If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Help desk. Thanks. Serols (talk) 17:07, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

Quest
[edit]It would be great if proper research would be done and the conclusions validated with The Lepcha Community and Experts before putting something in a platform where the whole world seeks information. Rachelmitnl (talk) 17:20, 24 September 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm AhmadLX. I noticed that you recently removed content from Lepcha people without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Please note that "offensive" is not a valid reason to remove relevant and referenced content. AhmadLX-(Wikiposta) 18:28, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
Your recent editing history at Lepcha people shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

From a Rongkup (Lepcha) about Rongkups
[edit]It is described in the given information regarding Lepchas that we the people have derived our language and script from Tibetan , that is offensive and also many other things that I will further illustrate but for now this point may help you understand better why I removed what I have removed Rachelmitnl (talk) 20:01, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- Please take note of the fact that Wikipedia is not a place to right great wrongs. Wikipedia is based solely on reliable, published sources. If you think these sources are incorrect, we still include them, along with any reliable, published sources which disagree. The purpose of Wikipedia is to increase human understanding, not to report the one "Truth", which is often in contention. Just keep in mind that your edits should be supported by reliable, published sources, using WP:In-line citations. Citing sources is extra work for editors, but it gives Wikipedia its credibility.--Quisqualis (talk) 03:06, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

Other opportunities
[edit]Hi Rachelmitnl,
The Wikimedia movement has more than just Wikipedia. If you are interested in documenting Róng culture, you could also consider:
- Add a non-copyright book in Róng Ring to Wikisource. It could be the first one in that language!
- Take photos of Róng cultural artefacts and donate them to Commons.
We don't have an oral history project right now; as an alternative you could use a blogging platform to record your traditions and to write about your experiences as a person of Róng heritage.
Best wishes,
(if you reply, please ping me so that I know, or leave a message on my talk page)
