John Ling

I propose that you go ahead and get the John Ling article removed completely. It is clear that he and his supporters have been quite a nuisance. I can't believe you've allowed this prick to run around for so long with no consequences. He flaunts Wikipedia rules with no regard.

Re: Citation

Hi Hafiz, yes you are right about Southeast Asia history. Anyway I need to show a map of the Kambuja traders coming to Gangga Negara, do you have a good map on this? L joo 13:06, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Malay Wikipedia Embassy Up!

Just thought I would forward a message to you since it seems that you are the link between us at the :ms portal and the "other realm" hehe.

Boleh anda tolong Aiman? / Can you help Aiman?

Adakah anda boleh menolong Aiman abmajid? Dia memerlukan sedikit nasihat dan pertolongan kerana beliau/dia sentiasa meletakkan nama rencana (article) di dalam huraian suntingan (edit summary) apabila menyunting Wikipedia dan juga tidak menandakan gambar-gambarnya dengan teg hakcipta. Beliau/dia juga membuat rencana pendek tentang tempat-tempat di Kuala Lumpur dan perkara-perkara lain secara sambil-lewa saja (Rencana pendek yang sesuai boleh diberi teg yang dinamai "stub"). Ada beberapa buah gambar dan rencana yang telah dipadam kerana ia terlalu pendek, tiada teg hakcipta, dll. Hampir-hampir beliau/dia kena sekat. Boleh tak pertolongan diberi kepada beliau/dia? Jika anda ada soalan anda boleh memanggil saya di muka percakapan (talk page) saya. Terima kasih. --Bruin_rrss23 (talk) 09:39, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Can you please help Aiman abmajid? He needs a little a little advise and help because he always uses the article's name in the edit summary and also doesn't tag his images with one of the copyright tags. I know he simply creates articles about the locations in Kuala Lumpur and some other subjects (Good short articles can be stubbed). There are a few images and articles which have been deleted because it's too short, no copyright tag, etc. He almost got blocked! Can you give him some help? If you have any questions you can contact me on my talk page. Thank you. --Bruin_rrss23 (talk) 09:39, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Langkasuka

Hi Hafiz, I translated accordingly from the Wiki-Chinese-Langkasuka page, I believe there's no special reason you must delete it. I can read Chinese Wiki pages, so I can help to add in some viewpoints where English pages missing. Anyway thanks. L joo 16:24, 29 June 2006 (UTC)

Malayan Tiger

Hi, you uploaded this picture: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:P_tigris_jacksoni2.png do you want to upload it to the "Commons", too? So the picture can be used in the articels of the other languages, too. thanks!

Tahan Mountain Trekking Team

Hi, there is no basis to add a 'considered for deletion' tag. It should be merged. Moreover, it should be noted that there is sufficient data there for it to be in its own article. I do not quite understand why you put the tag there. Thx. Pls reply on the discussion page. -- mh 14:58, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Parameswara

"Sejarah Melayu alleges that Parameswara was a descendant of Alexander the Great of Macedonia."

Hi Hafiz, need a discussion with you. What do you have in mind about the line above, what possibilities could be? Are we not curious? ...since it came from Sejarah Melayu. L joo 13:52, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Ok, I mean, I am very curious why Sejarah Melayu claimed Parameswara descended from Alexander the Great without much explain. Why has to be Alexander? Why not Darius, Cyrus the Great, Genghiz Khan, etc? L joo 15:36, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

"In Islam, Alexander the Great is looked upon highly." "..remember of reading somewhere that Alexander was a believer of the Abrahamic tradition. So, it could be that Tun Sri Lanang was trying to justify the power of the Malaccan and subsequent Malay monarchs. A link to Alexander would elevate the status of the Malay monarch."

OK I see, thanks. And there was another Kedah Annals mentioned Alexander the Great as well, so could it be that Tun Sri Lanang 'copy' the idea? (Kedah Annals created much earlier, right?) L joo 15:55, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Earth, Hope you like the changes I made to the UM userbox. I'm a Spartan, but I was feeling charitable today. :) Wikipedia's all about collaboration anyway. Lovelac7 02:21, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

Hey

No problems at all! It was good to hear the perspective from a Malaysian, and hope it was interesting to hear the Australian perspective also. The only time we ever see Dr. M on TV here, is when he is crticising us, so of course we have a negative view. We don't hear about his good side.

Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Ketuanan Melayu

Hey, Ketuanan Melayu is now on FAC, and I thought it would be good to have another Malaysian's impression of the article, especially a Malay Malaysian. I'm worried that it might be too slanted in one direction or another, and also about its slightly unwieldy length. If you have any ideas for improving the article, let me know. Thanks! Johnleemk | Talk 14:51, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks, no problem. Concern's been expressed that the article might not be neutral, but we're having trouble assessing the extent of the problem (if any) because most people who are educated about the issue (or just know something about it) tend to be biased against it (e.g. me, Singaporean Wikipedians, etc.). If you could give your honest opinion/feedback, it would be nice. Still, please don't feel bothered. I hope you're enjoying your new job. :) Johnleemk | Talk 12:47, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks!

For the welcome AND the notice board link, I'll definitely be looking over it to try to add stuff or clean up. :) Paperdoll51 07:40, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Chinese Malaysian

I think it should be Chinese Malaysian because Chinese is an adjective describing the proper noun Malaysian. Anyway, I think our Malaysian nationality should be emphasised before our race. I know it can be confusing because 99.99% of Chinese in Malaysia will tell you it's Malaysian Chinese. I don't really mind. Wai Hong 06:13, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Malaysian Chinese

I suggest you to use Malaysian's Chinese because rather than use Chinese Malaysia or Malaysian Chinese, simply Chinese is from China, but to make clear it is Malaysian's Chinese. --Aleenf1 08:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Re: Malaysian Chinese and vice-versa

My suggestion is, let's just stick to the more popular term that's being used. There's not much use in arguing over an unambiguous term such as this, since both are acceptable. Take a chill pill dude. :) --Andylkl ^{[ talk! | c ]} 09:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

The reason for returning to Malaysian Chinese was because the original move was done improperly. You moved the page by cutting and pasting all the information back and forth between the two pages. The proper way to have moved it would have been to use the move function. Simply cutting and pasting deletes the page history and should not be done.--Yuje 16:57, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Malaysian news highlight

What, in your opinion, is the most important news event in September in Malaysia? 200,000 civil servants wanting a pay raise? The continuing beef with Mahathir? I'm not sure, so I'm asking, for the benefit of Portal:Current events/Southeast Asia. --Wisekwai 12:22, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm fine, thanks for asking. I think I'll go with the astronauts, since it's the one news event out of Malaysia that I know for sure is already covered on the page. The sugar shortage is interesting, though. In Thailand, the only kind of bulk sugar available in stores is brown sugar. Refined white sugar is still available in little packets, like for coffee. --Wisekwai 12:48, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Hello user 70.52.72.159. The parent directory says "To categorize countries per official language.

Wikiproject Indonesia Newsletter

New newsletter WikiProject Indonesia has grown incredibly! Two months ago, when the project was created, there were only two members, but now, we have got over 20 members, and hopefully it will keep increasing. Because of this large number, now WikiProject Indonesia has it's own newsletter, which will be delivered every week on Monday morning, around 22:00 (UTC). If you have any idea and suggestions, please do not hesitate to contribute to the next newsletters. We also need to find a better banner for the newsletter, so just post it on project's talk page. With your help, we can reach the even the impossible goal! "Bersatu kita teguh, bercerai kita runtuh" What's new? Several ways to increase the interactions between editors have been proposed. For now, the best solution would be the IRC Channel just for WikiProject Indonesia. Please go to #wikipedia-id if you have had experiences with IRC Channels. Or read the instructions at Wikipedia:IRC. Three new barnstar design have been proposed! If you find a great editor with excellent contributions to Indonesia-related articles, give him/her a barnstar, or maybe two or three! See the barnstars at Wikiproject Indonesia Barnstars.

Articles improvements The previous two weeks were maybe the best and tiring week for some of us. On the good side, we have got a new Good Article, which is Toraja. Congratulations for all editors who have involved in the expansion. Yet we have failed to get two Good Article status, which are Tourism in Indonesia and Indonesia. However with the spirit of 1945 we will always accomplish many things! Starting this week (October 17), the collaboration durations have been extended, so now we can collaborate to improve a particular article for two weeks straight. Please leave any recommendations or suggestions on the collaboration talk page. Collaboration Last week's collaboration: Indonesia Current collaboration: Communications in Indonesia Help choosing the next article for next fortnight's collaboration.

Hi Earth/Archive2! Starting today, the Indonesia Collaboration is Java. Come along and help make this an article worthy of the world’s greatest island. There’s a suggested to-do list on the the talk page to which you can add, or just pick a task.

WikiProject Indonesia Newsletter

The project so far... Last week, two more members have joined the project, and really boost the progress of articles editing. Danny Yee and Lestari, welcome to the project, hopefully you will enjoy your stay. So, we officially have got 26 members! More than 440 articles have been tagged with the WikiProject Indonesia template, well done to all editors who have contributed this far. Also, while copy-editing is a very useful thing to do, researching and expanding the article, or maybe one or two sections would be extremely useful, because it is the goal of the collaboration, expanding and getting a good article status. What's new? Several ways to increase the interactions between editors have been proposed. For now, the best solution would be the IRC Channel just for WikiProject Indonesia. Please go to #wikipedia-id if you have had experiences with IRC Channels. Or read the instructions at Wikipedia:IRC. For people who choose not to receive this newsletter, please add your name to this list. Instead of receiving this newsletter, the bot will only send you the link to a particular newsletter.

Articles improvements We have got another Good Article nomination! Congratulations to all editors, especially Indon, who have improved it significantly, maybe you can give six barnstars. So, with the nomination, we officially have had four good articles. Hopefully we can get plenty good articles in the future, or even featured articles. The last collaboration was not a huge success, the Pulau Dewata is still a "start" article and has not improved much. However, seems like the collaboration spirit is back and Java has improved gradually, thanks to all editors.

Hello there Earth/Archive2. For the next two weeks we have chosen >>>Indonesian War of Independence<<< for the Indonesia Collab. Also, please vote for the next fortnight.

He's been making some interesting edits to Malaysian articles lately. I'm not that much of a local history buff, so perhaps you could help me examine some of the claims he's making, and the information he's been removing? (For instance, he removed the Johor article's claim that it was one of two successors to the Melaka sultanate, together with Perak, so the article now suggests that the Johor sultanate was the sole successor of the Melaka sultanate.) If you're too busy, I understand, but I'm rather reluctant to touch anything without further knowledge of the situation. Johnleemk | Talk 17:54, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

British Malaya

Ok cool, I'm currently trying to finish off Federated Malay States for this last two days before flying back home. I reckon I can help you better if u have a good game plan on how to finish the pie.

In the mean time I'm trying to start a new project on historical Malacca, I've already finished Battle of Cape Rachado, and I have enough material to start on the city and fortress of Dutch Malacca (the fortress layout, defensive profile etc) thanks to the Dutch National Archive. So they'll be some new articles and a period of consolidating everything. That is if nobody goes ahead and starts to create one liner stub articles. And that seriously turns me off.

Jawi script status

In regards to Jawi script, Jawi script is part of Malay Language, and hence it is part of the official language of Malaysia. I have put jawi scripts in most cities as means of standardization. Chinese language does not have official status, not as much as Jawi itself. Please don't revert it. I have already discussed it with User:Matthew A. Lockhart in my talk page and his. Please do note. Thank you.

Cities' seals and flags

I noticed that most cities and towns were not granted seals on their own right but rather to the administrators (i.e DBKL, MPPJ, Putrajaya corporation, MBSA). Though the flags can be argued belonging to the cities (KL, Putrajaya, Ipoh) but with Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur instead of just Kuala Lumpur doesn't that demonstrate the point? Am I correct? Or are they actually cities/towns that have their own city seals? -- Bukhrin 17:52, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

I noticed you didn't manage to persuade other editors that this article was non-notable. After about half a year on WP, this article still lacks independent sources, so I've renominated it for deletion. Johnleemk | Talk 17:52, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Please help with Tunku Ismail Ibrahim

Hi! I am working on the article Tunku Ismail Ibrahim. As you are from Malaysia, can you please help me in explaining the concepts of Raja Muda and Tunku Mahkota. We need articles on these two (at least stubs). The information on the web is pretty much confusing for a non-Malaysian like me. So, it would be great if you could explain the terms and help in the expansion and improvement of the article in question. Thanks! --Vikas Kumar Ojha _{Talk to me!} 03:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

An article which you started, or significantly expanded, Kesatuan Melayu Muda, was selected for DYK!

On February 6, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Kesatuan Melayu Muda, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

Thanks for your contributions! Nishkid64 23:47, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

SUKMA

Please give your opinion on the title of the Sukma Games article? I feel that it should be Sukan Malaysia since SUKMA is an acronym.Wai Hong 03:24, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
