Hi Jacklee, I saw you reverted my edit on International rankings of Singapore. The Henley Index is an advertising tool for Henley & Partners, which is a company that assists people with international buying and citizenship. The "index" does not disclose any methodology or sources; it's just a list they release yearly to attract more business (that's why I referred to it as spam). If a visa-free country number would be useful to the article, a neutral, reliable source would be the IATA database, which is available through airline websites such as KLM or Star Alliance websites. - Gump Stump (talk) 20:04, 6 January 2010 (UTC)
The Wiki articles states that he was born in Little Hereford in Hertfordshire I think that this is incorrect and should be Herefordshire, as if you click on the link to Little Hereford you get taken to the page for the place in Herefordshire.
The mistake may have originally arisen in late 19th early 20th century encyclopedias I am reading from a copy of The Harmsworth Encyclopedia c.1910 in which the incorrect place of Hertfordshire is given.
The entry in this work also shows an alternative name of Husins

In this article, I see the navigation diaries referred to as "ruttiers". All of my experience and research has shown this spelling - rutters.
Comments?
Sources for the spelling in the article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.7.215.46 (talk) 22:46, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
Just to let you know that I've reviewed Parliament of Singapore and High Court of Singapore. Let me know if you've got any questions or if there's anything I can help with. Cheers, Rebecca (talk) 08:21, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
Letting you know I have opened a good article reassessment for Lloyd Owen, an article to which you are a main contributor. You can read my concerns at Talk:Lloyd Owen/GA1. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 17:27, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi. Can you offer your opinion in this discussion? Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 23:53, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi. can you replace the skyscrapers infoboxes in articles on Singapore hotels with infobox hotel as with Conrad Centennial Singapore and Raffles Hotel etc. Thanks Dr. Blofeld White cat 21:55, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jacklee,
I'm curious as to why you removed the video I posted - Georgia Blames Olympics for Luger Kumaritashvili’s Death. This is a freely available video, there is no copyright infringement, and above all it was highly relevant.
Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by 145.103.102.62 (talk) 15:24, 25 February 2010 (UTC)
Yeah, unfortunately I didn't get on Wikipedia that day. I briefly saw a change on my watchlist on my iPhone, but didn't see that a 13,000 character change was made (if I did, I would have quickly reverted it). I felt bad reverting it, when I saw that you were still working on it, but I tried to do it quickly to prevent you from having to do any more. I have seen massive plot expansions before on GA/FAs, so I try and be sure to check the history to see if there was already a briefer and better-written summary. Anyway, thanks for helping out with the plot. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 00:40, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
Following this message on my talk page, I am going to take over this review as it appears that the original reviewer has no time to complete it. It has been hanging fire for some time and I aim to wrap up outstanding issues within the standard seven days. I shall read the article over first and then post a review tomorrow, 22 March. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 23:45, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
The article Parliament of Singapore you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Parliament of Singapore for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of said article. If you oppose this decision, you may ask for a reassessment. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 04:09, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello... sorry it has taken a while to pass this along. In a nutshell, the "award" information has been removed because it is nothing but spam, promotional material added by single-purpose editors over the past few years. I've even tracked down an AfD from 2007 that led to the deletion of over a dozen articles about the "awards". At the time, the nominator asserted that (with regard to the school's other practice of awarding honourary degrees) "there was no evidence that the 'recipients' were aware of or accepted the 'honorary degrees'". The current round were added over the past few weeks; when challenged, the SPA simply added a "reference" URL that is owned by the school. Hope this helps; I've posted it at Dodger67's talk page as well. Cheers. --Ckatzchatspy 02:20, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
Hello Jacklee,
it would be very great if you could change you wiki-blog on the singaure graffiti sprayer Oliver Fricker in something anonymous. I'm a closed friend of him an it is not so fair to post his full name all over. Don't understand me wrong, what the Swiss guy did was not okay, but what would you do, if some one posts something about you, no matter if right or wrong....? You don't need to delete this article, just change the names of those two guys in "the Swiss" & "the Britain". And some things you have writen on here are defently wrong.... thanks for your understanding :) RDB —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rettetdiebieber (talk • contribs) 19:41, 9 August 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jacklee, mind giving me a brief conclusion on the usage of Lyo and Merly costume images? And perhaps its relations with the law? You're a lawyer, the expertise is with you here :) ANGCHENRUI Talk♨ 12:41, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jacklee, just wanted your opinion on this matter. There's this media coverage section in the 2010 Youth Summer Olympics article, and IPs repeatedly remove the less-positive content in there. Latest example: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=2010_Summer_Youth_Olympics&diff=prev&oldid=378631783 You think I should call for some form of page protection if this persists? I shall undo those actions for now. Thanks, ANGCHENRUI Talk♨ 13:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

Greetings, Jacklee! I hope your PhD is not causing you permanent head damage! When not working on your thesis, perhaps you could research and write a GA about Singapore in Malaysia for our National Day project? For an experienced and profilic GA writer like you, doing so in three months should not be too difficult if you can get your hands on several good history books (not my secondary school History textbooks, though). Alternatively, you could write a DYK or two, but we would still need someone to work on Singapore in Malaysia, and you are probably the only SGpedian capable of doing so (unless Aldwinteo becomes prolific again). Kindly let me know, by the end of the month, what you plan to work on (I, a JC student, plan to write no less than four articles for our project, and have already started working on the articles). --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 15:53, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
Jacklee, do you plan to write Singapore in Malaysia this year or next year? Either option is fine with me, but I need to know your decision, as it will affect my GA-writing plans for the June holidays (and early Term 3). --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 05:18, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
2010 has arrived. I suggest we scale down the National Day Project to just one FA (already written), one OTD and four DYKs (since GAs do not appear on the Main Page). How about you write the OTD (Singapore in Malaysia) and one DYK, while I write three DYKs? By the way, do you use Facebook? --J.L.W.S. The Special One (talk) 15:28, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
I hope you know that all written material in Singapore is censored and in favours of course the Singapore Government and the PAP ? Why not write the MALAYSIAN point of view ? It seems that this project will be more of a political campaign than an objective study. All the best with your Ph.D. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.219.24.67 (talk) 19:22, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
