Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Gepard-class frigate, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page VLS. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

An article you recently created, Vietnam Defence Industry, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Thanks for uploading File:VPAF Su-30MK2 strike.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 {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> 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, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 04:04, 19 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Non-free content must meet all of the non-free content criteria, including criteria 1 which covers replaceability. In order to meet this criteria, it is not sufficient that a free image cannot be found. It must also be the case that one cannot be created. For existing things such as the Daegu-class frigates, a free image could be created so any non-free image is considered replaceable and cannot be used as non-free content. -- Whpq (talk) 04:08, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Hwi.padam. I've reverted your edit in the article "R-360 Neptune". It might be invisible to the naked eye, but your <nowiki/> tag badly affects "cruisers":

• Before your edit: Slava-class cruisers (format 2); Slava-class cruisers (default)
• After your edit: Slava-class cruisers (format 2); Slava-class cruisers (default)

Word endings are blended by default (Help:Wikitext#Blend link). Thus, there is no use in making the final letter "s" non-wikified. Please, avoid using <nowiki/> tags indiscriminately (see also WP:NOWIKI). In most cases, these tags are not needed or replaceable by special templates (e.g. {{''}}, {{'}}, {{'s}}).--Russian Rocky (talk) 17:49, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for the notification but I believe that there might be some mistakes here. I have contributed mainly in the \see also\ and the infobox section and I don't remember if I have touched the Slava one (the \operational history\). Hwi.padam (talk) 20:23, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply, Hwi.padam. Then, it probably happened due to some glitch of VisialEditor (see Special:Tags, "nowiki added"). Try to be more careful when you use VisualEditor. Good luck!--Russian Rocky (talk) 20:53, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Hwi.padam. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Vietnam Defence Industry, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 12:02, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Hwi.padam. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Vietnam Defence Industry".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:28, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in After Like (song), disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 13:45, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hwi.padam, please stop adding unofficial cover to songs articles such as After Like (song). There are no official cover for singles that are released together with the album/EP/single album, and the cover of album/EP/single album shouldn't be added to songs articles and should only be used in the article of the album/EP/single album. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 02:04, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It is acceptable looking at Whistle (Blackpink song), Boombayah, Playing with Fire (Blackpink song), Kill This Love (song). Therefore, they are directly extracted from IVE's original content, how can't they be "unofficial"? Hwi.padam (talk) 02:08, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Besides that, I also have concerns related to the stylizing rules that it is not accepted when I wrote '(stylized as "After LIKE")' after the standard After Like name. Why was it reverted when it is acceptable in most Taylor Swift's pages (for example Folklore (Taylor Swift album) or Blackpink. I don't understand why my additional clarification on the stylizing stuffs got rejected. Please reply. Hwi.padam (talk) 02:17, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Hwi.padam For those Blackpink, you mentioned I have checked the image location however all of them are unsourced, with text listing as YG Entertainment. However, there're no indication where exactly the uploader took it even from hence those images are eligible for deletion. Furthermore, for File:Logo of single After LIKE.jpg, you in fact cropped it from a celebration image with no official indications from Starship Entertainment that it's actual official song cover for "After Like" itself. As far as I'm of, "After Like" itself uses File:Ive – After Like.png in all streaming platforms (Apple Music, Spotify, etc), in Billboard's chart listing, and Circle Digital Chart listing, in which, we don't include album cover intended for the album/EP/single album/etc for the single/song's article. For stylization, this has been addressed here clearly by SMcCandlish hence the Taylor Swift one is incorrect. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 02:39, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the clarification. Btw, I have removed the unsourced cover pictures of the mentioned BP tracks, unknown if it is approriate or not... Hwi.padam (talk) 03:01, 1 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, is the static image used in [1] qualified as the cover picture for BP's Shut Down? I don't know if YouTube is qualified as "streaming platform", but it is actually used to represent the single officially. Hwi.padam (talk) 18:57, 2 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hwi.padam I noticed that the emblem we struggled to fix (Emblem_of_Vietnam_(fixed_for_revision).svg) has been removed and substituted with the old file. What can we do to update the wrong version? MingoBerlingo (talk) 14:46, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, it was unfortunate for the moderators to misunderstand our intention and messed up with the files. The only thing that I could think about is...restarting the procedures that we have been doing but I doubt that the moderators will better understand our intention this time. Directly get in touch with a mod is a good idea, but I'm yet to find any trustworthy name to contact with.
Sorry, you did great works, but your works are being mistreated. I will try to look for away to make your works recieving the loves that they deserve, and with me, to clarify and increase the quality of the Vietnamese state-related topics.  Hwi.padam   18:43, 13 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Bamboo Airways, you may be blocked from editing. Jetstreamer ^Talk 18:43, 6 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Him Lam new owner section was cited under Bamboo Airways#Founders' crisis, restructuring and new owner. It's not any "unsourced". On the infobox, I simply move Quy Nhon on top because it is the business registration place as well as the "de jure" hub of Bamboo, since the Vietnamese authoritis stated that there is no more space in HAN and SGN so Bamboo was encouraged to make a theoretical hub in Quy Nhon. Again, it is not any unsourced.  Hwi.padam   02:44, 7 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry to jump into discussion. @Jetstreamer: Per WP:INFOBOXCITE, references are generally not needed in infoboxes if the content is cited elsewhere in the article and in this case, it is cited on the last paragraph of Bamboo Airways#Founders' crisis, restructuring and new owner. Him Lam Group can be considered as parent company of Bamboo Airways as it owns enough shares in Bamboo Airways to control management and operations by influencing or electing its board of directors.

Hey Donald!

Recently in the page “1955 State of Vietnam Referendum,” I discovered this:

In the section called, “Organization of the referendum,” there is this particular paragraph:

Lansdale cautioned Diệm against electoral fraud, confident that Diệm would win a free election: "While I'm away I don't want to suddenly read that you have won by 99.99%. I would know that it's rigged then." U.S. officials thought that a fair election would have seen Diệm poll between 60% and 70% of the vote.[1]

I discovered that the part above is completely fabricated. And it’s been sitting there for 15 years. I investigated the source, and I present to you below the two pages that are were cited.

It references the exact same topic, but completely contradicts what was originally written on Wikipedia. The quote is completely fabricated, too.

I have highlighted the parts that is directly about the subject at hand to provide evidence.

(Page 223)

“…French government in Paris meanwhile denounced Diem, and Bao Dai entered the fray from his château on the Côte d'Azur, attempting to manipulate factions in Saigon. Diem seemed to be finished by late April. Reporting from Saigon, the influential newspaper columnist Joseph Alsop wrote him off as "virtually impotent." As was often the case, Alsop erred. On April 27, Diem ordered the Binh Xuyen to cease its deployments in the city. The Binh Xuyen disobeyed and Diem's army attacked its strongholds the next day. The Binh Xuyen riposted by firing shells into the park around the presidential palace, and soon Saigon was a battle- ground as the rival forces fought street by street. Artillery and mortars obliterated the city's poor districts, killing five hundred civilians and rendering some twenty thousand homeless. As the fighting raged, Bao Dai summoned Diem to France, hoping to neutralize him. Diem refused to budge. When Bao Dai's officers tried to oust him, Diem turned his generals against them. By the end of May, the Binh Xuyen had been routed and its boss, Bay Vien, flew to asylum in Paris. Diem had prevailed but at a cost that he would have to pay later. Nearly two thousandvdefeated Binh Xuyen, Hoa Hao, and Cao Dai fighters joined the underground Communist forces concealed in the recesses of the Mekong delta, and they would emerge afterward among the Vietcong guerrillas. The United States rewarded Diem for his stubborn courage. A new American ambassador, G. Frederick Reinhardt, landed in Saigon to express unequivocal U.S. confidence in the regime. Five months later, Diem consolidated his power. With Lansdale and other Americans helping, he deposed Bao Dai in a referendum, and promoted himself to the rank of chief of state. The election, like others to follow, was a test of authority rather than an exercise in democracy. With Bao Dai far away, Diem's activists could easily exert pressure on the voters. Lansdale, with his talent for advertising, showed them how to design the ballots in order to sway the electorate. Those for Diem were red, which signified good luck, and those for Bao Dao green, the color of misfortune. Diem's agents were present at the polling stations. One voter recalled the scene in a village near Hué:'They told us to put the red ballot into envelopes and throw the green ones into the wastebasket. A few people, faithful to Bao Dai, disobeyed. As soon as they left, the agents w e n tafter them, and roughed them up. The agents poured pepper sauce down their nostrils, or forced water down their throats. They beat one of my relatives to a pulp.' In several places, including Saigon, the tally of votes for Diem exceed-

(Page 224)

ed the number of registered voters. He claimed to have won 98.2 percent of the vote having spurned American advice to aim for amore plausible 60 or 70 percent. What the Americans failed to understand was that his mandarin mentality could not accept the idea of even minority resistance to his rule. With no compunctions whatsoever, Diem again renounced the nationwide elections prescribed by the Geneva agreement because, he said, theycould not be "absolutely free."'

If the Communist takeover of the north alarmed Washington and worried Diem, it only partially satisfied Ho Chi Minh and his comrades, who had been denied complete victory at the Geneva conference table. Within a year of the accord, moreover, they could sense that the elections scheduled to unify Vietnam would never take place. Diem refused to discuss election preparations, and the United States indirectly backed him, saying that the matter "should be left up to the Vietnamese themselves." The Soviet Union and China did nothing to press for a political settlement. So the deadline, July 1956, passed without any action to fulfill the most important clause in the Geneva agreement, and ti looked as if Vietnam would become another truncated nation, like Germany and Korea. Indeed, the Soviet Union even suggested a perma- nent partition by proposing in early 1957 that both North and South Vietnam be admitted to the United Nations as "two separate states. which differ from one another in political and economic structure." The United States, unwilling to recognize a Communist regime, rebuffed the initiativea grievous mistake. For international endorsement of "two Vietnams" might have averted the later confrontation. When Ho Chi Minh returned to Hanoi in October 1954, after eight years in the jungle, his problems differed from those that faced Diem. There were no fractious sects and gangsters to challenge his authority. The French army was leaving the north in orderly fashion, and the massive flight ofthe Catholics to the south made his control easier, since their fanatical anti-Communism would not nag him. He could also count on the fidelity of his soldiers and civilian cadres, whose loyalty had been tested during the struggle against France. But he was beset by severe economic difficulties. The war against the French had devastated the north. Railways had been disrupted, bridges blown up, buildings destroyed. On Diem's orders, departing anti-Communist Vietnamese had dismantled harbor installations, post offices, libraries, and hospitals, and stripped factories…:

I scrolled through the history of the article, and found out the individual who originally wrote the original paragraph:

Note that he calls himself “Yellow Monkey.”

As of now, my account is not automated yet, so I can’t edit anything. Could you please remove the fabricated information, and replace it with this?

“US officials advised Diem to claim 60-70% of the votes to make the election look plausible.”

Please make sure to provide your evidence and reasons in the article's Talk page.

Hi there, looks like you are mentioning the wrong account, since I'm not "Donald" and not really "mastered" in South Vietnamese-related topics. Since you mentioned "Donald", I guess that you wish to discuss with User:Donald Trung.  Hwi.padam   02:12, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Hwi.padam - sorry, I just reverted this sock's edits, but then thought that you might not want all this stuff on your talk page - please feel free to remove it, and to ping me if you get any more strange messages of this sort.
