Hi, regarding your edits to this article, please note that Shenyang is in mainland China; hence, Simplified Chinese rather than Traditional Chinese is the official script there. You are welcome to provide both versions when appropriate, but please don't put just Traditional Chinese without also putting Simplified Chinese. -- ran (talk) 16:27, 8 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]


World in Conflict honours system

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article World in Conflict honours system, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of World in Conflict honours system. -- pb30<talk> 18:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of World in Conflict honours system

[edit]

I have nominated World in Conflict honours system, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/World in Conflict honours system. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. -- pb30<talk> 22:01, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]


I created a new page because the World in Conflict page itself has already been labelled as too long. I can see how this article can be interpreted as a game-guide, but that was not my intention. I wanted to add the details of the medals in the game as it is an important part of multiplayer mode. Perhaps it should be turned into a list.


You appear to have added an edit that suggests HMS Conqueror released life rafts to aid Belgrano survivors. Do you have a source for that please, I originally added a {fact} tag but another editor has now removed that statement. Justin talk 08:49, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think it was on a televised documentary which referred to some HM government transcripts or a press release. I'm afraid I cannot remember exactly, but I would not have added that fact if I was in doubt at the time.

Fleet Air Arm Museum

[edit]

Thanks for your edits to Fleet Air Arm Museum. I've removed the stub tag as it is definitely start class now. To make it even better we need to be referencing the information to the guide book/web site & other sources where possible.— Rod talk 14:52, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

I've replied at the HMS Kentish talkpage, but I'll pop it here as well -

  • Technically no, the prefix HMS only develops at the end of eighteenth century (about the 1780s or thereabouts) so no ship before this would be known as HMS... Even when it comes into use there were many variations, hence HMAV (His Majesty's Armed Vessel), HMB (His Majesty's Brig). Submarines during the early twentieth century could be referred to by the prefix HMSm. Similarly you could get HM troopship, or HM armed trawler. The editorial practice here is to backdate the prefix, so to treat the ship as how it would be prefixed as if it was entering service today. I'll add a qualifier to that though, as sometimes 'HMS' gets added to ships that weren't actually officially commissioned (there are huge numbers of small craft during the Second World War that were RN crewed and so on, but which were never actually formally commissioned, and so are not entitled to the HMS prefix - but other sources simply label them as such anyway). Something to keep an eye out for though.
  • As to the Royal Navy website, to be honest I'd be a bit wary of that. Sometimes their specific meaning isn't clear, such as when they used what is probably a commissioning date for one of the HMS Kents which I think confused you into thinking it was a launch date. Normally as long as you can check with other sources though, you can work out what's going on. Prison ships were indeed common, but that Kent isn't listed as one in Colledge, which is where I'd expect to find it, or Warlow, or Lavery (though those are somewhat longer shots) is a bit odd. So I'm just a little suspicious, but there are often gaps and discrepancies for information of ships of this era. I wouldn't be opposed to re-adding it to the article now I see where you got it from, but it made me wonder when I couldn't find it referenced elsewhere.

Happy to help with the other articles, especially HMS Westminster. I tend to buff up new articles with little tweaks and knick-knacks. Just putting the finishing touches to a pretty sound article overall, so nothing more than a few cosmetic tweaks and formats were needed. Keep up the good work! Give me a bell if you have any more questions. Benea (talk) 01:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the following points on Ben's talk-page:

Fairly obviously, NONE of the Commonwealth warships bore the prefix HMS at any time, since they had just (1649) executed His Majesty and abolished the monarchy, it would have been ridiculous to use the "His Majesty's Ship" description. In fact, the description "His Majesty's Ship" was not in use until after the Restoration in 1660, and the acronym "HMS" is much more modern - a 19th century introduction. The name Kentish was changed to Kent at the same time (i.e in June 1660), as were the names of many of the Commonwealth era warships which had been built with names that were unwelcome to the new monarchist regime. Remember also that "His Majesty's Ship" only referred to proper ships (i.e. vessels with a three-masted ship rig) and not to brigs, ketches, schooners or any other type of rig. We have a problem in our formatting in that Wikipedia habitually (but wrongly) uses "HMS" for all early British warships, and of course they didn't use that descriptor.

Burma

[edit]

Okay, I have created Wikipedia:Requests_for_mediation/Burma. I have added you along with added 18 other users (including myself) to the list of involved parties. The ones I have listed are ones who have commented recently, or who commented on the Mediation Cabal case (except if they solely made a neutral comment). If you disagree with me listing you there, remove yourself from it if you wish. If you feel someone else should be involved, add/ask them. I hope those I have added are alright though. I also hope this step is what finally ends this dispute! Deamon138 (talk) 00:29, 3 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Xilinhot image

[edit]

Hi, if you have windows vista on your computer, you can easily create such images yourself, with a proper vector graphics program (like Inkscape, I think).

However, there is a problem with your image: the "hot" part, i.e. the word on the right hand side, is wrong. The "o" in hot is a so-called "back" o, the kind of o that comes with u ("back" u) or a. this is usually transcribed as "o" in the most common western transcription (the PRC has developed a different transcription system, in case you wonder), and as "ө" in cyrillic Mongolian. What you wrote (probably copied from the article on Hohhot, Kökeqota in the common western transcription, Хөх хот in Mongolian) is a "front" o, the kind that comes with e, or ü ("front" u). This letter is usually transcribed as ö in the western transcription, or as ө in cyrillic Mongolian. As the "kh"-consonants are also divided into two classes, one that comes with back vowels, and one that comes with front vowels, the first letter of "hot" is also incorrect. It needs to look like the first two letters of "Hovd", i.e. like up to the "b". Cf. the image in the upper right corner of the city's official webpage.

Hopes this helps a bit. I am also far from literate in the traditional script. Usually I try to look up a writing on official websites and the like before I create it for Wikipedia. You can also try asking around at the Mongolia work group, there should be some people who can tell you whether what you wrote is orthographically correct or not. Regards, Yaan (talk) 11:55, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also cf. my first attempt at writing Hohhot in Mongol bichig (quite correct, except that the name is now written as one word): . Yaan (talk) 12:05, 19 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have now uploaded a new, correct, version, and nominated the old one for deletion. I also noticed that there was a problem with Image:Eriyen qota.svg, so maybe that is where your confusion came from? Regards, Yaan (talk) 14:46, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Just a quick note : I had revert your recent edit to above pages, as the Jersey, Guernsey and IOM pound are not currencies, but rather only local versions of the pound sterling. To quote the Jersey pound page : "Jersey is in currency union with the United Kingdom, and the Jersey pound is not a separate currency but is an issue of banknotes and coins by the States of Jersey denominated in pound sterling, in a similar way to the banknotes issued in Scotland and Northern Ireland (see Banknotes of the pound sterling)." 20:40, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Abass Ibrahim requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Epeefleche (talk) 01:30, 30 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've responded in the article's talk section. Note that the speedy-deletion tag was added before I added sources to the article, I didn't delete it once sources were added (assuming that an administrator should be the only one to delete such a tag). I've added another source to-day in case the others were deemed unreliable in some way.
I've stated my reasons for adding the article and I won't make any further comment; the decision is yours.

Location maps

[edit]

It has been requested by droll [chat] that {{Location map start}} should no longer be used, because it currently receives little support, and that maps should be created using {{Location map+}} instead. He has converted the other maps on the List of castles in England page to this template, and also implemented support for links to geohack, which I have added to the Berkshire map.

Thanks for your innovation on the List of castles in England page. I hope you are up for finishing the job! It does however remain to be seen whether a county such as Northumberland will work neatly on the page, and whether a full set of maps can be accommodated without the page becoming too large and slow to load. - Paravane (talk) 19:56, 20 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I didn't see that request. I did see the concern about Northumbria and that is the county I'll do next to see how busy it looks.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:18, 5 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
