Atlantic Resolve ASB tags
I understand you're more lenient then most other admins in terms of plausibility so I assume Atlantic Resolve is an exceptional case. I assume the amount of territory Russia seized in Europe as well as being able to invade North America are the reasons behind this? Russian victory over NATO would also be ASB-biased even by itself? Experiment632 (talk) 05:03, January 1, 2019 (UTC)

Thanks. Yeah last time I tried to make changes to eliminate ASB tags, I ended up being so discouraged I deleted my timeline. Fortunately I obviously got over it and now realize that my AH just wouldn't work out as I imagined if I tried to avoid the tags.

The likely outcome for WW3 will be a Russian victory. However an alternate ending might describe a NATO victory; how do I tag such a page?

Any suggestions on how I can make my timeline more of an enjoyable read without compromising the events as I currently have them?

Off-topic - Wow that's a relief; when I opened your talk page, I saw that my post was the only one and thought I somehow accidentally vandalized your talk page. I calmed down of course once I realized you have your talk page categorized by year and I just happened to be the first one to post in 2019. Experiment632 (talk) 06:11, January 1, 2019 (UTC)

So World War III without nuclear escalation is pretty much destined to be marked as ASB and that in my timeline the U.S. would've launched a nuclear strike at the very outbreak of hostilities? Experiment632 (talk) 17:33, January 2, 2019 (UTC)

My apologies plus alternate communication
Yeah I serious apologize for my spamming. I realized that my questions could be seen essentially as advertising my alternate histories which is very bad wiki etiquette - not to mention spamming - to do so on a talk page with ignorance to that being no excuse. Hince my withdrawal of my questions.

Is there an alternative means of communications instead of the easily accessible talk page such as email? I assume as an admin you have access to my email so I won't need to post it in talk?

Hi Nuclear, could you please undelete this file? R1 is different from R2 as both show the results of different rounds of the same election. I just haven't gotten round to using R1 yet. Thanks. —  THE TIM TAM  IS MY   SPIRIT ANIMAL  (TSW • AH • MGW • Contribs ) 23:14, January 6, 2019 (UTC)

Argentina-Uruguay flag
Hi, just noticed you'd uploaded the Argentina-Uruguay flag I made for a Reddit thing ages ago, absolutely no problem, thanks for the compliment in fact.

Atlantic Resolve - World War III and North Korea

Renaming Images
Hi Nuke, sorry for bombarding your talk page. I was just wondering if I could have permission to rename images such as to a more correct title (such as Donatus, Landgrave of Hesse.jpg). I’ll obviously change the file on affected pages as well. I kinda think it will make finding specific images on the wiki easier. Cheers AlthistWriter (talk) 09:07, January 16, 2019 (UTC)

2016 U.S. Elections (Atlantic Resolve)
In light of America losing World War III, would a total elections be held so all three Senate classes, all House seats, all governorships, and the presidency are affected? Or should only the same offices as OTL elections (minus occupied states/counties) be involved in the elections? Which Third-Parties you see getting more votes then the Democrats?

Post-war Cascadia and Alaska (Atlantic Resolve)
How long would it probably take for the Russo-Northwest Occupational Government to convert into the Cascadian Federation and the Russian Protectorate of Alaska?

You think the RNOG would remain afterwards or more likely officially convert into a CSTO/SCO Multinational Force?

And how long til you see Russia tiring of Lana Lokteff's Alt-Right government to the point they decide new leadership is needed for the new country? Experiment632 (talk) 05:21, January 21, 2019 (UTC)

RA and Dougs Reply
Thanks for your nice and long message, it been a while old friend :). A good reply for me is long overdue.

I think adding the ethnic groups' category to the national template is a cleaner way to get the same general objective - that is making the ethnic group articles more accessible then what I proposed. I also like the flags you added to the ethnic template- they look really nice. The only other thing I might do about making the ancestral group articles more visible is replacing Wikipedia links of ethnic Russian articles to the articles here, but that is not a large issue.

I have wondered about the history of colonial British Columbia, and your findings certainly provide insight. Given Alexander II's policies, your ideas make sense, but the later reversal of these actions will certainly still result in later conflicts in the 1930s. I do like the idea of a soft Russian impact in the region because there would be a reasonable fear that the isolated land may be depopulated or gasp- left to the original natives if the English were not treated with some level of respect.

I think  John McLoughlin should be in the Doug article, and perhaps he could even have his own article to go into the ahistorical situation.

I have some requests, I hope I am not asking too much haha.

I also wanted to ask if Leo Tosley could immigrate to Alaska, and be a symbol of Russian-Alaskan literature at this time, but it's highly speculatory. I continue to think more and more about a possible -Alaskan Culture article that will include all kinds of things like literature, architecture and music

I was also wondering if I could create a Black or African Alaskan article, (assuming they are about 1-3% of the population), with maps showing very long continental migrations.

Then I was thinking about getting around to writing about the 'Mongol Town' I mentioned before that might exist in Sonoma, as a distinct place to be put on the map.

To be honest, this could be dangerous as I keep thinking about more and more things I could do with your permission, I think I really like this timeline because of the parameters of writing about a country that didnt really exist at all in real life. There is just so much to illustrate here. It makes one wonder of what really definies- this place?

I appreciate that you approved of the cusine :). Little details like that, bring all of those paragraphs of historical description to life.

Infoboxes
Could you please not delete templates I create? I want to try a new monarchy infobox template for my articles and I don't want to overwrite the old one as that would cause problems.

Caspian Karazai (talk) 23:19, February 4, 2019 (UTC)

Don't delete my templates
I already asked you not to delete my templates and yet you did? I thought I already gave a clarification? You didn't even bother to reply to my message?!

Caspian Karazai (talk) 00:00, February 5, 2019 (UTC)

Infoboxes
I thought I already made it clear I don't want to use the old infobox as I'm creating a new one that would be more according to my preferences?

We already went over a similar issue once and though you urged me not to, you did acquiesce to my request that I could make infoboxes for my timelines.

Please, I already have plans for various other infoboxes. I don't see why you're being so adamant about this. This infobox will have a different appearance/look then the old one and both can co-exist.

Caspian Karazai (talk) 00:06, February 5, 2019 (UTC)

I noticed you have replaced the old monarchy infobox with the one I wanted to create. Now all infoboxes on every monarchy page created before today on the entire wikia is messed up due to different parameters/data (possibly dozens/hundreds of pages). For example see: Empress of China

Also the infobox that I was busy making was transferred from Wikipedia, but due various wikia-related issues the infobox has various problems. For example: the infobox that is below 'incumbent' is aligned to the right instead of to the center, has a different color and a visible border, which makes the whole thing look bad. This is how the infobox looks like on Wikipedia, but because of various wikia related issues it is does not actually look like this on the wiki.

So what I'm supposed to do instead of creating infoboxes for my own preferences is copy-pasta over the old one? Which would result in dozens/hundreds of pages that use the old template being messed up?

Caspian Karazai (talk) 00:30, February 5, 2019 (UTC)



I have provided you a handy image that lists all the things that need to be fixed. If it can't be done due to wikia limitations, I may already have a solution, but it's not the best one, so I suggest you attempt to fix the template as I don't know enough about scripting to do it myself.

Template:Infobox settlement issues
Greetings, I have come to report several issues that are currently applying to the above mentioned template that would need to be fixed as the template is locked and cannot be edited. Caspian Karazai (talk) 01:41, February 5, 2019 (UTC)
 * The template is likely outdated and may be updated from Wikipedia
 * The is an error in the template that requires fixing (see  )
 * All links (like Population density, elevation,Time Zone) in the template should be removed (as this template was transferred from Wikipedia), as linking to Wikipedia is out-of-universe and immersion breaking when reading the timeline, also Wikipedia contains OTL information that may not apply to timelines
 * Typing only the population density in square km's results in an error. (see the 'Expression error: Unrecognised punctuation character ' Also there is no way to make population density in square km come before the density in square miles.
 * There may be other things I have not noticed

Atlantic Resolve Talk
Following the end of the Third World War, the Russians choose not to dissolve the European Union nor force occupied countries to leave the supranational common market. Instead the All-Russian Federation is using the EU to gradually obtain economic control over the entirety of Europe (minus Switzerland of course). Would the flag, anthem, and capital remain the same or are Russification changes to all three features more likely? Experiment632 (talk) 18:27, February 5, 2019 (UTC)


 * Two "European Unions" is also another potential outcome of Russian control of half of the old European Union? Experiment632 (talk) 03:12, February 11, 2019 (UTC)


 * In the event that Cascadia ultimately joins the All-Russian Federation as an equal republic next to Russia, Belarus, etc., would it still be eligible for the "Cascadia" tag? Experiment632 (talk) 03:12, February 11, 2019 (UTC)

I apologize. I wasn't sure how to handle irrelevant posts made by third party users in the section. Just ignore them in the future and post around them? I also apologize for the numerous posts in Discord. I recommend you disregard everything there and we limit further correspondence to this talk page.

Yes I see your point. Pacific Northwest best as a client state as originally planned. Alaska and Fort Ross probably the absolute limit of territorial gains in North America? What's a good time period for Russia turning against the Cascadian Alt-Right Party and replacing them with a more stable regime not prone to human rights abuse? One year after the war, current live event, or early 2020's? Experiment632 (talk) 06:25, February 11, 2019 (UTC)


 * Why would Russia even want to annex any part of the United States, let alone Fort Ross? By this point, both Alaska and FR have been effectively de-Russified and wouldn't even serve any valuable importance. If anything, it would make the most sense for Russia to keep "Cascadia" as a buffer state and client state.


 * Other than that, I have absolutely no idea what to make of anything related to this timeline. Way out of my comfort zone. -- 00:03, February 12, 2019 (UTC)

Sorry. Yeah I agree; 150 plus years is definitely too long a time for Alaska to be returned officially to Russia. Only exception is the Aleutian Islands and Little Diomede Island as originally planned and only because they are isolated and sparsely populated. Fort Ross annexation was only done for propaganda reasons but I could just downgrade it to a lease agreement with Cascadia instead. Alaska shouldn't even be a separate client state but instead be a part of the Cascadia itself?

Do you have any recommendations for the All-Russian Federation itself that I haven't yet included? Experiment632 (talk) 00:47, February 12, 2019 (UTC)


 * Searched for Eurasian Economic Union flag as I consider using EAEU in my timeline and it appears that someone has gone broken it.

I request that all deleted Atlantic Resolve pages that have not been restored already are done so at your earliest convenience and tagged as "Obsolete (Atlantic Resolve)" Thanks. Experiment632 (talk) 23:50, March 25, 2019 (UTC)
 * The All-Russian Federation currently consists of Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, the Baltic States, and Moldova. The Caucasus (at least Georgia) could be included in the near future. United Russia has an even greater hold in the Russian government then OTL, making the federation a single-party state in everything but name. Would these factors qualify the All-Russian Federation to be added to the "Soviet Union" category? Or is a Communist government and control over all republics a requirement? Experiment632 (talk) 14:13, April 15, 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks anyways. Hmmm looks like one page is mislabeled which had me thinking Russia in some circumstances can be included in Soviet Union. Here's the following link in case your want to relabel it: Russia (Alternity). Also do Russian occupational governments qualify for Russia tag or is there a special tag for occupations? Experiment632 (talk) 02:06, April 16, 2019 (UTC)

Would China, India, and Pakistan even be able to salvage the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation after the departure of Russia and all former Soviets (minus the unrecognized Kazakh communist regime) following the onset of the Sino-Russian Cold War OR would it be better for them to sign a new treaty to replace SCO altogether?

OTL events in Alt-History articles

Template:Infobox monarchy issues
I noticed that you made a lot of edits to Template:Infobox monarchy earlier this month, and those edits appear to have created some issues, as can be demonstrated. I believe it's mainly because of the use of #invoke parser functions that don't work on Wikia, since it uses a highly outdated form of MediaWiki that the Wikimedia projects have long since moved on from; Wikimedia also now uses Lua modules, which is what #invoke functions are for.

However, I can't tell for sure, since I haven't been able to take the time to analyse every edit that you made to the template; I thought I'd bring this to your attention anyway, in case you aren't already aware about this.

Monarchy infobox
Hello. The monarchy infobox seems to still not have been fixed. You should just copy the last version (actually I don't know which version, but one version of the template worked perfectly) of Template:TESTINGSTUFF (before it was deleted) to the monarchy infobox page as that template worked perfectly without any errors. I can't do it myself since I can't access deleted pages. Thanks!

Featured CTG
Hi, a few months ago, I nominated Cromwell the Great as a featured timeline, (as seen here) and the absolute majority of users voted in favour of it being a featured timeline. The policy is that after two weeks (and a majority vote), it will be made a Featured Timeline. As I say, it’s been a few months and no activity has taken place. I was wondering if you could do something about it?

If you could givee me a link to a page like that (suggesting there is one) or could happen to supply me a file if I asked you to for a flag I need in order to stop a mess such as this.

Templates
You deleted the content of the template legend0. Please restore the template, wikipedia has different templates for different legends, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Legend0 The template legend0 is useful for maps in infoboxes, while the regular template legend is better to use with maps: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Legend (the map about the Celts uses the bigger legend template, while for example the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_French_Empire uses the smaller legend0 which fits perfectly with the map in the infobox as there is no need for such big boxes in an infobox with limited space.)

Until you restore the template I have replaced the content of Template:Legend with that of Template:Legend0.

Question
Hello

There is currently an issue with the Template:Efn (which displayes [lower-alpha 1]], [lower-alpha 2]] instead of a, b (check this page if you need verification). To solve this I think this requires a simple edit of the [//althistory.fandom.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Cite_link_label_group-lower-alpha https://althistory.fandom.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Cite_link_label_group-lower-alpha] page to have the contents of this wikipedia page  so that it can accurately display a, b, c, d in the notes section. Currently notes don't work on this site due to this. Copying the contents of the wikipedia page to the page on althistory wiki should solve this.

Thanks!

Chile (RA)
Hi Nuc! How have you been? I noticed you add new content to Chile (Russian America), and I was thinking revised the list of presidents, and analyze the possibility of a short civil war or military uprising (similar to OTL, not the same) during some point of first half of XX century, as well if Allende would be elected as president or not (and if he can complete his mandate), but maybe here need some advice about the Cold War in RA timeline. I read that Nelson Rockefeller was the US president in 70's instead of Nixon. Regards! --Katholico (talk) 06:36, March 27, 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi! I'm fine, thanks :) jeje, and I'm glad to help xD
 * I think that I understand the Cold War situation now, thanks! I have no idea about that Goldsboro B-52 incident D:
 * About Allende, if he follow a moderate way, a truly moderate way, I can see his own party divided in two, maybe, even Allende being expelled because the majority of Socialist Party in OTL had a radical position, or just these far left-wing elements left the government coalition. In any case, with a divided Left, a moderate Allende could reach some keys accords with the centrist oposition and after the war with Tahuantinsuyo, despite the victory, a candidate from other party will became the new president.
 * About Kirchner and Patagonia, yes, you have a good point. In OTL Chile, have been very important in the last decades, with parties and regionalist movements rising in the extreme regions of the country, in the north and the south, and people from this tendencies being elected mayors or senators, defeating both Left and Right candidates. The economic factor indeed is a reason for this, for example, the mining regions in the North. People wants that the benefits from the mining production help to the improve the region, and that no all it go to Santiago.
 * About changes in the regions, oh, ok. By the way, were exactly is located the north limit of Chile?
 * About Alfonsín, oh, I think he will be a interesting addition to the list of presidents, but I need to see in which party (Radical or Liberal are my first options). About Cristina Fernández, maybe she can be candidate, but not elected xD
 * Oh, one last thing. You have planned how exactly the Peru-Bolivian Conferation won the war? I know the british and french helped the Confederation, but how? They sending troops or just a fleet? I already have some ideas about how the war may have been (in fact I made the list of presidents with this in mind), but I want to be sure that I don't contradict you.
 * Thanks for all :) Regards! --Katholico (talk) 20:48, March 29, 2019 (UTC)


 * I like the idea that Chile have close relations con Alaska.
 * In OTL, the only industry nationalized with transversal support was the mining.
 * Yes, surely the armed leftlist groups will cause chaos and that can be one the motives for the invasion.
 * I think that the regionalist will still exist, but just as a fourth or five political force. In fact, despite Kircher won the presidency in 2000, he will not count with majority in Congress (maybe just 1/3 at best). Yet, that will be the best moment for the movement and they will achieved many things and the next governments (right, left or center) will have to follow this changes.
 * About the War of the Confederation, I think this going in line with what I though. The war maybe can just include only the OTL first campaign, but with some changes. Chile sent the Blanco Encalada's expedition, but soon the confederate-british will be attack and blockade the principal chilean ports like Valparaíso or Concepción and the same time give support to liberal troops who rebel and capture to General Manuel Bulnes. In Perú, Blanco Encalada is surrounded like OTL but here is defeated. By january 1838, Santa Cruz offer peace in same terms of the OTL Treaty of Paucarpata, but including establish territorial limits and more monetary compensation for Chile (to be sure Chile will accept and end this war before more bloods will be flow). What you think?
 * jeje XD I will consider Alicia for future, but first I need revised the rest of the list. Regards! --Katholico (talk) 20:20, March 30, 2019 (UTC)


 * Yep, sounds good :) Thanks!
 * By the way, I updated the list of presidents of Chile. I had to do some changes in the XIX Century. I need still continue with the XX Century presidents. Regards! --Katholico (talk) 19:04, April 4, 2019 (UTC)

The problem is, the search system for images doesn't work very well, and therefore I couldn't find the image by looking; and as I don't know how to upload images otherwise, I ended up copying the version that was already there (posted by yourself, I believe) and dragging it back in. I apologise, my experience with the wikia photo system is very limited. If possible, could you give me a few tips on how to use this thing so that I would avoid violating the rules in future?

Cordially,

Never mind, being the idiot that Iam I somehow missed the guidelines. I have read them and know what to do now, so please disregard previous requests for help. My sincirest apologies, and rest assured this will not happen again. I have no intention of breaking rules, and indend to correct my behaviour.

Cordially,

Luke Nielsen (talk) 02:46, April 25, 2019 (UTC)Luke Nielsen.

Just to let you know, I have added a flag, but I am 100% positive that no duplicate exists. If I somehow managed to miss such a glarinigly obvious thing as that, well, I deserve whatever happens to me. But I swear that, to the best of my knowledge, I have kept the rules. Thank you for your time.

1983: Doomsday revival
Is there any chance of 1983: Doomsday coming back? 2020ckeevert (talk) 21:22, May 6, 2019 (UTC)

Doomsday is technically still alive but it updated so infrequently that it is basically dead. There i the similarty 1989 war  which like doomsday is collerate. However since the timeline founder Duke Devon moved on to other thing, I been the only person posting on it .He still gives me feedback ocasionally.

Mea Culpa, Mea Culpa, Mea Maxima Culpa
So, I see that you've deleted a photo I've added, and I wonder if I somehow missed the fact that something was already on the wiki again. I don't really have an excuse (except that the system is a little hard to get used to), so I will not ask for any special favours. I'm just here to apologise.

Cordially,

Luke Nielsen (talk) 03:16, May 8, 2019 (UTC) Luke Nielsen

(P.S.: I've also just noticed that you've deleted the map of Europe for my timeline, I'm guessing because I uploaded it and failed to include it in an article. I apologise for that as well. And, I apologise for my sycophantic apologies.)

Thank you extremely! Sorry to keep pestering you, I guss I'm rather nervous around authority figures. Anyway, I'll try my best in future to remember how the system works.

Hey NuclearVaccuum,

Just a quick question: Can I reupload the pictures from my page "Cabinet of Marco Rubio," that have broken links?

Hi Nuclear.

I have troubleusing images for any article i try to create, as i am fearful of uploading duplicate files, yet, at the same time i cannot seem to use the gallery files as i try to search them up from the gallery button while creating an article, it all seems blank, or the wrong images show up. Any help is appreciated, thank you

Terra Ultra
Hello Nuclear Vacuum; After some discussion with Scraw on Discord, it was decided that the Terra Ultra Map Game could stay on the Alternate History Wikia under the context that Mars' landforms were switched with Earth's landforms, rather than life on Mars itself. However, Scraw did not remove the deletion template, and you deleted it after three days. On discord, Scraw said he would allow the game to run. I would like to ask that you revert the deletion of the Terra Ultra Map Game page. Thank you, Ahoys123   02:06, May 15, 2019 (UTC).

Report on Sockpuppeting
Apparently user Turkish Turkey is a sockpuppet of blocked user Palestine-Palestine. The way he edited the infobox on The Republic of Arabia is suspiciously similar with The Kingdom Of Palestine and similar mistake on naming the article has been repeated.

Speaking in Bahasa
I know we use English as our working language and common tongue here. But, that new user (Aditisnotangga) does not understand every time we explain him about basic manners and rules on this wiki because of his limitation on speaking English.

Since you are the most senior admin right now (and the one who will get more headache if this miscommunication continues), may I ask a permission to speak and explain to him in Indonesian about the basic rules of our community?

I tried in vain to explain him in English. So, I guess we need a different approach regarding him before he naively making any trouble here, violating here and there.

Two Brazil flags?!
Hi NV

In the 1983:DD version of Brazil, two flags seems to be used at the same time: this one (in the official page) and this one (in the South americans nations template and in the LoN page/Nation flags page). I've noticed it when i just tought, looking at the League of Nations article (seeing a version of the 23px flag that was deleted by you for some reason), that there must have been some kind of linking error or that the flag as been reuploaded with a new updated design and wanted to fix it like if it was english error. What should we do?

SigmaHero045 (talk) 01:38, June 4, 2019 (UTC)

Re:Kalimantan Questions
I will be glad to help you regarding that questions.

Indonesian nationalist movement did have reached Kalimantan (and Sumatra) back then. There was a popular misconception that Indonesian nationalism was prosperous simply because the Japanese occupation. Without Sukarno, the nationalist movement was led by the Greater Indonesian Party (Partai Indonesia Raya, "Parindra") which cooperated with the Dutch and at the same time had been inspired by the Japanese in 1930s. Reference can be found here (in Bahasa Indonesia).

The Parindra did exist in South Kalimantan (several members were also existed in West Kalimantan), especially among the Banjarese in the regions of Banjarmasin and Hulu Sungai. They were proto-fascist in nature, imitated fascist salutes and uniforms, and supported the very idea of "Greater Indonesia". Unlike Sukarno's PNI which was left-wing in economic views, the Parindra had more right-wing outlook.

Regardless of their cooperative nature with the colonial government, the Parindra in Kalimantan did making troubles with the anti-colonial agitations of its radical younger members. Banjarese people were in support of this movement mostly because their long-time hatred with the Dutch since the Banjarmasin War.

During the Indonesian National Revolution, South Kalimantan was a hot-bed of the revolution in Kalimantan. Many rural and younger Banjarese fought for the revolution, although some others, mostly older generations, stood loyally for the Dutch. It is just a personal trivia, but my paternal grandfather was among the first group and was a revolutionary veteran, while the maternal side of the family was among the second one because they were more urbanized and more educated Banjarese. Unlike the Dayaks which mostly pro-Dutch, the Banjarese were pro-Republic mostly of historical and religious reasons, especially the ones from rural areas.

The rest of Kalimantan, on other hand, would be ruled by local pro-Dutch monarchies like West and East Kalimantan. The Dayaks in Central Kalimantan were also known as outspoken supporters of the Dutch and viewed them as protectors and patrons in education and modernization. Like in Sumatra, this local monarchies and the Dayaks could be more suspicious to the nationalist movement compared with the Banjarese in South Kalimantan. Some of this local prominents had attended the 1946 Malino Conference sponsored by the Dutch (click here for more pictures).

In conclusion, for the most of the parts of the island, the Dutch rule will be more likely to remain because of the existed local states wanted the Dutch to protect and patronize them, just like how the Malay monarchies sought the British protections in Malaya, as well as the pro-Dutch sentiment of the Dayaks. Without any revolution, the Banjarese in South Kalimantan will be less dominant in stirring the nationalist movement in the island.

The Dutch can offer the Banjarese either with the restoration of Banjar Sultanate or by giving them more prominent positions in the colonial bureaucracy throughout the island in order to appease their anti-Dutch feelings.

So, that's all what I can answer. I hope you are satisfied with it. Sorry for a late reply because today is the last day of Ramadhan here.

Good evening and have a nice day to you too :)

FirstStooge (talk) 12:47, June 4, 2019 (UTC)


 * That could be a very interesting idea. Malaysian model does fit the best with the situations in Kalimantan at that time. It could balances the Banjarese cultural and economic dominances with other ethnicities in the west and the east, especially the Malays in the western regions and the Dayaks. I'm sorry I could not provided you with more materials regarding the politics of Kalimantan between the 1920s and the 1950s since the resources and the references are scarce even in Bahasa.


 * Thank you so much for your kind words. May Heaven bless you and have a nice day :)

Re:Third duplicate
Hello. I'm uploading flags of provinces of Imperial Brazil and, in order to prevent duplicates, the system automatically warned me that some of them were already here, but for some reason it didn't detect that one (perhaps it is too simple in shape?).

I'm going to upload some more of these flags, as well as some pictures of politicians. I'll try my best avoid duplicates, but if I happen to slip up, please don't block me straight away. - Esbonl (talk) 05:57, July 12, 2019 (UTC)
