[edit] Heads of United Kingdom Missions
Thanks for showing an interest in the article. I noticed that you changed the name of the British ambassador to Burma from Vicky Bowman to Mark Channing. Whilst it is correct that Bowman is leaving the embassy in Rangoon, I believe that Mark Channing will replace her only in July. If that is correct, until then, the position will probably be filled by either Bowman or by a chargé d'affaires. If you could clarify what the situation is until then, or confirm when the transition is finalised, that would be superb. Bastin8 23:58, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
Mr Mark Canning has been appointed to be Her Majesty's Ambassador to the Union of Myanmar (Burma) in succession to Ms Vicky Bowman who will be transferring to another Diplomatic Service appointment.
above texts can be found at http://www.fco.gov.uk/servlet/Front?pagename=OpenMarket/Xcelerate/ShowPage&c=Page&cid=1007029391629 it was made on 16/05/06
and the word 'has been appointed' mean he is already apponinted as an ambassador, so he is the ambassador, there is no two ambassador at the same time .Aung win 04:25, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
- It states, "Mr Canning will take up his new appointment in July 2006." I don't know whether his credentials have been accepted, nor do I know the terms of acceptance if they have. However, it is common for credentials to be presented many months after the home government appoints the diplomat, and also common for the conditions of acceptance to stipulate a later date on which the title of 'Ambassador' is conferred (for example, while the diplomat is undergoing language training). Therefore, whilst is it correct that there cannot be two ambassadors at once, that press release does not explain who is the ambassador at the moment. That is why I asked for confirmation from a source other than the FCO. If you have seen another source stating that he is now Ambassador Canning, I'll accept the change. Unless I have confirmation that the new ambassador has taken up the title, it is my usual practice to update the list only when he or she takes up office.
- Both the British government and the Court of St James's refuse to recognise the junta's name change.Bastin8 12:06, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] not vandalism
- Copied from User talk:Bastin8
although UK dosent reconized burman as myanmar , its offical name is myanmar , and this wikipedia have nutral point of view and , you shouldnt have take my contribution as vandalism.
use your common sence, Myanmar is Myanmar, Burma is only named after the sound of Myanmar by the british long time ago upon the colonizing of Myanmar, you can read that clearly here at Myanmar
i dont care wheather the british reconized burman as myanmar, and this is on wikipedia and , it should be viewed as netural point of view as it is the offical policy of wikipedia.
and clearly wikipedia is not the offical webpage of british goverment, myanmar shoild be written as myanmar —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Aung win (talk • contribs) 21:21, 6 July, 2006 (UTC).
- It's not the official webpage of the British government, but the article in question is a list of positions within the British Diplomatic Service. Since 'Ambassador to Myanmar' isn't a diplomatic posting, but 'Ambassador to Burma'(or, more strictly, Ambassador and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Union of Burma) is, it's listed under 'Burma'. See the talk page. If you change it back, despite this second explanation, it can only be considered vandalism. Bastin 21:51, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Controversial statement regarding Sao Pan Thee
Hello. Thanks for adding the Sai Sai Kham Hlaing article to Wikipedia. It has come to my attention that you have added a controversial statement regarding Sao Pan Thee, who was identified as a hoax recently. If you can add a citation to support the statement (see Wikipedia:Citing sources), please do so. And, do not remove the fact template until you or someone else has done so, because that is considered vandalism. Hintha 05:24, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] proposed rename of Wikipedia:WikiProject Burma/Myanmar
A new user has proposed the rename of our project. I intentionally used both names so that all views would be represented. But I would like your thoughts as to which name we should choose, Burma or Myanmar, or leave it like it is. Please share your thoughts, thank you. Chris 19:15, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
