[edit] Project Southeast Asia

Thanks for the invitation. However, I am busy with administrator responsibilities at the Vietnamese-language Wikipedia, so my activities at the English Wikipedia will only be limited to reverting vandalism and improving a limited number of articles in my watchlist. I don't know that much about Vietnam or SE Asia to be all that helpful. DHN 08:58, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vietnam WikiProject

I am told you might be interested in a separate WikiProject for Vietnam, like Wikipedia:WikiProject Southeast Asia, I have posted the proposal at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Proposals#Vietnam_WikiProject Chris 04:13, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Please, join us at Wikipedia:WikiProject Vietnam! Chris 04:07, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Joining WikiProject Southeast Asia

Thanks for the note on the Southeast Asia WikiProject, Bao. However, I think there is a seperate WikiProject Vietnam going on though. enderminh 11:04, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Overseas Vietnamese

What do you think about using the {{Infobox ethnic group}} template for all the population statistics at the beginning? Syntax is something like:

{{Infobox Ethnic group
|group      = Overseas Vietnamese
|population = Total number
|region1    = {{flagcountry|Name of country}}
|pop1       = Number in country (year)
|ref1       = [http://www.example.com/]
|region2    = {{tl|flagcountry|Name of country}}
|pop2       = Number in country (year)
|ref2       = http://www.example.com/
...
|languages  = Vietnamese
|religions  = 
}}

Looks more consistent among different articles on migration topics, like Iranian citizens abroad, Non-resident Indian and Person of Indian Origin, Overseas Chinese, etc, and we can add pictures to it too. Cheers, cab (talk) 00:13, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
