Welcome!

Hello, Linglenglang, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Adam and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Move proposal

edit

Hi, Linglenglang. I took a look at your move proposal. I think you've prepared well. I've moved it to User talk:Linglenglang/sandbox, because it will eventually go on a talk page and those use the source editor.

I suggest you edit it down to the core. In short (1-2 sentence) paragraphs, support the arguments you still have to. The section on academic papers is good, but instead of listing out the three theses which used the old term in parenthesis, you can just link the one that isn't and say that the remainder were graduate theses/dissertations. I've edited down your paragraph on the tribe's position. Normally another editor would never edit someone else's talk page comments for content (and only seldom for formatting), but I want to show you what I meant about brevity rather than discuss it. Oh, and this comes from long experience. Say you "have three reasons" rather than your argument is threefold.  :)

A few bits to trim then you can post that on the talk page in a new section, making sure to copy from the source editor into the new section, not from the page as it is rendered when you're not editing. Adam (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:46, 21 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
