 * Ah, yes...it looks like, while they're both from the same flickr set, the one Ohconfucius uploaded is tagged as non-commercial whereas the other one isn't. Strangely enough. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 03:23, 17 September 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm sorry I missed the 'non-commercial' licence on the replacement image I uploaded. I just think the first image is crap, as it's of just a bunch of photographers, and could have been taken anywhere. I will remove it unless/until a better one is found.

Reporters' assault
This is only a sideshow (although an important one), and I don't believe it serves any encyclopaedic purpose to have the names of all 8 (non-notable) journalists listed in the article, as WP is not the news, and not a directory. I have therefore removed them, as well as the Chinese language source made redundant in the removal. Ohconfucius (talk) 03:46, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * How can a few journalist be taking a beating and their names not be pointed out? The article currently list out Li Zhi who doesn't even have any ties to the event other than getting dismissed.  The 3 journalists are relevant.  I would understand if you said the later 5 were not as famous. Benjwong (talk) 03:53, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I don't think the names are necessary. r ʨ anaɢ talk/contribs 03:56, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * That has to be your personal opinion. Li Zhi is sipping tea in the office and getting fired.  He is more important than the 3 journalists in the front line?  No possible way. Benjwong (talk) 03:58, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
 * What Li Zhi is doing now is not why he is notable. He is notable by virtue of his [former] positions. Whatever happens, I don't think the 8 journalists (in this context) will ever be notable, although the incident is notable (but fails the notability presumption in WP:N). I don't agree with the revert, but I'm not going to war over it. Let consensus prevail. Ohconfucius (talk) 04:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)

Meng Jianzhu
Always nice to read a bit of China Daily once in a while to regurgitate the slogans... Police Chief Meng Jianzhu: "The recent syringe attacks, which were premeditated, masterminded and conducted by law-breakers and instigated by ethnic separatist forces, were a continuation of the July 5 incident in the city" Colipon+ (Talk) 17:05, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
