- Things took a turn for the better yesterday, and I'm coping well. I did not enable my e-mail address on Wikipedia, over spam concerns. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- If you want, you can create a separate e-mail account just for Wikipedia-related mail and enable that. Newyorkbrad 15:44, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Saxifrage
editJust letting you know that I've s-protected Saxifrage's user page per your request. Thanks for reporting the problem. Cheers, Sarah Ewart (Talk) 11:35, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'm glad to hear that. He is apparently being harassed by a large group of trolls over the deletion of the Genmay article. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Hi
editJames086 Talk has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling to someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Smile to others by adding {{subst:smile}}, {{subst:smile2}} or {{subst:smile3}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Happy editing!
I saw your edits around a lot so I decided to check out your user page. You sound stressed so I thought I'd say hi and that your edits are appreciated. Hi, your edits are appreciated :) Hope to see you round. Feel free to reply or whatever. James086 Talk | Contribs 14:36, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- Glad to hear that my edits are appreciated! I used to occasionally think "Why am I contributing here when anonymous vandals are more appreciated than me?" While I haven't gotten any GAs yet (I hope to soon), this token of appreciation will motivate me to make further contributions that will be appreciated. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
RE: Birthday wishes and Barnstar
editThanks J.L.W.S for the birthday wishes and for the barnstar. I greatly appreciate the barnstar as well as the wishes, and I will continue to offer you advice on Wikipedia. See you on MSN soon. Cheers --Terence Ong (C | R) 04:52, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Hope you feel better
editI hope you feel better soon. Best wishes, Jam01 00:56, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'm feeling better already, although I prefer Milo! --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Don't worry, Be happy!
editHola. Gosh, I hope you feel better real soon....I've been through some of the stuff you've been through, and I know it can be tough but.....it's all natural. Suffering is a part of our lives. It will be over one day. Stress is what makes a person human. I hope you like that kitten picture. Dunno if you like kittens, but....I'll go through all risks to make you smile. I consider you a good friend. If you need anything at anytime, feel free to leave me a message. Or, just post it here, I have your page on my watchlist (preferred on my talk page; it's not that long). ¡Adios!Kyo cat(T)•(C) 02:23, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- When I was younger, I used to like kittens and think they are cute. Although my kitten fetish died down a long time ago, I think you've chosen a pretty cute kitten. That one won my heart over in a nanosecond. I know that stress is what makes us human, and I'll do my best to cope with it.
- P.S. Since you "consider me a good friend", may I know if there has been any previous correspondence between us? Apologies for sounding unfriendly; I'm not the type who takes friendship lightly. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:36, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- Well, I tend to make friends with people who have had the same problems as I had, but if don't consider me a friend, that's quite alright! I'd still be your friend. ^_^ And besides, I try to make friends with everyone here at Wikipedia. You are no exception. And I understand that you don't take friendship lightly; I used to be like that myself. well, gotta go. ¡Adios, amigo! --Kyo cat(T)•(C) 18:06, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
Memos on IRC
editI think I just left you a message to let you know that I'm very often away on IRC because my client is connected almost all the time. I do however see any messages with xyr or Xyrael in them so rest assured they will get through. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have :) —Xyrael / 15:56, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
- I see. How do I read memos? When are you usually online? (My guess - when I'm sleeping.) In addition, my account on the test wiki (The Hildan) has been blocked indefinitely. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 03:08, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
One-party state
editThere is an ongoing discussion on the talk page, which you evidently didn't see (or rather more likely, you did see, but ignored) before making your edit. Singapore is a de-facto one-party state, according to the definition of this in the article. It should therefore be included in that list. http://www.freedomhouse.org/template.cfm?page=22&year=2005&country=6829 http://www.economist.com/media/pdf/DEMOCRACY_TABLE_2007_v3.pdf http://www.economist.com/theworldin/international/displayStory.cfm?story_id=8166790&d=2007 http://web.amnesty.org/report2005/sgp-summary-eng http://www.rsf.org/article.php3?id_article=17360&Valider=OK
From the article: "In most cases, parties other than the one in power are banned, although some systems guarantee a majority for one favored party that ensures the impotence of any parties relegated by law or practice (including rigged elections) to a permanent status as a miniscule and impotent minority." This description fits Singapore completely. --Regebro 09:14, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- The following description, in the lead section of the dominant-party system article, fits Singapore completely:
- "However, in some dominant-party systems, opposition parties are subject to varying degrees of official harassment and most often deal with rules and electoral systems (such as gerrymandering of electoral districts) designed to put them at a disadvantage or in some cases outright electoral fraud."
- As such, Singapore appears to meet both descriptions, possibly because the two descriptions have similar meanings. However, a country cannot be both a single-party state and a dominant-party system.
- Opera's search function could not find the phrase "single-party state" in any of the sources you linked to. Therefore, to conclude that these sources claim that Singapore is a single-party state is original research.
- Do note that Instantnood, the only Wikipedian supporting you in this disupte, has been banned from editing many articles, including Singapore, due to POV-pushing and edit-warring, particularly on China-related articles. Three arbitration cases have been filed against him, and this edit is deceptive and disruptive. I am concerned that he may have negatively influenced you, and have also considered the possibility that you may be a sockpuppet of him (however, I will Assume good faith, considering your good-faith attempts to resolve the dispute).
- --J.L.W.S. The Special One 10:16, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- I think you guys are splitting hairs. It seems that you're drawing a "distinction without a difference" which is to say that you are saying practically the same thing but using different words to describe it.
- Admittedly, I don't know much about Singapore, but I would venture to say that Singapore's government has multiple parties but that, for all practical purposes, it is dominated by a single party. Whether that domination is sufficiently overbearing to call it a "one-party state" is a matter for debate. I would document "the facts" in the article and leave it at that without getting into a pissing match over "one-party state" vs. "dominant party system".

Proposed meetup: Singapore 3
editThe third Singapore Wikipedians' meetup will be held either on 10 March 2007 or on 11 March 2007 in Chaerani's residence, a piece of landed property in Queenstown, Singapore. An estimated ten to fifteen users in the Singapore Wikipedian community are expected to turn up. Please visit the meetup page to indicate your interest for attending this meetup. —Goh wz 07:00, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- November is too early to confirm anything. However, keep me posted. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 08:57, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
your edit to All your base are belong to us
editI am wondering why you added the "script" section back to the top? First the script is already contained in the Zero Wing (translations). Second, the script is partially eluded to in the Livejournal reference. Lastly, you didn't remove it from the 'Transcripts and translations' section where I just moved it to. Care to explain? --Mattarata 02:34, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- After checking the history, I have come to the following conclusion: I was trying to revert vandalism, but someone beat me to it, and made several edits after reverting. Submitting my "revert" undid his edits. Reverts, unlike regular edits, do not cause edit conflicts, so I was unaware of the in-between edits until checking the page history. Feel free to undo the damage my revert caused. I need to investigate why submitting my revert caused my browser to hang for 20 minutes. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 02:46, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- np, thx--Mattarata 03:02, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
Replace "Editing help" with "Cheatsheet" link
editPer your previous interest, here's a link to the updated proposal: Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Replace "Editing help" with "Cheatsheet" link. Please comment/support there. Thanks :) --Quiddity 21:06, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- I don't remember expressing interest in this. However, my opinion is this: although the Cheatsheet is more useful as a quick reference, the term "Editing help" is easier for new editors to understand. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 03:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Proposal was updated to exactly that yesterday :) And here's your original support. If you wouldn't mind commenting your support in the first thread linked, so I can prove support in order to request the change :) Thanks --Quiddity 04:09, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
Single-party state
editHello. I'm interested to know why you consider my edits to the article and my comments in the talk page POV pushing? By the same logic aren't Freedom House, The Economist, etc., POV pushing, so as folks who disagrees with their reports? — Instantnood 07:37, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Barnstar!
editThe Original Barnstar | ||
I, Kabuto Yakushi1, award Hildanknight this barnstar, for his great contributions. Keep up the good work, Hildanknight! |
Told you I would...
editIt would've been done sooner, but I'm sick and slept through the morning. *kicks self* Should've gotten up earlier.
Well, I hope things start to pick up for you. Conbined stresses of real life and Wikipedia aren't good for the health! Take care of yourself, rest up, take a breather and a break if you have to. I'm here if you want to talk, you know where to find me :-) — Editor at Large(speak) 03:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Compromise solution added
editAs previously discussed. [1]. --Regebro 14:27, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
Mediation of single-party state
editHi there, I've taken the mediation case for single-party state for the mediation committee. Please go here to start the mediation. Thanks. —Xyrael / 15:42, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
About democracy.
editAs I don't want to discuss the issue on the mediationb talk page (it's for statements, not discussion, I'll have to add some comments here. I hope I can help to enlighten the issue a bit:
- In my opinion, Singapore is not a single-party state, but a democratic party system. ... Opposition parties are discriminated against.
You see, the fact that opposition parties are discriminated against means that singapore is *not* a democratic party system. In a democratic system, the opposition is not discriminated against.
- The following paragraph in the lead section of dominant-party system seems to accurately describe the political situation in Singapore'
Yes. And that paragraph is also practically equivalent with the definition of "de facto single-party states" as it was stated on the page before the change. That paragraph defines states where the majority keeps power by undemocratoc means, which is how de facto single-party state is defined. When you say that that paragraph accurately describe singapores political system, you say that it is a de facto single-party state according to the definition that was in the page. You therefore basically say that I was right all along. :)
Let me quote from the discussion on the talk page: Singapores government jail opponents, the sue all opponents and all critical media into bancrupcy, there are restrictions on the freedom of meeting, there are severe restrictions on the freedom of media as well as political censorship, and there are no free press. All newpapers are owned either by the government or one company that has close ties with the government. None of these things would be true in a democracy.
I think the problem here is twofold. One, a national pride that makes it hard for you guys to admit to faults with Singapore, and secondly (and this is not an attack, although I'm sure you will get upset) youth and inexperience. Many of you who defend Singapore asa democracy are young and have probably never lived anywhere else. You simply do not know how thing work in a democracy. All you see is that Singapore is more democratic than most of your neighbouring countries. That's a great achievement in itsef, but it does not make Singapore a full-blown democracy.
I hope this explains some of the misunderstandings. --Regebro 14:49, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
- Sorry, I meant "dominant-party system", not "democratic party system". I've corrected this error.
- As stated previously, there are some dominant-party systems which the ruling party uses undemocratic means to disadvantage opposition parties, but they are still considered democracies. I recall one of your sources, Freedom House, stating that even in the USA, there is gerrymandering (when I tried to check the source, I got a 404).
- Despite being a Singaporean, I disagree with some of the PAP's policies. Singapore may not be fully democratic, but we are not "non-democratic" (as your statement "Singapore is not a democracy" implies). I consider Singapore to be "partially democratic".
- In Singapore's entry in the list of dominant-party systems, perhaps it would be appropriate to mention some of the undemocratic means the Singapore government uses to put opposition parties at a disadvantage. In the spirit of NPOV, this will give the facts, and let the reader make his own judgement.
- --J.L.W.S. The Special One 02:39, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- OK, that clears up the misunderstanding. But no, in democracies undemocratic means are typically not used. Gerrymandering is ridicolous, but it's not normally considered undemocratic, as you even with gerrymandering typically need a majority of the votes (or at least very close) to win. and only an issue where you use exclusively single-seat election areas, like USA. But thats a minor debating point. :-) --Regebro 20:12, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
Don't edit my signature please.
editOk, I know this probably wasn't intentional, but you kind of messed up my signature on Talk:RuneScape. So could you just try not to do that? It's kind of annoying having to go through the history to find out where the code's broken. It's not a big deal, though, and I did fix it. --Pyrospirit <font color="green">Talk Contribs 06:12, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Image:Money No Enough VCD cover.jpg is very small and looks pretty bad in the infobox, as you can see. So I've left it out for now. It can easily be added later when a usable image is located. If you have the VCD cover, it would be okay to scan that. Make it 220 pixels wide, 72 dpi and re-upload it. The copyright owner is still the film production company/distributor, no matter if it came from your personal collection or somebody's website. If you need anymore assistance, give me a shout. — WiseKwai 17:15, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Did you know?
editFalse allegations
editRe [2] - How much do you know about the background of the previous ArbCom cases that I was involved? Can you tell the reasons why I and other folks were placed on probation? Would you please kindly demonstrate in what way do my edits on Wikipedia constitutes POV-pushing, and that's my political views? Before answering all these questions, please refrain from jumping to your very own conclusion on what I did. Thanks in advance. — Instantnood 14:35, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Why thank you
editThanks for the barnstar, Hildanknight! That's very nice of you. As you were then, you are most welcome for any help that I was able to give while you were stressed out; I'm very glad that it helped. As for leaving, I certainly don't intend to leave Wikipedia! The encyclopedia is great; I decided to resign from Esperanza because it no longer felt like the organization I joined it for, and wasn't likely that it would turn back into it. I don't plan on involving myself in any fork-ness if it occurs, but I hope that everyone will carry on the ideals of Esperanza even without the organization itself. I still plan to be involved in the wrapping up of the organization though, because it still matters to me. -- Natalya 15:37, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

AQ Wikiproject
editHey Hildanknight, I noticed you have an interest in AQ. I'm trying to start a AQ Wikiproject. It'd be cool if you could go to Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals and add yourself to the list of interested Wikipedians so that we can start up a Adventure Quest Wikiproject. Thank You. SupaSoldier 21:36, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- Due to the Guardian Only Login, and lack of time, I stopped playing AdventureQuest several months ago. I play DragonFable occasionally. Nevertheless, I am still interested in AdventureQuest, and I will join the WikiProject.
- I think this WikiProject will face some difficulties due to its narrow scope. Two goals I can see are:
- Get AdventureQuest to GA status. I rewrote the article to eliminate fancruft, but to get GA status, it will need lots of referencing.
- Write articles on DragonFable and other Artix Entertainment games, once they become sufficiently notable.
- A toast to our collaboration! --J.L.W.S. The Special One 10:43, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
This is just let you know that Wang Yu now leads to a disambiguation page, where I've created a red link for "your" Wang Yu, Wang Yu (actress). Before, the name was a redirect to a Hong Kong film actor born in 1943. The name is also similar to yet another Hong Kong film actor's. Take care! — WiseKwai 21:40, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
- How did you know who "my" Wang Yu was? Thanks for creating the link and informing me. Having only won one Star Award, I'm not sure if she meets the notability requirements. I'm thinking up a proposal for a process where, before writing an article, one can ask experienced Wikipedians to check the subject's notability. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:44, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
- I figured she was yours after your user page was one of the links to the redirect to Jimmy Wang Yu. A bit more searching to find out about the Star awards and the TV show was all it took for me to figure things out. If she isn't notable yet, she likely will be someday if she stays in show business. Anyway, I hope you stick around at Wikipedia. There's plenty of valuable contributions that are yet to be made for Singapore and southeast Asian cinema. — WiseKwai 16:53, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
- There's plenty of valuable contributions that are yet to be made for Singapore and southeast Asian cinema. I certainly agree with this statement. I want to work on such articles, and improve a couple to GA status (getting a few DYKs along the way). However, with Wikipedia's strict verifiability requirements, and a lack of available reliable references on Singaporean topics due to systemic bias, how much can I contribute? --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:01, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- Do the best with what you have to work with, and don't feel discouraged. You've done pretty good so far. — WiseKwai 15:46, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for the encouragement. Since Esperanza's deletion, I was considering whether Wikipedia was the right writing community for me. As long as "what I have to work with" is sufficient to write even a single GA on a Singaporean topic, I will persevere with this goal. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:00, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello J.W.L.S, I created the AQ Wikiproject, but I renamed it Wikiproject:Artix Entertainment, so we could cover Dragonfable, AQ and the Mini games! Please sign as a member and help out (the page really needs it) ;^) Thanks! SupaSoldier 20:51, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- I've joined the WikiProject. However, school and real life are keeping me stressed, and I'm reconsidering my future as a Wikipedian, so I may not stay and contribute. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:06, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
That's Okay, as long as your here to get it started up! Oh and I was wondering if you could create the article--> Monster Joust Madness <-- Because I haven't played it that much and know little about it! ;^) §SupaSoldier 16:51, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'm afraid I can't help you with that. I haven't played Monster Joust Madness (though I'll check it out), and I'm not sure if it's notable enough to deserve a Wikipedia article. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 10:59, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Your comments on Dev920's talk page
editI wouldn't comment about somebody's incivility if I were you, as your comments on Dev's page strike me as a violation of WP:CIV, as does your edit summary. I won't remove them, but I suggest you go back and strike them yourself. Jeffpw 12:06, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- I won't try to pretend that I'm the most civil Wikipedian that you've ever met. I admit I'm not perfect, and have occasionally made comments that border on incivility. However, I doubt I've ever made anti-Muslim comments or called any proposal "a f***ing stupid idea" (I regularly post to WP:VPR). Dev920 herself has stated that civility is less important than truth, and I don't think posting several easily-calculated figures and an objective statement about her faults (while admitting that "Dev920 probably has some good qualities") amounts to incivility. I'm going to sleep now (it's 11.45pm in Singapore), and should you respond, you won't receive a quick follow-up. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 15:50, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- Posting "whew, the internet won't suck now", (paraphrasing) in both your comment and your edit summary is decidedly uncivil. If you check back there, you'll see an administrator thinks the same thing. It's easy to make snide remarks while hiding behind your computer. However, if you wouldn't say it to somebody's face, you probably shouldn't say it at all. Just a suggestion. I'm not interested in debating this with you, or even interacting with you at all. I'm unwatching this page now, so you needn't bother replying. Jeffpw 16:32, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Oh goodness me. Consensus is that users can do what they wish with their own talk pages, as any edits are preserved in page histories. If you'd like me to cite policy rather than consensus I would direct you to WP:CIVIL#Removing_uncivil_comments where it endorses removing uncivil comments (which yours indisputably were). I also don't appreciate in the slightest your removal of my comments and edits to the talk page in question and encourage you to self-revert. —bbatsell ¿? 02:55, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Orphaned fair use image (Image:Aqstart.PNG)
editThanks for uploading Image:Aqstart.PNG. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Helping Adventure Quest
editWhy not put those warning signs about what wikipedia is and is not, that way you might be able to save some time from removing fancruft and ingame advice. This is just a suggestion of course. Glenn Browne 15:35, 02 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks for your suggestion, Glenn Browne. Unfortunately, I can't find any template about fancruft. I once suggested such a template on VPR, but consensus appeared to be against it. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 15:44, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
- What about the warning signs on articles like the F-15 fighter jet, pop culture section, warning about fancruft before editing. Glenn Browne 15:50, 02 February 2007 (UTC)
- Those are not templates - they are HTML comments, which are only visible when editing. Yes, I should consider adding one to the top of the article. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 16:16, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

- What, you've been here a year and you're still sane? Obviously, you're not participating enough. Happy First Edit Day. Perhaps the second year will be crazier than the first. Nah, just kidding, it's not possible. --Richard 07:09, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, Tachikoma and Richardshusr. You've nearly convinced me that the community hasn't died yet. Richard, in my first year, I have commited vandalism, gotten into edit wars with anonymous vandals and occasionally made incivil remarks. If I stay here for another year (when I should be studying for my O levels), I may end up in IMH (touch wood). --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:43, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Wikiproject Artix Entertainment
editI need help with the Wikiproject now more than ever. I forgot the name of the newest AE Mini Game (I remember it has something to do with Robina Hood). PLease help me get it back up n' running. Thank You! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 17:25, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think any mini-games meet Wikipedia's notability criteria. That AdventureQuest is notable does not make its history, mini-games, etc. notable. If the mini-games as a whole are notable, I don't mind including a single article about all of them. Should you create an article on a mini-game that subsequently gets nominated for deletion, even I will vote to have them deleted as fancruft. --J.L.W.S. The Special One 14:35, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Hmmmm, your right. I am going to shut down the Wikiproject due to inactivity and not enough notability. Thank You for your contributions! :^) §†SupaSoldier†§ 18:45, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
Newslink access
editCould you please provide a date range for that article? - SpLoT {新年快乐!} // 14:45, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
- According to the movie's official website, and IMDB, The Best Bet was released on 9 June 2004. The article would probably be published in May or June 2004. If you find multiple articles about The Best Bet - great! I forgot to mention my Gmail address: hildanknight(at)gmail(dot)com (I use it for both MSN Messenger and Google Talk - feel free to add me). P.S. 祝你恭喜发财, 身体健康, 学业进步, 万事如意! --J.L.W.S. The Special One 15:54, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
