Talk:New immigrants in Hong Kong

message: So I've deleted basically the entire article because the whole thing was copied from Education in Hong Kong.  I've re-worked the intro, added a stub and a category, and put a  tag at the top.  --- Hong Qi Gong 04:09, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Content deleted 

message: A GOOD introduction is very important for this important article in Wikipedia. Hong Qi Gong, why did you not keep the lines: 
"But when it has been becoming more socially and morally integrated, "adaptation" of migrants become a social issue. Assimilation, accommodation and alienation happen in this tiny (post) immigrant society like Hong Kong."  ?
These lines tell the changing faces of "immigration" in Hong Kong. Immigration in 60s, 70s, 80s and the era after the handover are different.--147.8.122.24 08:30, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, the explanation is simple.  This article talks about the new immigrants themselves, and not only the social issues that they may cause in HK society.  I absolutely think that the article needs to discuss these social issues, but the article should include more than that.  It should have their characteristics, their demographic information, etc etc.  The social issues that HK experiences because of them should only be part of the article.  --- Hong Qi Gong 15:36, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I am wondering should this article be titled China immigrants in Hong Kong? I found it is exclusively about China people and lack of coverage on immigrants who come from other countries essentially expats who permanently settle in, asylum seeker and other professional talents who are not from China. cheers  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wingthesnowman (talk • contribs) 11:44, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

message: It's true that the Mozilla Calendar project has been discontinued. It's now being worked on under the Sunbird brand with a Lighting extension for FF and TB.
I suggest that the page is moved to a Mozilla Sunbird page, with historical reference to the Mozilla Calendar project.

thread_title: New project

message: I've decided that Mozilla Calendar is part of Sunbird's historical background rather than a complete application in itself. It's just a name, and the codebase of Sunbird and Lightning derives from whatever progress was made on the original Mozilla Calendar project. This merger would mean that Sunbird Project becomes a very comprehensive article, and Mozilla Calendar would redirect to this. In 5 days, if no-one comments I will start the merge myself and leave it to you to revert as you see fit if you feel my decision was not appropriate, as per WP:MM. If a consensus agrees with me, I will do the merge sooner. Thanks, T. Moitie 14:48, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This is a handsome creation about a beautiful place--a real addition to Wikipedia.  I came here after seeing your request for feedback at WP:FEED. It has a lot of good web-based sources already, but you can find 34 sources (for example) in Google Books using this tool:
* Searching for "Ooty botanical" 
Wikipedia prefers article titles to use the subject's common name (e.g. Bill Clinton) when it differs from the official name (e.g. William Jefferson Clinton).

Talk:Eastbourne Pier

message: The current text of this article (along with many other places online) confidently states that the pier is precisely 1000 feet long, or 303 metres. Is this true, and if so can we have a solid reference to back it up? 
Or is this a case of false precision, where "about 1000 feet" should actually have been converted to "about 300 metres". Even more suspiciously, 1000 feet ≠ 303 feet anyway: 1000 feet is closer to 305 metres, so 303 metres is only 994 feet.
Anyone have any idea where we might find a "definitive" measurement of the pier's length? - IMSoP (talk) 22:30, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Talk:Cat and Fiddle Inn

message: The image of the plaque shows a cat with a fiddle. The caption to this image doesn't correspond, saying: "The name is said to derive from the French 'le chat fidele', 'the faithful cat'."
Is this derivation correct? Or did the name or pub-sign come from the nursery rhyme Hey Diddle Diddle? Or from somewhere else? --David Edgar 10:16, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also Caton le Fidele, a governor of Calais (Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable). Although the "chat fidele" derivation is widespread (and I don't see that the existence of the plaque disproves it), it seems to be something of a folk etymology so I'll remove it.

thread_title: Name derivation

message: The tenancy has changed (prior to June, 2013) since the previous edit. and therefore reference to a 'recently' commissioned survey by 'the landlord' is no longer current and required rephrasing.  No doubt, people will consult this page with a view to looking up the 'claim', but it does not originate with the current landlord and any measure taken by a previous landlord is no longer 'recent'.  On first-hand information (not suitable for inclusion in the article itself), on Thursday, 20th June, 2013 at approximately 3pm, I overheard a conversation between a patron and bar staff (both strangers to me) in which the claim by a Yorkshire pub to being the highest in England was acknowledged -- it seemed to me like a dead controversy no longer meriting the prominence given in the article as previously edited.

message: Pier 39 is known for buskers, and a collection of famous buskers such as the 1970's human jazz jukebox which was a cardboard box painted like a jukebox with a slot for money, then a horn would stick out to play jazz... another 1970's opera singer would sing as the boats came in with tourists and then two girls would run around with hats jingling coins for tips. The latter would make $300 an hour. Photos of buskers and information about them would be excellent.
