Where have you been?

I personally missed your productive work here. Hope you are fully back to continue the good work? Greetings from my Lagos home. T Cells^Talk 19:22, 16 Oṣù Kẹ̀sán 2019 (UTC)

We are missing you. Where have you been? T Cells^Talk 17:17, 16 Oṣù Kejìlá 2019 (UTC)

Dear T, thank you so much for your kind and encouraging messages, and please forgive my late reply. This past year I've unfortunately done much less in all the WP projects while trying to improve my home life, and still hope to find my way back to activity in both. Specifically towards our mutual interest here: most of what I did in the Yoruba WP was alphabetizing biography page names in categories by use of the DEFAULTSORT template - and then in Wikidata I discovered that the proper (but much more time-consuming) way is to create statements there of Given Name and Family Name for each biography item. I started learning the rules with female names in Hebrew because many are also in European languages and I know or can find the alternate spellings. It's a slow process but valuable. I look forward to a fruitful year 2020 for us and all the Wikipedia community. Be well! -- Deborahjay (ọ̀rọ̀) 21:07, 24 Oṣù Kejìlá 2019 (UTC)

Thank you my friend. I am happy you are back. T Cells^Talk 14:56, 26 Oṣù Kejìlá 2019 (UTC)

Request about new page

Please how do I publish the article and make it available online? Unsigned comment by Oníṣe:Olafeelcool2 at 15:42, 27 Oṣù Kejì 2020‎

The new page on Jiopolima is now under construction in a "test box" (Àpótí àdánwò). Let's discuss this on its Talk page. -- Deborahjay (ọ̀rọ̀) 17:36, 27 Oṣù Kejì 2020 (UTC)

Request writing about Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386)

Hello Deborahjay, Would you like to write / translate about Isabelle de Charrière (Q123386) for the YO wiki? Her asteroid 9604 Bellevanzuylen (Q268097) is already written for the YO.wiki. That would be appreciated. Boss-well63 (ọ̀rọ̀) 10:32, 23 Oṣù Kẹjọ 2021 (UTC)

Boss-well, thank you for your message. This is a good opportunity to discuss volunteer efforts (yours and mine) on this project. Here are some thoughts:

• I don't know the Yoruba language, and I only translate into languages in which I'm fluent and have studied.
• I don't think this topic (the 18th C. European namesake of an asteroid) is a good one for the Yoruba Wikipedia, so not worth the effort even of a Yoruba speaker.
• The Ẹ̀ka:Àwọn ástẹ́rọ́ìdì has 14,735 pages, each on a single asteroid, each with only one sentence and one (this) category. They were all created in the year 2011 by one user, and evidently never improved. This number is now 44% (!) of the total articles in the Yoruba Wikipedia. I find this problematic.

What is your opinion? What directions can you suggest to proceed? Deborahjay (ọ̀rọ̀) 13:25, 26 Oṣù Kẹjọ 2021 (UTC)
