Agreed. If I find the time I will take it upon myself to introduce the ideas presented by J. Peter Brosius in his 1997 article "Endangered Forest, Endangered People: Environmentalist Representations of Indigenous Knowledge" which outlines how Western environmentalist activists have latched on to and misrepresented the "molong" concept among other aspects of Penan culture in order to further their own agendas (Brosius published the original descriptions of molong and much of Penan culture in general). 74.12.204.114 22:44, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Penan.GIF is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Penan.GIF

message: I removed this claim:
:The Penan language is linguistically interesting since it has six words for varying levels of "we" depending on how extensive the described group in the society is at the same time as having no word to say "thank you" or describe the status of a domestic animal. This provides a good example in discussion of the subject–object problem in philosophy and its relation to language and power.
Not only is the claim not given a source, but discussion about words which a language has or doesn't have and what this "proves" is a sticky subject. (For example, English has gendered words for uncle/aunt, son/daughter, brother/sister, mother/father, nephew/niece, but not for cousin - does that mean anything?)
For that matter, it's interesting that the example given as a missing word was not even one word in English! So it doesn't say whether Penan also uses a multi-word phrase like English's "thank you".
And especially claims that something is "a good example" should be sourced so that it doesn't look like original research or synthesis. --pne (talk) 13:20, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.
Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
