Hey, welcome onboard. I hope to see you contribute more about Malaysia, be it Sabah or Malaysia in general. You might be interested in Wikipedia:Malaysia-related topics notice board. We somewhat coordinate Malaysia-related stuff over there. Till then, have fun! __earth (Talk) 16:16, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Empty, redundant categories

Please don't make categories just for the sake of it. I'm nominating most of your empty and redundant categories for deletion. __earth (Talk) 16:26, 19 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We welcome and appreciate your contributions, such as Sabah museum, but we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. Perhaps you would like to rewrite the article in your own words. For more information, take a look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Happy editing! __earth (Talk) 01:38, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sabah subcategories

I have deleted a few of the empty categories you created for Category:Sabah—Society & Culture, News & Media and Science & Technology. Because these were always empty, and have been for quite some time, they are speedy deletable, which means deletable on sight without discussion. The other empty categories created with similar names were (unnecessarily) listed on Wikipedia:Categories for deletion. These appear to have been created by accident, as you have created numerous others for Sabah topics that properly included "Sabah" in the category name. Feel free to create additional subcategories for Category:Sabah that are properly named, but make sure their names and the subject divisions correspond to those already observed in Category:Malaysia overall.

Misusage of categories and regarding Template:Sabah

Hello. I want to inform you that you are misusing category. It's not a place for a collection of outside link. And please ensure your categories are consistent with other categories. For instance, please observe precedent available in other Malaysian states or even other well-developed categories for states (like Category:California). Note that there is a certain naming convention that needs to be adhere.

Concerning Template:Sabah, I feel strongly that it should only be included in pages which is linked by the template. In this case, only divisions and towns/cities/villages of Sabah should have that template. And please be mindful whenever you decide to add the template because some pages have already had existing template. Adding another one something result in cosmetic disaster. I had removed some that graphically overlapped with one another. Thanks. __earth (Talk) 03:24, 4 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Reply to "why why why"

Hello. Firstly, I want to apologize for being harsh and perhaps rude. However, the reason I blanked some of your work (which I was coincidentally checking on Sabah's categories) is that, those articles contains stuff copied verbatim from outside and copyrighted source. At the same time, the lack of copyright notice doesn't mean you have the right to copy it and paste it here.

And categories, Category:Recreation & Sports in Sabah is very out of line. Wikipedia already has Category:Recreation. At the same time, the current convention uses Category:Sport in Malaysia. So, if you want to make new related Sabah categories, it should Category:Recreation in Sabah (though I don't recommend this cat because the parent cat itself isnt about what you are trying to compile) and Category:Sport in Sabah. The Category:Recreation & Sports in Sabah is simply not in line with Wikipedia's style.

I hope that helps. __earth (Talk) 19:00, 1 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
