Move to draft

edit

Hello SRLanguages, I am a Wikipedia new page reviewer, and have noticed you are working on The Chuj Language as a course assignment. As you must be aware, the article is incomplete, and not ready for inclusion in the encyclopedia. I am proposing that you move your page to the Draft: namespace, or your sandbox, as explained in the Editing Guidelines linked from your course page. If you are unable to move the page, you can ask for help at the teahouse. Good luck, Mduvekot (talk) 01:18, 11 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Comments for Chuj

edit

Hi SRLanguages!

On the page itself I have made a few grammar/ spelling corrections. Otherwise, it looks like your page is off to a great start! I would say, please link some of the terms of the languages and places to previous Wikipedia articles. There is another page as well, Chuj languagethat might be of some interest to you as well. The sentence in your lead section " In the 1800s, the effects of the civil war in Guatemala forced many Guatemalan Chuj to flee to Mexico and live as refugees in the 1980s and 1990s" also confused me a bit (I am not exactly sure what you meant by this sentence). I enjoyed reading your article on the Chuj language. I might have missed this in your article, but could you also please cite where you got the numbers from?RUOkay44 (talk) 22:13, 5 April 2017 (UTC)RUOkay44Reply

The Chuj Language

This is a duplicate of an existing article Chuj language. I have redirected it to this article. You are welcome to update the existing article. --Bamyers99 (talk) 19:51, 1 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Copyvio and plagiarism

edit

Hi, I'm the content expert for your course and I received a notification for the page you created, The Chuj language. Although the page has since been turned into a redirect, the report I received showed that you had reposted content from this paper. Although this may not have been your intent, this is seen as a copyright violation (unless the author released the content under a compatible creative commons license) and plagiarism, as it comes across like the content you added was your own work.

I would like you to review the Plagiarism and Copyright training module before proceeding further. Thanks. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 05:22, 2 May 2017 (UTC)Reply
