blogger cases are unrelated to the internet regulation

edit

The section on "Influence of the Internet" is about the regulation of political content on the Internet with the MDA directive, which is quite vague, at least before the clarification was made in the Parliament. How the MDA regulation will be enforced is still an open question because there are quite a number of bloggers who apparently are already violating the regulation (by not registering their political website with MDA). On the other hand, the convictions of bloggers posting racist comments are unrelated because: (1) they were charged not under the MDA regulation but under the sedition act which has been around for a long time, (2) they were charged for posting racist remarks, not for political content, (3) sedition act covers all types of media, but the MDA regulation specifically deals with the Internet content. Therefore, the blogger cases are quite unrelated and have no effect on this election. Probably, a more related case (as a precedent) is one that led to the closing down of the (original) SINTERCOM website, but that was quite a while ago and I don't remember the details. --Vsion 05:37, 23 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

The New Democrat

edit

Is the concerned article of The New Democrat available online? --Vsion 06:23, 23 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

I believe there is, you may like to check the website for the article. --Terence Ong 14:36, 23 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
Which website? I can't find it. I feel there is a need to verify what exactly was written in the article. For example, does the article explicitly state that the Lees are "dishonest"? It is not entirely clear to me. --Vsion 21:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
The party's official website. Well, I'm not sure what the content is as I didn't read any of the articles on the website. --Terence Ong 13:26, 25 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
I can't find the alleged defamatory article. Anyway, if this goes to trial, the article will be scrutinised in detail. After reading online newspaper reports about the case, I don't think the SDP's article actually use the word "dishonest", but I'm not sure. I'm hoping to get some exact quotes from the article rather than using descriptions based solely on the demand letter. --Vsion 04:11, 26 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Page size

edit

The page size is now 62KB long, I suggest we summarise some sections and move the pre-election events to a sub-page as well as the nominations, list of MPs and election results. See United Kingdom general election, 2005 to see how to summarise it. Any suggestions? Who can create a table for every constituency articles as I'm going to create articles for every constituency? P.S. I'm bad at creating tables. --Terence Ong 03:18, 29 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Please do not move the election result, it is the most important item in the article. --Vsion 18:07, 27 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
This article is already following some aspects of United Kingdom general election, 2005, if you have realised. But we shouldn't follow it to the letter because the situations are very different, instead try to copy the good points and improve and adapt. Outdated information can be removed, otherwise major summarization should be done after May 6, as the show is not over yet. This was the case for the UK election article, major overhaul was performed only after the election.--Vsion 18:47, 28 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Rally crowd size?

edit

Does anyone know what were the crowd size at the rallies? There is a photo posted at yawningbread site [1] taken at WP's rally at Ubi on 28 April. The crowd was pretty large. --Vsion 21:45, 28 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

I don't think we can tell the crowd size. Its very hard to count statistics of such things. Well, this idea is not very good. --Terence Ong 03:09, 29 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
I'm not asking you to count :D. There are folks who do these things, the professionals such as the police who have to estimate the crowd size for safety and control; and perhaps the press. But not sure if they want to share the information. For the Aljunied's rally, one blogger estimated it at 2,000, another blogger put it at 10,000. If there are other estimates, please post it here for comparison. --Vsion 04:03, 29 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
The Star estimated it at around 10,000 people, though the pic was on the front page, I don't think it's available online. --Andylkl [ talk! | c ] 09:42, 6 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Regarding the challenge, Lee's quote is to dare Gomez to sue him or Wong Kan Seng. Lee was a lawyer and is careful with wordings. For some reasons, the CNA report [2] changes it to "WP" suing the "Government". Did CNA mislead or are there other references? For accuracy, I reworded the article to reflect the exact quote.--Vsion 21:53, 5 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

"Walkovers"?

edit

I never heard of the term "walkover" used for elections (I live in Canada). Usually a one-person contest is "acclaimed" or "uncontested" here. Is this a term commonly used in the SG media?). Kelvinc 16:20, 7 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yes it is. It has the same meaning as "uncontested". Constituencies which are not challenged are dubbed as walkovers. --202.156.6.54 17:52, 7 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

How convenient, I just created walkover. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 21:48, 7 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

todo, etc.

edit

This might actually have a chance of being our next featured article (seeing the huge amount of refs) if we organise it enough (and correlate it back to the proper topics). First thing we need to trim this down, but where should we start subpages? Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 16:27, 7 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Use Alternative Parties instead of Opposition Parties

edit

The life of an alternative party is not determined by the ruling party as they called them opposition parties. Alternative Parties are determined by the people to become the people's voices in the future. Fernvale 05:56, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

There is no reason to change terms, I think. The concept is well grounded in a parliamentary system, ie. the UK. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 09:57, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

"Opposition party/ies" is a perfectly normal phrase in English, usually being defined as the parties that are not in government. In more complicated situations (e.g. Sweden, where there is a social democratic minority government supported officially by two other parties on many issues) parties that usually support the government depite not being part of it are not called "opposition parties". The situation in Singapore is simple: the PAP is the governing party and the other parties are in opposition. In British English at least, calling a party an "opposition" party is not negatively biased, just a statement of their relationship to the government. Tamino 10:01, 9 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

NCMP section

edit

I like the NCMP section which contains sentences in Singlish, e.g. "The Workers' Party got 44% of the vots for the Group Representation Constituency" and "Twelve of the fifteen members of the CEC voted for Sylvia Lim whether to be the NCMP or not." . However this is an English wiki, so someone might want to edit out the Singlish sentences to proper English so that it makes sense to non-Singlish speakers. --Novelty 04:38, 10 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I'm the author of that section. Ok, that type of writing style adapts to me for a long time due to the culture and Singlish is absorbed into some of our proper English grammar. Bear my Singlish influenced English. Sorry about that. I will fix it now. --Terence Ong 05:19, 10 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
You may like to check it now, I believe its now in proper English unless I'm unaware of it. Feel free to edit it, its a Wiki. --Terence Ong 05:23, 10 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
The first 3 sentences still look a bit funny to me, but not in the grammar, just the arrangement of the sentences. I speak Singlish as well, so there isn't too much problem for me to understand it, but this wiki isn't just for people who speak Singlish, so we have to try to make sure that the sentences would make sense to a non-Singaporean. Also, I wonder if it might be beneficial to split up this article to a number of pages... --Novelty 17:24, 1 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Can someone explain the results to me

edit

Sorry, this page is way too complicated for me ... can someone please summarize how the results come about. Why does the ruling party get 82 out of 84 seats and how do all these walkovers happen? gbrandt 21:33, 10 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

It will be done sooner or later. Regarding your question on why the PAP gets 82 out of 84 seats is that 37 seats (for this year's elections) are uncontested. Walkovers happen when there is no opposition party filling candidates for that constituency. In recent years, walkovers only happen in Group Representation Constituencies as there are only nine single seats left. The opposition always contest all the SMCs and a number of GRCs in recent elections. 82 out of 84 seats? Its just like any other elections. The ruling party returns unopposed in selected constituencies on Nomination Day with the remaining being contested. --Terence Ong 11:16, 11 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

sub-pages

edit

When moving large content to sub-pages, please give notice for a few days, to seek any comments or suggestion. IMO, those content are the "juice" of the election and should be mentioned here, at least in summary form. I reverted the move because (1) it was not discussed (2) the summaries were not provided in the main page, (3) the references in the sub-pages are defunct. --Vsion 04:29, 4 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

I have tidied the main article, and remove some outdated content. I'm not sure what to do with the newly created sub-pages, many reference-links in the sub-pages are defunct as a result of the split, and it will take time to amend those links. Also, the summaries are not prepared. These issues should be addressed when performing a split. Nonetheless, I prefer to have a single article, and to gradually remove insignficant content as time passes. --Vsion 05:41, 4 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
IMO, its a bad idea to remove insignificant content from here. If we want to make this a featured article, then we need to create sub-pages and do a major summary. We shouldn't just remove information by summarising it. Keep the sub-pages and leave the information as it is, let it expand there, the main article will summarise the events into three to four paragraphs. By creating sub-pages, we can cover every corner of the election and giving detailed information on it. These sub-pages will have their references fixed, and a summary will be done shortly. I will be working on it shortly. Once we are done with that, we can copyedit, expand, correct errors and send it for peer review, followed by a FAC. This article has the potential of becoming a featured article, provided everyone can collaborate and make this article meet FA standards. --Terence Ong 15:45, 4 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Please go ahead as you plan; but please keep those content in this main article until the summaries are ready, so that you can replace the content rather than remove them. --Vsion 06:48, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
I merged the sub-pages, and amend the links, which had taken quite a bit of time. I still don't see the benefit of having the sub-pages, especially since this main article is not summarized. Now there are large sections of duplicated content, and risk inconsistent updates. --Vsion 14:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

keep the rally list

edit

Well, IMO, the information regarding the amount of rallies and their details is useful historically and we should keep it in the article, but perhaps move it to a subpage. Elle vécut heureuse à jamais (Be eudaimonic!) 16:20, 4 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Image concerns

edit

I noticed that there's an effort underway to get this to GA status. Good job everyone, and I certainly hope this article makes it - but I've noticed that there are some fair use image problems. Many of the fair use images in the article do not contain rationales for their fair use status, as required by policy. This can be a bit of a stumbling block, especially if you want to try for FA later on. Aside from that, I've noticed a few problems with the writing style and tone, but nothing too serious. I think this article stands a good shot at GA once the copyright issues are fixed. Johnleemk | Talk 20:46, 27 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yes, there is a problem with some of the fair-use images. There's a recent change in fair use policy recently, so I think there are some problems with image shere. The images needs to go on IFD or I can email the owner(s) of the image, whether it can be used in Wikipedia. However, I doubt I will get approval from them. We may just have to stay away from such images for a while. I hope there are some CC images from Flickr so maybe we can use it on the article. Terence Ong 01:18, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
We should probably remove those concerned fairuse images. I think i added most of them when there was a lack of images. After that, Terence and others did a great job of getting pictures for the article. --Vsion 21:59, 28 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
I removed two of the fairuse images. I need some help to update the Chee SJ's case in this article, I haven't been following the news. --Vsion 14:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

GA on hold

edit
GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS):  
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    a (fair representation):   b (all significant views):  
  5. It is stable.
     
  6. It contains images, where possible, to illustrate the topic.
    a (tagged and captioned):   b lack of images (does not in itself exclude GA):   c (non-free images have fair use rationales):  
  7. Overall:
    a Pass/Fail:  

The article has many references (60+), but could use some more in certain sections that lack in-line citations, which could be leading to OR. Also, there is a tag in the article that does say that the section needs to be updated, and I suggest that that update should happen. Other than that, the article looks like a GA. Diez2 01:25, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Will work on it. In what way its not stable may I ask? If you wish to tell me which parts are not, I can fix the article within the one week period. I will try my best to source as many sections as possible, I will do it over the next few days due to lots of schoolwork. Terence Ong 11:37, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, the stability - was a mistake. Diez2 13:00, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
The two main issues seem to be sections that lack inline citations, and information that needs updating.
Specifically pointing out sections with outdated information, or lacking inline citations, would be appreciated. Note that some apparently unreferenced information may be covered in references used for other information in the article. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 13:43, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
The sections "Party Political Broadcast," "Debate on housing and lift upgrading," "Large turnout at opposition election rallies," "Victory parades," "SDP podcast," and the latter part of "Election issues" all need in-line citations. As for the updating tag, it seems to have been removed. Diez2 16:33, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

This article appears to have everything that a GA article requires. I don't know what the hold up is. I went ahead and passed it. Da54 22:45, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

There are rooms for improvement, let's be patient on this. Since Diez2 has kindly listed the specific issues, we should try to address them. Regarding the "update" tag, I put it in some time ago because of some news on Chee's trial; but it was my mistake, the court hearing was about a different case which was irrelevant to the election. There haven't been much progress on the "defamation" issue. Thus, I removed the tag after realizing my mistake. --Vsion 23:07, 17 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

    • According to Wikipedia:Citing sources, there is no requirement to wikify dates in the reference. If fact, in the guideline page itself, the dates in refs are not wikified. This makes sense because the dates are not relevant to the context, and to prevent overlinking. Please clarify on whether this is an accepted requirement for GA or FAC; and if so, provide the reference to the guideline. Thnx. --Vsion 15:12, 18 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

    • Even Canadian federal election, 1993 a FA, does not wikify its dates. And with the citing sources guideline page, they do not wikify the dates. Therefore, its optional and it may not need to be wikilinked. Only we have lacking of one session, the election day section. Will do it later. Terence Ong 10:06, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
      • First, your ref dates aren't even in the same format, you should at least be consistent and that is a definite issue. Secondly, if you check the date linking policy--"if a date includes both a month and a day, then the date should almost always be linked" to cite just one part, it does in fact say dates should be linked and if you check the more recent FAs, all the dates are linked. When using cite format for refs, if you use the "accessdate" option and put the date in the format YYYY-MM-DD, it will automatically wikilink and display in the user's selected date pref format and it takes less typing than other formats. I'm bowing out now, you guys do what you want.Rlevse 13:58, 19 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Article delisted from GA category

edit

This article has just has its GA status reassessed as part of the WP:SWEEPS; the article was found to have substantial problems, especially in the matter of referencing and prose quality. Given the substantial nature of these deficiencies, the article has been failed immediately as it is felt that the necessary improvements required to meet the GA criteria will not be made within a 7-day grace period. However, as there has been some (minor) activity on this article recently, and because it is listed under 2 WikiProjects, if the issues outlined in the reassessment are addressed and resolved within 7 days, then I will undertake an immediate GA review to re-list the article. The reassessment review can be found here. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any queries regarding this matter. ✽ Juniper§ Liege (TALK) 15:55, 16 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Punctuation should be either "pre–election day events" or "pre-election-day events". — kwami (talk) 03:00, 3 February 2011 (UTC)Reply


Further down, it should be "fill/filled in" and not "fill/filled up" the form — Preceding unsigned comment added by Steveielts (talkcontribs) 17:19, 6 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
