Master Cheng Yen
David,

I have a couple of books on Master Cheng Yen. After I finish working on the Taichung City article, do you mind if I redo the Cheng Yen entry to make it more complete? Ludahai 06:51, 5 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes, go ahead. I also made a note on the discussion page of Master Cheng Yen. Davidreid 04:23, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

MTC
David, I agree with you on the name of the Mandarin Training Center; it should be changed from what the article currently says; I will be going there myself in November. Would love to talk to you about it and pick your brains. Maybe we can email or IM or something?Petercoyl 02:51, 7 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Peter, you can contact me by e-mail wix99 [at] yahoo.com Davidreid 02:44, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

"" However, Chen's lawyer later denied this.""
Give me a source.. otherwise i will erase the un sourced data... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gumuhua (talk • contribs) 18:34, 31 December 2008 (UTC)


 * The source is the article "Lee Teng-hui under investigation: SIP". Taipei Times (2008-12-27) http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/front/archives/2008/12/27/2003432209. This reference is already cited in the article (currently ref # 88). It is the same source that quotes a prosecutor saying Chen Shui-bian made the accusations against former President Lee.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite
Hi. The WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like South East Asia, Japan/China or India etc, much like The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant! Thank you. -- Ser Amantio di Nicolao Che dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 01:38, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
