Unsourced images

OrphanBot does not tag images as unsourced. It just removes images that are already tagged from articles. Images that OrphanBot removes are generally candidates for speedy deletion under grounds I4: images with unknown source or copyright status that have been on Misplaced Pages for over a week. --Carnildo 10:34, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

{{categoryredirect}}

Please be advised that {{categoryredirect}} requires a parameter in which the redirect is redirected to, otherwise the bot does not operate on that category. Furthermore, that feature has now been restricted to sysop use only. --AllyUnion (talk) 11:35, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

You used on Category:Transportation in Hong Kong. It was recently restricted due to abuse and complaints made by various people. One of them was due to a new user not understanding the Misplaced Pages enough, and another by an anonymous IP. --AllyUnion (talk) 11:49, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Why are you reinstating the images?

Apparently the images you are putting back on have no source info. They don't belong on WP if that is the case. Isn't it better to be trying to get the source data rather than fighting a bot? novacatz 12:48, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Non-soverign territories

What is this new phrase supposed to mean? SchmuckyTheCat 22:27, 1 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: Des Voeux Road

For me, it essentially just came down to flow. The previous version just felt very segmented, and didn't seem to flow very well. The history of the two roads are essentially the same, so I don't think there's any point splitting it (and they were already bunched together in the previous version anyway). I wouldn't mind it though if you split the transport section and put them back under each road. - Hinto 19:07, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Looks good; I just removed a duplicate sentence in the intro. - Hinto 23:59, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Comments on Alanmak

Alanmak is kinda phobic about the IPA phonetics symbols, and he's trying to set them abay. His very reason to avoid others adding back the symbols is do not make any revert "until a concensus is formed" or "I've warned you". I don't this makes sense: from alpha to omega he is the only player of the devil's advocate. What say you? -- Jerry Crimson Mann 05:54, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

The country names China and Taiwan

I've added my opinion on this issue at Misplaced Pages talk:Naming conventions (Chinese)#The country names China and Taiwan. Please feel free to provide your opinion and engage in discussions. Chanheigeorge 08:25, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Let it go man

Hi, I am not sure what is going on between you and Huaiwei, but can you just cool it down a bit. I just noticed you reverted something on Queensway that Huaiwei did. Now, I know the edit summary looks like it was crafted deliberately to annoy you -- but you don't have to respond. And bring the revert war to a new article (queensway) is just causing collateral damage -- please cool it down a tad. novacatz 15:57, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Nuclear war

Hi, please stop your nuclear war with User:Huaiwei. Only you can prevent ForestFires. Reverting will just hurt the project. Please don't do it. I've blocked both of you for 24 hours, to give you some time to cool down. --Phroziac . o º 16:40, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

You're welcome. Yes, we are, but only in clear cases of abuse. You and Huaiwei aren't one of those cases, I believe. (Since arbcom already ran a case for you). Mindspillage made a motion on WP:RFAr to extend the probation (for both of you) to all articles, and it looks like it will pass. (has 4 votes for and 0 against right now). I feel that it may be possible to use it to put out the forest fire. Who started this anyway? --Phroziac . o º 23:12, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Char siu

Hi there! I saw your request, but after deleting it I couldn't figure out what you wanted to do with the page to fix the edit history, so I'm going to leave it as is. --HappyCamper 19:41, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Char siu

I was doing CSD patrol when I came across Char siu. My suggestion is at Talk:Char_siu#Deletion_of_redirect. enochlau (talk) 23:38, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Disambig pages

Please note Misplaced Pages:Manual_of_Style_(disambiguation_pages)#Piping, which suggests that piping is not to be used. This is in reference to Queensway. enochlau (talk) 23:42, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Category:Ancient peoples of China

Since I know you have that whole issue with Taiwan/China/mainland... I figure to asked you first whether you would think it be correct to title it "Ancient Chinese" otherwise I'd incline to change it to "Ancient people of China". --AllyUnion (talk) 05:35, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

The usage of "peoples" is unobjectionable. Plus it's a subcategory of Category:Ancient peoples, so I'd leave it as is for uniformity. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 05:53, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

See also other HK series

Some nice ideas have brewed in the Chinese wikipedia . Could you help upgrade the templates? -- Jerry Crimson Mann 12:52, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

"Western"

by "Western" we mean influenced by Europe and its colonial descendants. we do not mean describing a cardinal direction opposite of "east". as such, it should be capitalized--Jiang 23:57, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

Article Ban: Category:Chinese newspapers

Instant, per your probation and constant warring with Huaiwei on this category I have elected to ban both of you from editing it further. The notice is posted on AN/I. Please take a moment and consider your actions on these articles and interaction with Huaiwei, it does not reflect well on either of you. --Wgfinley 09:12, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

ROC local elections, 2005

This article lists the Chinese name of the election as "94年中華民國地方公職人員選舉". Is this wrong? Because on the Chinese Misplaced Pages, the article is called "2005年中華民國地方公職人員選舉". — J3ff 13:48, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Notice of new bans

For continuing sterile edit wars, despite all of the warnings and previous bans, I am banning both you and Huaiwei from Char siu, List of railways in China, and Guangshen Railway for the duration of your probation. This is going to be logged and discussed at WP:AN/I. Dmcdevit·t 00:22, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Talk:Queensway

Could you please comment on Talk:Queensway about the reasons for and against each wording? I want to resolve the edit war. If the edit war continues, I will consider blocking you and Huaiwei from this page. Thanks. enochlau (talk) 00:28, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Additional Ban

I have now also added Queensway to the list. Instant, I know that you can be a valuable contributor to Misplaced Pages, replying in kind and continuing this edit warring is not helping anything. I'm begging you, please stop, you and Huaiwei need to step back for a bit and then try to work out an understanding, I will be happy to help with that any way I can. --Wgfinley 02:21, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Egg Tart != Dim Sum

In North America, Egg Tarts ARE standard fare in dim-sum restaurant. I have seen them in dim-sum restaurants in NYC, LA, San Francisco, Toronto, Vancouver, Philadelphia, Boston, etc. If that is the case, I don't know why they wouldn't be considered dim sum, especially since more expensive dim-sum establishments are always inventing new dishes. Dyl 03:02, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

HK Wikipedian meeting

As you know, Hong Kong Wikipedian on Chinese Misplaced Pages is proposing the next meeting. Hope you would come. :P--Simon Shek 12:06, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, I certainly hope you can join -- then I can clip you over the ears for getting yourself blocked (LOL just kidding). Hope you can make it -- disappointed if you can't. Take care. novacatz 01:38, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

24 Hour block for Char siu edit

I appreciate the honesty but I'm afraid I do have to block you for 24 hours. Please be mindful of your bans and make a concerted effort to not earn anymore! Stay away from Huaiwei wherever possible, if he comes and edits on something you've been working on it will be noted, several admins are watching this now, do not respond in kind if he does. --Wgfinley 19:54, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

How do I...

Recently I am editing the page Cheung Wang Estate and was puzzled by the making of the link "Princess Margaret Hospital". There are four hospitals with the the same name in the world and how should I make it a link to Princess Margaret Hospital (Hong Kong) but at the same time still appearing as "Princess Margaret Hospital"?

List of languages

Hi Instantnood,

Just to notify you that both you and Alanmak have reached your 3RR limit for this article.

The page history is starting to look like a script from the Three Stooges. I'm not saying that you are the one to blame, but I would appreciate it if you would refrain from bringing your ongoing fight to this article.

kwami 19:13, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Classified information

Could you and alanmak join the discussion on the talk page for this article?--agr 23:34, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

List of cities in China

Unfortunately the edit warring has now continued on this article as well so I have instituted another article ban for you on this page. I was hoping that after the first few the point would be made but it appears that is not the case. I'm growing tired of them and you must be growing tired of the growing list of articles you can't edit. Please, cease the warring with Huaiwei before this results in another Arbitration case seeking more serious sanctions. --Wgfinley 10:03, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Supreme court

I have added this to the ban list for both of you, it looks like it was going on before the above and I wasn't aware of it. That one was far too much back and forth with the two of you though, it's pretty much a no-brainer for a ban on that article for both of you. --Wgfinley 04:07, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

You are now banned from List of museums --TimPope 17:46, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Taiwan Mandarin

Hey Instantnood - thanks for your input on this article. I think I have answered your concerns on the article's talk page, please check it out and see what you think. I'd like to hear your opinions on the matter. Thanks! Taiwantaffy 05:30, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages: Superpower

Would you like to come to join us to edit the Subject "Superpower", the China section? I found that some people editing that page are very bias against China. I just want to bring more people with more knowledge of China to edit that page.Here is the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/Superpower Thanks

List of airlines

I've banned you both from this article, it is quite obvious it is in order, you both continue to revert each other with comments being made in edit summaries instead of where they belong -- on the talk page. You haven't posted anything here in over two weeks yet continue to revert each other, hence, I'm banning you both from editing this one. --Wgfinley 05:24, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Are you going tommorow?

novacatz 06:42, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Re:Unidentified image

Thanks. But I'll probably reupload it when I get a chance so it's got a proper filename :) enochlau (talk) 23:04, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Arbcom again

I've asked for something more to be done about your continual crusade.SchmuckyTheCat 05:49, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Clock tower

I've banned you from this article as well. --Wgfinley 18:33, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

More Category Bans

I've now also banned you from Category:Transport in Hong Kong, Category:Transportation in Macau, and Category:Transportation in China. I'm really disappointed with you on these Instant -- Schmucky is 100% correct, this appears to be nothing more than to stir up an old debate. It's particularly disappointing because he's been leaving you alone and this could also be perceived as goading him into a fight. I cannot stress more that you need to re-think your actions in regard to these articles. This kind of behavior isn't helping anything. --Wgfinley 18:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Lists of country-related topics

Is now also on your ban list. --Wgfinley 20:20, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

Singapore Science Centre

You have been banned from this page, the revert warring is blatant and obvious. --Wgfinley 20:18, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

7 Day Block

Effective immediately I have blocked you for 7 days for continued defiance of the ArbCom ruling and continuing to edit war on various articles. Your actions to intentionally and clearly edit war after numerous warnings, pleas, and blocks of 12 articles in the past 12 days are a continued disruption to Misplaced Pages. I suggest you take the 7 days to reflect on your actions and consider more appropriate forms of editing that are not prone to the incessant edit warring. --Wgfinley 20:30, 24 January 2006 (UTC)
