Hello!

Could you check my request on the talk page for Edison Chen? I noticed that you've done a few edits to it, as well as contributing to a number of articles about Cantonese people - so I'd assume you probably know more about Chen than I do. Thanks! Th 2005 (talk) 23:08, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

- yeah, Cantonese people —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soccer174 (talk • contribs) 15:07, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Hello!

I wish to add an article on categorized searching of websites, I have designed a website gajeebo.com which is based on collabrative approach and is to assist people search for websites in different categories. The article which I wrote didnt complie G11 of Misplaced Pages guidelines. I am really not sure how to write an article on gajeebo.com so that it is writen in fundamental language. Please suggest me something so that I can enlighten Internet Surfers about uniqueness and how they will be benefitted from Gajeebo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Harshagarwal5 (talk • contribs) 07:25, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

The image you provided the link to showed that you do not hold the copyright to the image. By taking a photograph of copyrighted material, you are just creating a derivative of the copyrighted material. The copyright still belongs to the original creator. -Nv8200p talk 14:43, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the barnstar! much appreciated, cheers!--Shaggy9872004 (talk) 05:47, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

May 2008

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Joey Yung. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page 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. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. PeterSymonds (talk) 12:27, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

That's alright, I thought you would know. But I declined the protection because pages aren't protected when there's a war between two editors. Fair is fair; I issued a warning to Halahala so it would be unfair not to warn you. I hope the dispute is sorted out; if you need me to informally mediate just drop me a line. Best, PeterSymonds (talk) 12:32, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Fairuse error?

In the file soundfile you uploaded, the fairuse rationale is not currently given to Hins. Please check other sound files too. Interestingly I would have picked that same track lol. Benjwong (talk) 19:10, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

When CSD G10 (article created solely to disparage subject) is used, it is appropriate and expected to delete the content. Apparently, the original creator of that article changed the content to something less disparaging before I saved my version, which consisted only of the tag and not of the removed, highly disparaging content. If you still think it is inappropriate to remove defamatory content which could expose Misplaced Pages to liability, you will have to escalate this matter. 206.116.63.240 (talk) 04:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

Template

Yeah, I just noticed the two ~~ missing at the end. I'm trying to fix it so that it appears as ~ on the template itself, but as part of the signature when using it. Haha. As for my userpage, I came across Misplaced Pages:User Page Design Center. Lots of stuff there to help design your page. If you have any questions with that, just ask me! =) -- Skyezx 07:35, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

I think I figured out what's wrong. The template needs to be substituted for it to work. So instead of just {{WPCLE invite}}, it needs to be {{subst:WPCLE invite}}. I changed the instructions on the WP's participants page to reflect this. Lol... so silly of me to forget this. -- Skyezx 07:54, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Userpage

I edited your /menu page. Is that what you wanted? I just added another row to the table to move the quote to the top. It's looking good! -- Skyezx 21:02, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

Image:Starlight.jpg

Yes, you're right that this image was added on top of an existing image on a different subject - I don't know if it's still possible to recover the original. Perhaps the changes could be reverted, but then the current image would be lost. I can't really help on this one, as I'm not an expert on Misplaced Pages image policy. Thanks for fixing the fair use rationale, though! Terraxos (talk) 15:27, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

Slew

I don't know if you have been following the minor contretemps at Eigenvector slew after you (quite understandably) put a speedy tag on it. Anyway, you were mentioned (indirectly) in dispatches at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Mathematics#Eigenvector slew and the experts are still discussing its notability or otherwise. Cheers.

Cirlce gets the square

That's a reference to the rules on Hollywood Squares, basically a game show version of tic-tac-toe with 9 celebs sitting in a ginormous tic-tac-toe board. If player "x" gets the question wrong, then the square goes to player "o", who is referred to as the circle. Hence, "circle gets the square".

Dispute

He's certainly not the most polite person in the world... but heh, I personally would just let it go. I don't like drama. lol. Let's just keep our cool and remain civil. If the discussion escalates then we should do something about it. But I'm sleepy, and that's just my opinion. =p – Skyezx _{// msg} 09:33, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the note

Cool......

It does put everything in context. What probably happened was that he started his crusade to rid the world of everything Chinese and it spilled over into the Taiwanese-American and Chinese-American articles. I've found it basically impossible to reason or compromise with him, and he seems extremely misinformed about Taiwanese politics, but now that I see that he has a holy crusade against everything Chinese, it makes me a bit more relaxed, since I see it's not just him versus me. There is one of him, and 1.4 billion of us, and eventually he is going to exhaust himself single-handedly fighting all of us.

So chill....

Clarification for the above comment because I'm sure CG will pick on the verse "1.4billion of us". The word "chinese" used in the context is not restricted to "people living in china". "Chinese" is a GENERALISATION of all the ethnic races living within the traditional borders of China. This includes the Han, Wu, Manchu, etc etc. So a person living in Hong Kong is a Hong Kongese and a Chinese and a Han and an Asian at the same time. It's like saying an ethnic aboriginal Australian is called an Aboriginal, Australian, and Oceanian at the same time. Dengero (talk) 01:43, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

Linda Chung

Hiya. Just wondering if you're sure that Linda's album is really called "Linda Chung Debut Album"? From what I've heard, it's "Dinner For One, World For Two <一人晚餐, 二人世界>". – Skyezx _{// msg} 02:45, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Strange

My attempt to talk some sense to Dengero has been removed for no reason! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soccer174 (talk • contribs) 14:42, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

I want to engage Dengero. I can't sleep without thinking of him. I am furious! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soccer174 (talk • contribs) 15:13, 23 October 2008 (UTC) 我在英文维基开了一个分类叫＂香港客家人（物）"。他却建议删除，愿因是不值一提 (trivial) 。我火了，真想打他！
