Singapore?

Hey, I'm Singaporean too! And may I ask why you placed a personal attack template on yourself?-- Tdxiang 03:13, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

• Yes. I'm the one featured on Digital Life. Happy editing!-- Tdxiang 04:07, 14 April 2007 (UTC)

Email

Hello, Chenzw. Did you receive my email regarding the meetup? :)-- Tdxiang 09:09, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

• Sure, no problem. Thanks for letting me know! By the way, the meetup page is at here. See you!-- Tdxiang 09:31, 30 April 2007 (UTC)

Okay, Chenzw. I removed the copy-paste content. In future, if anyone else copy-pastes content, please remove it. Copy-pasting is a copyright violation, even copy-pasting from the English Wikipedia is not allowed. Thanks!-- Tdxiang 02:40, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Whah??

I don't know what you mean, where did I add nonsense? Tony Blair 11:36, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

AfD causes ceased to exist

Please modify your vote in accord to current changes to "keep" status, because I already removed all causes of your objections from both PIE articles nominated to deletion. For proof look here: Schleicher's fable, The king and the god. Both articles no longer are copied, they are now heavily reworded to be different from main English wiki and has context according to Tygrrr hints. CBMIBM (talk) 10:55, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Reply

I would like a fresh start. I can reassure you I am not a blocked user here, nor a sockpuppet. -- Da Punk '95 (talk) 08:42, 23 February 2008 (UTC)

Template:Test1a

Not to be unfriendly or anything, but shouldn't the test1a template be a removing content template instead of the template that you made it? Razorflame 04:44, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for the barnstar!-- Lights  talk  12:37, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Your RfA

Hello there, Chenzw. Based on your RfA request and the votes accrued in it, I would like to suggest that you withdraw from your RfA and continue to do what you started to do earlier (mainly yesterday and Saturday). You are definitely a good candidate to become an administrator in the future, but for right now, I would suggest that you continue reverting vandalism and making pages for this Wikipedia. I'm not trying to be unfriendly or anything, but you have a few things that you could work on:

1. Inactivity-Looking at your contributions, I have seen many great edits that you've made in the past and over last weekend. You've started reverting vandalism and you've overall been a good help to the community. The only problem with this is that you've been largely inactive over the past many months. That is one of the main reasons why I oppose you becoming an administrator at this time. If you were to become more active and you were to continue doing what you did and have done in the past, I see no reason why you can't become an administrator in the future.

1. Low edit count- While most people frown upon this requirement, this is a necessary item that administrators must have in order to be good administrators. Whenever someone posts an RfA up on the page, I always look at their edit count using one of the edit counters on my userpage to see if they have a good amount of edits spread out over the major edit categories that define the Wikipedia project: Mainspace, Category, and Template. I generally like a candidate to have at least 700 or mroe Mainspace edits, 30 or more Category edits and at least 1 template edit (but more wouldn't hurt). I have not seen this from you. What I would suggest is to continue editing like you normally would. In doing so, you will eventually accrue the needed amount of edits in each category.

Because of these two big reasons, I have voted oppose for now. If you were to fix these problems that I've brought up using either the suggestions that I've given you, or through your own methods, I would definitely be happy for you to be an administrator. But until then... Razorflame 16:51, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Club

Hello. You created Club by copying some text from English Wikipedia; that part is not in "Simple" English, and needs to be rewritten. Could you please do it yourself?

Also, you forgot to add the article to a category, and add interwikis links to it. I did that for you; perhaps you should do it yourself with the articles you create from now on.

Have a good day, - Huji ^reply 09:05, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

St. Peter's

Since I have put up the inuse banner, then you can presume that the article is inuse! I really don't want someone else trying to cleanup the article while I am cleaning it up. You aren't aware of this, of course, but I havve just almost entirely rewritten the article on Wikipedia mand am right now simplifying what I myself have written. Amandajm (talk) 05:53, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

AWB

I added your name to the AWB access list, you should now be able to use it here. Try to remember have "minor edit" checked when making large numbers of changes quickly so that it is easier to hide them on New changes for other editors. -- Creol(talk) 23:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

You probably got an error or two using AWB earlier, when it attempted to talk to my server. I've fixed the bug now so it shouldn't happen again. --Kingboyk (talk) 15:25, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

WikiProject

Hi, Chen Z W, I noticed you are Singaporean and speak fluent Chinese and some Japanese and was wondering if you'd like to join my Simple WikiProject Asian Music? Even small contributions would be helpful. Thanks. Alexhl (talk) 09:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

It's OK if you don't make major changes. Like I said, even small contributions would be very helpful. Thanks for joining, Chenzw! Alexhl (talk) 12:59, 9 March 2008 (UTC)

WP:RFD

I notice you are not tagging articles for deletion correctly. Please put the tag at the start of the article, and remember to list the article at WP:RFD. Thanks. --Bärliner 09:52, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks a lot!

Thanks for puting Template:non on the spam page! I asked Barliner but there was no answer. Again, thanks! Claimgoal 5:32 PM, 16 March 2008 (AEDT)

No problem! Chenzw (talk ▪ changes) 07:33, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

Most wanted list

Instead of striking the blue links on my Most wanted article list, just go ahead and delete the blue links as needed. There is no reason to keep track of what is taken off of the list. -- Creol(talk) 06:50, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
