiwan-university-stub}} will feed directly into the cat Category:China university stubs. This happens frequently when a template is useful, but doesn't have quite enough articles for its own category. The scopes did not change at all. I hope I've finally clarified things. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 19:56, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, upon further count I see 2 votes for upmerging to Asia as opposed to China. Passer-by and you said to Asia. Grutness and Alex43223 didn't really say either way (although Grutness mentioned that Asia might be easier). And, of course, 2 votes for China (Caerwine and Alai). So, that's split. I went with China because Caerwine had a very convincing argument, citing the naming conventions, while you and Passer-by didn't really have any evidence to back you up. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 20:18, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
But the discussion wasn't about China vs. Mainland China. It was about ROC/Taiwan. And clearly, Taiwan does not have enough stubs for its own category. Hence, it was upmerged. China includes both Mainland China and ROC, so it makes sense for Taiwan to be upmerged to China. As it stands, Category:China university stubs covers all of China, not just Mainland China. If you want to change that scope, then that is the discussion for a new SFD. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 20:32, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(outdent)I'm sorry that you think the discussions are producing conflicting outcomes. That's just what happens when different people participate in them. Also, the closing decision for that discussion is final. I can't go back and change it. If you want to dispute what happened, you'll have to bring up a new discussion. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 23:47, 22 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry I didn't close the discussion to your liking. Yes, it probably should have been no consensus, but I'd been getting tired of nothing being decided regarding China vs. PRC vs. Mainland China vs. ROC etc, so I went with the side that had a better argument, in my opinion. Let's just agree to disagree and move on, because there's nothing either of us can really do about it. ~ Amalas rawr =^_^= 12:40, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mainland China

[edit]

I fully understand why the term exists. What I fail to comprehend is why you keep trying to equate "China" and "Mainland China" by arguing that "China-" stub templates should feed into "Mainland China" stub categories. The name mismatch violates Wikipedia's naming conventions concerning China. I am neutral on whether "Mainland China" stub categories would be useful or not, I'm not neutral on the naming issue. Caerwine Caer’s whines 15:48, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I know that was decided when Category: Mainland China geography stubs was created. Template: China-geo-stub feeds into Category: Mainland China geography stubs (a precedence that Template: China-struct-stub followed). The rule "Mainland China" ≠ "China" is, as I understand, not as strict when applied to titles of templates. The reason is that template titles do not affect any actual content to readers. - Privacy 15:53, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It was wrongly decided in my opinion, largely because at the time {{China-geo-stub}} was split into Category:Mainland China geography stubs and Category:Republic of China (Taiwan) geography stubs there was a lack of awareness of the naming conventions in the stub sorting project. Certainly there was no mention of them in the discussion and when Instantnood proposed the split, even he suggested renaming the template to use Mainland China as well. While there might be some justification for using "China-" in the stub templates if it always implied "Mainland China" in the stub category, the simple fact is that it does not and for those stub categories that contain articles that are historical in content, it never can. With the consistency that the stub sorting project tries to keep in stub template names. having "China-" imply "Mainland China" in some contexts and "China" in others also implies that "Mainland China" = "China" which is incorrect and against policy. Caerwine Caer’s whines 16:40, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Here you are. [9] I don't care how templates are titled. But if you don't like Template:China-geo-stub feeding into Category: Mainland China geography stubs, do not feed the template elsewhere without any discussion. Propose at SFD to rename it as Template:MainlandChina-geo-stub.
We are dealing with geography, buildings and structures, universities, which all have specific locations and can be allocated neatly to one of the stub categories. They are not -hist-stub or -bio-stub and therefore got nothing to do with historical contexts. Companies, like buildings and universities, have their bases or origins from one of the 4 jurisdictions. - Privacy 17:04, 7 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
