Revision as of 15:14, 24 October 2010
Welcome!
Welcome to Misplaced Pages, Rapsar! I am Marek69 and have been editing Misplaced Pages for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Misplaced Pages! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Misplaced Pages
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Misplaced Pages:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome!

Translations of articles from one Misplaced Pages to another
Hi, thank you for translating the La Massana article on English Misplaced Pages into Turkish here and here. When you translate an article, you need to tell other people that you copied it from another Misplaced Pages by putting a message on the talk/discussion page of the translated article and by making an edit to the translated article with an appropriate edit summary. This policy is described Misplaced Pages:Translation, and it applies to all translations from English Misplaced Pages into other languages.
If the template existed on Turkish Misplaced Pages, you could put {{translated page|en|La Massana|368732969|8241697}} on the talk page tr:Tartışma:La Massana, but you need to check this as I do not know what the correct way of acknowledging translations is on trwiki. Please could you look it up and add whatever message you need on the talk page tr:Tartışma:La Massana, and also make an edit to the article tr:La Massana with an appropriate edit summary?
If you have any questions about this, please feel free to ask me here (not on my talk page because my ip address might change) or on the administrator's noticeboard. Thanks, 85.94.184.115 (talk) 02:24, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

- Hi again. Both English Misplaced Pages and Turkish Misplaced Pages are governed by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use. One of the rules is that nobody is allowed to translate or copy any part of any article from another Misplaced Pages unless they say where they translated or copied it from. This is a rule which applies to all Wikipedias including Turkish Misplaced Pages.
- Your Turkish translation does include material from the English original; in fact, it is almost a word-for-word translation (it doesn't matter whether your version is longer or shorter). At the moment, your translated article and the talk page do not say anything about the origin of the article, which is English Misplaced Pages's La Massana. I could be wrong, but I think that that is against the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use.
- Please could you ask an administrator on Turkish Misplaced Pages to confirm whether there are any policies on Turkish Misplaced Pages to deal with articles translated from other Wikipedias? If Turkish Misplaced Pages really does not have any such policies, it needs to develop some of its own. I think it would be helpful to involve the administrators on English Misplaced Pages. I will ask for some assistance. Thanks for your reply. 85.94.184.115 (talk) 15:14, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
