{{Cleanup|October 2005}} too long for my PC, try breaking into sectionss
Hey Huaiwei. Guess what... while several pages point at Manila Mass Rail Transit System, there's an article at Manila Metro Rail Transit System. What is it actually called? :-) — Insta ntnood 15:13, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
Hi Huaiwei,
So sorry to be more irregular on Wikipedia for these two weeks...I was carried away with another project my friend and I have started with during this period of time. =D You can say I'm somewhat on semi- WikiVacation now, and will be for another 1-2 weeks due to upcoming big exams.
It is not unusual to have a longer-than-usual delay in IFD processing. It just means that there is a backlog that a sysop has yet to clear up. You can try tagging the images with {{nowcommons}} and see if it helps in speeding up the process. Don't worry though, it'll eventually be deleted for sure.
If you need anything or/and don't see me return by the 15th August, drop an email at my new temporary email -> studentssketchpad <at> hotmail .dot. com to remind me to come back. My old email is pretty much dead now, as my old website is largely shut down. (other than for the purpose of image hosting).
- Cheers & Best Regards, Mailer Diablo 17:23, 7 August 2005 (UTC) :)
Oh you've just come in on me at the perfect right time! :-D 'Cos I've found a perfect example ( Image:Hk map 18.png), which is in fact a map drawn by me and later moved by another wikiuser. You may just upload your image to the Commons, and ignore the image uploaded here. Then add a template like this: {{NowCommons|Image:XXX.xxx}} into the image page in Wikipedia, creating an interwiki link. Of course you may also delete the image in Wikipedia; that's up to you. -- Jerry Crimson Mann 17:37, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
I've bitched about our friend Instantnood not using edit summaries before. If you'd use more of them, life would be helpful and I'd be gracious! :) SchmuckyTheCat 08:52, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
I saw your name on WP:3RR. If this nomination was made in bad faith in order to harras you you may complain on WP:RfAr. Pavel Vozenilek 22:49, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
Hi Huaiwei. I have started a discussion of Temasek Holdings' share in SPH at SPH's talk page. Please join. Thanx. 165.21.154.115 02:36, 29 August 2005 (UTC)
[1] Thanks. Actually I was a bit cautious in using "Greater China", for the term is, as far as I know, rarely heard outside of economics and trade. I'm fine with it, anyways. :-) — Insta ntnood 06:52, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
It's hard to believe that presenting of facts could be sinister, underhand and unethical, and I suppose you have been doing something similar (tho much of your accusations may not be the real side of the facts). I would like to demand an explanation for your remarks [2] at user:Calton's talk page. Please illustrate if my remarks were sinister, and if any part of my remarks were not based on facts. Thank you. — Insta ntnood 07:34, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
If you guys want to have a conversation, please do so on your own Talk pages. Thank you. -- Calton | Talk 07:27, August 29, 2005 (UTC)
Just to remind you that you didn't state whether you support, object or stay neutral in the Sun Yat-sen FAC. In my opinion, according to the efforts you put into the article, your stand should be counted as a support vote... D e ryc k C. 10:44:12, 2005-09-05 (UTC)
Hello! This is about the recent interchange at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sin Ming Road Bus Terminal. Clearly public transport has a huge impact in the development of cities (see the impact of the trolley lines and their subsequent abandonment in favour of the car in development of the suburbs of Philedelphia). I guess my main complaint is that the article at Sin Ming Road Bus Terminal provides little context, and worse that that, the entry on Bishan New Town, the development/suburb that it serves, is shorter than the entry on the bus station itself.

Ought not Chinatown, Singapore be a lot more extensive? I'll try to help out when I can. I thought you might be interested. Or maybe I'm overestimating the importance of Chinatown in Singapore's history. -- Dpr 05:34, 14 September 2005 (UTC)
Hi Huaiwei,
That's a novel way to put your point across an VFD debate! =P Anyway, the VFD debate has just been closed, let me know if you need to leave it for a 'lag' period of time or not before I delete them.

you are doing a good job Huaiwei:)

There's no dichotomy. But if you do really want a yes-no answer, then I'll have to say yes, as in the strict sense country and sovereign state are not synonym. (Please reply at my talk page. Thanks.) — Insta ntnood 10:43, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
(Re: [4]) 國家 is not always a correct direct translation of the English word country, and sovereign state should better be translated as 主權國. Afterall please don't place an equivalence sign between 國家 and country, then argue Hong Kong is not a country by arguing Hong Kong is not a 國家. — Insta ntnood 11:42, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
Look at most categorisation. If something is in a subcat then it is not also listed in the higher cat. That's our normal policy. Why do you think everything to do with Singapore should be categorised multiple times? -- Necrothesp 11:51, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
Welcome you to write, yes write first then shoot and I will add-to-yours if it has an audience at Sgwiki. Have fun here too! goto it now? < [ [5]]> alien2 at Alien2 21:38, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
Did you know? has been updated. A fact from the article Caning in Singapore, which you recently created, has been featured in that section on the Main Page. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page. |
Thanks for linking up those references, it really helped clear things up! =D - Hamstersanonymous 07:47, 24 September 2005 (UTC)
THanks for ur notification and warm welcome. BUt how do I show my own pic at my own user page? Thx. And what is the part abt Sg notice board???

Please take a look at Homosexuality in Singapore, Groyn88 has been inserting crystal ball predictions of the future of Homosexuality in Singapore despite my efforts on the talkpage a long time ago. He was using the talkpage as an alternate soapbox for his unsubstantiated claims, and when I noticed and deleted them, he immediately copied them over to the main article. -- Mib orovsky 22:53, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
Groyn88 is not the problem! He’s migrating to other sites so don’t worry too much. In fact, the problem is to face it squarely, and dead on his vulnerability with so many places. His narcissistic habits and prowling instinct is moderate as this movement die out fast by scaring people than bring them to the fold. Do you wonder so many commit suicides? From the high rise buildings not just in Hong Kong but a pathetic lot drink too much and party too and die earlier! Fact is he is there to stay?

I'm not necessarily arguing that the information isn't useful, and I wasn't aware that it was difficult-to-acquire information.
If it's not burdened by copyright or any similar laws, though, why not post it on Wikisource? Wikipedia isn't the place to post raw source data, but Wikisource is. Just because something is useful information that you can't find elsewhere doesn't mean it belongs on Wikipedia specifically; Wikisource is there for raw source info and source texts, Wikitravel is there for travel info, and Yellowikis is for phone/contact directory info. Any of those would be more appropriate places for much of this information. - A Man In Black ( Talk | Contribs) 04:36, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your speedy help on
Lingnan culture. I was about to come back and fix it. Man, you're fast. While we're on the subject, that page could use some expansion, namely more information about Singaporean culture & architecture. --

Hi
User:Dpr goto Sgwiki to read up on Singaporean culture & architecture - we have more to offer than just

Thanks for putting them to speedy renaming. In fact I've already dropped a message to user:Who, whose bot was responsible for renaming those categories, and made that mistake. :-) (since I do not check others' replies on their talk pages regularly, please let me know at my talk page if you've replied here. Thanks.) — Insta ntnood 14:10, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
I flip-flop back and forth on how I spell it. I think I've even spelt it both ways in a single sentence before. Can you give me a reason to care about o vs u? SchmuckyTheCat 18:05, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for your message. I do have a good book on Singapore's architecture, which I will attempt to filter into some articles (citing source of course), when I have time. An amazing city, and amazing architecture. I think it seems that Lingnan architecture is highly influential in creating the shophouse, but when I do in fact contribute on these topics, I'll do more research. Good luck and kudos. Best, -- Dpr 01:00, 8 October 2005 (UTC)
