News about Chinese Wikipedia

My edits are reverted. It's no big deal. Also, I received a strange and reasonable request from Justiyaya's side. Then I would like to discuss it a little with others here.

First tell @Justiyaya: Please remove my name from the edit summary, I don't like this kind of mention. This is very important, I request to remove my name.

Next on the topic, the guidelines here also do not mention that news reports can only be in English. Is it okay for me to put up Chinese media coverage of Wikipedia? I think the impact of the falsification of the entry is significant, and it concerns other language versions. The English media has not reported on this yet, so I feel it is important to include at least one source.--Beta LohmanOffice box 18:06, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please see also User talk:Justiyaya#Wikipedia:Press coverage 2022. @Beta Lohman, I'm not sure that the removal is possible. Apologies for putting your name in the edit summary. I believe there is already one source in the page without much objection. Justiyaya 18:21, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You may ask the admin to delete it, figure it out. --Beta LohmanOffice box 18:28, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
There is no rule that non-English press can't be added. But the items on this page should be what can be reasonably be called "press", like the remaining China Press (see also text at top of [1]) That excludes blogs and other WP:SPS, there is a separate page for blogs.
Also, when adding non-English items consider using the "trans-title" and "quote" parameters (translate the quote to English), since that will help readers. And this may go without saying, but don't add stuff in languages you don't know yourself. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 19:17, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'll see what happens with the translation of the quotation. The whole article is about the Chinese Wikipedia, and the full-text translation will take up a lot of space.--Beta LohmanOffice box 15:04, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I didn't mean the full text, just a fitting quote like you see with the other items on the page. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:59, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • "一內地網民偽造大量引用資料 亂寫古俄史條目". HK01. 2022-06-20. Retrieved 2022-06-21.
I will add this article from HK01. After all, it also makes a slight reference to the English Wikipedia.--Beta LohmanOffice box 15:03, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Beta Lohman, you may want to mention the ancien Rus' thing to the Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost people at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/Newsroom/Suggestions. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:52, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
