Hello, I'm LoudLizard. I noticed that you recently removed some content from George Town, Penang without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please ensure that you provide a reason in the edit summary if you are removing large amounts of text. Thanks! LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ✉) 16:36, 11 October 2016 (UTC)

Dear TalkLizard, As for the article on George Town, Penang, I find the introduction too heavily laden with excessive historical content. The historical details are best left further below at the history section, don't you think ? I summarized George Town's history to include only the important events. I have also added logistical connections and George Town's growth.

Wikipedia and copyright

Hello Vnonymous, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to George Town, Penang has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

• You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
• Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
• Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
• If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
• In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
• Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:49, 19 October 2016 (UTC)

Creating redirects

Hi Vnonymous. Thank you for creating the new articles about George Town. Just a small note that it is not necessary to create so many redirects for these articles. Usually, Google's search engine can automatically locate the articles. Thank you and happy editing. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 11:13, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

@Lemongirl942: Noted with thanks. I just thought some redirects may be necessary if someone is to search, for instance, Pitt Street, Penang, instead of Pitt Street, George Town, as both the terms 'George Town' and 'Penang' tend to be used interchangeably. Thank you for your feedback, and if you do have further suggestions, feel free to let me know. Vnonymous 14:19, 17 February 2017 (UTC)

Hey Vnonymous. Thank you for creating more articles and helping to add content! Btw, I just noticed some notices on your talk page. Did you have a look at them? --Lemongirl942 (talk) 20:19, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

There seems to be a discussion here and it would help if you could participate. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 20:21, 2 March 2017 (UTC)

Your image uploads

Regarding your image uploads, they were taken with many different cameras, such as Canon, Sony, Samsung, Nikon, and Panasonic. Please tell me where you are getting these pictures from. Many thanks. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 23:31, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

@Anna Frodesiak: Regarding my image uploads, I either took them myself or received them from my friends who have been to Penang. I have been keeping those images for archiving purposes.Vnonymous 03:21, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

I understand. Thank you kindly. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 03:51, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Penang FA: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. L3X1 My Complaint Desk 23:47, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

Ways to improve Prangin Road, George Town

Hi, I'm Seligne. Vnonymous, thanks for creating Prangin Road, George Town!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. There is some redundancy in the text. Also, no flags in Infobox according to MoS. Good job overall!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Disambiguation link notification for March 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Penang (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)

added links pointing to George Town and Pearl of the Orient

April 2017

Hi, When creating articles you need to remember infoboxes should look like the example below:

{{Infobox shopping mall<br /> <nowiki>|shopping mall name = Queensbay Mall
|image = Queensbay Mall, Penang, Malaysia.JPG
|location = [[Bayan Lepas]], [[Penang]], [[Malaysia]]
|opening date = 2006
|number of stores = 400
|floors = 5
|coordinates = {{coord|5.3346|100.3066|display=inline,title}}|floor_area={{convert|879930|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}
|website = {{URL|http://queensbaymallmalaysia.com/}}
}}

NOT {{Infobox shopping mall|image=Queensbay Mall, Penang, Malaysia.JPG|location=[[Bayan Lepas]], [[Penang]], [[Malaysia]]|coordinates={{coord|5.3346|100.3066|display=inline,title}}|floor_area={{convert|879930|sqft|m2|abbr=on}}|number_of_stores=400|shopping_mall_name=Queensbay Mall|website={{URL|http://queensbaymallmalaysia.com/}}|opening_date=2006|floors=5}}

The second layout helps absolutely no one,
Also the references and reflist header should always be above External Links,
Thanks. –Davey2010^Talk 01:29, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

@Davey2010: Noted. I apologise for any misunderstanding and shall bear that in mind. I typically use the visual editing option. Hence, when you edited the infoboxes manually, the missing information was due to the missing symbol in the parameters (_). Anyway, if you do have further suggestions, feel free to let me know.
Thanks. -Vnonymous 01:49, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi Vnonymous, No worries we all make mistakes :), I apologise for being cagey with you - It's just at the time seeing you undo my edit didn't make much sense but anyway thank you for fixing my mistakes with the underscore :),

Thanks, Happy editing, –Davey2010^Talk 13:21, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
