We noticed though that when you edited Badminton at the 2014 Asian Games, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zhang Nan. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Indonesia into Economy of Indonesia. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:50, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

Indonesia edits
Hi. to're right - my edit summary wasn't very clear - sorry. What I meant was that I reverted the Indonesian language term reformasi (often mistranslated as reformation!) and restored the paragraph that was cited twice from public media, rather than once from a dissertation. However I think the Beets paper is useful, particularly as it refers to military involvement since the inception of the TNI, not during the Suharto regime. It also makes references to non-budget spending. However, at 81 pages, I haven't had time to finish reading it... Perhaps a compromise would be to restore the "Since its founding, the military has always had a strong political influence, reaching its greatest extent during the New Order." sentence and add the Beets reference. Sorry - I don't have time to do that now because of typing this :-) and I have to dash. I'll take a look later. Regards Davidelit (Talk)


 * Thanks for the explanation. However, I think that sentence alone isn't enough since the article needs to explain that, following reforms in 1998, the army's influence was reduced although every sources I read agree that they still do have a political influence anyway. So I'm gonna restore this as well, without adding the word "reformasi." Regards AdaCiccone (talk) 03:16, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Removing Jokowi's Amateur Radio Callsign
Hello, as an Amateur Radio Enthusiast, I was just wondering why you stated in your edits that it is" not that notable about the radio thing ". If its not notable for you or for the readers here then Please state your reasons at my Talk Page if you have time. Indonesia is lucky to have a President who knows how to operate a Ham radio and it was in fact worked in emergencies where nothing else gets through. It’s been a critical part of emergency response when cellphones are overloaded or the infrastructure damaged. Awaiting for your answers :) Sending my 73's to you QRU and QRX at My Talk Page.

PS. At least all Amateur Radio Communities are all aware of Pak Jokowi's Callsign. Bonjovax (talk) 04:39, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

Soviet Union
It appears that you changed this from U.S. English to British English -- what's up? What about MOS:RETAIN? Did it used to be British? Bruce leverett (talk) 14:24, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Oops, sorry about that. I'm not aware of the guideline that you refer to. Will revert it back soon. I changed it because the date format in the article uses the British format, so I thought it was appropriate to use British English for consistency. AdaCiccone (talk) 03:28, 5 September 2019 (UTC)

British spelling
So, I'm wondering why we now use British spelling on Indonesian articles. I was here for a few years from 2006 and built up a lot of the Indonesian geography, history, and architecture pages. and countless others. I went along with the (generally) US English usage on Indonesia pages. Then i dissappeared for a few years. Now I'm back since last year, and I see it's now British English on Indonesia articles. Why the change? Actually, as an Aussie, I'm quite happy to see British English used, but I'm not sure how we justify it. I'm asking, not challenging. :) --Merbabu (talk) 08:33, 14 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I use the British English because the Indonesia article (which I consider the mother of all Indonesia-related articles) uses the British spelling. It's written on its talk page. It's the consistency and uniformity that I aim for, that all Indonesia-related articles in Wikipedia use British spelling. AdaCiccone (talk) 09:47, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
