Panama (ad system)

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Panama (ad system), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Deiz talk 14:54, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Scrolling references/notes

Hi there. I notice you changed the reference/notes sections on Singapore and Los Angeles, California to scrolling style. However, this is not encouraged as it causes all sorts of problems in readability, accessibility, printing, and site mirroring and it is not guaranteed to work in all browsers. The relevant guideline can be found here. Thanks. Green Giant 22:01, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Western Islands Planning Area

I suggested and placed your hook on the next DYK update. I am concerned that someone may want to merge the article with Jurong Island. Your article is interesting, however. Archtransit (talk) 17:56, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, noted. I doubt merging the article with Jurong Island will be a good idea. There are still some islands in the Western Island Planning Area that is not part of Jurong Island Angcr (talk) 12:00, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
If there is indeed such a suggestion made, please do inform us. It makes zero sense to merge the two when Jurong Island is just one island out of plenty others in the Western Island Planning Area, dominant as it may be.--Huaiwei (talk) 15:20, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
Agreed. However, I don't exactly know what the other islands are. Angcr (talk) 06:29, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Marina Bay Financial Centre artist impression.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 13:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Re:Changes to list of tallest buildings in Singapore

Each of the formats will have their own pros and cons. The ones used in the examples you cite has the advantage of being asthetically pleasing, but do note that they can cause huge white spaces to appear should any larger screen sizes and/or resolution cause the tables to expand horizontally, causing the graphics to overrun the tables by varying degrees depending on screen size/resolution. There is no foolproof way of preventing this from happening using that format. The format I introduced is based on National airlines, and while it prevents users from viewing all graphics immediately, has the advantage of actually showing more clickable images on screen. The disadvantage is that it can take much longer to load on slower systems.--Huaiwei (talk) 13:07, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Okay, noted. I have increased the size of the images, to make it more visible to viewers. Thank you. Angcr (talk) 13:08, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale for Image:New Singapore downtown possible look.png

Thank you for uploading Image:New Singapore downtown possible look.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image under "fair use" may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content.

Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it might be deleted by adminstrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 15:33, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Paper umbrella

 

A tag has been placed on Paper umbrella requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, a rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. noq (talk) 17:02, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

 Hi. I went ahead and deleted the article. When your userspace draft is ready you can use the "move" tool to move it to the proper title in mainspace. If you need help I'd be happy to do it for you. Beeblebrox (talk) 17:51, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

Harriet E. Derman, 18th Legislative District (New Jersey)

You have marked this DYK nomination as verified. However, my character counter consistently gives 204 as the length of the hook, which is over the 200 character limit. Sorry, but I have un-checked the entry for now. Could you take another look? It could be that the character counter I am using (this one[1]) is screwy. Also, I am not sure about the protocol of including two articles in the same DYK entry. Is this allowed? I wanted to double-check this point. Nsk92 (talk) 16:54, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry, never mind, I was counting the characters incorrectly. I also got advice from others that double hooks are allowed. Marked again as verified. Nsk92 (talk) 17:15, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

I have stricken the first hook at the nomination page, the second hook is fine, and, yes, actually better. The 3000 mile wall comment is a verbatim, I have provided a link to p415 of Carruther's Unknown Mongolia, the 3000 miles refers to the entire chain, including the Altai mountains, the Tien Shan and so forth, of which the Dzungarian Alatau is only the immediately local portion.

Thanks for the help. μηδείς (talk) 16:57, 14 July 2010 (UTC)
