Thanks!

[edit]

You gave me the valuable info, so I can implement relevant articles. Keep up the good work! --Caspian blue (talk) 22:06, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mock duck flavour

[edit]

Excuse me, but would you happen to know how mock duck's (or mock chicken's) flavour is achieved? Is it really done without using non-vegetarian ingredients? I ask because I don't trust the lists of ingredients on food imported from East Asia after a bad experience with Nongshim, not to mention Western translations that often cut the number of ingredients in half. – Wikipeditor (talk) 03:04, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! – Wikipeditor (talk) 22:58, 11 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have sampled a can for important Wikipedia research. The article said “distinctive flavour” so I expected it to taste like real killed ducks, but it turns out it's just slightly sweet (and otherwise fairly tasteless) gluten, like I should have expected after reading your helpful explanation. A great day for food science! – Wikipeditor (talk) 2008-10-30

Smoking as a wok cooking method

[edit]

Thanks for correcting my revert. I really thought that smoking in a wok was a fraud. The 'zhangcha duck' recipe seems to be rather special and I doubt that anybody without a knowledge of that recipe will think of such a kind of smoking. The wikilink to smoking you inserted actually links to the classical kind of smoking which is not done in a wok. This problem should be addressed more clearly in the article, I think. -- DrJunge (talk) 19:07, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

charcoal

[edit]

Will you let me reword it? Only what I added is not all about charcoal biccies, they are incidental, it's about charcoal tablets, whose only active ingredient is charcoal. Give me a sec to fix it please. Sticky Parkin 21:57, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with how you worded it in activated charcoal, thank you. You said all that was necessary. The other bit (biscuits) was someone else's bit. I just think the biscuits aren't independently notable and don't need their own page. Also the biscuit and some of the other pages said this is a historical remedy when it's not just that. Rightly or wrongly, it's still in use, and I wouldn't say it was "alternative medicine" either, I think it's only notable enough for the charcoal page, if you see what I mean. We agree with each other- I just think the biccie info is only worth a redirect/merge in the manner that you have rewritten it in the activated charcoal page. I think we can mention it was once sold in the form of a biscuit (because that's a fact) but we don't need to witter on at length about it in thhe article- that was just someone else's info I kept out of respect because it was well-referenced, but didn't think was all that significant (that's why I redirected it.) Sticky Parkin 22:11, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I am not obliged to do anything other than WP:BOLD and WP:MERGE on an infrequently edited article, ask anyone. Nothing is required for a merge I considered uncontroversial per WP:MERGE, of an article that is hardly ever edited.

"Merging is a normal editing action, something any editor can do, and as such does not need to be proposed and processed. If you think merging something improves the encyclopedia, you can be bold and perform the merge, as described below. Because of this, it makes little sense to object to a merge purely on procedural grounds, e.g. "you cannot do that without discussion" is not a good argument."

I don't think there will be much response to a merge discussion. Most discussions should be given a week, then acted upon. Are the biscuits so important to you?:) :) :) They aren't to me or anyone else I don't think :) I really don't care what the outcome is but don't think this is worth an article. But feel free to attempt to have a discussion. Sticky Parkin 01:33, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've actually worked to rescue a few food articles from AfD (see my userpage), I rescued Macaroni soup and cheese pudding, those are two I can remember, and I agree with you that they are often shockingly undervalued. This to me wasn't a food article though (are people going to eat charcoal biscuits for fun :) ) I came across it from Category:Alternative medicine which I'm trying to clean up. The article said that this is a historical food- I think it's not a historical remedy as it's still used as a home treatment for indigestion etc, and my alternative thought would be a move to charcoal tablets so we could include the different, modern uses. Anyway, we'll see. :) Sticky Parkin 01:57, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oooh does it? I'm surprised. I didn't think charcoal and carbon were entirely the same thing but then I'm not a chemist, hence I'm tinkering with the alternative medicine category lol:) Sticky Parkin 02:00, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, if it helps you could try and steal the info I put in the carbon article back if you want lol, or steal the sources, they were from pubmed and google books anyway. Now I personally want you to find a source that people ate the scrumptious charcoal biscuits for their delicious taste, as well as just for medicinal purposes. Digestive biscuits are scrumptious, we eat them to this day and we don't always need a medical reason.:) I suspect the charcoal biscuits were sold (this is what the article seems to say) more as a patent medicine. My only objection was that I thought you might be an alt.med POV pusher who just wanted as many alt.med articles as possible for the sake of it. But if you're fighting for the food articles, that I can support.:) Sticky Parkin 04:00, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, sir

[edit]

I appreciate the feedback and the compliment. Sometimes my edits aren't appreciated because my "payoff" is to leave a snarky explanation. I do get a lot of satisfaction out of seeing something read better, though. --Preston McConkie (talkcontribs) 05:50, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, can you please help at Talk:Suanmeitang? Badagnani (talk) 14:02, 28 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's about the juice. Like we have tomato and tomato juice. The main thing is that there's an editor there who is disputing strongly that the translations from Chinese are good. It would really help if you look through the discussion page and the sources and give your input. Thanks, Badagnani (talk) 07:50, 1 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question

[edit]

Chinese desserts looks good. Could use some images. I have a question: was the 中国广播民族乐团 founded in 1953 or 1949? I can't figure it out from http://www.cbpg.cn/gbmzyt/ . Thanks. Badagnani (talk) 23:15, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also, is it based in Beijing? Is there an address given? Badagnani (talk) 23:28, 2 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, is that in the 朝阳门 district? Badagnani (talk) 02:23, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

百戏图

[edit]

Hi, can you tell me what 百戏图 means? Thank you, Badagnani (talk) 02:34, 3 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, there's a famous one showing very ancient musical instruments, I think going back as far as the Han Dynasty, here. Badagnani (talk) 22:20, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, could you add the tone on the first syllable of wabào in the Chinese section of Clay pot cooking? Badagnani (talk) 01:19, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, could you also add pinyin for 煲仔類 and 煲仔 there? Badagnani (talk) 22:25, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Your last edit of Note_(perfumery) on May 25, 2008 contains what I believe to be 3 sections of blatant copyright violation. To give you the benefit of the doubt, I have added the copypaste template to the offending sections with a link to what is probably the source of the content. I believe that theirs came first, as you generated all of this content which so happens to be the majority of said article in five minutes, it used to be verbatim with the probable source and now differs slightly, and finally the copyright on the source page is a year older than your work on the wiki page. If this is the case, please fix the article so that it complies with the Wikipedia guidelines and no longer violates copyright.

Thanks. -- Urikon (talk) 16:00, 10 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Need Chinese name

[edit]

Hi, can you help me find the Chinese name (or at least transliteration) for piñata? Supposedly this Mexican tradition of children hitting a candy-filled papier-mache animal was noted by Marco Polo in China. But every website I found in Chinese spelled piñata in roman letters. Thanks very much, Badagnani (talk) 17:35, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Chinese rank system

[edit]

Hi, Sjschen, I'm seeking your opinion on Chinese rank system during dynasties because many of them were adopted to Korean bureaucratic systems so did other neighboring countries. In Korean term, the rank system is called "品階". But I could not find "correct English terms" for the subject nor articles. Therefore if there is any precedent of similar articles in Chinese subjects, I want to refer to them. Could you help me enlighten the subject? Thanks.--Caspian blue 21:38, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notability of Roo'ra

[edit]

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Roo'ra, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Roo'ra seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Roo'ra, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. To see the user who deleted the page, click here CSDWarnBot (talk) 20:22, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi. It wasn't the notability so much as the lack of content. It appeared at first glimpse to be just another band vanity article and I wasn't the only user to think so. It was already tagged for deletion when I deleted it. I can easily recreate the article, but you'll have to expand it in order to keep this sort of misunderstanding from happening again. Thanks for asking. It'll be up by the time you get this message. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 21:24, 17 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

K-pop artist article

[edit]

Most of the information on that page is already present in Wikipedia's article. For everything else:

jip, preceded by a number, means “…th album”.

수상 susang means “award(s)”.

대한민국 영상·음반 대상 Daehan minguk yeongsang–eumban daesang must be what is rendered in English as “Korea Visual & Phonogram Grand Prize Award” on this MIAK page. I guess that award is awarded by the Korea Movie & Video Industry Association (KMVIA; in Korean: (사[단법인]) 한국 영상 산업 협회 Hanguk yeongsang saneop hyeophoe; the “(사)” is for sadan beobin “corporation”; source for English and Korean names: [1]) and the Hanguk eumak saneop hyeophoe (한국 음악 산업 협회; their Korean site says (in English) Music Industry Association of Korea (the aforementioned MIAK), but their English site says Recording Industry Association of Korea), and perhaps other bodies. In 1995, the band won that award in the so-called Golden disk category (골든디스크 부문 goldeundiskeu bumun).

SBS 가요 대전 대상 [eseu-bi-eseu] gayo daejeon daesang is an award obviously related to SBS, but I can't find its English name. The band won this one in 1995, too.

Curiously, the page gives 100-[=baeg]iljjae mannam (1994) as their debut (데뷔 debwi), but the album list contains an entry that is equally labeled “1집”: Roots Of Reggae (1994). I don't know what to make of that.

Also, the page has The Final (1997) where the Wikipedia article has Roo'Ra (1997). Perhaps that is the same album, and one title is for foreign markets?

The comment in the review section only says “That was our favourite band at middle school.”

KMOCT romanisation (which is identical with Wikipedia's romanisation except for a few some surnames) of the band members' names is I Sang(-)min, Go Yeong(-)uk and Gim Ji(-)hyeon (hyphens, although generally not used by ROK authorities, are optional), but these should not be used in the article text unless it is very unclear how they usually spell their own names. The band itself would be Rulla in KMOCT. AFAIK rulla is a nonsense sound for singing, much like “la la la” in English.

I think the Wikipedia article should not give album names and such in the form of hanja(hangeul), but hangeul(hanja) or just hangeul, because that's how the albums are listed here. Except perhaps if hanja feature more prominently than hangeul in the title's display on the actual cover.

Hope this helps; I am not that interested in pop music bands and don't want to spend much time on them here, particularly if they already enjoy the industry's support. Thank you for your contributions on soy, gluten and whatnot! – Wikipeditor (talk)

Naming convention for Chinese foods and usages of Wikitionary

[edit]

Since you're an active contributor to Chinese cuisine-related articles, you input on ongoing disputes over naming conventions for Chinese food and usages of wikitionary on Chinese characters would be appreciated.

Your citation on tofu

[edit]

Since Phoenix7777 (talk · contribs) has contested the reliability of a Japanese cookbook (ISBN 978-4104719013) that you used for citation on tofu, I'm informing you of the discussion at Talk:Tofu#Selective blanking by User:Phoenix7777 and contested reliability of a Japanese book. Thanks.--Caspian blue 05:21, 25 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, an editor is trying to move Pickled tofu to Fermented bean curd. Do you think the latter name is more common in English for this item? Badagnani (talk) 05:12, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Kala namak, which is consumed in India, is not mined - there are no active volcanoes in the Himalayas - they are fold mountains, so there can possibly no volcanic salts which are mined in Tibet or China. Possibly you are confusing Kala namak with Himalayan salt. So please do not undo my changes - my references especially reference no. 5 are more reliable than your non-verifiable references.

Thanks Thinkspank101 (talk) 12:29, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please see reference no 1 on the kala namak page. Can I expect you to undo your own changes? [2]

Tea Processing

[edit]

Hello Mr. Chen. Thank you for your chart on tea processing. Did you create it specifically for wikipedia, or did you use it somewhere else as well? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.4.160.167 (talk) 06:01, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you ask? -- Sjschen (talk) 19:49, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article Cai Zhizhong has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 16:28, 27 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article Cai Zhizhong has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I am unable to find any mention of Cai Zhizhong on the single reference for the page.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Tea processing

Hello, I am the reviewer on this article which you nominated for GA. I have begun leaving some comments about it at the review page, Talk:Tea processing/GA1. Your input and replies would be welcome. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 16:11, 22 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for getting to that, hit me with a note when you finished addressing the citations issue. Also, I would suggest that if you intend to bring this to FA-status, you might want to add a history section that explains how the methods of tea processing were developed. The History Channel television network show Modern Marvels had a good episode about tea processing last year, if you can find a copy it could help with the article as well. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 16:52, 21 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

WP:FOOD Needs You!

[edit]

Hi there Sjschen! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?

Tekka Centre coordinates

[edit]

Hi, in this edit, which I know was made quite long ago, you added the coordinates 1.3085467, 103.8520646 to Tekka Centre. The actual location of Tekka Centre is about 300m away, (and the amount of decimal digits (7) is too precise according to this table). Thanks for helping to add coordinates to the article, I have edited it and this is just a reminder :) Squc (talk) 10:21, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Help Needed

[edit]

Good afternoon! I work at the American Merchant Marine Museum, in Kings Point NY. We recently have been cleaning out files of old correspondence and collections held by the museum foundation when it was privately ran. We came across a block of tea that looks identical to the one you uploaded

and any information you could provide us would certainly be invaluable. We plan to display the block in the museum here with the sailing ships of the era of whence it came. I am uploading some photos of the tea block to this page. But again, any information would be greatly appreciated! translation, origin, etc.

Thank you!

Hi Clayton, I'm not the expert on black tea bricks but I'll try to help. The particular black tea brick in the image was produced in Hubei after the Chinese revolution by the Zhaoliqiao Tea brick factory.(趙李橋磚茶廠). The design was from a period between 1953 and 1977. After 1977, the paifang design was replaced with a steam locomotive. If you can upload images of the front and back of your tea brick using the Wikimedia uploader, I will take a look and try to date and give you more information. -- Sjschen (talk) 17:45, 15 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Esther Hill

Hi Sjschen,

I uploaded a photo of 63, Jerome St. to wikimedia commons that you can use for the Esther Hill article.

63, Jerome St. Toronto, ON

Thanks a bunch! This was actually designed by Jean Hall so I'll put it there. -- Sjschen (talk) 02:45, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My error. I must have mistaken the caption "The first Girl Architect" from the Toronto Star as referring to the photo of 63 Jerome. Mduvekot (talk) 11:55, 11 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Where did you find the TStar article linking 63 Jerome to E. Hill? Hill's first building was built in Victoria in the 1940s -- Sjschen (talk) 02:03, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
A snapshot from a source at the AGO edit-a-thon. It was just the way the photo was cropped that led me to misinterpret the caption of a photo of Hill as referring to Hall. There's actually a J next to the photo of the Jerome St Building that made me realize the building was indeed by Jean Hall, not by Esther Hill. Mduvekot (talk) 02:21, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I see. I wish we could put that image from that pamphlet on-line, would have be a great comparison to the photo you provided. -- Sjschen (talk) 02:52, 12 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kaempferol

Hi Sjschen I have undone your contribution to flavones, because kaempferol belong in flavonols. Beside, the OH on the C-group is implied, and the OH on the B-ring is on 4' not 5' (which should be '3 not '5 if it was the case). You don't need to do anything, because Kaempferol is already in Flavonols. Best regards, Carystus. Carystus (talk) 18:18, 23 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Irene’s birth name

[edit]

Hi, I was also at the Gardiner event on Sunday and I was at the back with the other OCAD people. I have the same question as you have about Irene’s birth name, but I feel even Irene Hsing (née Yuan) doesn’t really make a lot of sense since that rendition would imply Hsing was at one point her last name, which seems rather unlikely.

I also found this page on a site called myrelatives.com (the site clearly has inaccurate information but the Irene on the page is clearly her). But what I’m wondering is whether we might have a way to track down her name in actual Chinese characters; if we succeed than it would solve the mystery once and for all.—al12si (talk) 18:45, 21 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi All2si, I was the one at the kid's table :). Thanks for bringing the website to my attention, it looks like a great resource! The Irene Yuan Kuo on the site definitely looks like it her, but the info provided incomplete at best. I've tried to find her Chinese name too but to no avail. It certainly doesn't help that her and her husband's names is in wade-giles and there are no diacritcs to aid in pronunciation. -- Sjschen (talk) 01:35, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Black lava salt for deletion

[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Black lava salt 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/Black lava salt 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. Kintetsubuffalo (talk) 15:14, 13 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading File:TaipeiEasyCard.jpg.

This image is a derivative work, containing an "image within an image". Examples of such images would include a photograph of a sculpture, a scan of a magazine cover, or a screenshot of a computer game or movie. In each of these cases, the rights of the creator of the original image must be considered, as well as those of the creator of the derivative work.

While the description page states who made this derivative work, it currently doesn't specify who created the original work, so the overall copyright status is unclear. If you did not create the original work depicted in this image, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright.

If you have uploaded other derivative works, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described in section F4 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 22:07, 7 March 2021 (UTC). If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.
