Duplicate Image:Lusung Empire.jpg
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Image:Lusung Empire.jpg, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Image:Lusung Empire.jpg is a duplicate of an already existing article, category or image. To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Image:Lusung Empire.jpg, please affix the template to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that '''this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Descendents of Lakandula
Sorry, but Category:Descendants of Lakandula was deleted last week per this deletion discussion. Please don't recreate it. Thanks. TheCoffee (talk) 13:56, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

On a side note... I notice that you tend to make several small edits to articles in a short period of time. For instance, I see in your contribution history: In the interest of clarity in the article's history logs, try to keep your edits smaller in number... You can spend your time putting all your changes into one or two more substantial edits, using the "Show preview" button to preview your changes before finally posting your edit. Thanks. :) TheCoffee (talk) 14:01, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Luzon Empire, again
I've had a cursory look over Book 5 of 東西洋考. While a page did mention 呂宋國, proving that it indeed existed, there wasn't many other things said about Luzon other than how to get there from Fujian and what it is near to. There wasn't any mention of Emperor Bing or Zhang Shijie or the Battle of Yamen. (And the last two pages weren't talking about Luzon.) So...is this claim really in 東西洋考? _dk (talk) 21:24, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Again, ask someone who actually lives in Luzon before posting such an insult to our country. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.76.251.35 (talk) 10:04, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Please share your thoughts about the Luzon Empire article here-- Lenticel ( talk ) 22:40, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

OK! Besides, I was the one who alerted Tambayan Phillipines to that absurdity anyway. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.76.252.228 (talk) 09:51, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

=Kundiman is purely Tagalog in origin not Kapampangan=

Mr/Miss Ushiwaka. I have edited the Kundiman article to correct some unsupported claims and allegations that you have posted with regards to the origin of the Kundiman as Kapampangan (or originating from the province of Pampangga). Could you cite your references or any historical documents written by reliable scholars and historians to support your claim that the Kundiman of the Tagalogs originated from the province of Pampangga? I have done quite a major research about the Kundiman and nowehere did I find any reference written by scholars, musicologist and historians that the Tagalog Kundiman was "originally a Kapampangan war song" as you claimed it to be.

Please be more careful and responsible by doing a more rigid and serious research on Philippine Music before posting about the Kundiman in the Wikipedia. Many Filipino students depends on Wikipedia.

Please find time to read the following works and articles written by reliable writers, scholars and historians which points to the fact that the Kundiman is purely Tagalog in origin and not Kapampoangan [Note: some are written in Spanish so please use any online "Language Tool" available over the net to translate them] :


 * Literature; A Historico-Critical Study" by Prof. Eufronio Melo Alip, Manila: U. S. T. Press, 1930. pp.17,65
 * Music and Theater of the Filipino People" by R.C. Banas, from El Filipino: Revista mensual Vol I No. 9 (1926)
 * Filipino Folk Song" by Percy Hill from the Philippine magazine. [Vol. XXIII, no. 3, p.147]Philippine Education Co. Manila, 1926. p.147
 * Indio Batangueno" by Wenceslao E. Retana, Manila, Tipo-Litografia de Chofre y Cia, 1888. p.25
 * Filipinos" by Don José Montero y Vidal, Madrid, Tip. del Asilo de Huérfanos del Sagrado Corazon de Jesús, 1883. p.106
 * Tagalian Merriness" by Karl Scherzer from "Circumnavigation of the Globe by the Austrian Frigate Novara in the Years 1857, 1858 & 1859."
 * de la conversación Familiar Español-Tagalog by V.M. de Avella,Manila, C. Miralles, 1874. p. 116

You might as well visit the National Library of the Philippines in Manila to read Dr. Francisco Santiago's 1931 work entitled  "The Development of Music in the Philippines" before posting anything about Philippine Music in the Wikipedia.

Maraming salamat po. Ian-James R. Andres Ian Andres (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 03:16, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

File source problem with File:Luzon_Empire.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Luzon_Empire.jpg. 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, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a [ list of your uploads]. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
