Welcome!

Welcome to Wikipedia, Kyaw 2003! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:

There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk Pages using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)

I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Acetic'Acid 13:50, August 31, 2005 (UTC)


Hi! Thank you for contributing information about the Saung. Are the pictures you uploaded copyrighted? If they are, please ask permission first. We can only use pictures in the public domain or under another free license. Another thing: instead of duplicating information on many similarly-named articles, we can use redirects. Thanks!

Dhamma Society Fund edit

It's a bit difficult because in Thai culture it's not really accepted to criticize in public... But, i found the following:

http://www.dhammasociety.org/mds/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=155&Itemid=309&limit=1&limitstart=1#tocontent

The Dhamma Society Fund is publishing this new Tipitaka, and on the above page they mention that their Tipitaka is the "first-ever publication of the complete Pāḷi Tipiṭaka of the Great Buddhist International Council convened in B.E. 2500/1956". It's indirectly claiming that none of the other publications (whether in Roman or Burmese script) were complete. I can't get more specific than this. If it's not good enough, please copy the comments to the talk-page, and when at a later time more info is published (on their website?), it can be re-inserted easily.

Do you know of any way to render asinthint on this badge into Burmese text? I am going to have a clearer version made if I can get that. (I apologize, I'm trying to build it from a graphic of the Burmese alphabet, and I am messing it up) Thank you! Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 20:46, 7 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much! When I try to open it, though, it brings up a spam site and will not let me in. Would you get to that screen again, and hit the keyboard buttons [ctrl] and [print screen] and send that image to me? I can walk you through, but it will not let me in, sorry. Thank you!

Thank you, that is wonderful, just what I needed! Chris (クリス • フィッチ) (talk) 02:30, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

ESEAP Conference 2018 edit

 

Hello Kyaw 2003,

I’m Irvin from PhilWiki Community, a member of the Communication Committee of the ESEAP Conference. ESEAP Conference 2018 is a regional conference for Wikimedia communities throughout the ESEAP region: ESEAP stands for East, Southeast Asia, and Pacific. Taking place in Bali, Indonesia on 5–6 May 2018, this is the first regional conference for these Wikimedia communities.

East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific are the most under-represented regions within the Wikimedia community. There is a significant number of Wikimedia contributors in our regions, yet we continue to struggle in establishing a well-managed community. This conference will bring participants from various ESEAP communities together in order to better understand the issues and to look for solutions. It also aims to connect people of the Wikimedia movement within ESEAP regions, to share ideas, and to build regional collaborations that are impossible to achieve through online communication.

We’ve got a lot of participation from several countries, but we’re lacking from your country. As we need more participants from your country, we believe that your contribution and participation would be a valuable asset to the success of this event. If you would like to participate in the conference, please do fill the form as soon as possible (by April 5, 2018) and we’ll inform you if you get selected for the conference.

Thank you and we hope to see you soon. --Filipinayzd 16:00, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
