Ephraim Gottlieb Krüger edit

Hi thanks for creating this article. When we translate or borrow from other language wikis it’s a requirement to acknowledge the source. The best way to do this is to include it in your edit summary (e.g. “translated from de.wiki”) and there’s also a translation template you can add to the talk page. I’ve added it for you. Happy editing and please leave a message on my talk page if you need any help Mccapra (talk) 06:57, 15 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Incomplete and unattributed translations edit

I should perhaps mention that there is no point submitting badly unfinished translations from other Wikipedias, such as (one among many) Christian Amalvi, as they will just be draftified or even deleted. If you submit completed translations, such as Germaine Veyret-Verner, for which many thanks, you should please attribute them as per WP:TFOLWP for copyright reasons.

Proposed deletion of Trees in L'Estaque edit

Hello, MaybeItsBecauseImALondoner

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Hilst, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Trees in L'Estaque, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Hilst}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!
