Welcome!

Hello, Kxeon, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles.

If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to The Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from East Germany into Flag of East Germany. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 13:31, 29 June 2022 (UTC)

Disruptive edits

Information icon Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Emirate of Fujairah, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Flag of Israel

When you put "answered=yes" in your talk-page edit, you self-sabotged your own request... AnonMoos (talk) 00:06, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

I am such an idiot for doing that😂 Kxeon (talk) 00:15, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

Your use of "Pridnestrovie"

Hello. That Transnistria should not be referred to as Pridnestrovie is something that has been discussed to death. Please refrain from continuing doing so. I am eager to opening a report about this. Your contributions are otherwise helpful, so that's the only problem. Super Ψ Dro 10:10, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Actually, I see most of your additions are unsourced. That only makes unnecessary work for me and other editors to remove them. Super Ψ Dro 10:20, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Some resources

Hi Kxeon. At start I might have been a bit aggressive with my reverts on you, and I apologize for that, but after looking into your contributions these past days, I think you can be a valuable contribution to Wikipedia. I see you have enthusiasm and you have already corrected some beginner mistakes such as editing without backing from sources. I can tell you that this is rare among new users. So I would like to help you a bit.

You say in your userpage that you usually just translate articles. But you don't need to limit yourself to translating what others have written. You can search for sources yourself and write your own content. Maybe this was being a problem for you, as it was for me when I first started. So I would like to give you some tips for finding sources.

  • Use Google Scholar. You can find academic sources here about complex scholarly subjects.
  • Use Google Books. Here are the most niche things in my opinion. If a book doesn't talk about it, then the subject you're looking for probably isn't relevant enough for Wikipedia.
  • Make regular Google searches and click on the news section. Here are more simple, every-day topics. You will probably find what you need here in most cases.
  • Make searches in other languages. This helps you find more sources. Maybe most of them are in a different language other than English.

Your last created pages were the flag, coat of arms and anthem of Tiraspol. I think that if you had wanted to make those pages longer or create similar articles in the future, using Google News and searching in languages like Russian would have helped you. Keep in mind that depending on what you're creating, you will need a type of sources or another. I hope this can help you and sorry if it may appear as coming out of nowhere. Have a good editing here. Super Ψ Dro 23:32, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the help! I honestly didn't know what else to do other than translating articles and, if it's perfectly fine as is, put on some extra touches until you actually told me just now. Thank you for that! :) Kxeon (talk) 14:01, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Coat of arms of Australia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Coat of arms of Victoria. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ  Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:03, 13 September 2022 (UTC)

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Western Armenia Government in Exile, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Armenian.

Edit summary

Hi. I saw your edit summary "do NOT revert without a valid reason". Generally speaking, we don't use edit summaries to give orders; they should helpfully describe what you've done and maybe explain it.
It might also be worth remembering that we assume editors have a valid reason for everything they do - see WP:AGF. Besides, reverting is merely the essential counterpart to changing an article and is a normal part of improving articles. The essay Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle describes this so well that editors often recommend or even insist on following that process, referring to it simply as WP:BRD. Hope this helps. NebY (talk) 14:53, 15 September 2022 (UTC)

Ok, got it. Honestly, that was a mistake on doing that. I just wanted to see the reason WHY they reverted my image changes. Are country article formats different between languages? Kxeon (talk) 16:50, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Yes, the various Wikipedias in different languages each have their own communities which, though to some extent they learn and borrow from each other, have often established different policies, conventions, formats and more. NebY (talk) 17:16, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
So like... the Polish wikipedia can use the normative version of their flag, but not the English one? Can that situation happen as well? Kxeon (talk) 17:20, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
I don't know the Polish Wikipedia's policies at all, but that could indeed be the situation. NebY (talk) 18:24, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
