Please be bold and help translate this article! The Whang Youn Dai Achievement Award is named after South Korean Dr. Whang Youn Dai, who contracted polio at the age of three. She devoted her life to the development of paralympic sport in Korea and around the world. At the 1988 Paralympic Summer Games in Seoul, Korea, the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) recognized her lifelong contributions to the Paralympic Movement and established the Whang Youn Dai Achievement Award (formerly the Whang Youn Dai Overcome Prize). Since then, this award has been presented at every Paralympic Games to one male and one female athlete who each "best exemplify the spirit of the Games and inspire and excite the world".

InterlingueEdit
Hi, could you please tell me, regarding the Interlingue article, whether I should keep the tables with pronouns and verbs in the main article or I just move them to the one regarding Interlingue grammar? --Caro de Segeda (talk) 07:49, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- If they are not yet in thegrammar article, they are certainly helpful there. As to whether to also have them in the main article, I don't know. Its certainly interesting to see how verbs and adverbs work in Interlingue. en:French_language has such tables in the Grammar section, our article doesn't. In the end, its your call.--Eptalon (talk) 08:51, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- Ok, thank. Another question: regarding the history of the language. Do you think I should simplify the already existing text or maybe keep less information and move it to another one, or is it fine the way it is now? I still need to add the references but I am leaving that for now. --Caro de Segeda (talk) 09:02, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- Without going into too much detail, it looks ok for now. As a quick tip: If you target the "Very good article", I'd first go for the good article. Looking at the process, I have promoted a few articles to good article status this year. The last promotion to VGA was in August 2020, a year ago. The last promotions to good article were in July 2021. --Eptalon (talk) 09:11, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
- I will add the references and then I will presented for ga. Thanks for your help and sorry for bothering you with this. --Caro de Segeda (talk) 09:17, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Don't worry about it, we really need more people participating in the community processes. I would really love to get new VGAs, but ven getting an article to GA level is a lot of work (just look at how many propositions sit in the proposal stage...)--Eptalon (talk) 09:25, 16 September 2021 (UTC)
My articleEdit
Hi, can I ask why you deleted my article even without setting any tags like speedy deletion or ...? and kept articles like Cash High?! please restore my article to add more references. ZEP55 (talk) 21:45, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
- I had the impression it wasn't notable, but I have restored the page, and we will run a regular RfD. This also means that likely it will no longer be me closing that request. Good luck...--Eptalon (talk) 22:08, 18 September 2021 (UTC)
I don't understandEdit
Dear Eptalon! I don't understand what you mean by "no context" in the last sentence in the RFD statement! Haoreima (talk) 11:53, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
- If i read the page, I find the dates 1710-1780 (assumed to be Anno Domini, the count where we are currently at 2021). At the same time, I seem to find color images of the person (photography started in the late 19th century, IIRC, true color images are from the mid 20th century). --Eptalon (talk) 11:58, 20 September 2021 (UTC)
Deleted article created againEdit
Hello, i want to let you know that Mizanur Rahman Azhari was created again as Mizanur Rahman (Bangladeshi Islamic Preacher). It was deleted several times here and even on enwiki. You even SALT the article (enwiki also did the same). It probably quality as wp:SPEEDY. I'm not familiar with this wiki, i will leave it to you to decide. Thank you. আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 19:47, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know. The old discussion was at the start of the year, too long ago to simply QD this as "likely same as discussed". I started a regular request for deletion, let's see what the result is.--Eptalon (talk) 22:13, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
Temporary protection requestEdit
Hello.
The IP 212.108.146.62 (likely the same person as 185.135.96.2) is striking again and again in the same articles and also in other articles. User:Etoza has reported this IP in Wikipedia:Vandalism in progress for Block evasion, as I did before about this IP's vandalism. The IP will not stop with his/her disruptive edits and behavior. The most recent articles he vandalized on 23 September are Israel, Baklava, Pita, Republic of Artsakh, Kadaif and Dolma. The other articles he vandalizes with POV pushing: Flag, Tricolour, Doner kebab, Yogurt, Country, Azerbaijan, and Shambali, will very likely follow.
Nothing will stop and deter this IP, unless these articles and the IP are temporarily blocked for a much longer period.
Yours sincerely, Multituberculata (talk) 23:00, 26 September 2021 (UTC)
Wikipedia translation of the week: 2021-39Edit
| The winner this Translation of the week is
Please be bold and help translate this article!  Behavior-altering parasites are parasites with two or more hosts, capable of causing changes in the behavior of one of their hosts to enhance their transmission, sometimes directly affecting the hosts' decision-making and behavior control mechanisms. They do this by making the intermediate host, where they may reproduce asexually, more likely to be eaten by a predator at a higher trophic level which becomes the definitive host where the parasite reproduces sexually. Examples can be found in bacteria, protozoa, viruses, and animals. Parasites may also alter the host behaviour to increase the protection to the parasites or their offspring. The term bodyguard manipulation is used for such mechanisms. Among the behavioral changes caused by parasites is carelessness, making their hosts easier prey. The protozoan Toxoplasma gondii, for example, infects small rodents and causes them to become careless and may even cause them to become attracted to the smell of feline urine, both of which increase their risk of predation and the parasite's chance of infecting a cat, its definitive host.
