[edit] RE: Erik Eastaugh

I would like to move this page be deleted, I notice it has been some time since it was last nominated for removal, and given I am engaged in a similar argument about the Chris Erskine page, I might as well nominate this too... unfortunately I am not sure how to get it a new page to be wiped, and I notice you gave the verdict for the previous debate.

[edit] Redintegration Deletion Query

You were associated with the deletion of the Redintegration page. I am wondering whether there was 'any' content at all one that page. I have created a Wiktionary entry for the word and may create a redirection to an article (either Associationism or Association of Ideas) that has a little content about it. Redintegration is also occasionally used as a title for avant-garde music pieces. As an old word it can also appear in quotes, where style discourages links.

Please let me know if there was ever any content. I would like to extract whatever I can from previous efforts. DCDuring 15:49, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

  • That's what I feared. Thanks for getting back to me so fast. DCDuring 15:58, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] californian guns

How could you delete a valuable contribution to wikipedia? Californian Guns is commonly used term amongst bodybuilders.

Please reconsider. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.91.9.190 (talk) 05:34, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Link-distance

You have deleted Link-distance. Can you tell me why? It does make sense, maybe it's too mathematician or English is not clear enough. But not nonsense! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Flocsy (talkcontribs) 08:20, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Updated DYK query On 28 September 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Washinomiya Shrine , which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

[edit] Use of coat of arms of Singapore in templates

Hi, I noticed that you recently applied the Singapore coat of arms to {{Politics of Singapore}} and {{Infobox Court Case}}. While I think that the coat of arms is attractive and suitable for these infoboxes, rule 3(1) of the Singapore Arms and Flag and National Anthem Rules (Cap. 296, R1, 2004 Rev. Ed.) states: "[N]o person shall, without the prior written permission of the Minister or any authorised officer — (a) print, publish, manufacture, sell, offer for sale or exhibit for sale; (b) cause to be printed, published, manufactured, sold, offered for sale or exhibited for sale; (c) send, distribute or deliver to, or serve on, any other person; or (d) cause to be sent, distributed or delivered to, or served on, any other person, any writing, material or object in or on which appears the Arms or any token, insignia, emblem or other thing that so nearly resembles the Arms as to be capable of being mistaken for the Arms." Rule 3(2) states: "[N]o person shall, without the prior written permission of the Minister or any authorised officer, use or apply the Arms on any writing, material or object." That was why the coat of arms was replaced with Image:Singov top 02.gif in {{Politics of Singapore}}, as these regulations do not apply to use of that logo.

This matter needs to be discussed further, so I'm posting a modified copy of this message on the talk page of the SGpedians' notice board. Further discussion on the matter can take place there. Cheers, Jacklee 18:31, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Featured articles

Hi, yes, I'm aware of the Wikipedia:Featured articles process. So far, I've only been able to get one article, "Richard Hakluyt" (it's not a Singapore-related one), up to FA status, and you can see from "Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Richard Hakluyt" that it was a very tortuous process. I honestly don't think I have time right now to get any additional articles up to FA level as I'm busy working on my PhD. Which articles that I've worked on do you think are worth trying to get up to FA status? Cheers, Jacklee 21:54, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] London Taxis

TX1 and TXII have the same picture, which can't be right for both of them! --PeterR 07:17, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Of all the DYK expiring today or tomorrow, I think your's is the best. As a result, I've added it to the next update list. Since this is the first time that I have done it, you may review it to see if I did it correctly.

Good work writing the article.Chergles 17:41, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Thank you for letting me know I put it in the wrong spot. I put it in another section. Hopefully, I did it correctly this time. If not, I'll let someone else try. Chergles 17:52, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mishpachah Lev-Tsiyon deletion

These articles, which are redirects to the deleted article in question, need to be deleted also: New Covenant Church of God (Sweden), Mishpachah lev-tsiyon and New Covenant Ministries. Thanks. Drumpler 18:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

One more request. Can you also delete Talk:Mishpachah_Lev-Tsiyon/Archive_1 as it is no longer relevant and contains a lot of personal information on it? I tried blanking it, but all it did was add a new discussion page to the already deleted article. Thanks. :) Drumpler 18:29, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Singapore Airlines fleet

This is to inform that the Singapore Airlines fleet article has been nominated for deletion by Russavia. Please refer to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Singapore Airlines fleet (2nd nomination) and weigh in your opinion if you wish. Thank you!--Huaiwei 06:56, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

Hello. See my comments here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Russavia#Singapore_Airlines_fleet Do you think this is a good suggestion? The suggestion is that I have some ideas to improve the Singapore Airlines Fleet article into more than a list. (2 of my ideas are mentioned in the AFD. I have many more ideas.) However, this type of article takes a lot of effort because it's getting little pieces of information from many sources, not just summarising a webpage from the airline's website. If the AFD is delayed, I am willing to help improve WP.

If you think my idea is stupid, just let me know. I don't mind being called an idiot if it's true. Archtransit 20:57, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding MTR's merger

After the shareholders have approved the merger, the merger has to be approved by the creditors of KCR, in a meeting to be held in mid/late October. Then, LegCo has to publish the gazette of the merger, and then the merger would be in effect 28 days after that period, so the merger should be done by the end of the year. (According to Ming Pao, [1], that is)--Alasdair 12:47, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bearian's RfA

Thank you for supporting my RfA, which passed 63 to 1. I hope that I'm doing a good job so far. Bearian 20:37, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 10 October 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Lock v. Goh, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
