Hello, all. It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of ] proposal for an appreciation week to end on Misplaced Pages Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at ] where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors. Thank you for your attention. ] 20:42, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Vietnam's external link section is littered with websites that have only Vietnamese text. After removing one a while back, I was accused of trying to sweep these sites under the rug. My stance is that the content of the site is virtually irrelevant if nobody is able to read it. Less than 0.1% of people visiting the English version of Misplaced Pages can speak/read Vietnamese. The links have no place on the English WP site. This vocal minorty should feel free to paste these links all over the Vietnamese version.<br>
]
To support my case, please view the ] and ] articles. Every external link has an English version, as it should if it desires to be linked to here.
Hello WikiProject Southeast Asia:
I have not removed any links since being chastised, as it will most likely lead to an edit war. I've brought this up here in order to have a little back-up once this goes down, as I plan to remove the links in the near future. Thanks... ] 05:18, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't know how quickly we are managing to get things tagged, but I have run into a significant barrier. Several editors, possibly representative of many many more, disagree with myself (and likely/hopefully with many of you) on the purposes of WikiProjects, Project Banners, and the inclusion of various topics within the umbrella of "Southeast Asia".

Hello WikiProject Southeast Asia:


''']''' is holding a ''' month-long ]'''!<br /><br />
I have no intention of fanning the flames of the debate that's currently going on on my talk page, but I wanted to make you all aware of it, and to suggest that we perhaps start a discussion here to generate a consensus of strategy or standards as to how we are to work with other WikiProjects, such as WikiProject Indonesia - I don't know how representative these users are of the opinions of WP Indonesia as a whole, but he seems quite firmly against our "invasion" of his project's territory.

As far as I am aware, WP Myanmar/Burma and a number of the other related ones (Thai provinces, etc) seem to be perfectly happy being under our umbrella and working alongside us in a friendly and productive way. But, again, if this fellow's attitude is representative of some/most/many/all of the Indonesia editors' position on the issue, then something has to be done. Either we work it out and settle it somehow, or we simply ixnay Indonesia out of being covered by our project (which, I personally think is a bad idea).

== Pontian boat ==
The purposes and goals of our project and our attitude towards project banners seem fairly well-stated, and I think most WikiProjects agree for the most part on these types of things - why do WikiProjects exist, what purpose do they serve, etc. - but it would appear that some are simply not on our side. I'm not sure exactly what can be done about this, but I do think that we need to get moving on tagging and assessing more articles, and on figuring out how to best deal with attitudes like this.

Do we really need another project tag on indonesian articles?

::Adding extra project banners shouldn't hamper or interfere with your activities at all. All it is meant to do is to attract more attention from SEA users who can help you, and from users interested in Indonesia who can help the Project in other ways. I admit it is a little bit like overcategorization, but I really don't see the problem. If the lists of articles on the SEA project, whether they're stubs or requests, or whatever, and there are Indonesia-related topics on there, it will only help to get more people to work on and improve Indonesia-related articles. Yes? ] 10:37, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Nah - not from my experience at all - sorry to sound so cyncial - dont be suprised other member of the indonesian project try to hound you out as well - but i wont do that - our experience with ethnically prejudiced neighbours wasted a huge amount of wiki time to little positive effect. If you really want to deal with over-lapping categories and project boundaries you only have about another 4,000 articles to go... dont ever tell me i didnt warn you. I'd stick to singaproe or hong kong myself - sanity, good sense and good will to me do not relate to what you are doing. Maybe I owe you a round of bintang if you prove right, but I think duplicate project issues are a serious folly. Once a gain in good will and humour -cheers ]] 10:47, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

:::I don't know how many I was planning on tagging today or tomorrow... I was honestly just tagging anything I happened to come across.

::I don't think it should be an issue of whether or not it's manageable. A bot could do it. And if not, if people do it, so it'll take some time. That's all. Just as every article in WikiProject Shinto and WikiProject Anime & Manga falls under WikiProject Japan, so the same here.

::Nah dont worry - I'll probably get back to you much later about the project duplication issue - we have recently had a milhist template enthusiast broach Indonesian project sensitivities - I think I need to look at project/project things in other areas before I try to articulate or try to explain at any length my concerns about the issues - hey thanks for the speedy responses - will probably get back much later about it... I have no intenetion from my point of view to make anything political or big deal - its already happened - hence my serious reservations. I have been trying to appraise the whole indonesian project from the point of view of categories, articles, and areas of shortcomings - and having to cope with ''outside'' perceptions to me is a big issue - either military history (my talk on Kiril's talk page about the length of time it took to wait for the 'Indonesian Civil War' article to have such an ill informed title changed....), or a whole range of other things. Not to bother you about it though - if I ever get a handle on the issue I'll give you a tinkle to read whatever it is first - I'd appreciate your opinion. I got to get offline mnow - speak some other time. cheers ]] 10:49, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

::I've got to say I think your plan to add a regional project tag to country specific articles is crazy. What's the precedent for this? Do people tag articles relating to Germany, France, Sweden, etc with a European project tag, or Canada, US, Brazil, etc with an Amercia project tag? Why don't you go one step further an tag every article related to any country with an wiki project earth tag? Wikiprojects need to be a manageable size. Being too granular with project tags is pointless. Once an article has a country project tag (or multiple country tags), it is bleeding obvious which articles belong to specific regions. The point of these tags is to provide a rating to article quality and importance, so double rating across country projects and regional projects is redundant and contributes to an increased maintenance load for editors. We don't do something like this for stub tags, so why should it be done for project tags? (] 06:36, 5 March 2007 (UTC))
:::I agree with Michael - it's too big (too difficult for you) and too diverse (too difficult for those you might impinge on). My suggestion is rather than try and grab everything, why not grab only those article that do have a South East Asian (as a whole) focus. ie, ], ], etc. THis is much smaller, but a better idea. ] 07:50, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

:Um. Wow. I am amazed at how anti-WikiProjects you guys are, and how much we seem to disagree on the purpose of them.
#Whether or not it is too much work for me is completely irrelevant. I have no intention of tagging hundreds or thousands of articles on my own - as I said above, a bot could do it, or members of the community could work together to each do a little bit. That's what Misplaced Pages's about, after all - people working together to create something much larger and better and broader than any of us could do on our own.
#The point of adding project banners is not just to make it obvious what the article falls under, nor is it just about assessment. It is about creating easier, more concise ways to find things that fall under the categories of a given project. It's about creating pools of articles that can be considered together, under "Southeast Asian articles that need attention" or something like that. And it is about promoting the creation of a tighter community of people who work on similar things and can thus help each other out. People who didn't know the project existed, or what it does, or how it works, can find the link, find that there is a community which works on this type of article...
#If you restrict the Southeast Asian WikiProject only to those things that cover all of Southeast Asia, like ], you've completely defeated the purpose of the project, and deflated its effectiveness. That's like restricting WikiProject Theatre only to topics about theatre in general and stating that they don't deal with actors, plays, or playwrights. The same goes here. As an editor who is interested in the history and culture of Southeast Asia, I am just as interested in the Kings of Ayutthaya as the music of Indonesia, the art of Laos, the politics of Vietnam, the architecture of Cambodia, and the economy of Malaysia. ''What do we accomplish by not taking all of these things under the umbrella of a community that's interested in, and devoted to, these topics?''
#Finally, let me say that if you want so badly to not advertise Indonesian-related articles to a wider number of editors, then it sounds to me like you're trying to protect a given POV. I do not know anything about the instance to which you refer in saying that someone "broached Indonesian project sensitivities", but "sensitivities" sounds to me like something that needs to be breached in the interests of objectivity. Imagine if only pro-CCP editors worked on China-related articles. ] 10:15, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Please let me say that I am not anti-project, I am trying to handle over three - you are missing the point. IThere are editors in the Indonesia project who have no problem with 'guarding anything' -or objectivity - I suggest that this all gets moved to either the SEA project and or Indonesian noticeboards ]] 10:47, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

::Okay. I was thinking the same. Let me move it over to the SEA project discussion page. Any Indonesia project editors are of course welcome to comment there as well. ] 10:53, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
:::You said: '' I am just as interested in the Kings of Ayutthaya as the music of Indonesia, the art of Laos, the politics of Vietnam, the architecture of Cambodia, and the economy of Malaysia. What do we accomplish by not taking all of these things under the umbrella of a community that's interested in, and devoted to, these topics?''. let me ask you, what do you accomplish by putting them under one banner? As for trying to compare theatre and SE Asia, I'd suggest SE Asia and Human Artistic Endeavour would be a better comparison. THe scope is just to big and Malaysian economics has little relation to Laotian architecture.] 11:31, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

::::You are of course right that Malaysian economics has little to do with Laotian architecture. But Laotian architecture has a lot to do with that of Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos. And Indonesian traditional music has a lot to do with that of Malaysia, Thailand, and Burma. And Thai religion has a lot to do with religion in Laos and Cambodia. Given the absence of any WikiProject Thailand, WikiProject Laos, WikiProject Cambodia, etc, this WikiProject SouthEast Asia is just as well equipped to handle those topics as are the Architecture, World Music, and Buddhism WikiProjects. Yes, the project has a very broad scope, but so does WikiProject Military History, and WikiProject Visual arts, and they do alright. WikiProject China covers a huge geographic area, and over 4000 years of history, religion, art, theatre, literature, politics, economics, architecture, science & technology and societal topics, yet they too do fine to work together under one banner. The strong cultural and historical connections between the lands which are today the countries of Laos, Thailand, Indonesia etc cannot be denied, and until we have separate task forces for each of those countries, this is the best we have. It may not be the best - every project has its issues - but it's far from useless or pointless. ] 14:11, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
:::::::For me, you might have answered your own question there. Why not create smaller projects, to use your example, WikiProject SE Asian History, or SE Asian Cultural/Music/etc.??? That WOULD make sense. As you point out there are similarities between say economics of the countries, and also their art. Both between Vietnamese art and Indonesian economics. SE Asia History project would be good. ] 10:33, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
:::::I suppose the best solution to this is not that we attack and dismiss the SEA project, but that we work to create separate national projects. Now that I re-read it, I think I realize that that's essentially Michael's point. And I agree. The SEA project is useful for cross-cultural and cross-national standards and discussion, but ultimately, it is only for the lack of national projects that it assumes this overarching responsibility for all topics within those countries not covered. Does that cover it, pretty much? And does that sound fair? We can re-specify our goals as focusing on those countries which do not yet have their own dedicated WikiProjects, and as those appear, we can take a less directly involved role in the topics relating to those countries - just as WikiProject Japan doesn't concern itself directly with topics on anime, manga, or Shinto. ] 14:19, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
::::Yes, we are in agreement. I think the most valuable thing this project can do initially is to recruit some keen editors for each of the countries and help them setup a Wikiproject for their country (based upon the Indonesia wikiproject or whatever). Then, get them on the road to assessing articles relating to their countries. (] 17:10, 6 March 2007 (UTC))

===Random arbitrary break===
I sense here that the objection comes from Indonesian editors is merely management issues, not contents protection. I (myself) am surely be happy if somebody outside the project wants to join-in to improve Indonesia-related articles. I also agree with the SEA project that it wants to bring wider audience/editors to work on SEA articles, including Indonesia-related ones. I see now other projects (Disaster managements, Country project, City project, etc.) are actively including articles in which I don't really see that multi-project articles will degrade the quality. Only vandals and POV pushers will do so. Although I found SEA project particularly is a bit awkward, but that is okay and we can't prevent a new project is created, can we?. Anyway, our aim is actually the same, ]. If the SEA project can bring more Indonesia-related articles to FA, we will all have additional FA articles in our project, right? As for management issues, hmm..., I think issues such as tagging can be done independently without interfering each other. &mdash; ] (]) &mdash; 12:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm not anti-wiki-project at all, the more people improving the Indonesia articles the better. We should have a wiki-project for each country, but leave the SE project assessments for articles that truly span SE Asia. The SE asia project should summarize the state of each of the subprojects. Put hyperlinks to each of the country sub-projects and make the linkages between these projects as explicit as possible for collaboration, etc. The only issue I have is with the idea of multiple redundant assessments between the SE asia project and the country projects. However, this doesn't preclude people in the SE Asia project from working on one of the Indonesia articles as ''collaboration of the week'' for example. Your suggestion about using bots to tag articles indicates that there is an unnecessary redundancy that we really don't need. I don't see any presidents for this approach on Misplaced Pages. As for the comment about trying to protect a POV, well thats crazy, adding articles to a project assessment doesn't make it any easier or harder for people to find or edit them.

== Honorifics in article ==

Couldn't think of a particularly good place to put this, so I guess I'll offload my concerns here. I've noticed that a number of editors use honorifics when referring to people in articles. This is especially common in ]-related articles, because of the proliferation of titles and honorifics in the country. I always understood that using honorifics when referring to people by name was to be avoided; at the most, I would use the honorific the first time the name was mentioned, and after that simply refer to the person by name (e.g. "Lee" as opposed to "Sir John Lee"). This lack of consistency in usage of honorifics is troubling and often jarring when I read article that more than a few people have been working on. I then found that according to ], the WP convention for biographies is to use the full title the first time, and thereafter either refer to them by surname or by, e.g. "Sir John". Although the MoS is silent on how to treat honorifics in non-biographical articles, it does not seem particularly useful to me to be including titles with full names when referring to people. What do you guys think? ] | ] 04:24, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Women in Green's 5th Edit-a-thon

Hello WikiProject Southeast Asia:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in October 2023!

Running from October 1 to 31, 2023, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Around the World in 31 Days! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 31 countries (or broader international articles) by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!

Request for review: would anyone be able to help with reviewing a draft wikipedia page for Farisha Ishak?

Hi there

I created an article for Farisha Ishak, a Singaporean singer-songwriter who won the first season of the Final 1, and was signed to Hype Records. She then did hosting, acting, and advocacy work.

I created the article in January and it was quickly rejected. However, I made changes a few days later, but it has not been reviewed again since.

As this is the Wikiproject Southeast Asia page, so I was hoping someone may be able to help with getting the article reviewed?

Here is the link to the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/Draft:Farisha_Ishak

If you have other tips or think another wikiproject page is better to ask for a review, please let me know.

Thank you!

Best, Anilorac207 2603:6080:5802:4B07:1D5E:1C2A:8927:EC46 (talk) 12:50, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

Pontian boat

The Pontian boat was a lashed-lug boat built in the 3rd to 5th century CE and discovered near the town of Pontian, in southern Pahang, Malaysia by British archaeologist Ivor Evans in 1926. It is one of the earliest examples of boat-building in Southeast Asia.

Primary refs

It would be great if someone would create an article about it. Mathglot (talk) 08:41, 25 November 2024 (UTC)
