This article is about a person, place, or concept whose name is originally rendered in the Burmese script; however the article does not have that version of its name in the article's lead paragraph. Anyone who is knowledgeable enough with the original language is invited to assist in adding the Burmese script. In addition, depending on the subject matter, the name may also need to be rendered in other local languages, such as Shan or Karen, and help of this nature is greatly appreciated and most welcomed. For more information, see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Burmese).

Is it true that he was once a strong supporter of Ne Win's one party system in Burma before becoming a democrat in NLD? I very much want to know. Maung Reel, Bangkok —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.25.89.38 (talk) 16:06, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sourcing

That the fellow is "beloved" is not encyclopedic unless it can be sourced from an independent resource, and at any rate is not encyclopedic, it makes the article read like a fansite. Source it or remove it. Chris 05:37, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Read the source... pay attention when you read the article, it is historical fact, you should take a visit to Defense Museum in Yangon... have you ever been there? Okkar 14:10, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

You misunderstood. It is not enough to says "x archives", that's like saying "It's in the library, look it up". Your sentence reads like "Jackie Chan is the best actor". You can source that Jackie Chan's last movie made so much money, or that his website got so many thousands of hits in 2004, but you cannot by itself say that Jackie Chan is "beloved". What you've done is not sourcing, properly. You can say Tin Oo won this medal or had that citation, those are physically provable. The way that sentence reads is not. Chris 17:46, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Can you source any better? If not, I suggest you stop making a fuss about it and pay attention to the other poorly sourced articles you plastered all over wikipedia. Okkar 18:23, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

I didn't make the statement in the first place, it is your job to source your own attributions. And I am calling attention to your retaliatory edits. Chris 18:27, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

So am i. It is your job to source your own attributions too. Your threats are not welcome in Wikipedia and against it's policy. Okkar 18:40, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
