Welcome to Wikimedia Incubator!

At the right there are some important links, and here are some tips and info:

• If you haven't created a user page yet, please create one with for example Babel templates on it.
• You can select your interface language in your preferences.
• If you make articles, templates or categories, don't forget to add a prefix!
• If your knowledge of English is good, you can help with translating pages to other languages you know, so more people can understand them!
• If you want to translate the interface, please go to Translatewiki.net and follow their instructions.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them on Incubator:Community Portal.

Hello!

Hi there, thank you for contributing to the Fante Incubator. Please I want to bring to your notice that all the articles you are creating is written in the Twi Language. You can help by contributing on that Wikipedia. Thank you Robertjamal12 (talk) 16:00, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Copyright issues

The way you are adding text to this wiki unfortunately violates the terms of the licenses that Wikimedia wikis operate under (see, for example, en:Wikipedia:Copyrights#Re-use of text). To be specific, when you "copy and paste" text (even if you're translating it) from an English Wikipedia article like en:Eureka Emefa Adomako, which you did at Wp/fat/Eureka Emefa Adomako, you need to include an attribution to the original source. For example, you could include in your edit summary a statement such as "translated from [[:en:Eureka Emefa Adomako]]".

In addition, not including the original references (which show up in copied text as bracketed numbers like "[1]") potentially violates the copyrights of whatever sources the original article was based on (or, at the very least, results in an unreferenced article, which is also bad). So, you should also copy the "References" section of the original article, as you have done in other cases. And try to merge that information into the appropriate places in the main article text, inside of "<ref>…</ref>" elements. (Oh, I see you've already started to do that. OK… but you should include the other information, like titles, journal names, etc., like I did here) - dcljr (talk) 04:08, 5 April 2023 (UTC)

fat.wikipedia.org has been created

Hello! fat: is now live and all content from Wp/fat should have been transferred from here to there. If anything is missing, please let me know so I can fix it.

Now, when a wiki is brand new like now, there are some problems in the start. I will list the ones I am aware of here, so you will be aware that this is normal for brand new wikis. These problems should be solved "automatically" within a few days – if any of these problems last more than 1 week, please do contact me, and I can help find someone to fix them.

1. The Visual Editor and the DiscussionTools might not work as expected. It may be possible to create new pages with the Visual Editor, and new threads with DiscussionTools, but editing existing pages or replying to threads might not work. For now, you can use the source code editor.
2. Connections to Wikidata might not work yet.
3. Statistics on Special:Statistics and via magic words like {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} aren't updated yet, so they will mostly show 0. This should be updated within 1 day.

You may also notice a discrepancy between the number of pages shown in Special:Statistics. For a page to be counted in the statistics, it needs to have at least one [[internal link]]. So if the number is smaller than you expect, that doesn't mean that articles are missing, but it means you (as a community) will need to add more links to articles.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, congratulations and best of luck with the new wiki! --MF-W {a, b} 06:37, 21 April 2023 (UTC)
