Repulic of China

It is pretty obvious Republic of China is commonly known as Taiwan, but not Chinese Taipei. Chinese Taipei is only used in very few occasions where using Taiwan is not allowed due to pressure from PRC. In most cases, Republic of China is known as Taiwan.

Wikipedia:Editor review/Nat.tang 2

Hello Nat, I reviewed you. Two points:

I am willing to write a recommendation for you at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship if you think you are ready for that.
I don't know when you last modified your talk page header, but you should rethink it. It's likely to scare away newcomers, and that's a bad idea. In particular, I don't like the idea of threatening to delete any unsigned comment. First of all, you can ask Hagermanbot (or whichever bot it is) to automatically sign such comments. Second, it's easy to forget to sign a comment; in those relatively rare cases, you can just check page history to see who it was. I also think the talk page header is too long. Think of the Internet slang: TL;DR (too long; didn't read). Kind of like the review I wrote for you, I guess.... :) Shalom ^Hello 03:06, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PPOL.

Thanks for pointing that out mate (I was actually asking Riana about that too). I'll not make that mistake again. ;) · AndonicO ^Talk 21:31, 25 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RFA nomination

Shalom would like to nominate you to become an administrator. Please visit Wikipedia:Requests for adminship to see what this process entails, and then contact Shalom to accept or decline the nomination. A page has been created for your nomination at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Nat. If you accept the nomination, you must formally state and sign your acceptance and answer the questions on that page. Once you have answered the questions, you may post your nomination for discussion, or request that your nominator do so.

I'll let you ask User:Folic Acid if you want a second nomination from him. It makes no difference to me. If you need help answering the questions or transcluding the RFA page where it needs to go, please ask. I wish you good luck. Shalom (Hello • Peace) 00:29, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nat, I've added a second nomination for you. I'm happy to modify it, too, if you think there are other examples of the TingMing saga that you think are better. Best of luck! --Folic Acid 13:12, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Best of luck! I'm hoping you pass, some opposition is just plain silly. Dihydrogen Monoxide (H₂O) 03:49, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ottawahetech

Dear Nat,

I am here because you have taken issue with an article I submited to Wikipedia. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Ottawahitech

I am a new "editor" and there are now three differnet Wikipedia official editors who have taken issue with my article. I thought I had successfully satisfied the first editor (JodyB) after putting in quite a bit of work, but it seems I was wrong. Another editor is now compaining about my "new and improved" article.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could visit my user page and help us sort out what the issues are, and who has the final say.

TIA

Montreal colonial architecture

the buildings on St-Paul are much smaller than the one that is captions as Montreal Colonial Architecture. I strongly suggest you delete this image completely from the Montreal Wikipedia entry. Texteditor 15:21, 1 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
