Nomination of Han American for deletion
[edit]A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Han American is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Han American until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. --benlisquareT•C•E 16:26, 10 May 2015 (UTC)
Mandarin language listed at Redirects for discussion
[edit]An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Mandarin language. Since you had some involvement with the Mandarin language redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Si Trew (talk) 17:36, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Han Chinese, did not appear constructive and have been undone. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Please come on the talk page and discuss. Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:10, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Han Chinese. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.
Stop edit warring. I am politely asking you to revert you last edit. Your edits are disruptive. Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:14, 19 August 2016 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Han Chinese shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
You are edit warring against multiple users now. Can you please revert your last edits and come on the talk page? Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:18, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

Lysimachi (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))
Request reason:
I try to find reasons for the block from my recent edits that have been reverted by the administrator who blocked me and by the user Citobun. But I still don't know exactly why the block could be imposed per WP:BP. Here is my review:
- On Hong Kong International Airport, I changed "destinations in Mainland China (with 45 destinations)" to "other destinations in China (with 45 destinations)" because the other destinations also include Haikou on the Hainan Island, which is not on the mainland. Is this pushing personal POV?
- My edit on China was reverted by the user, but that revert was again reverted by another user JohnBlackburne. If my edit was pushing personal POV, was JohnBlackburne's too?
- On Taiwan after World War II, I changed the name of the country China to government of China because in that sentence it was contrasted with the government of the Republic of China and removed a link to the Chinese page 臺灣省行政長官公署 (because it looks red) and instead added the Chinese name in parentheses. Is this pushing personal POV?
- On Same-sex marriage in Taiwan, I removed the distinguish template "Not to be confused with Recognition of same-sex unions in China", which the blocking administrator added back without any reason. But I still don't understand why "Same-sex marriage in Taiwan" would be confused with "Recognition of same-sex unions in China" and why that template must be kept there. Is this pushing personal POV?
- On Chinese people, I changed Special Administrative Regions to autonomous regions, which are the main regions where most ethnic groups reside, and reduced the redundancy of the ethnic groups section and the part on Taiwanese people, which should be mainly treated in Taiwanese people per WP:NPOV. Is this pushing personal POV?
- On Teng Yu-hsien, I removed the unreferenced template (because I added references and update links), removed the expand Chinese template (because the article already has quite some content from the Chinese page, and more importantly, 李臨秋 doesn't correspond to this page at all), changed "Mandarin Chinese" to "Mandarin" (because the languages Hokkien and Hakka are also Chinese, it's weird and redundant to add Chinese only to Mandarin), and linked Mandarin and Hakka to their language pages. Is this pushing personal POV?
- On Taiwanese people, I added native names in Mandarin and Hakka, removed unnecessary country name rephrasing, made the sentences on the "four great ethnic groups" more concise, changed "Mandarin Chinese, Hokkien, Hakka" to "Mandarin, Hokkien, Hakka" (as aforementioned) and removed the last sentence about Kinmen and Matzu because not all people there have the same national identity, as shown in more recent studies (i.e., the original claim cannot be verified per WP:V). Is this pushing personal POV?
Decline reason:
In order:
- Yes, since Mainland China includes Hainan and doesn't mean the geographical "mainland".
- That should be discussed on the article's talk page.
- You also removed relevant "See also" links. And removing an interlanguage link that pointed to a relevant article in another language while showing that an English article may need to be written wasn't particularly helpful.
- This one looks like collateral damage to me that was caught up in the reversal of the rest of your edits.
- You changed the focus of the "Chinese people" article to effectively make it say that the Taiwanese aren't considered Chinese. I think the PRC would disagree with that, as would the reference you removed. So yes, this is POV-pushing.
- I think you'll find it difficult to explain why you removed the {{chinese text}} template from Teng Yu-hsien except in an attempt to downplay any mention of "Chinese".
- Again you downplay "Chinese-ness" of Taiwan, going so far as to remove the official name of the country.
In summary, you have been heavily POV-pushing across multiple articles. Huon (talk) 19:19, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Presidential elections in Taiwan
[edit]The official titles of the offices are President of the Republic of China, not "President of Taiwan". You would be advised to adhere to WP:NPOV and not push your own views over the PRC/ROC situation.--Tærkast (Discuss) 19:07, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

- Further to this, see WP:OTHERNAMES. You ought to understand the entire policy before branding it, especially given that the office titles are ROC, not "President of Taiwan", of which you further introduced more inaccuracies and POV-pushing into it. --Tærkast (Discuss) 21:50, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
Controversial edits at Han Chinese
[edit]WIth this edit you tried to replace 'Han Chinese' with 'Han people' within the article on the Han Chinese. Be aware that a move request for this article (wanting to use 'Han people' instead of Han Chinese) was recently turned down. You should not keep trying to change the name within the article unless you can get consensus for it. Otherwise it is edit warring. It is usual for the article title to be echoed in the first line of the article text -- you were changing the first line so that it did not match the article's own title.

Your recent editing history at Template:Taiwan topics shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- 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 engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Muhandes (talk) 22:06, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for April 11
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Academia Sinica, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Gongguan (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, but a recent edit of yours has an edit summary that appears to be inaccurate or inappropriate. The summaries are helpful to people browsing an article's history, so it is important that you use edit summaries that accurately tell other editors what you did. Feel free to use the sandbox to make test edits. Thank you. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 17:27, 26 October 2018 (UTC)

[edit]Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize pages by deliberately introducing incorrect information, as you did at Academia Sinica, you may be blocked from editing. "China" was not established in 1949. CaradhrasAiguo (leave language) 15:47, 7 November 2018 (UTC)
