Re: Minangkabau
editEven though a cited content is generally better than a non cited source, we have to weigh the validity of the source cited. In the case of ^ Davis, Carol (1995). "Hierarchy or complementarity? Gendered expressions of Minangkabau adat". Indonesia and the Malay World 23 (67): 273–292. doi:10.1080/03062849508729853. , the author did not visit the places that she wrote about and therefore the book is of low credibility. Another thing to consider is that when we write about oral traditions, we have to keep what we write as closely matching the actual oral tradition as possible; no version of oral tradition exists that says Malin Kundang's ship was tossed to rocks; all versions says that he and the ship was turned to stone, even though some says that his wife and attendants also turned to stone. The fact is that there is a site called "Batu Malin Kundang" in Air Manis and it is part of the legend, regardless of whether or not that stone is human made or nature made. Ingxiong (talk) 05:34, 27 March 2012 (UTC)ingxiong
When we talk about folk lore, oral traditions and anything that is Local in nature, it is of a high relevance whether an author has actually visited that locality. For example, I have never been to China, therefore even if I wrote a lengthy journal / review / article / book or whatever about oral traditions of China, for example Hua Mulan, then my writings is of a low credibility because that means I have not obtained my information from primary sources. Even if I have been to China, unless I have spent sufficient time in the area claimed to be her hometown and talk to some people who knows the oral traditions, my writing will still be of a low credibility. However, since you insist on citation then I will add citations from Balai Pustaka and eliminate all the less credible cited materials from the article.

Re:Re: A Question
editI guess my articles are already cited and do you already know from my articles mean? I make some articles about towns in Bangka Belitung and administrative village in Jakarta where have a lot of Indonesian Chinese. I want to give people know about Indonesia.
Re:A Question
editBoth of deleting and editing is same as i meant right? I guess, my added article is already suitable for Wikipedia standart. It is not realiabe reason if you removed the added article. If you guess i make mistake in english, why don't you edit that one to become clear, don't remove that. Like my see also in my articles, you should not erased that, but you should change to more relevant.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Calvin Ho Jiang Lim (talk • contribs) 23:24, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Bemo, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Bemo provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Bemo, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Patent nonsense
editYou tagged the articles on Madiun Stadium, Gelora Bung Tomo, and Bukittinggi Airport as patent nonsense. While I have no idea whether these articles were true or accurate, they did not constitute patent nonsense as that term is used in Wikipedia. They looked like perfectly normal articles about stadiums and an airport, respectively. Please don't overuse the {{db-nonsense}} tag. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 07:58, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Madiun Stadium, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Indonesia project...
editHello there. Thanks for your efforts cleaning up the hoaxes - what a drag. Seriously, what is wrong with some people?
I’ve been trying to get some important articles sorted out – at least as much as I can. See Suharto and East Timor (no, not necessarily together!). I redid Suharto's lead - it needs a bit more work, but the next step will be the article itself.
Also, there’s discussion about the name of Indonesian Revolution of 1998 at that article’s talk page (also see Satu Suro’s talk page for some background - if he hasn't already done his daily archive, lol). Please add you suggestions. The proposed Downfall of Suharto is better than the existing, but not perfect. We want something that will take into account the 96 to, say 2000 transitions. regards --Merbabu (talk) 01:06, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Infobox Islands
editWithout the additional colors for the country titles, and without a keyword actually indicating it is the name of a country it is really confusing. ~RayLast «Talk!» 04:05, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Why? The country label is centered. You have the flag next to the name. If there are multiple countries they are separated by a horizontal line. If you look at the actual articles using the template (eg. [[1]]), it doesn't seem confusing at all. I don't see what the problem is. (Caniago (talk) 06:44, 10 February 2008 (UTC))
- How do you even know it's a country. It doesn't have the country label on it either. It could easily be some kind of state with its most populous city listed underneath. ~RayLast «Talk!» 13:35, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
- What it is doesn't matter, its a title for the section and its meaning is implicit within the context of the section. Show me an example article where there is any confusion. (Caniago (talk) 13:49, 11 February 2008 (UTC))

coor title revert
editYou reverted my change to Pontianak, Indonesia (diff). Why? All I did was add a coor title tag, which is standard for articles on cities all round the world. Was there some problem with it? --David Edgar (talk) 18:54, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- The coordinates already exist in the infobox on that page. There is no need to duplicate the same information twice. Please see [[2]] for more info, specifically "As of August 2007, there are several different high-level ways of entering coordinates, with no clear consensus on the best way.". (Caniago (talk) 19:33, 20 February 2008 (UTC))
- Yes, I saw they were already in the infobox, but this is also the case for most other cities - for example New York City, London and Shanghai. I think it makes it clearer to have it the information here too, especially as the coordinates are particularly significant. --David Edgar (talk) 19:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
- Please see the page I quoted above. There is no WP policy on how coordinates should be displayed. Repeating the information twice in close proximity on the page is just silly. Just because some other city pages do it that way doesn't make it right. (Caniago (talk) 23:50, 20 February 2008 (UTC))

Ethnoreligious
editReligion is not a compulsory trait in defining an "ethnic group", unlike any ethnoreligious group. U cant claim that all Tamil people are Hindus, all Javanese ppl as Muslims, all Arabs are Muslims. Because there are Christian Tamils, Javanese, and even Arabs. But Malaysian Malays are all, always, Muslims. As defined in the constitution. There are also article written about it: [3]. I think one of us misunderstands the meaning of ethnoreligious. Is it u or me? kawaputratorque 06:46, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Hope you don't mind a butt in here Caniago, "Malaysian Malays = Muslims" is simply the Malaysian govt's definition. It may be the only legal or official Malaysian definition but that that doesn't mean it's the correct, or the sole definition. If someone is born a Malay, is a Malaysian national, and is Muslim, and they choose to change religion they are still Malaysian, Malay, just not Muslim - it doesn't matter whether it's a breach of the constitution. --Merbabu (talk) 08:17, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- Yes they are still ethnic Malay no doubt, but they cease to become a Malaysian Malay. ie: if they convert out of Islam they cease to be a Malay as defined by the constitution. Im not claiming that an ethnic Malay is an ethnoreligious group, im saying that a Malaysian Malay is an ethnoreligious group. Isnt that what this article is about: Malay as defined by the constitution? kawaputratorque 08:58, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
- If you have a reference which states Malaysian "Malays" as defined in Malaysian law is a ethnoreligious group then add a sentence in the article saying so. Please don't add it to the "See also" section, it not appropriate since the ethnoreligious article contains no information specifically about Malaysian Malays. (Caniago (talk) 14:04, 22 February 2008 (UTC))

{{Infobox Islands}} revert
editHi,
The point in making these changes "for coding simplicity" is that it is then trivial to fix things if they get "screwed up". Can you explain what was wrong with the appearance which justified a revert? If so, I'll attempt to fix it in the new code layout. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 11:26, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
- Let me turn that question around. What was wrong with the old layout, setup by a few people, which justified you coming along and deciding without any discussion that you should just radically alter it and in the process breaking numerous pages? (Caniago (talk) 12:23, 24 August 2008 (UTC))
- Read WP:BB. The changes were for the sake of future maintainability, ease of editing, project consistency and interoperability. There shouldn't have been any fallout. If you can identify anything which doesn't work in the new layout, I'd be happy to fix it. I can hardly be expected to do so if you can't give me actual examples of what "broke". Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 14:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
- I think you really need to read WP:BB - "Although it is generally fine to be bold in updating articles, it is easier to cause problems in other namespaces by editing without due care. The admonition "but do not be reckless" is especially important in other namespaces. Being bold in updating or creating categories and templates can have far reaching consequences. This is because category changes – and even more so template changes – can affect a large number of pages with a single edit. Templates, moreover, may have complex source code that can easily be broken by untested changes (which can fortunately be corrected with a single revert). Because of these concerns, many heavily used templates are indefinitely protected from editing. Before editing templates or categories, consider proposing any changes on the associated talk pages and announcing the proposed change on pages of appropriate WikiProjects.". You did break the pages using this template and in my opinion degrade the visual appearance of the template. You should not be directly making major changes directly to templates used by hundreds of pages without consensus and testing the changes actually work. (Caniago (talk) 15:00, 24 August 2008 (UTC))

Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 14:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
- The changes were hardly "reckless" - I'm an experienced template coder. The word "consider" implies that making edits to templates without first getting the blessing of involved WikiProjects is not verboten. The changes sat unmolested for over three weeks without any complaints. If you aren't prepared to actually tell me what "broke" (which implies there's something more than personal aesthetics in play here) then I can't really accept that you have a point here. If we got off on the wrong foot here then I apologise, but you haven't given me anything to work with. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 15:11, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'd just really appreaciate if next time before making major visual changes to templates used by lots of pages you firstly communicated with the people who have worked on it what you are planning on doing. Secondly, it would be great if you took the approach recommended on [[5]], that is, make your changes in your own sandboxed version of the template first before doing some testing and then merging the changes in. My specific concerns with your changes were: 1. lots of ugly lines added between rows. 2. some fields of the template not working such as "country largest city". Everything seems ok now.

editI firstly appologize for mistakes done by me.
I see other country's articles on en.wiki are so very much and colourful in words and images, once somebody clicks the article, very much information he/she will get.

Why not read the economy section of the article, and the supporting references provided. It’s a question of the netural point of view.

Deletion
editExperienced editors are, I'm afraid, bound by the same rules as newbies. The article gave no indication of how she met the notability guidelines, and in fact had no sources at all, so it's a clear no-discussion speedy. jimfbleak (talk) 18:24, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
- I wasn't "nominating" for AFD, just speedy deleting. You querying how CSD works (rather than just why your article was deleted), so there is probably a more appropriate forum if you want a change in procedures which would effectively make all non-notable good faith articles go through AfD instead of CSD. I'll put the text here so you can work on it before reposting. jimfbleak (talk) 20:07, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Indonesia layout
editWould you please at least give some kind of explanation in your edit summary instead of simply undoing the edit with no explanation? That is very annoying to me and I'm sure other people. And I've noticed you've done this in the past on this article, for example deleting templates other editors have placed on the bottom. Just because this article is featured doesn't mean it can't change. Anyway, here is what I did:
1. I moved the navigational template in the "see also" section to the bottom of the article and replaced it with List of Indonesia-related topics, Outline of Indonesia, and the portal link. WP:Layout recommends that layout, and beyond that, it's more compact, you can simply click on one of the links and be exposed to a lot more articles than the template has; navigational templates are always found at the bottom of articles, and the portal link is a lot more relevant in the see also section than the external links section.
2. Notes sections are usually above reference ones in most articles, and it's also helpful to make them both their own sections just in case an editor wants to choose one in the table of contents, I'm not sure why this change is a big deal, but if you want to keep the current layout then that's not a big deal either
3. I alphabetized the categories, again not sure why this would bother you but it's not like that is a big deal either
Basically I'd like the see also section changed as I explained above. What are your reasons for not wanting this change? LonelyMarble (talk) 15:45, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
- 1. The existing box of links in the See Also section provides the most useful and convenient list links related to Indonesia. There is no need to hide it at the bottom of the page, or to include links to indirect and poorly maintained lists of articles like List of Indonesia-related topics or Outline of Indonesia instead. This is the most useful presentation for the See Also section, providing one-click access to the most salient list of articles.
- 2. We organized the article this way to minimize the table of contents size. The size of the references section without the notes section doesn't justify its own top level header.
- 3. No objections.
- (Caniago (talk) 16:34, 16 March 2009 (UTC))
- 1. I guess a big reason I object to the box of links is because I like consistency and usually that is at the bottom, so it looks a little clunky to me. But that's not a good reason to change it. The Outline article is a fairly new project so hopefully that article will be better organized and more helpful in the future, I added a link to that in the Indonesia template. I think most people know those boxes are at the bottom of the article so it's not exactly hiding, but okay, it's fine the way it is now.
- 2. I never really cared about how this was set up that much, I simply changed it to the way the majority of articles are set up. I think the reason Notes are usually above References is because if you click a citation in the article and get down to the Note about it, people are probably more likely to scroll further down to find the reference than further up, but this is a pretty non-issue. Also, since these sections are already subsections you aren't really saving any table of contents size, but the current layout is fine with me.
- 3. Mainly I just like a consistent organization and layout for everything, I wasn't trying to change any big style concerns. I'll just alphabetize the categories and that's it. LonelyMarble (talk) 23:15, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Indonesia
editWhy do you consider the revert of my edit that you did to be superior? Other countries, such as Australia, New Zealand and the United States all have all the templates grouped together at the bottom. It is unusual to find the template you placed in the See also section in that location. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 00:34, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

WP:MOS#IMAGES...
editApparently the MOS has been changed to discourage non-forced (ie, default 180px) pixel size. My reading is that it's now a free-for-all between 100px-400px.

Categories on Indonesia
editYou seemed to remove the categories I'd added (they were previously absent due to a misunderstanding of the categorization rules, on the grounds that they were on Category:Indonesia - I was correcting this error, see WP:EPON). I don't know if you consider any of these categories unsuitable - if so, please remove only the unsuitable ones (I'm restoring all of them for now).--Kotniski (talk) 16:52, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
- I don't understand - I tried to talk to you on your talk page, yet you reply with another revert and a confusing edit summary. Why do these categories "waste space" or fail to "add value" any more than the other categories do? Why should this country's article be excluded from these categories?--Kotniski (talk) 17:01, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
Bangkalan Regency
editBy the way, you could have just asked me to switch back to the old template rather than blindly reverting it. Your edits have resulted in dozens of garbled pages like this one here. I am going through and cleaning up the massive mess right now. Thanks. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 17:37, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
Nganjuk
editDo you have a source for the change in Regency area you made in this edit? Before your edit, it was 1,224.33 km2. After your edit it was 122,433 km2, which is a pretty big change. According to http://www.eastjava.com/plan/eng/ekab-nganjuk.html it's 1,224.33 km2. Plastikspork ―Œ(talk) 17:55, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
one more for your list?
editWould you take a look at Languages of Indonesia which I updated as carefully as I could based on www.ethnologue.com
However, there are gray areas in regard to definitions of dialect, especially items like "Jambi Malay" rather than "Jambi language". Thanks. Martindo (talk) 04:04, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
As I mentioned on the talk page, I expanded the stated article scope to include both the Malay Race and the ethnic group as it's clear that the groups being mentioned are based on a broader definition. I'm not saying this is the preferred definition, and I have no reliable references. I simply wanted to remove the fundamental contradictions from the article - as a first step. Your input would be appreciated, but as long as consistency remains in the article then relevance and referencing to reliable sources can be handled later and are not the most pressing issue on WP right now. --Merbabu (talk) 02:07, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
Jakarta
editHey thanks for your edit on the Museums in Jakarta. I agree with the result, although I was trying to do it a bit more gently - but, you saved me work! It would be good if you can keep an eye on the article too. Some unusual ideas about how to develop it are floating around. --Merbabu (talk) 04:40, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Opinion on Chinese Indonesian
editHello Caniago, I noticed that you have been one of the top contributors to the article Chinese Indonesian. I've taken up the task of rewriting the article from scratch and would appreciate any input you have on structure, content, images, sources, etc. Keep in mind that the current draft is still in its early stages, and much work is needed to reconstruct the text while eliminating original research and speculative information. I am doing my best to keep as much information as possible and using the sources already listed while seeking others. Feel free to put it on your watchlist if you are interested in monitoring its progress. Thanks again your previous contributions. Arsonal (talk) 02:34, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

- The English writing is terrible. The factual accuracy of the etymology is questionable or wrong. Undue weight is given to the PDRI. I don't have time to fix any of these problems so the article is better without these changes. (Caniago (talk) 00:10, 20 March 2010 (UTC))

editYou currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Pariangan. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Please stop the disruption, otherwise you may be blocked from editing. Shadowjams (talk) 21:24, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Fort de Kock in 1826.jpg
editThank you for uploading File:Fort de Kock in 1826.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear.

If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next seven days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
