Unspecified source for Image:Guangdong outline map.png
Thanks for uploading Image:Guangdong outline map.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [ this link]. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 17:17, 26 June 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Jusjih 17:17, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

'Shum chun'
I think you will find that 'Shum Chun' and the like have been used for 'colloquial' versions of the Cantonese pronunciation of 深圳. For example, Wikipedia has an article on the 'Sham Chun River'. Also, see the 1898 treaty and English-language reports of the time. m.e. (talk) 11:44, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

That's my point. There is a "Sham Chun River" in written records, but there's no such thing as a "Sham Chun" city (as far as I know). I agree "Sham Chun" sounds remotely like the Cantonese pronunciation of 深圳, but bear in mind these same characters sound a dozen different ways depending on which Chinese dialect you're using. Check under "Transliterations" for a few examples. Imagine adding all the variants into the article...
