Malaysia hatnote

Hi Omdo,

I am a little confused by your edit summary just now:

"possible vandalism by malon"

What did you mean by that? And who is malon? The edit in question was by User:Jan1nad, and had an explanatory edit summary of:

"Undid revision 415518070 by Omdo (talk) No need for 2 hatnotes"

which isn't vandalism, but merely a reversion of your previous edit for the reason explained. Obviously we don't need two hatnotes to the same page, so if you object to the current hatnote (which seems to have been the subject of a rather unnecessary edit war today), then please make your point at Talk:Malaysia#Hatnote. Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 17:56, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Dependent territory

Hello. You seem to be persistently re-adding Malaysia to this list. It's been reverted every time, so unless you get a reliable source that states unequivocally "Sabah and Sarawak are dependent territories of Malaysia", then it'll continue to be removed every time you add it. Also, please follow proper editing policy: where your actions are reverted, propose your arguments on the talk page. Thanks, and best regards, Nightw 09:32, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Associated state

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others and avoid editing disruptively.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

1. Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to edit war, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. HkCaGu (talk) 00:45, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

Alaska is a State like any other

Your edit [1] has been reverted. The misconception that Alaska is not a "real" part of the United States is something we Alaskans have to struggle against on a regular basis. Alaska, as you can see, is not on the "United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories." The reason is that Alaska has been a U.S. state, with all the rights, responsibilities, and privileges of any other state for the last fifty-two years. The very first sentence of the article clearly identifies it as a state. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:29, 22 June 2011 (UTC)

Malaysia article

You are more than welcome to contribute to the improvement of the Malaysia article, but please discuss any edits you wish to make on the article talk page first. This article is a GA. We really don't need a completely unreferenced section. I see that you have been trying to add the document as a reference. May I ask why? What is your agenda? Would appreciate if you can discuss rather than insisting on making article changes that a few of us are disagreeing/have reservations with. Thanks, Bejinhan talks 02:57, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

I'm sorry, there's no prejudice against you contributing to the Malaysia article, but you really shouldn't add a largely unreferenced section to it, even more so because it is has good article status. I think what Bejinhan means by your agenda is your extensive work on Malaysia Agreement-related topics. My guess is you are conducting a pretty extensive study on the document. If I am correct, would you care to provide citations of the documents and other items which you have referenced? (It doesn't matter if they are offline, hardcopy sources.) However, if your additions are your original research, then you are not allowed to post them on Wikipedia per policy.

Also, please don't edit war. — Yk ʏк yƙ  talk ~ contrib 04:39, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

Please don't try to unilaterally overturn the results of deletion discussions by ignoring the results and simply re-creating the deleted pages, as you did with Template:Territories forming part of the Commonwealth. JamesBWatson (talk) 15:42, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
