User talk:MasterQuestionable

--EncycloPetey (talk) 03:57, 12 July 2023 (UTC) 	Thanks for the welcome.

I'm planning on integrating all my user talk pages across projects to somewhere ("meta.wikimedia.org", I believe). Though it all looks somewhat, sophisticated. - MasterQuestionable (talk) 20:30, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Coincidence
I see the text has come from zh.wikisource, but where did the English come from? Is it a published translation from somewhere? Is it your own translation?

If it is your own translation, the original should have a scanned source on the zh. WS. See Translations, under "Wikisource original translations". With no backing source on the home Wikisource, we cannot determine whether or not the original is accurate. --EncycloPetey (talk) 03:57, 12 July 2023 (UTC) 	Self work, likely. Though I cannot guarantee the very text haven't appeared anywhere else before.

I don't use paper media. So cannot I provide which and assure whether or not the original is accurate.

Some searching has indicated the source being relatively accurate. Though absolutely, no guarantee. Even if we indeed have a scanned source of which, whatsoever. - MasterQuestionable (talk) 20:30, 12 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I have moved the work from main namespace to your user space. The work has enough uncertainty about source, provenance, published status, etc. that it should not be in main ns. If the work is found to be suitable per both What Wikisource includes and Translations then we can relocate it. — billinghurst  sDrewth  22:15, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Is it possible to selectively merge certain edit histories across various WM projects into "meta.wikimedia.org" and "test.wikipedia.org"? - MasterQuestionable (talk) 00:49, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not here to have philosophical discussions about certainty. I am here to say that with uncertainty about the work meeting our criteria for inclusion, then we will operate as how the community has developed our guidance. If you wish to contribute works to this wiki, then we need answers that align to the specific inclusion criteria at the two pages to which you were directed. Metawiki and testwiki are not relevant to this conversation, those wikis have their own functions and that is not hosting literary works. — billinghurst  sDrewth  02:05, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

	Practice at your will. Circumscribing valid contributions via so called criteria circumlocution. Quite confusing practice.

That's an entirely different topic. But whatsoever. - MasterQuestionable (talk) 20:03, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
