Thank you for your contribution for the page Morley Shih. Your previous revision before September 2017 showed that Shih was indicted on charges of fraud, which is not totally true. The fact is that the loose regulation for the special funds resulted in the charges, and thus these have been decriminalized in 2011. The related reference has been added in the page. However, the incorrect information from your revision has spread out for a while. Thus, I am interested in knowing if you received any request to write the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by OfficeAccount ( talk • contribs) 07:58, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
I noticed you removed the findagrave reference on an article I created about a 19th century Virginia legislator and Confederate soldier, Robert E. Grant (dentist). IMHO the Wikipedia policy allows rare use of findagrave and ancestry.com, in both instances where the information is not available elsewhere. Here, understanding these men's backgrounds is crucial for understanding the era, and ancestry.com links to findagrave.com, which has a photo of gravestone as well as its location (both of which are important to people like these who meet Wikipedia's notability criteria). I tried including just findagrave number, but another editor objected to that. Eliminating all findagrave references per the policy you cited seems unwarranted.

I understand only those big earthquakes shall be made its articles, e.g. those more than 5 or 6 magnitude with big casualties. But I was just thinking where to list down the complete lists of the main earthquake and all of its subsequent aftershocks or smaller earthquakes (less than 5 or 4 magnitudes). It should be listed somewhere (with data & time sequencing of its occurrence) because these data are important enough for 中央氣象局 to release to the public to predict whether another bigger earthquake is waiting to happen anytime soon. e.g. as what was described in this news article ( http://focustaiwan.tw/news/asoc/201802070025.aspx).

If you are going to go a-messing with main page articles, you really ought to try reading the policies you refer to - for example this bit. Or stay away. Johnbod ( talk) 16:20, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
I appreciate your intent, but you really should not move another editor's article Thomas D. Mangelsen without notifying them first. Usually, page moves like this go through a consensus phase first. There is a process for moving pages that you can institute. Also, MOS:INITIALS doesn't apply to article titles actually but to referring to the subject in the article. And moving a page while it is in DYK is very disruptive. It also breaks many wikilinks at a time that is most inconvenient, most of all links inside the DYK template. Please discuss any page moves with editors first in the future, thanks much. Please see Wikipedia:Requested moves. dawnleelynn (talk) 17:20, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Yes, right I can see it, just not edit it. Thanks though. I just sent a message to Yoninah, but she may not be active this late. If she doesn't reply within an hour, I have others I can ask. dawnleelynn (talk) 00:03, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
Okay, try reading that section sometime and see how it consistently talks about content in the body of the article from top to bottom. From the Lead Section down to Authority Control. It's talking about how to address people in the article itself. First it talks about how to address them at the first mention, then in reoccurring mentions, etc. It talks about how they should be addressed in the lead sentence, etc.
From that same section you quoted me, here's another quote right after that: "In article text, a space after an initial (or an initial and a full point) and before another initial should be a non-breaking space: J. R. R. Tolkien (or use the template). This even works inside links: J. R. R. Tolkien, though only with markup, not the template."
Notice it says, "In article text" what more can be said. This bit applies to article text, not to article titles. dawnleelynn (talk) 17:18, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi Vycl1994,
Can help to expand the biography of Justin Huang? Parts which are still missing/incomplete are his early career life (after graduation before entering politics at National Assembly), his general works during his tenure in Legislative Yuan (i've added all of his 3 legislative election results for easy navigation/timeline-based sections), his detailed works during Taitung County Magistrate (as in what policies he proposed and works carried out during his terms). We need to fully write this one first before focusing on any of his scandals as suggested by other editors in the talk page of that article regarding the Miramar Resort thingy. I've made many deletion/re-writing on that article in which not everyone can fully accept such reasoning. Chongkian ( talk) 04:39, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

I noticed you removed the findagrave reference on an article I created about a 19th century Virginia legislator and Confederate soldier, Robert E. Grant (dentist). IMHO the Wikipedia policy allows rare use of findagrave and ancestry.com, in both instances where the information is not available elsewhere. Here, understanding these men's backgrounds is crucial for understanding the era, and ancestry.com links to findagrave.com, which has a photo of gravestone as well as its location (both of which are important to people like these who meet Wikipedia's notability criteria). I tried including just findagrave number, but another editor objected to that. Eliminating all findagrave references per the policy you cited seems unwarranted.

I have just picked up your notification about pinning the English article to Wikidata Q label about the Polish article of the same name. They are two different individuals separated by almost 50 years. The English article concerns a military figure and war veteran born in 1899. The Polish article is about a TV personality born in 1942. Perhaps the label needs to be disconnected? Kind regards,-- Po Mieczu ( talk) 15:07, 15 June 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm

Colleen Conway-Welch, but you didn't provide a
reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to
include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the
referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Mari Yoshihara requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you are going to go a-messing with main page articles, you really ought to try reading the policies you refer to - for example this bit. Or stay away. Johnbod ( talk) 16:20, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
I appreciate your intent, but you really should not move another editor's article Thomas D. Mangelsen without notifying them first. Usually, page moves like this go through a consensus phase first. There is a process for moving pages that you can institute. Also, MOS:INITIALS doesn't apply to article titles actually but to referring to the subject in the article. And moving a page while it is in DYK is very disruptive. It also breaks many wikilinks at a time that is most inconvenient, most of all links inside the DYK template. Please discuss any page moves with editors first in the future, thanks much. Please see Wikipedia:Requested moves. dawnleelynn (talk) 17:20, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
Yes, right I can see it, just not edit it. Thanks though. I just sent a message to Yoninah, but she may not be active this late. If she doesn't reply within an hour, I have others I can ask. dawnleelynn (talk) 00:03, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
Okay, try reading that section sometime and see how it consistently talks about content in the body of the article from top to bottom. From the Lead Section down to Authority Control. It's talking about how to address people in the article itself. First it talks about how to address them at the first mention, then in reoccurring mentions, etc. It talks about how they should be addressed in the lead sentence, etc.
From that same section you quoted me, here's another quote right after that: "In article text, a space after an initial (or an initial and a full point) and before another initial should be a non-breaking space: J. R. R. Tolkien (or use the template). This even works inside links: J. R. R. Tolkien, though only with markup, not the template."
Notice it says, "In article text" what more can be said. This bit applies to article text, not to article titles. dawnleelynn (talk) 17:18, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Let me begin by thanking you for your contributions on the page. However, I do have a question/query. Please let me know why you have placed a redirect on the original page/title. Is it because the acronym of the company is irrelevant in the title? If not, would you please elaborate? Also, in case this is how it must be done, what should be done to the other page? Should it be nominated for deletion because it has no value now. Please let me know. Thank you in advance. Floyd1965 ( talk) 08:32, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi Vycl1994,
Can help to expand the biography of Justin Huang? Parts which are still missing/incomplete are his early career life (after graduation before entering politics at National Assembly), his general works during his tenure in Legislative Yuan (i've added all of his 3 legislative election results for easy navigation/timeline-based sections), his detailed works during Taitung County Magistrate (as in what policies he proposed and works carried out during his terms). We need to fully write this one first before focusing on any of his scandals as suggested by other editors in the talk page of that article regarding the Miramar Resort thingy. I've made many deletion/re-writing on that article in which not everyone can fully accept such reasoning. Chongkian ( talk) 04:39, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi Vycl1994,
I've just created this article named Jinjiang–Kinmen Pipeline, another cross-strait relations's milestone in terms of joint-project development (after the submarine telecommunication cable construction between Kinmen and Xiamen in 2013). However, I couldn't really find what is the official name (Taiwan's or Mainland China's version) of this project in zh language, so I just choose Jinjiang-Kinmen Pipeline, putting the origin and destination city/town's name of the pipeline. You have any idea or information for this naming in zh? Thanks Chongkian ( talk) 00:42, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
