"Gabungan Baharu"

edit

Hey there, it'd be great if you could provide a source that says the name of the new governing coalition in Johor is called "Gabungan Baharu". The only sources that mention "Gabungan Baharu" are Malay language news sources, which leads me to believe the usage of "Gabungan Baharu" is just to denote the fact that the coalition is new. Sisuvia (talk) 04:08, 6 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi. At the moment, I do not have any English information, however, during a press conference at his residence earlier today, Johor Menteri Besar, Hasni Mohammad, when asked regarding the official name of the coalition, explained that they are still called "Gabungan Baharu", and they are waiting for the federal government to determine whether or not the state government in Johor should use the same name or not.
He said: "What we all know right now is that we have a federal government and state governments. I would like to ensure that the state government (of Johor) and the federal government shall be able to work together as a team, helping each other out; and so we chose to let the federal government choose to name this government, whether or not shall we use the name "Perikatan Nasional" as the name for this coalition. We shall wait until the federal government make their decision."
Original untranslated transcription: "Yang kita semua sedia maklum bahawa kita ada kerajaan persekutuan dan kita ada kerajaan-kerajaan di peringkat negeri. Adalah menjadi hasrat saya untuk memastikan bahawa kerajaan negeri dan kerajaan persekutuan itu akan dapat berkerja sebagai satu pasukan yang saling bantu-membantu, dan kita memilih untuk memberi kerajaan persekutuan terlebih dahulu untuk menamakan gabungan yang ada sama ada akan meneruskan Perikatan Nasional sebagai nama gabungan baharu; kita akan tunggu sehingga kerajaan persekutuan membuat keputusan."
A recording of the press conference can be found here, and the part I mentioned was at minute 15:23.
English news sites (and even Malay) tend to use "Perikatan Nasional" due to a common misconception that they are indeed called that. However, since the government was formed before the Perikatan Nasional government was officially formed on the 1st of March, they did not use the name Perikatan Nasional. In the Johor Palace's statement announcing the formation of the new government, they wrote "gabungan baharu" when denoting the fact that it is a new coalition, and "Gabungan Baharu" when referring to the coalition since it is the name of the coalition/a proper noun.

Logo of Perikatan Nasional

edit

Hello, I note that PN has changed their logo to be plaintext only, as seen from this photo from the unveiling ceremony.

I have created a near SVG replica of it (PNG version here) with the correct font glyphs, but considering you are the uploader of the Perikatan Nasional logo (which is very nice, compared to the plaintext version), would you consent for me to overwrite it, or would you wish to upload your own version? Seloloving (talk) 00:29, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi there. Yes, you may overwrite my upload, I believe that would be easier as we won't need to replace the images where it has been used. Although I think the colour of the field may be adjusted according to the image from this news article. Thanks for the heads up! --EmpAhmadK (talk) 02:12, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
@EmpAhmadK - should I use the colour of the clean image (presumably from a source, though Google has not turned up anything) or the one from the photo I linked? Seeking your recommendation as they are both from Malaysiakini. Seloloving (talk) 03:08, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Seloloving - I think using the colour of the clean image (#003152) would be better since it would match with what they use, since it's also the same one used by Perikatan Nasional members (e.g., Deputy Minister of Youth and Sports as seen here). But I guess it would be up to you since you're uploading it. I think a slight difference in the colouration doesn't matter since they haven't specified the specific colour code yet. -- EmpAhmadK (talk) 13:11, 30 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Centre for Foundation Studies (IIUM) moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Centre for Foundation Studies (IIUM), is not suitable as written to remain published. It appears there is a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. 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, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. As per WP policy, please do not move into mainspace yourself. Onel5969 TT me 13:54, 23 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Standard Notice: Syrian Civil War

edit
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Syrian Civil War and ISIL. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

As a note, per these community-authorized general sanctions, there is a one-revert rule in place for all articles related to the Syrian Civil War and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, broadly construed. This means that an editor in this area may make no more than one revert per article per 24 hour period, unless an obvious exception applies. Please let me know if you have any questions about this. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 21:22, 8 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of 2026 Nobel Peace Prize

edit

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on 2026 Nobel Peace Prize requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.nobelprize.org/nomination/peace/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Your contributed article, 2026 Israel attack on Tehran

edit

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2026 Israel attack on Tehran. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – [[:{{{article}}}]]. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at [[:{{{article}}}]]. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at [[Talk:{{{article}}}|the article's talk page]].

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Bneu2013 (talk) 06:41, 28 February 2026 (UTC)Reply
