Welcome

Hello EnjoyBrowser557. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

You can ask more questions at the Teahouse or the Help Desk. Mike Turnbull (talk) 10:04, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, those are links? Welp in terms of this, kudos to you who gave me a greeting message. I will be contributing to Wikipedia with recent edits. /EnjoyBrowser557 (talk) (contributiuons) 21:21, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

English Fluency

On the WP:Teahouse page, you stated "My only languages I speak is English", yet your English is very stilted. Are you fluent in any other languages? Fabrickator (talk) 17:03, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Fabrickator Just to be fair though, I am not fluent in any other languages, such as French. Since, my only language is English, but however, mines is not very perfect despite the ability to cite sources and add content. /EnjoyBrowser557 (talk) (contributiuons) 21:24, 24 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not to belabour the point, but I am of the impression that you may, in fact, be – or else be using – some sort of rudimentary artificial intelligence to communicate on this Wikipedia. If that is the case, it is encouraged that you will promptly disclose this fact in a clear and unambiguous manner, for the benefit of other users. Thanks-- Quisqualis (talk) 02:29, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Quisqualis Thank you for notifying me, to be just honest, I am not using AI or anything, I am using my own words to describe on community and on my userpage. Sp, that is not a disclosure and my own coppurtunity on improving my English language on Wikipedia. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributiuons) 03:25, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

English does not strictly refer to Standard English. It is entirely possible this user natively speaks a different dialect or creole of English. Miyika .₊̣̇.ಇ/ᐠ｡ᆽ｡ᐟ \ 12:50, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Miyika Wow user, that is so correct, maybe I speak a different English dialect, plus my own goal is trying to communicate editors in fluent English as well as understanding those lessons on Wikipedia. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 14:34, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What dialect of English makes constructions like Since, my only language is English, but however, mines is not very perfect despite the ability to cite sources and add content likely from anyone whose first language is English? Valereee (talk) 19:36, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would say various dialects, including the first language I learned in the early past. However, that dialect or creole depends on geography, proving that there are different locations found, including slang, jargon, idioms, and other types of vocabulary. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 19:54, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Valereee A sentient entity would recognize that the question pertained to the dialect of the subject. Only a non-sentient entity would answer the question as though it were not a question about the subject's own dialect. Fabrickator (talk) 20:54, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure about sentient entity, might research soon or later in a meantime. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 21:48, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstars

@EnjoyBrowser557, do not overlook the fact that you can give yourself a barnstar when the situation warrants. For instance:

		The Userpage Barnstar
		For creating an informative userpage. Quisqualis (talk) 02:48, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh boy, thanks for giving me a barnstar. I would like to appreciate it if I did all of my intelligent work and improve on my contributions. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributiuons) 03:26, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summaries

I have some feedback regarding a couple of your "edit summary" entries.

Edit summaries generally ought to stand alone. Somebody looking at an edit summary isn't going to be looking at the edit summaries you've recently made to other articles, though referencing other edits of the same article is sensible, since looking at a series of edits in article history is an ordinary use case. Fabrickator (talk) 06:59, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, you can inform me that I might require improvement on edit summaries and especially outside mainspace. I will create a meaningful explanation if I made this edit. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 16:14, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I should have identified specific examples that I had in mind, such as the comment "Just like others ...". There's no context for that, so it's not much help. The other part of that same edit summary, "I updated the article with information" is barely any better. I'd hope for some clue that gives me an idea as to whether I'm likely to have any interest in that edit. Since your change involves "information", tell me something about the information. Maybe you're not actually changing any "information", maybe you're adding or updating citations. This is just a case of applying some common sense. Fabrickator (talk) 16:42, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You got it, as on the last reply, I will improve in a meantime. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 17:33, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit of City-state

Please explain the logic in adding the fact that Monaco is a global hub of money laundering (copied from the Monaco article) to city-state in your 25 May 2023 edit? Note how the pre-existing Monaco-related content in city-state is closely tied to the characterization of Monaco as a "city-state". Without such a connection, this content doesn't belong in City-state. Fabrickator (talk) 20:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Here is my explanation: Monaco is a global hub of money laundering, when I add information, I copied the parts of the detail from Monaco. Since, I do not definitely have considerable amount of time for finding new information, I decided to use information from Monaco article lead section to increase the detail in the content contained. I am trying to learn on how to copy the text from this article to another article, so that there is numerous detail available to any reader on Wikipedia. Furthermore, I just wanted to know that adding some related content to Monaco would give an idea about what is that specific nation. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 22:26, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not interested in your explanations of why you make inappropriate edits, I am interested in having you cease and desist from making inappropriate edits. This idea about "adding information" I think may be misleading you. Certainly, actual improvements to articles are desirable, but making an article longer is not synonymous with making it better.

Actually, the rationalizations you provide (e.g. I do not definitely have considerable amount of time for finding new information ... [so I] copy the text from this article to another article) are wholly inappropriate. You're free to choose which articles you want to work on, but this does not mean that it's okay to be self-centered about this. Others may say I shouldn't scare away the newbies, but that doesn't mean we should tolerate edits made without a sensible reason. Fabrickator (talk) 23:08, 25 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Oh well, I might contribute on improvements, however I have the freedom to select articles to work and edit usefully without vandalism or spam inserted. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 07:12, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't have the time to make a change that actually improves an article, then your time is certainly better spent by leaving the article alone. Really, what is the point in making a change that doesn't improve the article? Do you figure this gets you to some higher set of privileges sooner? Fabrickator (talk) 07:39, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

My point on making a change on that article is to update it. I figure that out, I will get some of these higher set of privileges sooner. I know I am going to do when I edit articles and make modifications. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 14:46, 26 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, welcome to Wikipedia.

Please make sure that you are not editing for the sole reason of getting additional privileges. Every permission except autoconfirmed and extended autoconfirmed requires you to make a request that is then handled by administrators. Speaking from my own experience in reviewing such requests, admins do not enjoy encountering editors that edit only to gain permissions rather than to improve the encyclopedia. Anarchyte (talk) 09:36, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I promise that I am not editing Wikipedia for the only reason of getting additional privileges. My own intention is to edit articles to update them by adding information and content to these articles. /EnjoyBrowser557 (userpage) (talk) (contributions) 14:37, 27 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
