Greetings. What you said on the Talk:Falun Gong page has inspired me to ask you if you would be interested to put together an article on the Zhong Gong group. It doesn't have to be much at first, just some background info, places, dates and links to related concepts. It sounds like it would be an interesting article. Cheers, --Fire Star 火星 22:40, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I have put up something on Zhong Gong though more is needed. What is interesting is that Zhong Gong is identical to Falun Gong except it had eight exerisize postures where Falun Gong has five. I need to talk to someone who practiced this type of Chi Gong. --Otomo 22:48, 11 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you felt my message implied a personal attack towards you, then i apologize. Know that the post you made calling that unknown user a "scoundrel" is a bold and direct personal attack towards him. Not only that, but the section in which you posted your comments speaking ill of the falun gong practitioners is very unappropriate. What you did, wether it was a very significant offense or not, was a direct violation of one of Wikipedia policies and its called "incivility" and its not only you but many other editors (specially the critics and forgive me if im being too categorical) who have continued to create an uncivil environment on the talk page. But there is no official mediator for now so i doubt anybody cares about it anyway. I personally and firmly believe one should respect others in order to properly ask for respect.--Andres18 05:36, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Arbcom[edit]

Informal mediator WikieZach| talk is preparing to move the Falun Gong mediation case to the Wikipedia:Arbcom. I have been asked to alert concerned (to the best of my knowledge) editors about this matter. Thank you. --Fire Star 火星 23:03, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I recently agreed to mediate that case. I notice that you were listed as an involved party, but did not sign saying that you agreed to mediation. Anyways, I just wanted to let you know that you are still welcome to participate. Thanks! Armedblowfish (talk|mail) 16:47, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned fair use image (Image:Time Magazine Master Li Interview.pdf)[edit]

Thanks for uploading Image:Time Magazine Master Li Interview.pdf. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Peng Shanshan[edit]

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Peng Shanshan, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. Ohconfucius 12:00, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An article you created maybe deleted soon: Tools which can help you[edit]

Looks like you were not notified of the AfD:

The article you created: Zhong Gong may be deleted from Wikipedia.

There is an ongoing debate about whether the article you created should be deleted here:

The faster you respond on this page, the better chance the article you created can be saved.

Finding sources which mention the topic of the article you created is the very best way to avoid an article being deleted {{Findsources3}}:

Find sources for Zhong Gong: google news recent, google news old, google books, google scholar, NYT recent, NYT old, a9, msbooks, msacademic ...You can then cite these results in the Article for deletion discussion.

Also, there are several tools and helpful editors on Wikipedia who can help you:

1. List the page on Article Rescue Squadron. You can get help listing your page on the Article Rescue Squadron talk page.
2. At any time, you can ask any administrator to move your article to a special page. (Called userfication)
3. You can request a mentor to help you: Wikipedia:Adopt-a-User. But don't wait for a mentor to respond to you before responding on the article for deletion page.
4. When trying to delete a page, veteran editors love to use a lot of rule acronyms. These acronyms don't need to intimidate you. Here is a list of acronyms you can use yourself: Deletion debate acronyms, which will help you argue that the article should be kept.

If the page you created is deleted, you also have many options available. Good luck! Ikip (talk) 02:06, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
