[edit] Image Tagging Image:Apm entrance.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Apm entrance.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.
If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL-self}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 01:47, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ngau Tau Kok
I assume you know the division of election boundary is largerly based on the geographic distribution of population. It is often against common sense to a place. For example, part of Tsing Yi South division is on the reclamation of Stonecutter's Island, solely for administrative division. It is hard to tell why the north of Clear Water Bay Road is Wong Tai Sin District while south is Kwun Tong District except administrative one.
The proper Ngau Tau Kok is around the present-day corner of Kwun Tong Road. It is grow out of a village, then squatter and then public housing estate. In 1936 maps, Jordan Valley is marked as Tai Wan Tsuen, or Tai Wan closed to the shore, and a earlier map of 1932, there are several villages around Ngau Chi Wan. Both marked a distinction from Ngau Tau Kok. South coast of Jordan Valley is a natural extension of the town but not the north.
People usually refer the area around Ping Shek Estate as Ngau Chi Wan or Ping Shek. Up the Clear Water Bay Road and New Clear Water Bay Road is the same cluster of residential housing. It is not linked to Ngau Tau Kok in the community. With in Kwun Tong District, Shun Lee Estate is more closer to Sau Mau Ping.
For Jordan Valley, even on government map, it make the area distinctive from Ngau Tau Kok.
