Mosque articles

Hello, and thanks for the articles you added about mosques. Would you go back to those articles and add something that says why each one is notable? Articles about most things need to say why the subject is notable, and I don't see that in these articles. If an article doesn't show notability, it might get deleted. Let me know if you have any questions about this. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 04:47, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I completely understand about that. I've just started to make the introductory part of the article. More detailed information will be added real soon. Chongkian (talk) 14:15, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Please be sure to use simple language in the articles. The ones I checked just now are fairly complex. Wikipedia:How to write Simple English pages has information that might help. --Auntof6 (talk) 17:03, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes I didn't realize I was using fairly complex English language when writing the article despite many simplification I have introduced compared to its (normal) English Wikipedia article. Nevertheless, I've been trying to find a balance of choosing the words that can be understood by beginner English learners, yet it still maintain its exact technical description. It's quite a challenge. Chongkian (talk)

It certainly can be. Writing simple English is not easy. --Auntof6 (talk) 07:55, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Electricity articles

Thanks for your new articles about electricity-related things. Please note the following:

The language in these articles is complex. Please simplify them.
Please use "Related pages" instead of "See also". This is required by our manual of style, as described at Wikipedia:MOS#Related pages.
Instead of putting these articles in the general stub category, please use {{sci-stub}} to put them in the science stub category.

Thanks very much! --Auntof6 (talk) 04:14, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for the input. Yes, I do realize how hard it is to find simple words to describe those electrical articles, Yet that can still maintain its technical detail. I'll try to further simplify it, or if you can help simplifying it, I would appreciate it a lot. Chongkian (talk) 04:17, 3 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New categories

You might not have known, but here on Simple English Wikipedia we want at least three entries in each new category. This is explained at Wikipedia:Categories#Is_there_a_need_for_the_new_category.3F. Some of the new categories you created had only one or two entries. I deleted the one on Taiwanese companies, but I haven't deleted the other ones yet. Do you plan to add more entries to them in the NEAR future? If not, let's recategorize the articles so that the categories can be deleted. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 02:39, 4 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, sorry I didn't know that. I was initially thinking to put those new articles I created into other existing categories. But I just didn't find any suitable one, therefore I created those new categories. Well noted, I'll make more new articles in those new categories really soon. Cheers. Chongkian (talk)
