Hello, Koyn:
I would like to say a few words about your following comment @ Vfd.
- .... Why do we always care what other people think of China? ---yACHT nAVEL 23:39, 24 May 2004 (UTC)
I have been puzzled and a bit saddened by this comment. Although every human being regardless of origins does have right to express hirself, we (yes I am using "we", because I am a bit Chinese) do care what other people think of China. We certainly don't want other people criticizing behind us and the Chinese (people) as a whole that we are rude, dirty, slit-eyed or like to kill our friends and comrades just for food (i.e. cannibalism). Tomchiukc @ Chinese wikipedia expressed his frustration while helping out anonymously at Korean wiki against a Chinese vandalbot. He was wrongly accused of either supporting or even participating in the vandalism just because he was an anonymous Chinese; he was banned at the end.
Nanshu was known from his previous contributions that, according to Menchi, "His intent is not just anti-Chinese. Nanshu is obssessed with insidiously or openly insulting the history and culture of any "ex-Japanese colonies". A former Canadian Wikipedian interested in Korea informed me on several occasions that Nanshu was anti-Korean and actually composed an entire website on that defamatory theme, e.g., Talk:Names of Korea#External website content. " Can we just let this kind of person fooling around just because of our "Why do we always care what other people think of China ?" mentality? It sounds quite "Ah Q". Here is another example at an online Romance of the Three Kingdoms game [1].
Or as Menchi said, "Don't take it personally. It's actually quite funny seeing how desperate this little sick colonialist is, isn't it? Yeah...a bit hilarious. I mean, c'mon, the Insane Japanese Occupation has been over for ages! That's so last century. Get over it! Gee....".
Anyhow I have expressed my point. Thanks for reading. Ktsquare (talk) 04:48, 26 May 2004 (UTC)
Thanks[edit]
Hi. Thanks for the kind words about my photographs. I have actually visited China - back in 2000, I travelled from Beijing down to Hong Kong... My photographs of that trip aren't that great though - I just had a little point-and-click camera. Some of the photos are on my website here.
I had a great time in China, and would definitely like to go back one day... but there are still lots of other places in the world that I haven't been to, that I want to get to first! - MykReeve 22:20, 9 Jun 2004 (UTC)
Article Licensing[edit]
Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:
- Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
- Multi-Licensing Guide
- Free the Rambot Articles Project
To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:
- Option 1
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
OR
- Option 2
- I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
- {{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}
Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
A discussion has begun about whether the article Qinqiang, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Qinqiang until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Sven Manguard Talk 21:13, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
Your account will be renamed[edit]
Hello,
The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.
Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Koyn. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Koyn~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.
Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Yours,
Keegan Peterzell

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
