10,000 Asia Challenge
Hi, I wondered if you'd be interested in joining WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge based on The 10,000 Challenge and WikiProject Africa/The 10,000 Challenge? The idea is to showcase the work being done on wikipedia across the continent, and inspire more people to create and work on countries which might not usually get much attention and then possibly running some contests to bring in new editors. Could be a way to highlight work needing doing for Burma and draw in new editors! Or perhaps set up a 1000 Challenge for South East Asia feeding into it? Not sure, but if interested add your name to the participants and I'll consider setting something up later in the month.♦ Dr. Blofeld  17:19, 8 October 2016 (UTC)

Thingyan
Hello I included, "Songkran" (main article) as it is the common term used in the Western world to refer to the Asian Lunar New Year celebrations that occur in April. Songkran in this instance does not refer to the Thai New Year but to all South/Southeast New Year festivals. In the West, it's a politically correct way of referring to the Asian Lunar New Years that occur in April. The reason for this is because a Burmese/Cambodian/Sri Lankan is not going to be happy if they are asked a question like, "Why do Burmese/Cambodians/Sri Lankans celebrate the Thai New Year when they aren't Thai?" That's why the term, "Songkran" is used as it is a neutral way of referring to those New Year celebrations. As for "Lunar New Year" again that's used in the Western world to refer to the Lunar New Year celebrations of East, South and Southeast Asia. It's a politically correct and neutral way of referring to the Lunar New Year celebrations in Asia. People often believe that the Chinese New Year is the only Lunar New Year celebration without realizing that the Vietnamese, Koreans, Burmese, Cambodians, Sri Lankan, Thais, Mongolians and many other Asian groups also celebrate the Lunar New Year at different times of the year. That's why I included them along with sources as "Thingyan" in the West is called "Songkran", "Burmese New Year" or sometimes "Lunar New Year". (121.219.253.149 (talk) 01:45, 27 December 2016 (UTC))


 * See the talk page under Thingyan. I guess I have a different understanding of what politically correct means. Sorry, Songkran is not a neutral way to call Thingyan. Hybernator (talk) 03:00, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I understand how you feel but here in the West that's what we call the festival, we can't let our opinions get in the way. There is no specific source that illustrates what I have stated it's just common sense. I selected those sources because they show examples of how the term is used in Australia and the United States. A note can be added next to it saying this only applies to the United States or we can put it somewhere else in the article if you want to. I included the smaller text in parenthesis to highlight how this term's definition is used only outside of Asia. It's just like the term, "Lunar New Year" I assume one who lives in Myanmar (Burma) would not refer to Thingyan as the "Lunar New Year" but in the West one might refer to it as the Lunar New Year to be more inclusive of other cultures that celebrate at that time of year. Both terms are umbrella terms they do not mean Thai New Year or Chinese New Year, in the West both terms mean Lunar New Year festivals celebrated in Asia. Also, I don't think it's right to call the sources on the Songkran page as unreliable they are from new sites in Australia and the US as well as travel books such as "Lonely Planet" and from official pages from venues and cities (e.g. Seattle, US) in both countries. You may not agree with the term, "Songkran" but that's what is used as an umbrella term in the Western world, the sources support that. We can't defy the information provided in the sources. (121.219.253.149 (talk) 04:46, 27 December 2016 (UTC))


 * It's not about how I feel. It's about following Wikipedia's guidelines -- one of which is to use reliable sources. And use the talk page under Thingyan. Thanks. Hybernator (talk) 04:56, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't know why you think those sources are "unreliable". Have you looked at the sources? (121.219.253.149 (talk) 04:58, 27 December 2016 (UTC))


 * Please read this: Identifying reliable sources. Hybernator (talk) 05:01, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes I am aware of that. Could you please tell me which source(s) are unreliable? I can't seem to find any. The first source is from a Buddhist temple in Australia. That source uses the term "Songkran" in reference to the definition that we are aware of here in Australia. That source is from an Australian perspective so it uses Australian terminology, one of which is "Songkran". The next source is from "Buddhist tourism", an American site with an American perspective. For Lunar New Year, the information comes from a book called, "Asian American Society: An Encyclopedia" written by Mary Yu Danico a professor of sociology in the Psychology and Sociology Department at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, USA. So why are you saying these sources are unreliable? As for the Songkran article, if you had a look at the sources you will see that there are sources from Lonely Planet, SBS, Ethnic Seattle and the The Daily Telegraph (Australia), among others. So can you tell me why you are calling all of them unreliable sources? This appears to be a case of Wikipedia:I just don't like it (121.219.253.149 (talk) 05:17, 27 December 2016 (UTC))

Nakhon Noi
Hi again, I was wondering if i could get you to review a new page on Nakhon Noi king of Lan Xang? The reign is noted in all the western sources i have on the Lao chronicles- but wondered if there was anything in the Burmese histories you have access to. At any rate, if he isn't mentioned (his reign was only a year- if that) i'd like to include a note clarifying that point. Thanks i really appreciate your help whenever you have time. P.s. i'll be continuing down the line so there will be future kings which fall within the time period of the Taungoo Empire. CheersStampyElephant (talk) 18:13, 1 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Hi the article is really well done, based on what you have available. Unfortunately, there isn't much on Nakhon Noi. The only mention I can find in the main chronicles that could be Nakhon Noi was in 1575 when Sen Soulintha and his (unnamed) son were sent to Mogaung to show the rebels there that Lan Xang had been defeated, and that they would face the same fate. Soulintha later won over Bayinnaung, and was given awards.
 * The problem, as mentioned before, is still that according to the Burmese chronicles, Maha Ouparit did not die in 1579. He died in Sep/Oct 1588. The Burmese did send a force to quell instabilities in 1579–80 because Ouparat couldn't get control. Mingyi Hnaung was first appointed to replace Ouparat. Nanda later changed his mind and appointed his son Prome in Feb 1589. Burmese chronicles do not say anything about appointing Soulintha to Lan Xang, or his son succeeding. Chronicles from that point on were focused almost exclusively on the war with Siam and later the collapse of the Pegu regime. But if Soulintha did succeed Ouparat it's likely in 1589.

WikiProject Women in Red/The World Contest
Hi. Thankyou for your participation in the challenge series or/and contests. In November The Women in Red World Contest is being held to try to produce new articles for as many countries worldwide and occupations as possible. There will be over $4000 in prizes to win, including Amazon vouchers and paid subscriptions. If this would appeal to you and you think you'd be interested in contributing new articles on women during this month for your region or wherever please sign up in the participants section. The articles done may also count towards the ongoing challenge. If you're not interested in prize money yourself but are willing to participate and raise money to buy books about women for others to use, this is also fine. Help would also be appreciated in drawing up the lists of missing articles. If you think of any missing articles please add them to the sub lists by continent at Missing articles. Thankyou, and if taking part, good luck!♦ Dr. Blofeld  08:41, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in study
Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, an intern at Wikimedia with the Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Replaceable fair use File:Hluttaw-Naypyidaw.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Hluttaw-Naypyidaw.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text  below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy.
