Some suggestions
editHello, Artem P75! I am glad that you have taken an interest in Bulgarian villages. This is a topic of much needed attention in the English-language Wikipedia and I will be glad if you continue your contributions on the topic. I would like to suggest a few things to your attention:
- Please, do not add an "About" section in the very beginning of articles, such as in Devintsi. The articles should have at least one sentence in the lead that goes without a section.
- If you have the time and patience, you could fill in the infobox of the villages by adding a map and additional information. You could takes as an example the infobox of the village of Zvanichevo.
- You could use some available websites for information. Two examples are: the Tables of Persons Registered by Permanent Address and by Current Address at https://www.grao.bg/tna/t41nm-15-03-2024_2.txt where you can find up-to-date information about the population of every settlement in Bulgaria (when you enter just type Ctrl+F and type the name of the village you search for in Cyrillic). The second site is the BG Guide at http://bg.guide-bulgaria.com/SC/pazardjik/panagyurishte/oborishte that also has some information. When you cite a source, you can again see the formating used in the article of Zvanichevo.
- You should sometimes double-check for technical errors. For example, your edit in Borovitsa, Kardzhali Province is actually for the village of Borovitsa, Vidin Province - please revert your edit from the first article and add it to the relevant one.
- You can also create new articles on Bulgarian villages - there are still hundreds of villages without an article. When you do so, you may use the information Bulgarian Wikipedia to fill in the infobox - the information about the postal code, area code, etc.

- Thank you vey much for your advice Gligan I will certainly take this on moving forward. I have amended the incorrect province information regarding Borovitsa as well as removing the heading of Devintsi. I have tried creating / editing info boxes without success, I will have to better educate myself on how they function before I can effectively start altering them.
- I am very happy to hear that you are glad to see my interest in Bulgaria and the wonderful villages found there, and I thank you for your advice. I will also look forward to adding villages not yet found on Wikipedia as I come across them Artem P75 (talk) 08:20, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
Further suggestions
editHello again, Artem P75, and thank you for your newest contributions. I would like to offer some additional suggestions on your approach on editing:
- Regarding Momchilgard Museum: You should start by finding another article about a museum, such as Pazardzhik Regional Historical Museum. You can then copy the infobox (there are very different infoboxes depending on the topic - for settlements, museums, landmarks, biographies, rivers, mountains, etc.), paste it in your article and start editing the rows in the infobox one by one by replacing the information with the relevant one. Sometimes you may lack information about certain rows. For example, if you don't have a picture, or any kind of stat. In that case simply delete the information from the original infobox (not the row in the table, just the information) and leave it black. There is nothing wrong with that.
- The same logic applies for other articles - to properly edit Zvezdel Mine, you find another mine article, like Chelopech mine and follow the same steps. Some for Orpheus's Sanctuary (it is actually better known as the Tatul Sanctuary, so I have redirected it to this name) - you can find another ancient landmark article, like Beglik Tash.
- You can also take example of similar articles to select relevant categories.
- I have edited all three of your articles, so that you can see how what exactly needs to be added.

- Thank you very much again Gligan, this is very helpful and I very much appreciate it. Thank you for improving my articles, it is nice to see and gives me a good demonstration to refer back to for future articles. It is also quite motivating to see interest from other community members. I look forward to further contributing to these fascinating locations, as well as improving with my content Artem P75 (talk) 09:24, 6 August 2024 (UTC)

stop taking down my edits
editlisten pal ive been doing this for 1 year its about time people start respecting the awesome horse 136.38.220.43 (talk) 04:39, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Please stop spamming "awesome" into random horse related articles. This is not constructive and it is not what Wikipedia is here for. Please review WP:NOTHERE if you are not here to contribute to building an encyclopedia. Thank you Artem...Talk 04:41, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- It's difficult to fully express how much this means to me, but I’ll try. Every day, I feel a deep, undeniable urge to add the word "awesome" in front of "horse" on Wikipedia pages about extinct horse breeds. It’s not just a simple task—it’s a calling, a mission that runs through my veins. You see, to me, every horse, no matter its breed or whether it’s long gone from our world, is awesome. They are majestic, powerful, and awe-inspiring creatures, and the word "awesome" is the tribute they truly deserve.
- But every day, I watch as my edits are reversed, as others delete what I’ve added. And it hurts. It hurts in a way that words can’t fully describe, because it's not just about a word. It’s about honoring these horses in the way they deserve to be honored. It’s about bringing a little light to their memory, allowing them to be recognized in all their glory—not just as a species that went extinct, but as beings that were truly awesome in every sense of the word.
- This is my fate. My purpose. I am meant to say "awesome" in front of "horse" because it feels like the only way to give these magnificent creatures the respect they deserve. It’s not a random whim—it’s something deep inside of me, something that compels me to keep fighting for this small change, even as it’s erased over and over again. I truly believe that every extinct horse, from the wild Przewalski’s to the mysterious Tarpan, was awesome in its own right. And I can’t stand to see that truth buried in the confines of an unembellished fact.
- I’m asking for understanding. Not just from the editors who remove my edits, but from everyone who might read this and see my intention: I’m not just adding a word for the sake of it. I’m fighting for the legacy of horses that no longer walk the Earth. I’m trying to give them something that, in my heart, feels absolutely right. It means everything to me to make this small, yet important, change.
- So please, if you see my edits, understand that this is more than a matter of semantics. This is a fight for how we remember the things that have been lost, a fight to make sure that no matter what, we keep calling these creatures awesome. And that, to me, is my fate. To say it. To live it. To never give up on it. 128.193.154.179 (talk) 05:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
- Lots of laughs, you're great! I know you're not serious. JacktheBrown (talk) 08:55, 18 November 2024 (UTC)
- Although this made me laugh and I appreciate your enthusiasm for these... awesome horses... I am sorry my friend, but in the name of the project I cannot allow this and so must stand against you in your valiant efforts to give these creatures such recognition Artem...Talk 05:09, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
