Hi! Welcome to Wikipedia and I hope your translation project is going well! I came across a situation this morning that I think you should know about. A wikipedia article, translationdraft, has been nominated for deletion. The stated reason was that it was not written in English. I dug into the history of the article and found that it is being edited by students involved with your project.
As the edits are being done in article space on Wikipedia, it becomes a problem when the students are making changes and other editors see the edits as new articles or as vandalism. I would suggest that the students work on draft translations in their userspace to avoid this problem. I notice on your project's page, this had been the intention all along.
Thank you for your help and consideration and best wishes with your project! Wikipelli Talk 14:05, 12 April 2012 (UTC)
- Follow-up... The article has been moved to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:EnriqueGarcia/Translationdraft

[edit]Hello, Mcptrad, and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are a course instructor leading a class project. We encourage you to read our instructions for teachers and lecturers. It is strongly recommended that you add your class to our list of school and university projects.

Before your students create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not. Unencyclopedic articles are subject to deletion.
We highly recommend that you place {{Educational assignment}}
on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and should be treated accordingly.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay after your assignment is finished! Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 11:18, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:E-trans texts.pdf
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:E-trans texts.pdf requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file that is not an image, sound file or video clip (e.g. a Word document or PDF file) that has no encyclopedic use.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Help request for mapping section titles
[edit]Hi. We (the Research Team at Wikimedia Foundation) are building an algorithm that will align Wikipedia article sections across languages. For improving this algorithm we need the help of multilingual Wikipedia editors to provide true statements to the algorithm. You are contacted because based on your Babel template and/or content translation tool usage you know at least two of the following languages: ar (Arabic), fr (French), ja (Japanese), en (English), es (Spanish), ru (Russian).
(Note: by clicking the links in the following paragraph, you will be taken to Google spreadsheet.) If you'd like to help us with translating a subset of the section titles on or before 2018-05-15, please read and follow the instructions. If you see instructions in another language, please scroll down to find your preferred language. If you have questions about this message, you can contact us via Diego. Thank you! :) --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:58, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
