This sandbox

Greetings, @KevRobbZU:, and congratulations on your new sandbox for Barraba, NSW in the ZU WP. This is an excellent word list for a geographic locale, and it provides ideas for improving geography stub articles. Are you a speaker of isiZulu or related languages? If you'd agree, adding Babel boxes to your User page would be a relevant addition for your fellow editors. You can get the Babel box syntax from mine in Hlela umthombo (Edit view). -- Cheers, Deborahjay (talk) 07:43, 11 uNhlaba 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Section headings in ZU WP

One of my editing activities in the ZU WP (and XH WP) is standardizing terms used on pages. So I made two changes to your sandbox vocabulary list based on a recent discussion with an active ZU WP editor who's a native speaker and handles such queries. See User talk:Njabulo19#Page section headings in isiZulu. Feel free to contact us on collaborative activity! Another helpful place to check existing vocabulary is in Wikidata to see how a page or category name is spelled in your target language, if it's already an item. This takes a bit of guesswork, but I do this quite often and find it often pays off. -- Deborahjay (talk) 07:48, 11 uNhlaba 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Barraba in AF WP as model

Perhaps you've already thought of this suggestion to streamline your article creation process in other languages:

Translate the af:Barraba article to English with all its content and format.
Create Barraba in the Simple English WP.
Use that as the model article to translate into other languages (e.g. ZU, XH...).

See my comment on the AF WP: af:Bespreking:Barraba#Well-written article. Be sure to link all your created pages to Barraba in Wikidata. -- Deborahjay (talk) 11:02, 11 uNhlaba 2018 (UTC)[reply]
