Talk:List of high commissioners of the United Kingdom for Malaya

Proposed merge
The infobox Template:Infobox Former Country was wrongly used in this article. It is a template created for WikiProject former country. Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Former_countries. As for the proposed merge, would love to hear what you think about it. --Bukhrin (talk) 00:34, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Coat of arms of the Federated Malay States.png
Image:Coat of arms of the Federated Malay States.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Post-independence
I am uncertain about the phrase: "When Malaya gained independence from the British Government, the post of British High Commissioner in Malaya, was abolished and replaced by the Supreme Head of Malaya or Yang Di-Pertuan Agong Malaya, appointed by rulers of the nine Malay states" After independence, Malaya and then Malaysia joined the Commonwealth, so there was a normal diplomatic British High Commissioner. This could be seen as the replacement of the protectorate High Commissioner. --Rumping (talk) 16:58, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
