Manhua comments
Thanks so much for your time answering my questions. Words' meanings can get so changed around when we use them in English that I didn't to be accidentally insulting anyone by calling Singaporean comics "manhua," and wanted to make sure I understood how things stood organizationally. Thanks again! --hamu♥hamu (TALK) 03:30, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- The now-common usage of the word "manga" is what's sparked all this. It's used in a very general sense by publishing companies (of multiple languages) to mean all "Asian-style" comics; in Japan it's used for all comics, regardless of origin; but Western anime & manga fans (including the Wikiproject Anime & Manga) want it used only for things of Japanese origin or even of foreign origin if they happened to be pubished in Japan first. It's a huge mess. :) Thanks again!--hamu♥hamu (TALK) 03:57, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- I apologize for being remiss in thanking you for the extra info you provided the other day about product arrangement at Kinokuniya. Just gets more confusing every day, doesn't it. As long as it's still "acceptable" to consider native Singporean comics a type of manhua in addition to calling them "Singaporean comics", we should be okay -- I hope! :) --hamu♥hamu (TALK) 20:55, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
Re:Luan Da
Thank you ever so very much! These will be an enormous help. Nousernamesleft (talk) 22:10, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
- Hey, Jappalang, could you tell me about the reliability of these sources? They contradict several sources I hold in the highest regard (including primary sources) in several places, and I'm not sure what to make of it. I have a text file draft on my computer of the finished product using the sources you gave, but I'm not sure which parts should make their way into the actual article. Nousernamesleft (talk) 02:37, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

AMX-30E Copyedit
Hey, sorry I didn't respond to you before. Now that I have time again I'm going to put the article back through FAC, but before I do I will implement the edits you thought would improve the article and try to work it in without loss of data. If you'd like, once these edits are made I can warn you here and we can discuss further edits. Thank you for taking the time to look over the article, though!

Toa Payoh Murder Case
Regarding the inclusion of the trivia segment, actually news accounts tell of multiple visits, shock therapy and updated case notes said she drank his blood twice. The point is significant since it had a few headlines of its own [1]. The case is not being reported on because it is still in (extended) recess and the verdict is not out yet. I am currently creating a page for the case but its still WIP as there is a pile of info to go through. Eventually the two pages will be cross linked anyway so its informative to have that in an existing page first. Zhanzhao (talk) 01:04, 13 January 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply. Actually I thought it would be relevant. If I could more details about Adrian Lim's other "clients", I would have made it a whole section by itself. Unfortunately most of his "clients" were either not named nor infamouse enough (with the exception of his 2 wives and Amutha Valli), so I simply put in under the trivia section.

Regarding Maryland and Virginia Rifle Regiment multi-column Notes
I need your assistance. Using the script, reflist|colwidth=40em, allows the multi-column format of my Notes section to adjust to monitors of different sizes in Mozilla Firefox, my preferred browser. However, it doesn't work in Internet Explorer, where the Notes are in one long column. Is there a way to present the Notes in multiple columns in all Internet browsers and auto-adjust to all monitor sizes? Thanks very much. Tfhentz (talk) 16:21, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
Toa Payoh ritual murders
On closer reading I concede your point on the needles (those were some pretty dense victims...), but I continue to object to "Pragngan". See Talk:Toa_Payoh_ritual_murders#.22Siamese_sex_god_Pragngan.22. Jpatokal (talk) 11:29, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
Dear Jappalang,
I'd just like to let you know that I've completed the Esperanto translation of your fascinating article about Toa Payoh ritual murders. It should now be promoted to featured status within a week or so in our own Wikipedia. I really enjoyed working on it and I hope you'll keep up the great work !

Project Sylpheed Composer Edits
Ok, what is your criteria for notable composers? If it is a greater work ratio, then your listing is off. Takahiro Nishi was the game's sound director and, along with Kenichiro Fukui, composed and arranged more than half the soundtrack. Junya Nakano and Kumi Tanioka should not be included, as they did not contribute enough to be 'worthwhile' by your definition. I'm going to remove both of them and add Nishi as per the guidelines 'you' enforced. Consider doing some actual research beforehand.Raizen1984 (talk) 04:08, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Hi! Nah I've no objection to readding it if consensus exists, I just habitually remove unofficial links from articles. Sorry for screwing up! Thanks! Fin©™ 07:59, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
This is a new category that is being populated by ListasBot. It's pages that are on the list of Biography articles without listas parameter, but where ListasBot can't find the WPBiography tag in the page. It's basically a list of pages that need some human attention to figure out why they're on the list, but don't have the WPBiography tag. In this case, yes, it may have something to do with the fact that Adrian Lim redirects to Toa Payoh ritual murders. Thanks, Matt (talk) 02:22, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Battle of Bosworth Field edits
I have no objections to the story of Rhys's shuffling with the letter of his vow being deleted from the article on the Battle of Bosworth Field. I did mention it merely as an aside. I agree that most historians don't mention the story, but Winnie evidently had it from somewhere. I'll try and create an article on Rhys some time. A good source would be Griffith, Ralph A.

Battle of Bosworth Field
Thanks for your note, and good to hear from you. I'd be happy to take a look at the article, though it's unlikely to be soon (could even be a couple of months!). I'll try to give it a quick skim through in the next few days though. EyeSerenetalk 08:30, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Noted ;) I've almost finished with 11th Airborne Division, so I'll take a look soon. I notice that Maralia's been on the case already, so I doubt there will be much wrong. EyeSerenetalk 16:23, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't get much time over the weekend, but I'm having a quick sweep through now (I'm trying hard not to get too hands-on, though sometimes I can't help myself!) Just one question - weren't 'groups' referred to as 'battles' in that period? EyeSerenetalk 11:39, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I thought that might be why you hadn't used it, though I believe it's our duty to educate as well as inform. Would you object to a mention somewhere in the article (with appropriate explanation)? EyeSerenetalk 12:36, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think a total replacement is warranted by any means, but it's still worth noting the correct term. I've mentioned it in passing in the lead and will use the term sparingly further down; do you think this is enough? A footnote could be a good alternative, but obviously that would need a specific source (which I may be able to supply if I can dig through my books when I get home this evening!) EyeSerenetalk 13:43, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Toa Payoh ritual murders
FYI, the first police officer at scene was from Toa Payoh police station, the first senior investigation officer at scene was also from Toa Payoh police station. After the arrest was made, the case was subsequently handed over to the Special Investigation Section (SIS) of CID (from its old Robinson Road HQ), which specializes in the investigations of kidnap and homicide cases. Hope this makes thing clear for you, thank you. --Dave1185 (talk) 10:45, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

Freelancer article: Discovery mod mention
I'm the author of Discovery mod for FL, and hardly the right person to edit it back onto the Freelancer (video game), but it's kind of strange that the only sentence dedicated to Freelancer mods now lack one of the most popular ones (and, judging by multiplayer server statistics, the most popular one) which is also still in active development, unlike The Next Generation, for example.
Some sources:
- Discovery downloads at ModDB: http://www.moddb.com/mods/discovery-freelancer/downloads
- which are also mirrored on FileFront with over 80,000 DLs: http://www.filefront.com/listing/pub2/Freelancer/Modifications/Discovery-Freelancer
- Discovery downloads at FilePlanet: http://www.fileplanet.com/search.aspx?searchtype=2&q=discovery+freelancer
- Discovery receiving Mod of the Year (Simulation genre) award on ModDB, year 2006: http://www.moddb.com/features/mods-of-2006-players-choice/5
- The mod was also mentioned among the best FL mods in one of the last years' PC Gamer UK magazines, but the article is not available online.
So, I'm humbly asking to add Discovery back into the article, where it was before 13:40, 7 September 2009 edit.
Also, ideally, the article should get a separate section about mods, since Freelancer is currently alive only because of a number of high-quality mods and tools developed within the community. When all other moddable games not only have those sections, but also have multiple wikipedia pages dedicated to specific mods, Freelancer has none (attempts were taken earlier, but all rejected because of "lack of notability", which is far from truth). And I'm not talking only about my mod here, it's about all popular mods, of which Discovery, Crossfire and The Next Generation (mentioned on the page) are just part of. Thank you. Igiss (talk) 15:09, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
- About ModDB: Yes, I agree that the profile pages of mods cannot be considered reliable. Yet, the award that Discovery got (simulation genre'Mod of the Year-2006) was issued by editors, and the contest itself was mentioned in Wikipedia on the site's article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moddb). Plus, while I'm by no means requesting removal of other two remaining mods from the page, the reference links for them simply lead to download pages on GameSpot and GameArena, with one for Crossfire having the download disabled, and linking for more information to the mod's profile on ModDB (http://www.gamearena.com.au/downloads/details.php/freelancer-crossfire-mod-v17). Both references are description pages that duplicate the mods' descriptions that their authors provided in readme.txt files. How's the FilePlanet link for Discovery less trustworthy than that, for example?
- True that a separate mods page for Freelancer is not a viable option, yet, a small section in the Freelancer article could be. As for the PC World UK article, we will try to get one (the page you linked to doesn't have the issue in question). I don't have access to any US or English gaming magazines personally (living in Russia) so I can't verify such sources personally. I'll be trying to find any sources that could work, but this will take some time. For apparent reasons, though, we cannot expect that any of the newer mods for a relatively old game get high-profile media attention.Igiss (talk) 14:24, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
- Ok, I was directed to a source. There is a page on Freelancer mods in PCG194. (page 102) It featured: Freeworlds, Battlestar Galactica: Exodus, Discovery Freelancer, Shattered Worlds, and the Mod Manager. Will try to get exact quotes.Igiss (talk) 14:43, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

RE:Sword of Aragon
Fair enough. The Google Books was not for copy vio, rather that's just the impression I got from some editors. I was unaware Atari Magazines had permission to publish the content. Since that's the case, there are a few links I need to add to articles. :-) Thanks for the heads up. (Guyinblack25 talk 16:04, 2 December 2009 (UTC))
- FYI- Retro Gamer did a two part feature on the history of SSI in issues 42 (inception til about 87) and 43 (the rest of the history). I found issue 42 to be invaluable for their first game. Unfortunately though, I don't have issue 43. If you are able to track it down, it might have some development info for Sword of Aragon. (Guyinblack25 talk 16:24, 3 December 2009 (UTC))
- I thought the same thing about Strategic Simulations, Inc. after reading the first developer look back. It would be nice to see some company articles on here be quality ones, but I barely have time to do what little I'm doing now. :-\ Computer Gaming World issue 45 and Antic volume 4 issue 3 fill in some blanks about the company and the founder, Joel Billings. I found both issues at AtariMagazines.com if you're interested in working on the articles. (Guyinblack25 talk 15:20, 5 December 2009 (UTC))

I work on most classic games like that because I notice I have the sources to do so. Then I normally do quick edits on it because I've prepared most of the content offline in Notepad.

A topic could be a possibility. I must admit though, this article was my first exposure to the company. So I don't see myself working on the rest either. :-\ Who knows though. I'd help out if time permits and I can find sources. (Guyinblack25 talk 23:36, 25 February 2010 (UTC))

Hi. I'm extremely impressed with your articles on the TV series and book. It just goes to show that even obscure topics to most people can be very resourceful. It is greate so see a well sourced article with wide reading on such articles. If only more articles related to the Japanese anime/manga project were of a similar quality. Anyway, keep up the great work. I hope to see many more articles on Malaysian novels and TV. If it was just a one of dont' worry.

Gave you the highest rating I could, but I didn't cross it out on the Wiki Comics Project assessment request page, since I personally feel it deserves quite a bit higher, so the work for the assessment team on this page isn't over. In order to achieve higher, you need to request a peer review to move onto GA status. Once that's over, I can reevaluate it for A-class. Ask around on how to nominate. There are three others that are supposedly active for the Wiki Comics Project -- Luminum, Fram and Emperor -- and it's time for them to start earning their keep!

Hello,
I translated your nice article in French (see fr:Meurtres rituels de Toa Payoh). It could become a featured article on the French Wikipedia, but two details worry some contributors. I did not read the books used as references, so I turn to you for more informations.
- For the sentence (in a note) "Lim's customers also include superstitious men and elderly females, both of whom he cheated only of cash." : Is there any reference available ? Is it "John (1989), 17–19" ? If Lim did not sexually abuse them, is it because they were either old or not female ?
- There is a story of a loan between Lim and Lau's parents. Was it really a loan, or a sum of cash given by Lim to obtain forgiveness from Lau's parents ?

Towton links
There was a general issue of overlinking between google book links and other unnecessary links, which may mean that possibly some links were removed that should not have been. My rules of thumb go roughly:
- External links are used for verification of information (not of the existence of the book), so a link with no preview was automatically a goner.
- When a book was linked both for the book as a whole and for the chapter, it seemed quite redundant to have both, so the chapter link only was kept.
- I admit books that were linked only for the book as a whole were a bit of a judgement call. In the case at hand, I would probably consider having page links in the footnotes instead of a generic link that has no guarantees the pages in question can be read, especially for those books cited only once (but only, of course, if the pages in question can be read on Google Books). Me I usually put a reference used only once in a footnote, so I don't typically have to decide that.
So yeah, there is a method to the madness, even though it might not be 100% accurate.Circéus (talk) 15:36, 24 February 2011 (UTC)

I've been making occasional cuts to various sections where I think you can lose a few details without reducing the comprehensiveness. If you don't find them useful please revert them (either entirely or partially); I won't take offense, I just think it is easier to do it this way rather than copying it over to the PR and suggesting rewording there - saves trying to integrate it back in later.

Citation style at Middlesex (novel) and File:Portrait of Hervey White by Bolton Brown.jpg
Hi Jappalang. What's the difference between Sfn and Harvn? Is the difference merely in the edit window (the former is more compact), or is there a difference in the viewing window? I believe you should have asked me prior to making such a major change to the citation style. I prefer Harvn because I know how to use it but do not strongly object to your changes.
Would you check whether I am correct here with regard to File:Portrait of Hervey White by Bolton Brown.jpg? Cunard (talk) 01:58, 9 December 2011 (UTC)
