Speedy deletion nomination of Category;Singaporean financial businesspeople

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Category;Singaporean financial businesspeople 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.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. JetBlast (talk) 19:39, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 8

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Danny Yong, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Kenneth Griffin (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Category:Naturalized citizens of the People's Republic of China in Hong Kong

Please do not add or change content without verifying it by citing reliable sources, as you did to Category:Naturalised citizens of the People's Republic of China in Hong Kong. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Please do not add people to this category without sources. Your recent additions to this category are all inaccurate. People like Michael Miu or Tiffany Chen who were born in China (by PRC definition including Taiwan) are blatantly not "naturalized citizens" of the PRC, since they had PRC citizenship from birth. Others like Justin Lo or Michelle Ye have no sources in their article indicating that they have switched from U.S. to PRC nationality. 61.18.191.5 (talk) 08:23, 13 September 2012 (UTC)

People of Taiwanese decent

Hello, the numerous changes you have made to people with Taiwanese linkages changing them to Chinese decent is a potentially controversial edit. As such, I would encourage you to discuss such changes on the talk pages prior to making them. I have reverted several of the edits, particularly those with edit summaries which some may find offensive. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 15:59, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I was removing child categories in articles with people with Taiwanese descent. I did not remove the Category:American people of Taiwanese descent without any reason. It is a child category of Category:Taiwanese emigrants to the United States.Magellan Maestro (talk) 16:17, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

PETER SCHIFF ARTICLE

Magellan, you added "investor" to the first sentence, but there's no source for that, nor does Mr. Schiff ever refer to his own investments, or even whether he has any. Please revert that. Also, as long as you're cleaning up the categories please note that Mr. Schiff is not from New York City, so a few of those categories should come out.
