You do not need to be an educator to edit. You only need to be bold to contribute and to experiment with the sandbox or your userpage. See you around Wikiversity! --Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 12:50, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Sylheti language
We base our content titles on Wikipedia names. We don't have the capacity to deal with extended discussions over what something should be named. If you are convinced this should be named Syloti language, please get Wikipedia to rename their article using the Wikipedia:Talk:Sylheti_language page. Thanks! -- Dave Braunschweig (discuss • contribs) 12:54, 21 July 2022 (UTC)


 * It will do. I have redirected one page. Congariel (discuss • contribs) 23:23, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

Regarding redirection, no problem. Regarding copying existing content and blanking the original, big problem. This is a license violation. Everyone who contributed to the page before must have their contributions listed in the page history. The correct way to do this is to move the page (rename it), vs. copy and blank. I have done my best to clean up the error, but because of timing, the results may not match your final edits. Check the page history. Your final edits are there somewhere. Find the current content and update it to match.

Regarding changes by Aideppp, those were all copyright / license violations and were deleted. That account is a documented abuse account on Wikipedia and is now blocked here. The subpages have been correctly moved to Sylheti language, but the changes made after that were deleted. Please ask for assistance before making massive changes. Most of these problems could have been avoided if we knew in advance all you were trying to do was rename the project and then make improvements. Thanks!

 * Syloti-Nagri alphabet - Omniglot
 * Syloti - Endangered Alphabets
 * Sylheti phrases - Useful phrases in Sylheti
 * Sylheti language lessons - SOAS University of London
