Please be bold and help to translation this article!  The Kefermarkt altarpiece (German: Kefermarkter Flügelaltar) is an altarpiece in Late Gothic style in the parish church in Kefermarkt, Upper Austria. It was commissioned by the knight Christoph von Zellking and is estimated as finished in 1497. The richly decorated wooden altarpiece depicts the saints Peter, Wolfgang and Christopher in its central section. The side panels depict scenes from the life of Mary, and the altarpiece also has an intricate superstructure and two side figures showing saints George and Florian. The identity of its maker is unknown, but at least two skilled sculptors appear to have created the main statuary of the altarpiece. Throughout the centuries, the altarpiece has been altered and lost its original paint and gilding. A major restoration was made in the 19th century under the leadership of writer Adalbert Stifter. The altarpiece has been described as "one of the greatest achievements in late-medieval sculpture in the German-speaking area."

Please be bold and help to translation this article!  Jharia coalfield is the largest coal reserve in India having an estimated reserve of 19.4 billion tonnes of coking coal. The field is located in the east of India in Jharia, Jharkhand. The fields have suffered a coal bed fire since at least 1916, resulting in 37 millions tons of coal consumed by the fire, and significant ground subsidence and water and air pollution in local communities including the city of Jharia. The resulting pollution has led to a government agency designated for moving local populations, however, little progress has been made in the relocation.

HelpEdit
Greetings, please can you explain to me how to create an article on wikipedia in general English, I don't know if there is a manual to create an article, since every time I try it sends me to a creation wizard that is very different from wikipedia in Spanish which only allows me to create a draft but then it is deleted. You need help creating a wikipedia article in general English. I am a user of wikipedia in Spanish and I have never had experience in wikipedia in English. LeoPla99 (talk) 14:40, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hello, and welcome to this project. One easy way is to use the search box, and search for the article name that you want to create. You'll then either find an article with that name, or you'll have the option: "Create the page ... on this Wiki", where "..." is the term you search for. You then click on that term (which is in red) and are able to create the article. --Eptalon (talk) 14:52, 3 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Ep. In case you didn't know, on dab pages there should be only one blue link per entry. I removed the extra ones from the page High German that you created. --Auntof6 (talk) 23:49, 6 April 2021 (UTC)

Please be bold and help to translation this article!  Mammoth central is a paleontological site on the grounds of the Santa Lucía Airport in the state of Mexico, Mexico which contains the remains of at least 200 Columbian mammoths as well as 25 camels and five horses. The site is the world's largest concentration of mammoth remains; the previous was the Mammoth Site of Hot Springs in South Dakota with only 61 individuals. Human tools and carved bones have also been discovered at the site, suggesting that humans utilized the site to trap and kill large mammals. More fossils continue to be found at the site. The dig will end in 2022, when the airport's construction is projected to conclude.
