[edit] Uploading to Commons

If you upload your pictures to commons.wikipedia.org instead of the English Wikipedia, all the other language Wikipedias will have access to them as well (they will still be available here on the English Wikipedia). The procedure is pretty much the same, however, you can not upload fair use images there, so, for instance, the scan of the newspaper would still have to remain on the English Wikipedia. __meco 08:49, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WP:LIVING and September 2006 Thailand coup

Roger jg, thanks for your opinion on how to report the junta's accusations without infringing WP:LIVING. Patiwat 08:51, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 19sept on blogger

You mentioned that 19sept was up on blogger. Could you give me the URL, please? I can't seem to find it. Patiwat 15:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] No. of protestors at Siam Center

We've got three sources with 3 widely differing figures for the number of protestors. I think Wikipedia:Verifiability#Verifiability, not truth should be called upon; we should just show all three figures, note the source, and figure out which estimate to believe. This is quite a common issue when reporting on protests, e.g., attendance estimates for the PAD's protests differed widely depending on whether it was the PAD/Manager Daily, Government, Local press, or International press that was doing the estimating. We ended up quoting every estimate that was made. Patiwat 09:45, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Your contributions to the September 2006 Thailand coup article are greatly appreciated!

Roger jg, your contributions to the September 2006 Thailand coup article are greatly appreciated. For people in Thailand and throughout the world, the article is a critical source of up-to-date, high-quality, uncensored, and comprehensive information about the Thai nation at this most critical juncture. I therefore am giving you the following award, which you may copy to your User page.

The Thai Barnstar of National Merit
Awarded to Roger jg,
for tireless contributions to the September 2006 Thailand coup article.

[edit] When posting a controversy to Disc. page, please quote what the controversial text is

I'm giving this message to both you and Humanoid. When you post something to the Discussion page with the intention of airing out an issue (a most praise-worthy action), could you also please quote what the controversial text in the article is? I'm reading through some of your debates, and it is very hard to figure out exactly what you two are arguing about. Even when I flip back to the article page, I still can't figure out what exactly it is you're arguing about. Thanks. Patiwat 07:21, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] That BBC article wasn't very exemplary

Roger jg, that BBC article you praised was full of mistakes. Please read my rebuttal of some key inaccuracies in the coup discussion page. Patiwat 00:24, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Suggested merger of articles

Humanoid and Roger jg, I'm sending this message to both of you, given that we 3 seem to be the main editors for Public disapproval and protest of the 2006 Thailand coup d'état and Public support for the 2006 Thailand coup d'état.

I believe that the two articles should be merged. I originally started both of these articles without thinking too much, but now have second thoughts

  • A reader reading through the messages and activities of both articles would get a much more balanced perspective than a reader that only read through one of the articles.
  • I don't think that the combined articles will grow so long as to warrant splitting later on. After the appointment of the civilian government, I believe that support and criticism of the coup will instead be directed towards the civilian government.

I have placed this notice on the talk pages of both the support and the protest article. Since the protest article seems much more active, I'd suggest that any debate occur in that article. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Patiwat 10:13, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confuzzled

Hello, I notice you have the LGBT project userbox on your page, but you don't appear to be on the membership list. Is this due to your oversight or mine? :) Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 08:09, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Add you name to our member list and you're a member! Good to have you! Dev920 (Have a nice day!) 15:49, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Welcome to WikiProject LGBT studies!

Hi, Roger jg, welcome to WikiProject LGBT Studies!

We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying, categorizing, and improving articles of interest to the LGBT community. Some points that may be helpful:

  • Our main aim is to help improve LGBT-related articles, so if someone asks for help with an article, please try your hardest to help them if you are able.
  • Most important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is highly recommended that you watchlist it.
  • The project has several ongoing and developing activities, such as article quality assessment, peer review and a project-wide article collaboration, all of which you are welcome to take part in. We also have a unique program to improve our lower quality articles, Jumpaclass, so please consider signing up there.
  • If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to our translation section, to help us improve our foreign LGBT topics.

The AIDS project is interesting, but unfortunately, I type very slowly in Thai. Wish I could be more of a help... Patiwat 08:22, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:BP200906.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:BP200906.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:37, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
