Establishment of The Wikimedia Hong Kong edit

Biodiversity and food edit

I was doing something called Newpage Patrol. If you go to Special:Newpages, you see all the new pages created on Wikipedia.

It was my mistake to mark it for speedy deletion; I should have waited to watch it develop. I also wondered if it wasn't redundant with biodiversity. But you seem to know what you're doing. Grandmasterka 04:09, 12 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Mass spectrum and Mass spectrometry edit

I see you have removed the merge tags from these two articles. Do you not think that doing so should be explained somewhere? I see no explanation on your edit summary or on either talk page. I can see arguments for both merging and not merging. I also see that there has been no discussion of this merge perhaps because there has been so much about the merge of Mass-to-charge_ratio. I would therefore welcome your reasons and suggest you put them on Talk:Mass spectrometry. --Bduke 02:51, 21 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sai Ying Pun Community Complex edit

You deleted the prod tag from the Sai Ying Pun Community Complex article. If you disagree with the tag you can state the reasons for your disagreement or edit the article. You cannot simply remove the tag. --JChap 06:32, 29 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I am keeping on editing the page of Sai Ying Pun Community Complex. I am sorry to mistakenly remove the tag. But I am not happy that some people say that I just remove the tag but do nothing when I am editing any page.

For your information, before the construction of Sai Ying Pun Community Complex, the colonial building stood was later become a famous landmark because of its historic value and the ghost stories in the houses. Shrimp wong 06:52, 29 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

I didn't say you didn't edit it and I now agree it is worthy of inclusion. My only objection is to editors who remove tags unilaterally. You have said this was a mistake, and I believe you. Thanks, --JChap 06:58, 29 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Would you mind reading my edits and see is it ok to remove the tags? Shrimp wong 07:37, 29 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

This is an nice article. Support removal of tags. --JChap 12:42, 29 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Camellia granthamiana edit

Hi Shrimp wong - I have had to remove Image:Grantham's Camellia.jpg from Camellia granthamiana. Unfortunately, the license does not allow its use on that page (annoying, but we have to respect the copyright laws). The use of fair use images is very restricted, from the image page, the license states (my emphasis):

"It is believed that the use of postage stamps to illustrate the stamp in question (as opposed to things appearing in the stamp's design) qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use for more information."

Troides helena edit

Hi ! I saw your edits to Troides helena. The technical description unfortunately cannot easily be improved upon except to remove some of the Victorian English (this is from Bingham 1905-1907). I will add links to the glossary of lepidopteran terms which will tell the reader what the technical terms mean. The cleanup tag is a little too distracting. There are hundreds of articles with the same kind of language used in the descriptions (Start here at List of butterflies of India) :( BTW, there is an image of Centella asiatica here Image:Centella asiatica1.jpg.

I would like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Cinema of Hong Kong edit

Hello Shrimp Wong. Welcome to Wikipedia. I see you've been active in adding "See also" links to the List of Hong Kong films, and I applaud your efforts and enthusiasm. However, instead of adding the "See also" link, I wonder if you'd consider adding the {{CinemaofHongKong}} to the bottom of the pages instead? It has the link to the film list, as well as other helpful navigation aids. It's a new template, and it's being used by some of the other country cinema articles, like Cinema of Thailand and Cinema of Australia. If you any questions, feel free to leave me a message. — WiseKwai 10:15, 21 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your dramatic improvement of the newly created plant evolution article! Let me know if I can help out in any way. I'd like to see some pictures or "comparitive diagrams" (species vs. time sort of cartoons). I'll see what I can find! Nimur 17:22, 2 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Tuen Mun Park edit

Hi Shrimp

you added a redirect for Tuen Mun Town Park to Tuen Mun Park, but that article does not exist yet. Are you planning to add in the latter article? Otherwise we may as well clean up the redirect to nowhere! PS thanks for your work on Sai Ying Pun Community Complex! GB 21:24, 24 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Redirect of Northern Vietnamese Box Turtle edit

 

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Northern Vietnamese Box Turtle, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Northern Vietnamese Box Turtle is a redirect to a non-existent page (CSD R1).

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Northern Vietnamese Box Turtle, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

ELCHK Truth Lutheran Church edit

 

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article ELCHK Truth Lutheran Church, 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 ELCHK Truth Lutheran Church.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite edit

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!
