Notability eedit

Hey there. As has been pointed out twice before, we're trying to ensure that articles on the wiki have verifiable and notable information. In order to achieve this, articles must have sources. Furthermore, articles should be substantious, which requires more than just listing a person's relations (we're nae a genealogy site after all). Please try and find sources and add more information beyond a person's genealogy in future, or the articles ye're creating may be deleted CiphriusKane (tauk) 21:15, 12 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Your edits eedit

Hey Tom. It's become clear that your Scots ability is lacking and what you're creating is Scotched English. I'm not sure if you're aware, but for the better part of a decade well meaning non-Scots speakers contributed thousands of similarly Scotched articles to the wiki, and we're now having to clean them all up.

As such, I'm going to have to ask you to slow down with the page creation. You are repeating the exact same actions as the other Scotchers, churning out page after page of Scotched English in an unencylopaedic manner (such as being stubs, lacking notability and lacking references) and we just do not have the manpower to keep up and fix all these pages on top of all the other pages that need to be fixed. While we appreciate your efforts in creating pages, you just do not have the language competence to be writing articles for the wiki.

I'm also a bit concerned that the pages you are creating may be copyright violations. Comparing this and this there are some cases of close paraphrasing, which could be a violation of intellectual property rights as no attribution was given.

My advice to you is that you take a break from the wiki and learn actual Scots. The Open University has a basic Scots language course, and Michael Dempster has a 10-hour course on YouTube (found here). Additionally, feel free to join the 'E Scots Leid Discord server, which we're using as an unofficial wiki server, invite link Discord here CiphriusKane (tauk) 21:12, 12 Dizember 2020 (UTC)
