Welcome

[edit]

Hello Suzusan, and welcome to Wikipedia! We're really glad you've chosen to sign up for an account; it offers numerous benefits in case you weren't already aware of them.

Thankyou for your contributions if you've been editing before you got this message. If you haven't, don't worry: there are numerous ways you can contribute to Wikipedia if you're not sure where to start yet. Either way, we hope you'll like the place and decide to stay. We all remember what it's like to be new, so don't let others scare you off.

[edit]

Here's some useful links that will help you get started.

  •   Tutorial - a collection of pages explaining the most important things for contributing to Wikipedia.
  •   Sandbox - the best place for trying things out. If previous edits you made to articles have been reverted because they were experimental or unconstructive, this is the place to make test edits.
  •   Wikipedia:Manual of Style - our style guide outlines our standards for ensuring that we present information in a consistent manner that promotes cohesion and professionalism.

Contributing

[edit]

With these references at hand, we hope you find it easier to contribute to Wikipedia. Here's a brief synopsis of some ways you can:

  • We obviously wouldn't have an encyclopedia without articles. This page shows how you can help them grow.
  • Removing vandalism and keeping the integrity of articles intact is a great way of contributing. More information on how to do so can be found here.
  • Fixing typos, correcting poor grammar and repairing broken links are just some examples of useful, behind the scenes contributions. Even just making things look nice makes using Wikipedia more pleasant for everybody.
  • If you like working with images, you might be interested in the Graphic Lab. Similarly, this page shows you how to work with images in Wikipedia articles.
  • This page lists the many types of tasks you can do to maintain Wikipedia.
  • There are numerous WikiProjects that aim to provide coordination and collaboration on particular subjects. From this list, you can join a project and contribute within an area that interests you.

Of course, there are many ways of contributing, but I hope that this message is helpful to you, and that you'll enjoy editing Wikipedia and continue to do so. You can respond to this message by clicking here if you have a comment or need help - don't forget to sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~), or you can place {{helpme}} on your talk page and write your query there.

Translation Studies Meetup

[edit]

Good morning, Suzusan. Thanks for inviting me to participate in the Translation Studies Meetup.

I would like to put forward a proposal. There is already the Applied Linguistics Task Force in the area of WikiProjects. But... translation and translation studies are much more than applied linguistics. There is also an existing redirect, Wikipedia:WikiProject Translation redirecting to Wikipedia:WikiProject Intertranswiki - this is not my idea.

I think the time has come up for a dedicated Wikipedia:WikiProject Translation Studies. That is my proposal. What do you think?

Regards, --Fadesga (talk) 14:57, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Suzusan. Yeah, both of us think similarly. This Meetup is the right starting point for proposing a WikiProject. I have no experience starting/running a WikiProject in the English-language Wikipedia, although I do have experience in the Spanish Wikipedia (see the es:Wikiproyecto:Sordera for Deafness and es:Wikiproyecto:Guaraní, both of them were proposed by me; and I also participated in the startup of other historical/cultural WikiProjects). So, if you agree, I would plainly write the proposal for creation of a WikiProject Translation Studies on the very page of the Meetup. That way, people visiting the page would enthusiastically engage in the proposal. Agree? Regards, --Fadesga (talk) 15:33, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Shin Kyung-sook

[edit]

Hi Suzusan, I'm replying here to your messages at User talk:KylieTastic. Procedurally, for any undiscussed moves you disagree with, you (or I or anybody) can revert them without a prior consensus (WP:RM#Undiscussed_moves). The condition is that the original move must not have been "a long time" ago, an unclear and debatable standard, which is not really just about time but also how much attention/editing the page has gotten since then. But long story short, I suggest that you're perfectly within reason, and not move warring, to revert at Shin Kyung-sook or anywhere else you see fit. If you want to look over all of the moves, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Log?type=move&user=Spacestationtrustfund. To Spacestationtrustfund's credit, the type of page moves I complained about earlier haven't happened in the past few months, so it's not like admins will be coming in and blocking anybody unless there is actual disruption currently in need of prevention. I hope this helps! Adumbrativus (talk) 05:12, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Happy New Year!
You are completely correct, I thought it was a more recent move. The type of editing Spacestationtrustfund has been doing is tiresome and usually receives little credit, so kudos to them. I gues I'm just a little frustrated the efforts hadn't gone in a more productive direction. Anyway, I'll start reverting pages little by little following the log. I'll try to keep as many as possible (whenever a writer does not have an international profile). Thank you for your answer and the tip! Suzusan (talk) 13:00, 31 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Happy New Year, Suzusan!
