Welcome![edit]

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia

Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
No edit warring or sock puppetry.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.

The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

PLEASE STOP[edit]

...adding interwikis to templates. You are placing them outside the <noinclude>...</noinclude> sections, meaning that every page using the template has the interwiki link added in the sidebar. Please stop and revert your additions. -- [[User:Edokter]] {{talk}} 16:24, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Edokter: I know, I'll back later to add noinclude. Please wait some minutes.--M777 (talk) 16:28, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, stop now! This is quite disruptive. Interwikis are deprecated anyway and you cannot rely on bots. -- [[User:Edokter]] {{talk}} 16:29, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted three or four of these, but I'll be rolling back the rest to save time. Alakzi (talk) 16:33, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Edokter and Alakzi: Ok, I've stopped. What about re-adding arz interwikis inside <noinclude>...</noinclude> sections?--M777 (talk) 16:39, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You should be adding them to Wikidata; no bot will copy them over. Alakzi (talk) 16:40, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(ec) Interwikis should be added on WikiData, not here. Nor should they be added here for a bot to be moved. Ask on Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) to see if there are more efficient ways for adding links in volume to WikiData. -- [[User:Edokter]] {{talk}} 16:43, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Edokter and Alakzi: What I'm talking about is to put arz interwikis here temporarily and bots, such as Addbot, will migrate them to wikidata. I see no other technical way to add all these interwikis to Wikidata in a good way.--M777 ^✉ 16:49, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Then ask on the page I linked to. This is definitely not the way. I don't even know iof we have such a bot. Don't asume one exists. -- [[User:Edokter]] {{talk}} 17:13, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
