Machine translations from French
[edit]Hello, Ziq75, and welcome to Wikipedia!
I notice you have recently created pages Richard Bellon and Sophie Ferracci using the ContentTranslation tool. It is not helpful to the project to create machine translations like this and leave them as articles. May I ask what your level of fluency in French is, and whether you plan to go back and fix up these new articles by comparing them to the original French and fixing any translation errors you encounter?

- Hello Mathglot,
- Sorry for this late answer, i was far away.
- To answer your question: i am french and 100% fluent in french, but of course less fluent in english. Perhaps it will be errors of syntax or spelling, when i translate french into english, but no problem of meaning.
- Could you tell me why my other translation from french wiki has been deleted, i think its a mistake
- thanks for your help — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ziq75 (talk • contribs) 08:50, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
- I can't tell you why specifically, but read the Afd at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Richard Bellon and that discusses the reasons why.
- (If you reply, please reply here not on my TP, and {{ping}} me; thanks.) Mathglot (talk) 10:27, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
Using citations
[edit]One of Wikipedia's core principles is verifiability. This means, that claims made in articles should be backed up with references from reliable sources. I noticed you recently added some languages to the table at Languages of Cameroon, but you didn't cite any sources. Please find sources for this information, and add them to the article. You can find more information at WP:REF, and this tutorial might help. Cordially, Mathglot (talk) 00:33, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
- Hi Ziq75, I undid your earlier edit, but don't worry, you can just put it back again. Just make sure to add some citations from reliable sources. Thanks! Cordially, Mathglot (talk) 06:41, 23 July 2017 (UTC)
