Re:
2006 East Timor crisis
Hello Thebainer! Fine, you are updating the article
2006 East Timor crisis. I am the editor of the German article. If you are on search for sources, just check the references at the German article. Most of them are in English and updated until today. ;-) --J. Patrick Fischer 17:05, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply

Thanks alot, I was maintaining this article from its creation, until my semester exams came a while ago and I ran out of time to work on it. I've been trawling through archives to catch up, though your selection of sources will be very helpful! --
I appreciate the update/correction on East Timor. Sometimes the information I get (in this case, from Statoids) is old and outdated - and the good thing about Wiki is how fast we can learn about updated information.
I did a few formatting changes to the subdistricts page - and the map I made I will relabel to Subdistricts (instead of Municipalities). Might I suggest this - add an article that talks about the definition and applicable usage of suco? Because village is the English term. If we have an entry for the subnational entity of suco, then the article can remain more cultural. :) Oh, and if you have any reference to maps of the Municipalities, I would gladly work on creating some.

3RR Rule
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 14:17, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
User J. Patrick Fischer (talk) is removing systematically the symbols of the city alleging they are not used anymore. The problem is that he doesn´t quote any relevant source to remove the symbols and prove they are not used anymore, despite there´s a law supporting them.

Hello Excirial. I requested for several times for help, but nothing happend. I asked for a third oppinion, I announced the edit war and I announced the vandalism of User:Domeleixo. The discussion at the talk page is about the CoA and flag of Dili, but Domaleixo is deleting the sourced chapter about the Administration, too, although I warned him. Anyhow, Domaleixo is insulting the other users in the discussion. There are three against his sole oppinion. There is high time for an administrator to stop him. --J.

As you can see: There are several opinions against Domaleixo and he is trying again worldwide to press his image inside. There is really the need for an administrator. --J. Patrick Fischer (talk) 09:22, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Exciral! Domaleixo changed again the article Dili against the opinion of four people, including the "third opinon". He is offending everyone and is not following the Wikiquette. It is high time for administrators to intervene. --J. Patrick Fischer (talk) 14:58, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, i remember sighing earlier this morning after i saw the page history. I would advice making an
Merebau and me made several reports at AN3 and there was even a "third opinion", who supported the opinion of the majority. You warned Domaleixo not to go on with the edit war, but he is still doing it as IP-socket puppet. It cost a lot of time to repair Domaleixos doings and I want to respect your request not to go on with edit war, but the only solution this way would be, to accept Domaleixo's minority one-person-opinion. I do not think, that is the right way. --J. Patrick Fischer (talk) 15:16, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The only report i see on ANI is the report made by Domaleixo, which is apparently not being actioned due to
undo or revert to previous revisions? I assume you know it, but it is always better to say it is possible, then to find our someone is doing it the hard way. :) Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 15:29, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply

Other then this you could also open a
SSP case regarding Domaleixo, as i would argue it is quite clear that the IP users are also him. Seeing his last block reason only reinforces this suspicion. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 15:29, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply

Didn't you ask me NOT to re-edit all the time? ;-)
It is very difficult for an non-native-English-speaker to understand the several different report options and procedures. I gave up trying to understand the sockpuppet report procedure. I made reports at "Edit war" and "Third opinion request", but by now I really get lost in this bureaucratism. In German Wikipedia it is quite simple. If there is a problem, administrators are acting after a request quite fast. --J. Patrick Fischer (talk) 15:37, 22 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
If you are not re-editing, what time is spend cleaning up then? :P
I agree that the
WP:SSP page is one of the least accessible report pages due to its somewhat unusual report mechanism - i remember botching the first two reports myself.

I don't speak English, but I will try to answer: in the article on Batek Island
in the Spanish Wikipedia, I had doubts because the French wikipedia says that the dispute between Timor and Indonesia was resolved in 2004.
"En 2004 Colonel indonésien Moesanip a dit, que cette revendication est abandonnée en 2004 lorsque le ministre Est-timorais des Affaires étrangères, José Ramos-Horta, reconnait la souveraineté indonésienne sur l'île.1 Le gouvernement de Timor oriental n' accepte jamais ceci officielle".
"english: Jose Ramos-Horta, recognizes Indonesian sovereignty over the island"
but when I saw you added the new source, with other information about the dispute is active
I understand the changes in this article in Spanish.

I really haven't had much time to think this over, but for example, are you sure Malay Archipelago is the best choice?

These are things that should be discussed and why it's a good idea to talk about page moves first, before renaming. --RacerX11Talk to meStalk me 19:16, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'm seriously confused. According to Hull and evidently Engelenhoven (2006), which I don't have access to,[2] Dadu'a is spoken in Galoli territory west of Manatuto town by immigrants from Atauro, and the three Atauran dialects are the three R's that are erroneously called "Adabe" in Ethnologue. (I don't know what the real Adabe on the mainland is. Maybe Bunak?) That would explain why Dadu'a has been thought to be a dialect of Galoli.[3] Indeed, Bowden & Hajek (2007)p. 12 show Rahesuk as the dialect of both central and north Atauro. However, census data shows the north of Atauro to be the densest region for Dadu'a (indeed, Ethnologue shows this region as being Galoli-speaking, perhaps having mistaken the nature of Galoli influence on Dadu'a in Manatuto as meaning that Atauran Dadu'a is a Galoli dialect), with Rahesuk spoken in the center of the island (here).
So, is the 2010 census correct and Hull wrong? 2ary sources claim that Hull says Dadu'a is a Wetarese (as opposed to Galoli) dialect, but AFAICT he never mentions it. — kwami (talk) 23:36, 27 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello Kwami!
Dadu'a is spoken on Manatuto coast, surrounded of Gaoli-speaker. Census (compare to map) and Hull have same opinion. Y
Hull call Dadu'a an Wetarese dialect. Same the R3 at Atauro.
Your source (Penn) says Dadu'a has influence of Galoli, but "the closest relatives to Dadu'a are the 3 varieties of Ataúro". So, Hull and Penn do not have different opinions. Dadu'a seems to be a Wetar dialect.
Different informations are about, which is the dominant Wetar-dialect in de:Biqueli, the north of Atauro island. Nearly 92 % of Biqueli people are speaking Dadu'a according Census, A little more than 1 % are using Rahesuk, which is dominating Central and North central Atauro. 6 % are speaking Tetum Prasa and a little minority Makasae Census in suco Biqueli. Hull et al. do not giving figures about the number of Rahesuk speakers there. The first counting of mother tongue speakers was in 2006, maybe Hull's sources are not acurated, because his papers are older, although he was director of Instituto Nacional de Linguística Osttimors until 2007.
Other possibility: People in Northern Atauro are calling their language Dadu'a, although it is closer to Rahesuk, than to Timor-Dadu'a!
Don't let be confused by the map, which is showing the percentage of Dadu'a speakers in evrey suco. Only 1.656 Dadu'a of 3.146 in whole East Timor are living in Dili district. 1.400 are living in Manatuto, which making them there nearly as big group.

I see that you've removed the image of the Air Macau Airbus from the article about Baucau Airport, for the reasons you've given in the edit summary.
I too was somewhat sceptical about the image when I first saw it, especially as there was also the tail of an ANA airliner in the background. However, when I looked at the image more closely, and did a bit of googling of images, the mountain in the background started to look very much like the very distinctively shaped mountain south east of Baucau airport.
If you consider the position of the Air Macau airliner, it looks very much as if the image was taken from the Dili to Baucau highway at the north western perimeter of Baucau Airport, looking south east towards the mountain. The aircraft is turning around near the northern end of the runway, either after landing from the south, or after taxying out to take off towards the south. And the ANA aircraft is parked on the apron on the eastern side of the runway, exactly where you would expect it to be parked in such an image.
I don't know whether you've travelled on that highway, but I did in 2018, so the point from where I think the image was created is not completely unfamiliar to me.
As to when the image was created, I suspect that it was in July 2014, during or immediately before or after the 10th CPLP Summit held in Dili. Lots of government officials visited Dili from around the world to attend that summit, and it wouldn't be in the least surprising if some of their aircraft landed at Baucau instead of Dili.
You might want to ask your friends in Timor Leste what they think, but I believe that the image is a genuine image of Baucau Airport, probably taken in July 2014.
Sure, the runway was not in good condition in 2017, but that was three years later, whereas July 2014 was only two years after the UN vacated the airport. You should also bear in mind that the runway is still in use today for small piston engined aircraft - ie it still isn't completely out of order. Bahnfrend (talk) 14:07, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your feedback. I will ask, if someone has an idea. Generally it would be only possible, they used Baucau airport, if Dili airport was out of order in this time. The planes are not too big for Dili. J. Patrick Fischer (talk) 14:35, 25 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period. Additionally, users who perform several reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. When in dispute with another editor you should first try to discuss controversial changes to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. Should that prove unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. If the edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 14:17, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
