[edit] Ministry of Education of Singapore

[1]

Then the list should be linked from the article. However, the list may grow too big, so maybe a separate List of government-operated schools in Singapore can be made. WhisperToMe 03:52, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Actually this link is already in the box for Education in Singapore at the bottom of the article, but I am ok with your edit. Thanks. —Sengkang 04:24, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikimania 2007 bid

Hello, if you are not aware of the Wikimania's bid next year, you may like to take a look. I need some volunteers and it will be great if you like to help out. It's alright if you can't, though shortlisting only starts on 15 September, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. It will be nice to meet you though. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 11:37, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Will need to find out more about this first (do not know much what Wikimania is about!) =) —Sengkang 16:13, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Read more about Wikimania at its article. Looks like a big event! Just to find out, what does helping out entail? May not be able to help out much as I am entangled in my full employment. —Sengkang 13:54, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

May I request for images? I post it here since the notice board's images page is dead. Can you take pictures of the Hungry Ghost Festival (burning of papers, worshipping them, Getais etc.), we need more pictures of such festivals. Keep up the good collection though. :) It will be nice to have more pictures of Fernvale and Rivervale. Local and foreign community pictures are needed and worshipping and stuff, this is needed in articles such as the demographics and religous articles. Sorry if the demands are a little too high. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 11:46, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Ah...today is the last day of the 7th month...I am afraid it is too late. Will find the time to take photos of Rivervale and Fernvale though I am ironically too lazy to walk about my neighbourhood...lol. As for the demographics and religious articles, I will see what I can help. —Sengkang 16:13, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I thought the seventh month this year lasts until September. ;) --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 05:44, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes, there are two 7th months this lunar year, the second one is the so-called "leap 7th month". However, traditionally, the festivities are only carried out in the first 7th month and not extended to the second one. So, "officially", the 7th month was over yesterday at the stroke of midnight (or 11 p.m. as some would say). —Sengkang 05:56, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining to me, now I understand how the seventh month works. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:53, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] IP blocking

I frequently use the IP address 166.121.37.10 to access Wikipedia and do unofficial policing, attempting to detect and reverse vandalised articles. However, I am often thwarted from doing so as the above IP address is always banned. I hope admins can look into this. Thanks! —Sengkang 01:05, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

• Hi Sengkang, I changed the above block to anon-only. Hopefully this fixes things. If not, let me know. Cheers -- Samir धर्म 02:29, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi Samir, it seems that I am on a dynamic IP address (166.121.x.x) as I am now in turn blocked on 166.121.36.8! Anyway, thanks for your help. I guess I have to live with it. —Sengkang 03:17, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Fixed that one, I hope. Rich Farmbrough 11:50 25 August 2006 (GMT).

Thanks for all your help. I have been blocked again on User:166.121.37.9 for the past 2 days. —Sengkang 03:45, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

That is claimed to be a Open Proxy, i.e. a computer anyone can use. I've requested that it be rechecked by the people who do that sort of thing. Sorry I can't be of more help. JesseW, the juggling janitor 04:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Napier Road 2, Singapore, Jul 06.JPG

That's Holland Road, not Napier Road. Napier Road only starts after Botanic Gardens. Just to let you know. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 03:26, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. Looks like the on-line street directores are wrong. I have just verified with the official street directory issued by Singapore Land Authority that you are indeed correct. —Sengkang 03:33, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Which edition? I thought they don't produce directories anymore, Mighty Minds does it now. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 07:22, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

The 21st edition, 2002/03, the last one. Mighty Minds is too garish and childish-looking to me. Some of the information is also not accurate, and I don't think it's sanctioned by SLA. —Sengkang 09:07, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Lol. SLA don't produce anymore road directories, now its all the private corporations who publish the directories. There's AAS if you don't like Mighty Minds. I have bought almost every edition of Mighty Minds directories. To be honest, the very first one was lousy. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 14:54, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

I see, maybe I am particular where accuracy of information is concerned. What does AAS stand for? —Sengkang 01:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Automobile Association of Singapore. Mighty Minds is accurate nowadays, but just don't trust their places of NTUCs or Cheers stores. Their information is always verified somewhere around October the previous year. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 10:51, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

I see. Maybe I am just being nostalgic, with unflinching loyalty to the "real" street directory when I received my first edition in the 1980s! LoL —Sengkang 06:08, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Ummm, are you going for the Biennale? Do take pictures, if you do go. ;) But the sad thing is you cannot take pictures at places like National Museum and Art Museum, it was good though. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 15:01, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

Most probably, as this event would last until November. Maybe more of the static displays. Have you taken any? —Sengkang 01:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Finished all the paid attractions. Taken tons of pictures, but I need a lot of time to sort and upload it, very lazy in such things. And Friday evenings (1800 - 2100) are free, except National Museum which closes at 6pm sharp. Would you mind if I email you, or can you sign in on MSN? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 10:51, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

I envy you with lotsa time to visit all the paid attractions! I am ok with you emailing me but I may not be familiar with the masterpieces which you have taken (being not personally there), and hence may not be of much help in sorting them out. —Sengkang 06:10, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

A staff told me you can get a book about the biennale for ten bucks, which features all the masterpieces and the events. Its fine though. I realised I have about 10,000 pics to sort, though quite a lump sum are rejects. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 07:07, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

10,000???!!! That's shocking. How did you manage to take that many photos? LoL —Sengkang 07:18, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I take around 200 - 450 pics usually, though sometimes it can be less than 200 (around 100+ or even less than that), I occasionally go crazy and take 600 pics a day. Yesterday, I went lunatic, took 900 pics. What's your SD card memory? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 08:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Wow, you are indeed a photography fanatic! The most I have ever taken in a single day is about 200+ pics. My SD memory is only 1GB. Just a word of caution, be careful of where you aim your camera as photography is forbidden at certain locations, e.g. near strategic installations. —Sengkang 08:31, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I have several 1GB, 512MB, 256MB cards, but I don't use them since I got my 2GB card, unless my card is misplaced or in use. What do you mean by "near strategic installations"? Thanks for the reminder. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:08, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I would say protected government buildings and foreign embassies. —Sengkang 09:28, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Ahh, no wonder I see no pics from you of MFA Building for example or any embassies. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:30, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On 6 September 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Old Ministry of Labour Building, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Huang Biren

Pls stop adding the year that she was born. thanks. Huang Biren said she did not want anyone to know her age [comment by User:Darrentzw on 10:06, September 8, 2006]

LoL! —Sengkang 02:10, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

--Mgm|^(talk) 11:49, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks!

Thanks for the Barnstar, really appreciate that. I'm currently quite obsessed with semi-/fully-automatic wikipedia tools, which I'm finding very useful for maintenance. I hope you find the page Wikipedia:SGpedians' notice board/Maintenance helpful. If you have any repetitive task in mind, or want some analysis on Sg-articles, please send me a note. Thanks again. ;D --Vsion 02:58, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

It is very helpful. I am totally amazed at your ingenuity in creating the bots. —Sengkang 17:10, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE: Barnstar!

Hi Sengkang, thanks for the barnstar! Your collection is also excellent as well, so is your article contributions, keep it up. :) Happy editing. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 12:38, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I believe you now have the largest number of photos on commons! —Sengkang 17:11, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

Not really, you have more than me. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:13, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On 24 September 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Queen Elizabeth Walk, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Re : Thanks!

No problem, and am glad to be of your help :) - Cheers, Mailer Diablo 19:06, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Go Vandal-whacker

Hi. I was just looking through your log of contributions and saw that you have made quite a few vandalism reverts. Vandalism-reversion is good work, but it should be accompanied with appropriate warnings to the vandals/users. So, please warn vandals with a test template after they have vandalised. Thank you. --Nearly Headless Nick 08:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Hi, would you have some test templates for me to refer to? Thanks. —Sengkang 08:48, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, you can check this page out. Regards, --Nearly Headless Nick 09:12, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. —Sengkang 09:14, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Festival pics

Can youtake pics of the Chinese Garden Lantern Festival, Chinatown mooncake festival light up, Kampong Glam and Geylang Serai Hari Raya light up and the Little India Deepavali light up, provided you have the time? If you do spot a Ramly burger stall at the pasar malam, do snap a shot. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:15, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Sure, will give it a shot, though I am not good at night photo-taking. You taken any? —Sengkang 09:17, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Not yet though, though I hope I can take. You should get a tripod then. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:31, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Exam time for you? Yup, considering to get one, though I will not be as mobile then. —Sengkang 09:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Kind of, starting to prepare, not much time left. I once thought of getting a DSLR, but I'm not "pro" enough yet to use a DSLR. You do work in the civil service right i.e. MOE? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:45, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Good luck to your exams! Yup, thought of getting one DSLR too but after much consideration, I prefer a friendly point-and-shoot camera which is more convenient for me to lunge around. Well...not convenient for me to reveal my occupation here. =) —Sengkang 09:49, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Better use email. Someone leaked out his secret on distorting his identity on a user's talk page. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 09:59, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Lol! —Sengkang 15:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Done for Chinatown. —Sengkang 16:02, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Nice. :) I hope I can visit Chinatown soon, maybe on the day itself. I passed by there, but didn't get the chance to take any. :( --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:16, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks...heard the Little India lights are better. Only caught them in the daytime, hope to go there at night soon. —Sengkang 13:22, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

ST rated the Deepavali ones the best ;) Think will drop by again, though I have some daytime ones (taken from the car). I heard the Kampong Glam/Geylang Serai lights are average, but I hope they sell Ramly burgers. :P - Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:25, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Yup, caught them in the daytime. Wasn't impressed until I saw the photos in ST. I was like...Wow! You have a sudden craving for Ramlies? Lol —Sengkang 13:30, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

I never tried them before, yearning to taste Ramlies. Lol... Do take more cuisine pics. Now the haze is getting worse, you may like to take a picture or two of hazy Singapore. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 14:13, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Here's my Ramly. Lol —Sengkang 03:05, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

My haze gallery is here too. —Sengkang 03:07, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Done for Deepavali. —Sengkang 04:26, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Oh great! Nice ones for all though, was in Chinatown on Friday night snapping pics. I wonder if I have any opportunity to go to Little India or Kampong Glam to snap pics. But that will be after the festive seasons (my exams are during this period of time, unfortunately). Did you buy a ticket to enter City Hall? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 05:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. I didn't know I have to purchase a ticket to go in there until I encountered "bouncers" at the entrance....and nope, I did not go in eventually. —Sengkang 02:50, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Make a visit on a Friday night (6 to 9 pm), it is free. So as for Tanglin Camp and Singapore Art Museum. National Museum closes at six daily, so no way it is free. :( There are other attractions to go to that is free, see this page. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 05:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bird vandal

Just for info, I've blocked the bird vandal, but you beat me to the rollback! jimfbleak 15:44, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

It's my pleasure. Lol —Sengkang 15:48, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Meetup

Hello, I'm organising a meetup around late November. If you're interested, do leave your name here. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 06:08, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Will see how. Thanks for organising. —Sengkang 00:56, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for reverting 193.216.130.187's various vandal edits; I've left a couple warnings on his talk page, and I'll be keeping a close eye on him as well. Is there a way to tell if this user is a dynamic IP? His contributions all seem to be very recent, and the amount of edits compared to the time he's done them in lead me to beleive he's done this before. ¡Kribbeh!^Speak!\_Contribs 16:59, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, np. As for dynamic IP, I have no clue too. —Sengkang 00:58, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On 6 October 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Tan Kim Seng, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] DYK

On 9 October 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Pagoda Street, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

--Peta 05:14, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Singapore

Cheers for the help reverting the Singapore article :) I'm new here, and it's all a bit much so far... but I think I'm getting the hang of it :) Pursey 15:30, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

You are welcome. As with every online community, vandals are always lurking around. Lol. —Sengkang 15:34, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sellapan Ramanathan

Hi, I still insist that Sellapan Ramanathan was not elected. An Election involves a group of individuals casting votes. This has not happened in this case. This may be a legal process in Singapore but it's not a democratic election by any definition. --AmH2 16:17, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikitravel

I intend to use some of your pics for Wikitravel, a travel website not related to Wikimedia. However, the pictures must be uploaded under the Creative Commons license? Do you mind me using them on Wikitravel? You may like to join the community there and help improve the travel pages over there. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 12:56, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. Creative commons licence? —Sengkang 12:58, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Creative Commons. Good job on the Chinatown road articles. I managed to write one today. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. Sure, you could upload them under the Creative Commons licence. —Sengkang 01:27, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE:Singapore shopping malls

Goodness, he is also prodding Taka's main article which is a listed company in Japan. Ngee Ann City is so huge and very well known and he wants to prod it. Suntec was the largest mall before VivoCity and it also has to go, Centrepoint is notable for Robinsons and also has to go. Sim Lim is a tourist attraction and also has to go. Shaw House that has a Lido also has to go. Marina Square one of the largest malls, also has to go. Tampines Mall one of the biggest malls in the east, also has to say goodbye. This is madness. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 15:49, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

So do you think we should go around Afd'ing other editors' hard work? Lol —Sengkang 15:51, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

I will email you. Some things are not meant for the public to see. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 15:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, thanks. —Sengkang 15:58, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

I talk to you on GTalk, then later you go offline. We need to discuss some urgent issues, which is not meant for any Tom, Dick and Harry. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 05:08, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Ok, just 10 mins, I need to go out soon. —Sengkang 05:10, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Check your email. Ok, I may sound irritating, and I'm sorry. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 15:31, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

		The Anti-Vandalism Barnstar!
		Glen is thrilled to award Sengkang with this small token of appreciation and acknowledgement for exceptional performance in the art of troll extermination, cruft elimination and for ensuring Wikipedia is safe for public consumption... You are a legend, please keep up the great work! Glen 15:54, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! It's my pleasure. —Sengkang 15:55, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thank you

Thank you for making Great edits to the encyclopedia and making others feel welcomed to work here. Have a nice day--Seadog.M.S 22:15, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. Thanks. —Sengkang 02:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

On October 19, 2006, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Hong San See, which you created. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Blnguyen | BLabberiNg 01:52, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hong San See

Hi, great job on the article. Is it possible if you rewrite the architecture bit in a few paragraphs rather than dot points. Maybe the paragraphs can be written based on different parts of the building such as roof, hall, .. — 14:06, October 19, 2006 Wai Hong

Thanks. Perhaps u can help too. —Sengkang 06:35, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tiger

Sorry for not reverting Tiger right. For some reason my computer has started auto reverting to the very LAST edit instead of the one I select... Or maybe it's just me. x_x; -WarthogDemon 06:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

No problem at all. We are all in this anti-vandal business together. —Sengkang 06:36, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Email and Chat

Hello, please do check your email if the email you gave me is not your primary email. And I hope to meet you again on MSN on 27 October (at night). See you. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 10:58, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

One more road article left...Lol. I believe Ann Siang Road should have its own article and not redirect to Ann Siang Hill. Able to sign in on MSN for a while? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

If we have articles such as Peck Seah Street and McCallum Street, then I believe a longer road like Cantonment Road which you made it as a redirect should also become an article. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 14:00, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Sure, just temporarily redirecting them first, as they have sub-articles under Tanjong Pagar. Slow and steady lah...Lol —Sengkang 00:37, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to trouble you, forgot they have a bigger and better pasar malam at Geylang Serai and also a light up there? Planning to make any visits before or after Hari Raya? I need more pictures for areas like Ang Mo Kio, Yishun, Pulau Ubin, Kusu Island, Pulau Hantu, St. John's and Sisters Islands, dunno whether Sehajat and Bukom still accessible to public. Need more aerial views of Singapore city area and outlying islands. Need some cuisine pics badly, not only local but Malaysian or Chinese food. I know this is a very high demand, but take your time to do it. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 10:05, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Nope, not planning to go Geylang Serai. —Sengkang 10:11, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

How about the other requests? It's fine if you are not willing to do it. I will find time to do it as well, to ease the burden for you. I heard Geylang is doing a thriving business whereas Suria Raya is having bad business, as seen in ST Home section on Saturday. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 10:21, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, I contribute for the fun of it. So, will do it if my schedule allows. I also do not own a car and rely on Bus Service No. 11 all the time. I am sure you have more available free time than me. Yup, not many people when I went there last time. —Sengkang 13:11, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Better get working for the next few days, I don't want to repeat my level. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:24, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Exams are more important. Hope not to see you here in the next few days. Lol —Sengkang 13:26, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Outram

Imo, I rather we categorise them under Category:Chinatown, Singapore, its much better as we are being more precised as well as for Tanjong Pagar, categorise them under Category:Tanjong Pagar. Since you created them already, then we shall stick to Outram but have also another category. I really need sources for Centrepoint's renovation and if you really keep archives back in the 1980s and 1990s, well its fine if you don't have it though. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 14:08, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I've categorised it under the Outram Planning Area, which I am systematically doing for all locations in Singapore, which is to cat places under their respective urban planning areas. Of course, you could create the above categories too. —Sengkang 15:31, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

I can't seem to find any sources for shopping centres' articles, sad case, another mass deletion soon. —Sengkang 15:45, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

By the way, these few days, my Firefox often crashes on wikipedia. Dunno why, darn it. —Sengkang 15:47, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Maybe you can use IE, even though you dislike it. I myself dislike it as well, but well, that's the last resort. I hope our articles don't get deleted, maybe I will make a trip down to NLB Building to find the article. A lot of this info in the malls are from my own knowledge that I read in the papers back then. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 01:55, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Sorry to gahjiao you, can come on MSN? It's alright if you have other things to do. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:21, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

It's very redundant to have Category:Orchard since we have Category:Orchard Road. Don't you agree? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 12:01, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Orchard Road does not only mean places located on the road itself, it refers to the entire Orchard, Scotts shopping belt. That's my opinion, of course. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 12:08, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

In creating Category:Orchard, I am actually following the nomenclature of the urban planning areas, which in this case refers to the Orchard Planning Area. The naming convention being adhered here is to remove the "Planning Area", and thereby leaving only the word "Orchard" and therefore Category:Orchard for the category for Orchard Planning Area. In the case of Category:Orchard Road, it would be somewhat similar to Category:Chinatown, Singapore which you have created. Thus, Orchard Road would become a sub-set of the Orchard Planning Area (although the road itself extends into the Museum Planning Area near Dhoby Ghaut). Hope this clarifies. (I expected to hear from you. Lol) —Sengkang 13:18, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Yes, your style of naming is good and I support that. The thing is I believe the Orchard Road category is not only places located on the road itself but including the places that is which is commonly listed under the Orchard shopping belt. The special categories (like Chinatown and Orchard Road) are more for like "touristy" purposes. You don't expect someone to say Plaza Singapura is in Museum, sounds too vague or Shangri-La in Tanglin cos most people don't know where on earth is Tanglin. We shall see for the rest, I plan to start writing road articles of major roads, Little India, Kampong Glam and notable roads. --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 13:39, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Now that I know your intentions, we will leave it as that. I will not gah-jiao your Category:Orchard Road. I like a good discussion! Thanks. —Sengkang 13:43, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Lol...Maybe we can help the new Wikipedia project when it runs. Shall we collaborate on writing articles of Singaporean places? --Terence Ong _{(T | C)} 14:17, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Haha...I have a phobia of projects. You can propose some ideas. But I can only contribute now and then, and I always contribute in spurts you know. Lol —Sengkang 15:27, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Argon popup reverts

Take a look at the history of the argon article. According to the edit summaries, your reversions were to the correct revisions, but checking the diffs [2][3] they both times somehow missed the last edit. A bad case of server lag? A bug in the popups? Technically this shouldn't be possible to happen at all, any idea what caused it? Femto 15:37, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Hmm...thanks for pointing this out. This should be a flaw in the popups? Do you know to whom shall we provide feedback to? —Sengkang 02:31, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

I've posted at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical)#Incomplete reversions. Femto 14:38, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Duxton Hill

It would be nice if you could add pronounciations for the chinese characters in the article. Circeus 19:00, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Sure, could add the Pinyin, a pronunciation scheme for Chinese characters. —Sengkang 02:37, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

That'd be perfect. Circeus 13:19, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Reversion of Puma

Hi – I undid your reversion of Puma. The changes look like a good faith effort from one of our newest editors. The changes certainly need some cleanup and perhaps the editor needs some gentle suggestions about how to better add material or an explanation why the material is not appropriate. JonHarder 01:21, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

Ok. —Sengkang 01:51, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

It turns out that long numbered list was copyvio. I should have caught that. Someone else removed it and I warned about copying. JonHarder 04:58, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Were you at Jurong BirdPark on Saturday?? I was there with my friend that day. And I'm still sorting my pics, you are fast man. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 16:21, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Yup, haha. —Sengkang 16:22, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

That trip cost me a bomb, things there are ex. Besides, the birds pooed on me. So suay. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 16:25, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

I din spend a cent! ;) —Sengkang 16:27, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh you got sponsored ah? Lucky you. Feeding lories and buying drinks were the most expensive stuff. Also, having a disappointing cup on Ben & Jerry's at the kiosk, made me buy another one right at the end in the cafe itself... --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 16:30, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

Well, sort of. I try to avoid the F&B outlets there as the prices are obviously marked up. Gotta koon, ciaoz. —Sengkang 16:31, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

I only like Bongo Burgers, even water there costs $3. You have any more pics of BirdPark? I think I'm going to visit Ah Meng tomorrow depending on weather conditions. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 04:09, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Have more taken last year, but no time to sort (since). Also, took a few birds but they will reside in another section. —Sengkang 04:23, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Hope to see it soon, I am a fan of your pics. Lol. BTW, there's this assesment thingy as you know. Refer to notice board for details on how to go about assesing articles. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 04:34, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Oh really? I am so honoured! Lol. The assessment thingy looks quite complicated to me, will go through it when I have the time. —Sengkang 06:08, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

Okay. There is a meetup on 10/11 March 2007. If you are interested, do sign your name. You can't confirm until next year. --Terence Ong _{(C | R)} 14:57, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

Yup, it doesn't harm anybody, you are catching up with me very quickly. Lots of pics of Zoo and BirdPark on the way. I think I'm crazy enough to upload 250 pics of each place... :P Terence Ong 02:00, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

I thought I was a photo fanatic...until you came. Lol —Sengkang 02:05, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Thought you would. Then we would have some nice pics on enwiki of their Shinkansen. I do have some Japanese ones though. :( Terence Ong 05:30, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Was on a guided tour..so I guess it would be above their budget! —Sengkang 05:32, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Ahh. I understand, I was on a guided tour too. Did you go to Taipei 101? Terence Ong 05:36, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Yup, but did not have a chance to catch the exterior of the building though...as it was raining heavily. Did take fotos of the interior of its grand shopping centre and the observatory's entrance. You been to Taiwan before? —Sengkang 05:38, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
