Welcome

Hello! I am assuming you have come over from the English Wikipedia, so you are probably familiar with the way this wiki works. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. Here are a few links to help you adjust:

• An English Wikipedian's guide
• Writing in Simple English
• Simple talk: our help desk, reference desk and village pump- in one page
• How to copy from English Wikipedia

If you need help just click here and type {{helpme}} and your question and someone will reply to you shortly. You can also check out the help section of Wikipedia, or leave a message on my talk page.

There is a lot you can do here. For example, there are a lot of articles that have not been created yet, which you can bring over from the English Wikipedia and simplify. Just remember you can not directly copy them. They must be simplified. Do have a look around and see what you would like to do. Thank you for joining us. Happy changing!

@Q114417523: Thankyou for the welcome. I am indefinitely blocked on the English Wikipedia. They say competence is required. And I am good at not simple. No one understands me. So simple is not simple. I confuse the management. I do too much information. Thanks for the suggestion to change. I confirm my underpants were a bit wiffy. I have changed them. Thankyou for the welcome. -- 11:49, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

{{helpme}}

. As suggested I have changed them. Please. Fix {{Cite Q}}} at Template talk:Cite Q#Different results for links from title into Wikisource on Simple.. Thanks. (Well someone did say use the old {{helpme}}!). -- Thanks. -- 11:49, 5 October 2022 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djm-leighpark (talk • contribs) 1:50, 5 October 2022 (UTC)

Helpme canceled. Will respond on other page as I have more information. Thankyou. (internet or site barf just lost a fuller replay). -- 22:51, 7 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Djm-leighpark. It looks like "Charlotte Stoker" was derived from the English Wikipedia or another version of Wikipedia. If that is indeed the case, please make sure you add some form of attribution, either in your change summary or on the article's talk page. This must be done, even for derivative works, or the article will be deleted in time. More instructions on how to do this are at Wikipedia:Transwiki attribution. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 08:00, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

@MathXplore. Thanks but you're a little behind the curve. No attribution is actually required because the author of the ga:Charlotte Stoker, namely User:Deirge Ó Dhaoinebeaga, is an alternate account of mine that is primary on Gaelic language articles and Commons particularly related to County Sligo. On Wikidata both Deirge is primary and Djm-leighpark secondary in relation to spreadsheet tooling development relating to books on Wikidata for {{Cite Q}} use albeit :ga does not have {{Cite Q}} and :Simple does. Deirge was also doing the User talk:Djm-leighpark/B updates recently due to potential issues with indef-block-related stuff for a couple of the books. It is best to think of me as having multiple personalities: different views on the same database, the multiple voices of the schizophrenic, the 3 persons in one God mystery of the Trinity ... however some censoring admins on the English will see only sockpuppets and block evasion and ask other questions afterwards, 8482636 for contemplation. To get back to Stoker the idea for an article was when Deirge was doing some belated image uploads for commons relating to a visit to South Sligo and identifying monuments on a sort of belated WLM drive and trying to understand how perhaps the id's for state protected monuments work and making banshee cries as to why certain ones do and do not end up fed into WLM. Anyway as sidestory Bram/Charlotte Stoker came up on one of my searches and preliminary assessment suggested Charlotte might be a candidate for a stub article for Deirge on :ga. Further research indicated a start/C-Class (:English classification levels) might be possible and sufficient to be UNDUE for a sentence/paragraph in Bram Stoker. Deirge located two relevant borrowable books and a portrait of Charlotte and got these to commons/wikidata and Cite Q checks made. Djm-leighpark began a stub on :Simple and at one point Deirge & DJM were going to do a parallel development. While development on :En would have been the easiest option indef block made that impossible so in the end primary development on :Simple was decided upon as that presents a relatively easy translate to :Ga and :En albeit at the cost of the restrictions of (attempting) to prose to :Simple which leads to some constraints, some omissions that would be useful (including dome quotes), and some links to articles that would be useful but for which there was no article on :Simple. Last night the :Simple development reached a point where a :ga article could be created for for mainspace so that was done (prepping it also revealed a couple of issues with the :Simple article). This morning the :Simple article was moved to mainspace. Having said all the above I was of the realisation the earwiging might show a high correlation which would distract people and I was thinking posting an explanation to the talk page / contribution history but you beat me to it. I hope to get round to that when the voices from the indef block and the gun video from the :En admin settle in my head. The gun video was in relation to a joke in relation to a covid-19 article and I am interested in the parallels between the 1832 Cholera outbreak and Covid-19 outbreak in South Sligo and that inappropriate gun video just keeps coming back into my head and I've had to battle through mental red mist to create this article! -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 09:37, 25 October 2022 (UTC) User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 09:37, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

@MathXplore: Thanks for reviewing and tidying up the Charlotte Stoker article on :Simple. I was tempted to put subsections in the bio. muyself but I'm usually accused of over-sectioning - perhaps a lay-over habit from some lazy 3GL techniques of developing a program ... like guess a set of modules and kick them into shape. I would have chosen rubbish section names anyway! But thanks for second pair of eyes - always useful - and I usually a third party to tidy up after any article I produce. Thanks again. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 17:25, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Djm-leighpark! Here at Simple English Wikipedia we use the section heading "Related pages" instead of English Wikipedia's "See also", which you used in "Train". This makes it simpler and easier to read. Please remember to use "Related pages" in articles that you create in the future. Thank you for your help! --Ferien (talk) 19:27, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

@Ferien: Thanks for the remainder. I'll try to remember that in future, but I'm sure people will fix it when I fail. I've actually removed it anyway as I really don't like the related pages/see also thing but I was making a quick bold decision about an {{See also}}{{About}} hatnote. The Train article is a bit of mess with plenty of poor and the way the good faith IP was going is likely to make it worse by undue emphasis. I'm more interested in the incorrect uncited original research essays in the article rather than section headers and would prefer to be focusing on that, not to mention working on some bare URLs on Trinity College Dublin which has been created as needed support to Charlotte Stoker and multiple other articles. Thankyou. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 19:54, 25 October 2022 (UTC)

Hello, Djm-leighpark! Here at Simple English Wikipedia we use the section heading "Other websites" instead of English Wikipedia's "External links", which you used in "Emilie Pine". This makes it simpler and easier to read. Please remember to use "Other websites" in articles that you create in the future. Thank you for your help! MathXplore (talk) 05:21, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

@MathXplore. Now if you want that then I suggest you but in that information to the developers of the translation tool or organisa for a bottom fix it like they fix pretty well everything else. That would be the clever thing to do surely. To be frank I'm going to notice that you made edit Special:/Diff=8540458Special:Diff/8540458 and it is probably sufficient to simply make that edit and you'll likely get a thank for it and that save big discussion on the talk page about a trivial matter. To be frank my mind was elsewhere on about ten other things that needed to be cleaned up after the translate and I really ought to be checking on other things to ensure the attributions are correct. While the .ga article was majored by my alt. account Deirge that in turn was translated from from .sv. And I've only put it here on simple so a #SheSaid entry was possible on wikiquote. Anyway I don't think the translation tools follows Wikipedia:Transwiki attribution adding a {{translated page}} to the page and that is probably more important if not as visible. Thankyou. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 08:34, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

Railway speed record

Is there a reason you reverted the removal of incorrect referencing which is causing an error on that page? Did you even look at what you were reverting? The fact that there is two archive-urls is blatantly displayed on the preview and the fact that the original url is being listed as both the original and the archived url is clearly an issue that needs to be corrected. As it is now, the reference is incorrect and the page is tagged as an error in need of attention. Pure Evil (talk) 06:19, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

@Pure Evil: Yes: the reason was that while the problem was blatant to you it was unfortunately not blatant to me at that time and lack of an edit summary combined with choice of username was not helpful. If I understand correctly you've corrected the issue at Special:Diff/8640413 and improved the article generally. Again you seem to have failed to provide an edit summary which is not particularly helpful to me. Thankyou. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 08:06, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

"Warning: Railway speed record is calling Template:Cite web with more than one value for the "archive-url" parameter. Only the last value provided will be used." and being listed in Category:Pages using duplicate arguments in template calls are pretty blatant that there is an error in the article. The first is shown on the preview of the edit. Just hit preview changes and there the warning sits. The second is a hidden category on the page while the error is present. It is one of many maintenance categories that need to be turned on to see so most common users do not have to see them.

I did not feel the need to point out that you screwed up 2x in this edit and only fixed one while leaving the other in the article for others to clean up for you. I am not here to hold your hand while fixing problems you cause. Had you made the edit correctly or cleaned up after yourself, this would not have been needed. Pure Evil (talk) 15:39, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

@Pure Evil: Are you here to rant on and put people off? With your behaviour would I be inclined to recommend the simple English Wikipedia to anyone? Ah well. -- User:Djm-leighpark_(a)^talk 16:22, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

I see your activities have started beginning as you did before in enwiki. I would like to refer WP:ONESTRIKE, as you are blocked on ENWP for en:WP:BATTLEGROUND and WP:CIR. If you did break any rules just for arguing, you may be blocked per one strike policy. We want all users to change themselves to gradually improve their skills in WP. So, watch your tongue and try to learn instead. Thanks. Dibyojyoti^{let's chat} 16:40, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
