Pura
[edit]Thank you for creating the Pura (Balinese temple) article! I have gone through and made some English language tweaks. It's great to see so much information in a brand new article. It also makes me want to go back to Bali :-) Cheers, — Hex (❝?!❞) 22:13, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Balinese Hinduism
[edit]Hello Gunkarta. I saw your contributions to the Hinduism in Indonesia page. I am currently working on a research paper for Graduate school that will be looking into Balinese Hinduism. Do you know of any good resrouces (books, online, whatever)? The only problem is that I can only read English! I would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks! Jameslunderwood (talk) 16:26, 19 July 2010 (UTC)jameslunderwood
- Only english..? well that's a problem. Most of Balinese religious scripts or Hindu Balinese education textbooks is provided by "Dinas Pendidikan Provinsi Bali" (the Education Council of Bali province government), unfortunately it usually only available in Bali and most them are written in Indonesian or even Balinese language. Most of Bali travel and tourism books often provides a glimpse of Balinese Hindu ceremonies, traditions and festivals; yet it lacks of depth of the subjects and lack of authority to explain religious concept. One of the most comprehensive and authorized Balinese Hinduism online source is the authoritative Parisada Hindu Dharma Indonesia and to lesser extent Babad Bali.com. Parisada Hindu Dharma Indonesia is the most authoritative Hindu Balinese Council in today Indonesia, however (unfortunately) the site also written in Indonesian language. Hope that help. (Gunkarta (talk) 12:22, 20 July 2010 (UTC)).
- Gunkarta, thanks for the information. I will look into some of the travel literature at least. And I will try Google Translate on thaose Bali and Indonesian sites. I greatly appreciate your help. Much thanks. Jameslunderwood (talk) 17:22, 20 July 2010 (UTC)jameslunderwood

Sunda Kingdom
[edit]If there isnt an article that has the details - there should be text in the main part of the new category (ie something like the Sundanese Kingdom existed between xxxx and xxxx ) - as there have been some marvellous inventions about Sundanese history and culture over time on WP en - you might help by putting dates - and an aka - Sundanese Kingdom - reads better in english.. cheers SatuSuro 13:54, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
- Well.., I reluctant to call them as "inventions", probably more as new "interpretations". It has to be supported by references (inscriptions, manuscripts, or interpretation by historians such as Pleyte, Soekmono or Ayatrohaedi) to be reliable and presentable. The problem with the word "Sunda" is there is actually a kingdom named "Prahajyan Sunda" (Kingdom of Sunda) (as mentioned in Sanghyang Tapak inscription, and Sunda later become the name of Sundanese ethnics group. In Javanese counterpart, never actually a kingdom named "Java Kingdom", Java always associated with Java island or Javanese people. Javanese Kingdom could be Medang, Kediri (historical kingdom), Singhasari, Majapahit, or even Mataram Sultanate. If you refer to "Sundanese Kingdom" (kingdom of Sundanese people), it may also cover Tarumanagara and Galuh as well, to some extent also may include Banten and Cirebon sultanate. While Sunda actually originated as "Sundapura" the name of the palace or capital in Tarumanagara era, later after the decline of Tarumanagara, it become the name of the kingdom on west bank of Citarum river while the east bank of Citarum river is identify as Galuh (read Tarumanagara and Sunda Kingdom for detail). Later both twin kingdoms (Sunda and Galuh) is unified and identified as single entity Sunda kingdom. I would like to identify Sunda kingdom as post Tarumanagara kingdom in Western Java, and pre-Banten and Cirebon Sultanate. I would like to separate and differ the term "Sunda kingdom" and "Sundanese kingdom" (Gunkarta (talk) 16:53, 2 August 2010 (UTC)).

I just want to congratulate you for all of your hard work related to Indonesian archaeology and folklore. You are exactly the sort of specialist that wikipedia needs everywhere on different subjects. It greatly helps eliminate systematic bias by improving coverage archaeology and museums in Indonesia.

Javanese Mythology
[edit]I've created some new stubs on Javanese mythology which I hope you can expand. These are: Babi ngepet, Batara Sambu, Calon Arang, Sundel Bolong, Wewe Gombel. Dr. Blofeld - 15:36, 18 July 2010 (UTC) 14:31, 2 August 2010 (UTC)

The (credible) references books of such subjects is quite rare here, most are those superstitious loaded materials (Gunkarta (talk) 16:22, 2 August 2010 (UTC)).
I see! Thanks. Actually I examined your edits and I spotted you editing articles related to Javanese mythology, so I thought I'd transwiki a few to help you out. The evil spirit articles were created purely by chance, maybe some people were afraid to create them! Asian horror is often a terrifying subject. I'v seen some of the Thai horror films for instance.

The answer to you both is that there are reliable english sources for the ethnographic descirption of these beliefs (and 'beasties') from the dutch era, and from early indonesia area - by such writers as koentjaraningrat 'Javanese culture' and a range of other written (as opposed to web based material) source - and having done fieldwork in central java - I also have a very large bibliograpghy (somewhere) of the all the javanese language materials from about 30 to 40 years ago on these items - but I aint gonna be able to uncover them in the short term - probably the most useful item if you are able to access high quality libraries with good materials - would be NANCY K. FLORIDA, Javanese literature in Surakarta manuscripts; Volume 2; Manuscripts of the Mangku- nagaran palace - as the Mn library has a brilliant selection of the tales - but it is a tortuous trail to find the good indexes/lists of the articles, and even more difficult to find the relevant articles - but they do exist - I have about 150 somewhere - but not accessible for a long time - sorry SatuSuro 10:57, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
Motto
[edit]Dear Gunkarta,
You have just deleted a change I had introduced regarding the language status of the Indonesian motto. I am not an Indonesian native speaker, not even very good at it and, as far as Javanese is concerned I can only say "ngomong jowo", what happens to be entirely to be wrong. Looking at the WP article on Indonesia, I was surprised to see the motto presented as Javanese: it is well known that Javanese and Dutch were rejected as a possible national language in the 1920's and as Indonesia does not consider itself a colonial empire ruled by Java Island... Actually I am a native French speaker. So I checked in my Indonesian-French dictionnary (Labrousse) and did not find there any hint of a possible Javanese origin of "Bhinneka tunggal ika": - the three words together are displayed as a single entry, explained as the Indonesian national motto and translated; - bhinneka and ika are presented each separately, translated and said to be borrowed from Sanskrit; - tunggal is translated without any etymological details (what means that it is not borrowed from Sanskrit, Sundanese, Javanese, Arabic, Dutch... and is a pure Malayo-Polynesian words. Therefore it is difficult for me to consider that my change was entirely wrong. As you seem to be proficient in Javanese culture, it is difficult for me to fancy that I can be right against you. The only solution may be that the tunnggal in Indonesian translates as tunggal in Javanese. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.90.17.7 (talk) 10:05, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
- First of all Old Javanese (Kawi language) is quite different than modern Javanese language, yet bears soo much similarity and resemblences. Yes, Kawi borrowed much of its vocabulary from Sanskirt, but the remnat of Austronesian language vocabularies still can be found. Yet to state Bhinneka Tunggal Ika as purely sanskirt origin is truly false. Read the article Bhinneka Tunggal Ika for details. Bhinneka: Varied, Tunggal: One, Ika: That. (Gunkarta (talk) 10:37, 25 August 2010 (UTC)).
Thank you for your answering quickly. However your answer does not absolutely match myassumptions, for I never pretended the motto being borrowed from Sanskit, but being Indonesian and using three Indonesian words out of which bhinneka and ika are borrowed from Sanskrit and tunggal is Austronesian. My question was: is the word "tunggal" the same in Kawi and in Indonesian?
If I combine the piece of information from my dictionnary and the quotation of the old poem in the article Bhinneka tunggal ika, the answer seems to be yes. But is it politically wise to emphasize the Javanese origin of the motto?

Sumatran ethnic groups
[edit]In this image: [1] I believe you have the Toba and Angkola the wrong way round. Is Padang marked a different colour for some reason? Minangkabau there, right? Sumbuddi (talk) 18:01, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, there are definitely sub-divisions of Indonesian ethnic groups, but there is no 'suku Padang', for sure. Maybe it's just supposed to be the city of Padang, but I don't see why they don't mark other major cities too.Sumbuddi (talk) 19:55, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- The 'Batak' label is better now, but it doesn't enter Simalungun or Mandailing. Maybe you could make it 'Batak Peoples', or perhaps mark the border of 'tanah Batak' with a black line. Also I think approximately the northwest corner of the area marked 'Rejang' should be Kerinci, extending into part of the area marked 'Jambi' (this should be mostly Malay - no 'suku Jambi'). Not sure about any 'Palembang' or 'Riau' people either.Sumbuddi (talk) 23:57, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

You made this addition to Sumatra http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Sumatra&diff=298607335&oldid=298322977 - could I ask if you have a source for this? I must confess to having doubts, as Haji is a Moslem title given to a successful pilgrim to Mecca - not a king, but the article states that the monarchy didn't convert till the 13th C. The name of Haji Sumatrabhuji is tagged as needing citation - one by me just now before I looked back through the history, and the other possibly by XoXo. I can only find this name in copy&pastes and mirrors of the article. Probably you know something we don't. Cheers. Peridon (talk) 20:12, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Obviously you do know something we didn't... Thanks for that. My involvement with this stems from a question elsewhere - where someone quoted the article to try to show that Sumatra was named after King thingy. I reckoned it was the other way. (Turns out the people reckon the answer to the question is Victoria Island anyway.) Thanks for the clarification and the ref. Peridon (talk) 20:07, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Indonesia football help
[edit]Hi. I remembered you were contributing to the 2010 AFF Suzuki Cup article so I thought you could help with an Indonesian football related issue. Jason de Jong was on trials with Sriwijaya, and Filipino news sources claimed he already signed with them and I also put in the article that he signed for them. But apparently he wasn't able to get a contract and I would like to re-edit the article but I'm having a bit of a tough time due to the language of the sources, even with translations. All from the Sriwijaya Post: [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. If you reply, just reply here. Thanks! Banana Fingers (talk) 14:30, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
- Mainly the articles number 1, 2, and 3 of Sriwijaya post tell the optimism that Sriwijaya FC will sign Jason. However in article no. 4 after the tryout the coach Kolev personally express his dislike to de Jong, I don't know what is it precisely about, only the coach express his dissapointment and Sriwijaya FC need a better quality foreign players (probabaly the quality is similar to Indonesian local players, so it is too expensive/not worth it to sign these players). The last articles mentioned that Kolev send home all four tryout foreign players: de Jong and other three Korean players. So I think Jason failed to have Sriwijaya FC contract. (Gunkarta (talk) 15:38, 21 February 2011 (UTC))
- Thanks! Just another question, for the first article, what does it say about the player, a Chinese player Mu Yong Jie. Because the other articles talk about three other players but they're all Koreans. Banana Fingers (talk) 15:58, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
- The first article stated that if Sriwijaya FC sign Jason de Jong and he agree with the contract, it is possible that he will replace Mu Yong Jie (Mu Yong Jie currently signed for Sriwijaya FC, if another foreign player were signed, Mu's contract will not be extended). Since all foreign tryout players are rejected by Kolev, I think Mu keep his position for a while. (Gunkarta (talk) 16:07, 21 February 2011 (UTC)).
- I see. Thanks a lot for the clarification. Banana Fingers (talk) 16:13, 21 February 2011 (UTC)

Monas Independence Room
[edit]Mas Gunawan, saya lihat Mas pergi ke Museum Sejarah Nasional di Monas bulan Oktober yang lalu. Waktu ambil foto Independence Room ada sempat ambil foto Bendera Pusaka ngga? Menurut Crisco 1492, bendera itu udah dipindah ke Monas, tapi saya ngga tahu sejak kapan. Mungkin Mas pernah lihat pada bulan Oktober? —Arsonal (talk + contribs)— 18:04, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
- Terima kasih banyak, Mas. Saya pikir karena belum ada berita, Bendera Pusaka juga mungkin sampai sekarang belum dipindah, ya. —Arsonal (talk + contribs)— 09:10, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
Borobudur image license
[edit]Hi! I'd love to show an image of yours, Lens Flare at Borobudur Stairs Kala Arches, in an upcoming conference talk about a lens flare rendering technique (to a computer graphics audience). However, this talk will also contain other copyrighted material, so I would hereby like to ask you to release me from the "share-alike" paragraph for this particular use of the image. I will gladly give full attribution, of course. Kind regards, Mbhsb (talk) 03:08, 15 July 2011 (UTC)Matthias
Thanks for the information added man, I appreciate it. Calvin Marquess (talk) 15:02, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
Request
[edit]Hello! Could you write an article about my town - Żagań on Indonesian Wikipedia? Only 2-4 sentences enough. I would be thankful. Saganum (talk) 19:06, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you for your article! Saganum (talk) 12:09, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
Peta Jakarta pada saat kerusuhan Mei 1998
[edit]I was wondering if you would be able to SVG trace a map of Jakarta during the May 1998 riots of Indonesia. Crisco 1492 sent me a digital copy of a Tempo article which has a pretty detailed map. I'm afraid the map currently in use doesn't have as much of the useful information conveyed in the Tempo map. You can send me an e-mail and I'll attach the file for you. Otherwise let me know if another method will work. —Arsonal (talk + contribs)— 00:16, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
Some tips to help you out!
[edit]Hi Gunkarta, I thought I'd drop a few notes on your talk page with some help on writing articles :o)
First of all, it may be best for you to do a bit of reading, starting with the Wikipedia manual of style, which will give you a lot of information about how Wikipedia prefers its articles to be written. It's not as hard to follow as it might look; quite a bit of the information there probably won't be vital for you at first.
Second, I recommend you make a user sandbox - which is just an area you can use to practise in, and to make notes in, and to get things ready in. If you click this red link: user:Gunkarta/Sandbox, that will let you create that page (it gives you an edit window to start work in). Anything, anywhere, on the help and information pages which gives you an example, try it out in your sandbox until you're familiar with it.
For your article, the next thing you want to do is start collecting as much information as you can about it. Google searches (particularly in Books and Scholar) will be your best friend for this! Once you've found the information, the next most important thing is to start writing up each fact in your own words (very important, this), and make a note at the same time of exactly where that information came from. Build in the references as you go along; I'm going to copy in, down below this, a whole heap of help on doing references, which was produced by one of our best teachers (Chzz).
Here's another place that you'll find incredibly useful - citation templates which you can copy and paste into your sandbox, between <ref></ref> tags; you just fill in the blanks from your sources into the template, and you'll end up with nicely formatted inline citations :o) It all helps. Remember to add a references section to your sandbox (make a new line, and put ==References== on it, and type {{reflist}} on the next line, so that you can see how your citations look as you do them. Remember to save your page often! You don't want to lose your work.
Hopefully this will give you a good start and make life easier for you.
One last thing to keep as a motto: "It's better to write one good, well-referenced, nicely-presented article than it is to create fifty unreferenced one-line stubs!" Pesky (talk …stalk!) 12:35, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
How references work
[edit]Simple references
[edit]These require two parts;
- a)
Chzz is 98 years old.<ref> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref> He likes tea. <ref> [http://www.nicecupofteaandasitdown.com Tea website] </ref>
- b) A section called "References" with the special code "{{reflist}}";
== References == {{reflist}}
(an existing article is likely to already have one of these sections)
To see the result of that, please look at user:chzz/demo/simpleref. Edit it, and check the code; perhaps make a test page of your own, such as user:Gunkarta/reftest and try it out.
Named references
[edit]Chzz was born in 1837. <ref name=MyBook> "The book of Chzz", Aardvark Books, 2009. </ref> Chzz lives in Footown.<ref name=MyBook/>
Note that the second usage has a / (and no closing ref tag). This needs a reference section as above; please see user:chzz/demo/namedref to see the result.
Citation templates
[edit]You can put anything you like between <ref> and </ref>, but using citation templates makes for a neat, consistent look;
Chzz has 37 Olympic medals. <ref> {{Citation | last = Smith | first = John | title = Olympic medal winners of the 20th century | publication-date = 2001 | publisher = [[Cambridge University Press]] | page = 125 | isbn = 0-521-37169-4 }} </ref>
Please see user:chzz/demo/citeref to see the result.
For more help and tips on that subject, see user:chzz/help/refs.
Something to make your life easier!
[edit]Hi there Gunkarta! I've just come across one of your articles, and noticed that you might appreciate some help with references.
You might want to consider using this tool - it makes your life a whole heap easier, by filling in complete citation templates for your links. All you do is install the script on Special:MyPage/common.js, or or Special:MyPage/vector.js, then paste the bare url (without [...] brackets) between your <ref></ref> tabs, and you'll find a clickable link called Reflinks in your toolbox section of the page (probably in the left hand column). Then click that tool. It does all the rest of the work (provided that you remember to save the page! It doesn't work for everything (particularly often not for pdf documents), but for pretty much anything ending in "htm" or "html" (and with a title) it will do really, really well. Happy editing!

Republic of West Papua
[edit]Could you please explain why did you reverted the article's contain. Explain, what exact part of the text was not OK or may be written from not a neutral point? Dorelexy (talk) 06:10, 26 October 2011 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification (for Gunkarta)
[edit]Hi, this message is to let you know about disambiguation links you've recently created. A link to a disambiguation page is almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.
- Borobudur (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)
- was linked to Tara
Any suggestions for improving this automated tool are welcome. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 18:40, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
Indonesia
[edit]Hi Gunkarta ! I have noticed you are from Indonesia and you seem to be a sport fan.
Can I ask you if you support Indonesia in all sports, and in particular in Olympic sports? The best thing would be also in sports in which Indonesia is not so good at, but still have athletes at international level
If you do, I would like to talk about an Olympic Games project in which I would really like to have more Indonesian user in. Let me know in your talk page, I will have a look in next days and I will try to answer as soon as possible.
Thanks!

Image mistake?
[edit]Hi Gunkarta, I have nominated your SVG of the emblem of the Surakarta Sunanate at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Emblem of Surakarta Sultanate and an editor has a question about the ribbon (possible mistake in coulours). Could you look there and reply? Thanks.
Selamat malam Gunkarta, saya menominasi SVG saudara yang berisi emblem Kraton Solo di Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Emblem of Surakarta Sultanate dan seorang editor mau bertanya tentang pitanya (mungkin ada kesalahan di warnanya). Bisakah Gunkara membaca komentarnya dan balas di sana? Terima kasih.

[edit]Please see my comment at WP Indonesia talk page - the article is now too big for contemporary events and needs a breakup similar to Krakatoa - I would appreciate some support in a separation into more than one article - thanks SatuSuro 13:06, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
DYK for Srivijaya archaeological park
[edit]![]() | On 17 December 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Srivijaya archaeological park, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the aerial photograph of Palembang taken in 1984 revealed the ancient canal network that is now Srivijaya archaeological park? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Srivijaya archaeological park.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
