Can I make a suggestion that instead of doing things like this, you actually try and reference it yourself? It took all of 10 seconds to find a source listing the Vice Presidents of Palau. Number  5  7  14:53, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Page Merge?
Hi Cab! I have noticed that there are two pages on Americans abroad, American diaspora and Emigration from the United States. I think that these two pages should merge into one. Just to let you know that's all.DaTraveller (talk) 10:05, 21 June 2011 (UTC)

D. Bokhary
I don't know who he is; I have got nothing against this person. I might like him if I met him in person, but that's not the point. Your article on this person was just OTT and it seemed like promoting the Bokhary family. I've tried to improve the article up to my limit as I could not find any further sources to back his notability. I do hope that you can find some off-line documents relating to this person so that the article may stay. STSC (talk) 15:04, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Korean racial slur, Jjokbari.
Hello, CaliforniaAliBaba. I'm not sure whether you can join the discussion but if you could, please contribute your opinion at Talk:Anti-Japanese sentiment. I have noticed that you added "Jjokbari is generally accepted as literally meaning "pig's foot" (jjok being pig, bal being foot)." at this article years ago. If you could provide what was your sources for the sentence, it would be very helpful. Many Thanks. PBJT (talk) 22:09, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:HaneulsaekKohyang.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:HaneulsaekKohyang.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 14:26, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 6
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Mongolians in Japan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mongolian (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.
