Translating

Dear Sirs, I would like to know how to get started translating an article from English to Danish? The specific article that I want to translate is the article ‘Milk’Poulsen1234 (talk) 10:11, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Since you want to translate from English to Danish, you can help by expanding the article at Danish Wikipedia. Mælk is the corresponding article at da wikipedia. WP:TRANSLATE contains more information on translating --Ushau97 (talk) 11:03, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

Controversy

Alan Cinis (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)Appears to be unrelated
In November 2010 Alan Cinis was arrested after the Police found cannabis and 6 small plants at his Leichhardt home. Cinis pleaded guilty to possession and cultivation and was convicted of having 40 grams of cannabis. Cinis was put on an 18 month good behaviour bond with supervision by Correctional Services. Amcinis (talk) 00:47, 2 May 2013 (UTC) <ref>Balmain Court documents. <ref> this happened to me and the media printed false stories about me working with underprivileged children inferring that I was supplying said children with drugs. My reputation has been destroyed and I can no longer get work. The Police, delayed and then, withheld a Lab Report dated the 2nd March 2011, until after the State Election was held at the end of March 2011. Having the ALLEDGED information only helps to damage my career and distract from the actual event and court decision. A very stern sentence for a first time cannabis offence. The Police kept me in Court for 7 months longer than was necessary and I am at a loss to explain why they did this.

I'm not sure what you are on about. What you are on about, however, appears not to relate to Wikipedia. Also, please note pwe cannot offer Legal Advice. Mdann52 (talk) 12:44, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

I believe that this question related to this material removed from Alan Cinis by an editor who says that he's a newbee but who says "rollbacks have occurred since last I did this". - David Biddulph (talk) 13:47, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry that you feel you have been treated unjustly. But irrespective of the rights and wrongs, material (particularly about living people) may only be inserted into Wikipedia if it has already been reported in a reliable source. --ColinFine (talk) 22:41, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
