Thanks for uploading Image:Purple Storm.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion.

Hi Huaiwei. Just wanted to be courteous and let you know I reverted your deletions of the CBD images of Singapore. I agree that they are not perfect, but I think they are defininately relevant to the pages, particularly the 2010 YOG page. When we are closer to the Games, or if a enthusiastic Singapore Wikipedian can get better pics, we can certainly update them.
Incidently, I noticed you have been having some conflict over the entry of Singapore in the Olympics Template. I made a specific template for the YOG a few days ago which is on all the relevant pages. Naturally, it is the only city listed right now. I hope that works as a compromise for you.

However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies for fair use. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

Please consider taking another look at this case.

Hi, please consider the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Olympics/Archive 3#IOC designations, where we had consensus on the article names. The idea was to use the common name for nations where possible, especially where they match the main Wikipedia article name for the nation. Therefore, we have Libya at the 2004 Summer Olympics and not Libyan Arab Jamahiriya at the 2004 Summer Olympics and so on. In Hong Kong's case we agreed that simply using Hong Kong at the Olympics etc. was suitable, especially considering the main article for the territory is at Hong Kong. For now, I am going to re-rename the top-level article back to Hong Kong at the Olympics but keep the 2000-2006 article names unchanged, pending further discussion. Also, I do think your rename of Sports Federation and Olympic Committee of Hong Kong, China is entirely appropriate, so there is no need for discussion about that.

I also noticed your change to {{

to allow for variable country names, just as variable flag images are used. You did not make any changes to any of the other flagIOC
templates — was that an oversight, or intentional? They should really all behave the same way. Also note that I had to undo part of your changes to flagIOC
. You completely removed the name
parameter, yet it is used quite a bit. Again, was that intentional, or an oversight? Thanks —

Hi, I noticed your changes to GHA and GUY — thanks for that! I think they are the only two historic nations that need that treatment. The other name changes (e.g. Ceylon→Sri Lanka, British Honduras→Belize, etc.) were also accompanied by code changes. Therefore, we already use CEY or SRI, or HBR or BIZ, depending on the year. Gold Coast and British Guiana pre-dated code usage, so that approach couldn't be used there.

Huaiwei, your constant reverting of the verifiable parent company of Singapore Airlines being Temasek is unacceptable. I have addressed your revisions for the umpteenth time on the talk page, and for the umpteenth time you have chosen not to respond and have continued to ignore it, this is not acceptable, for none of us are about any of the WP policies. We use verifiable, reliable sources here on WP, we are not the unofficial PR organ for Singapore Airlines or Temasek or any other entity, whether they be Singaporean or non-Singaporean. I suggest that you check subsidiary and parent company, and learn what these terms mean, for when Singapore Airlines states in its annual report it is a subsidiary of Temasek, this can mean only one thing.....that Temasek is the parent company. Further reverting of this verifiable information will be reported and you can be sure that I will ensure that you will not be allowed to continue to operate like that. -- Россавиа Диалог 08:54, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:AD2000screenshot1.png. I notice the image 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. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
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 non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You know, if you are not interested in seeking out more opinions from other editors, and wish to go ahead to make the changes despite no consensus from anywhere, and reason using biased/WP policies/bordering on WP:OWN etc.etc., and I quote your friend above: "you are seriously putting off a lot of people here", then go ahead and do what you deem fit; because you are seriously putting me off. (Before you go accuse me of doing the same when I made the initial changes, please assume good faith that I had genuinely expected that to be the correct name; thus the edits. As such you are free to revert them if you wish so; even if either name has yet to be proven to be the official one.) Any responses to this or in fact anywhere else, where I feel it redundant / useless to give you any form of reply, I will not be doing so.

(argument diverted from NcSchu's talk page) Yes, but what information is relevant? As people in the VS and VX AfDs have said, Wikipedia is not an aviation enthausiast site. You're indiscriminately adding information that lacks relevance or notability. It is not essential information. The amount of people that actually want to know information regarding airplane registrations and the history of those birds know what websites to go to, if people's posts on airliners.net is any indication. I don't see anything in the text part of that page that can't be presented in the main SQ page (which is need of serious clean-up, as there is too much information that doesn't need to be presented in that page, as well). If separate fleet pages and massive registration lists of current and previous aircraft was the norm, your "absolutely normal and essential argument" would work. But it isn't. And unless you can provide a reason why SQ is so special aside from your obsession with anything Singapore-related (something that your user page indicates), then you need to either back off or make similar pages for every airline in existence. Just as I have to either prove why VS and VX should have their fleet pages AfDs or AfD all such pages as other users have informed me, you need to do the same. Furthermore, until YOU start acting according to Wikipedia's policies, you are in no position to tell me what I'm not acting according to procedure (case in point: SQ's parent company).

As you have been involved in editing this article in direct relation to the various disputed issues and/or have been active in discussion regarding these issues on WP:AIRLINES, previous dispute resolution attempts, or on the talk pages, I have added you to the involved parties list, so if you agree to participate, please sign your acceptance on that page. Thanks -- Россавиа Диалог 00:05, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
I provided the newspaper link- it satisfies to Wikiepdeia guidelines well enough to be enough sufficient for many others' similar references for their Wikiepdia articles. There are a huge quanta of documentation supporting these facts- including Indonesian arrest warrants and extradition applications. Perhaps we should co-author a new topic on widespread Singaporean banking and financial irregularities- there are vast numbers of theses devoted to these topics? Although, I understand if you are Singaporean based- it's risky to criticise the (well-documented) incumbent corrupt Lee Kwan Yew regime- perhaps we can find a non-Singaporean based author to co-write?

I think you misunderstood me- actually, I was inviting you to co-author a new article- interested? Starstylers ( talk) 12:32, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
Hi Huaiwei, I'd like to refer you to this Wikipedia_talk:SGpedians'_notice_board#Proposal_to_put_Sompah_MRT_Station_up_for_AfD. The details are in the link, but in summary, a user has created a page for Sompah MRT Station, which obviously doesn't exist and is spelled wrongly anyway. Although props to him for designing the page so that it looks like the rest of the MRT pages. I don't know the AfD procedure - I've tried putting it up for speedy, but it was overturned by another user, citing that my reason does not fit the criteria. I would gladly appreciate it if you could help out, or at least refer it to someone who knows how to handle these kind of things. 리지강.wa.au talk 18:53, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for starting to fill in the Category:Singapore at the Olympics articles! We need this kind of help for many nations. The best sources for this information are the official reports from each Games, downloadable here. You might also want to read "Singapore and Olympism" here, although that article is from 1980.
Note that in 1948, Lloyd Valberg was the lone competitor for Singapore (men's high jump) per the official report. Your source from the SNOC website shows four other names, but those are listed in the official report as all competing for China (ROC). Obviously, Singapore did not have complete teams in football and basketball.
So perhaps they were all Singapore-born but living in Taiwan? In any case, I don't think they should be listed on Singapore at the 1948 Summer Olympics in the same sense as Valberg. They should be removed, or perhaps listed under another section like "Singapore-born athletes competing for the Republic of China", or something. Thanks — Andrwsc ( talk · contribs) 18:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
I offer my apologies for being immature and abrasive. I have no ill will against you or any fellow complainant- I fully support your freedom of speech, opinion and association- and though many others within SE Asia do not enjoy such intellectual liberties- I along with Voltaire feel it means allowing defending others' right to shout in your face what you find most offensive. I hope we may put this matter behind us, agree to disagree as civil gents and move on. Buddha was right- life is too short for bitching.
In all honesty- I was being sincere in inviting you and others to collaborate if in future I am involved in a future article concerning Indonesian-based white-collar fraud and money laundering in Singapore- it was not a backhanded disguised insult- I would value yours and others input and expert opinion (though I personally may vehemently disagree) to together create an indisputably neutral POV article.

The discussion is indeed frustrating when one side of the debate is full of fools who have no grasp of basic economics and business theory and take it upon themselves to divert the topic by discussing irrelevance and by attempting to discredit the other parties by various measures because they are unable to discredit the economics. —Preceding unsigned comment added by RomanceOfTravel ( talk • contribs) 18:00, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:True Files Lee Kim Lai 1.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia 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 non-free media 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. Jpatokal ( talk) 04:14, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on 1989 in Singapore requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you.

Huaiwei, I have a very bad news for you... this message is to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Your track record of fifteen 3RR incident and long list of impolite outburst (aka thinking out loud) will work against you in this case this time. My suggestion is for you to control yourself, failing which you might face the possibility of leaving Wikipedia on a long long vacation to cool down and think things through before you are allowed to return again to edit and contribute. Thus far, it has been a privilege to work with you on a few articles so I hope you would take heed of my advice and focus on the content instead of the contributors. Cheers! ...

Nice to see you again Huawei. In regards to the lead of the SIA article, I linked to Wikipedia:LEAD#Relative_emphasis for a reason. Instead of picking out a few words, read the entire thing, and put it into perspective.
In general, the relative emphasis given to material in the lead should reflect its relative importance to the subject according to reliable sources. Significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article, although specific facts, such as birthdates, titles, or scientific designations will often appear in the lead only, as may certain quotations. This should not be taken to exclude information from the lead, but to include it in both the lead and body: in a well-constructed article, the relative emphasis given to information in the lead will be reflected in the rest of the text. Do not tease the reader by hinting at startling facts without describing them. Avoid lengthy paragraphs and over-specific descriptions, especially if they are not central to the article as a whole.
The statement that SIA is accredited with IOSA is not covered nor mentioned in the article at all, and its importance in the overall article is not reflected. It's something like one would see on the bottom of press release. Let me show you. This information is placed at the bottom of every Aeroflot press release:
Aeroflot – is one of the oldest air companies and one of the most famous commercial brands in the world. Company was founded in 1923, its headquarters in Moscow, in international airport of Sherem’etevo. In 2006 Aeroflot became the first Russian air company to be part of a global alliance SkyTeam. United destination network of the alliance consists of 728 destinations in 149 countries, which in turn offers to the passengers of Aeroflot limitless variety of choice. Clients of Aeroflot are also eligible for bonus programs of all partners of the alliance. Information of the advantages of participation in the alliance SkyTeam – on the website www.skyteam.com.
Aeroflot is the only certified operator of international aviation standards of operational safety IATA (International Air Travel Association) Operational Safety Audit in Russia.
On the website www.aeroflot.ru it is possible to purchase tickets for Aeroflot flights with the use of on-line payments, technology of electronic ticket, and to find out more about the air company.
You suggested that I take it to the talk page. Why on earth would I waste my time doing that? When I introduced only to have you remove, as another editor put it, one of the best sourced facts on Wikipedia. Why would this be any different?
But then, as now, I have an ever relevant policy for you to look at. And we'll throw in a couple of other guidelines, This and This, to boot, and hopefully you will take them in.
I'm off to things which are more stimulating than banging my head against a brick wall. Have a nice day. -- Russavia Dialogue Stalk me 16:49, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
You reverted the removal of a dispute tag from the Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Chinese) page, but did not provide any specifics as to what is still disputed.
