Welcome to Wikipedia, Anatoly

You seem to be interested in adding etymological background to Wikipedia, and you include sources for your edits, which is good. Unfortunately, you are not familiar with how Wikipedia formats in-line citations. Please carefully read the blue-linked article, and make sure you understand the process.
There may also be an issue with your English prose familiarity, as prose is more than individual words. Firstly, judgment is required to determine if your edit makes the article better. See: WP:NOTEVERYTHING. You are required to merge additions to Wikipedia articles smoothly, so that your edit does not seem like an alien intruder. This requires correctly identifying the place in the article where your addition best fits, and wording the addition so that it blends in unobtrusively. Also, please familiarize yourself with encyclopedic style and avoid making comments appropriate for a forum, as Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. If this continues to be a problem for you, you would do best to put an WP:edit request on the WP:Talk page of the article you wish to edit.--Quisqualis (talk) 19:59, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
  

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
