WikiProject Eurovision: Important Announcement
editWikiProject Eurovision Important Announcement
Dear Project Member Following a project community discussion, which was raised over the use of English translation columns on annual contest articles, and advice from the lead coordinator of The Guild of Copy Editors, who are extremely knowledgeable in regards to all editing practises and manual of style policies. A consensus decision has been reached to fully remove ALL English translations, as such content falls under the prohibition on original research, even if it seems helpful to the reader. This is because we have now to assume that every reader has access to automated translation tools that can always give them a sense of the meaning of the title in their native language; it is not Wikipedia's job to provide those tools for the reader. Which therefore means we are no longer to include an English translation column, nor are we to provide translation by any other means on contest articles. Such information is currently in the process of being removed, and a new table formatting and layout style is being rolled out across all articles. Please view the new guidance on table layout at Wikipedia:WikiProject Eurovision/Format and Guides#Article layout. An example of the new table layout style can also be access via the collapsed section within this message. Thank you. |

With this I reverted an edit you had made to O2 Arena (Prague) because it was unsourced. I left the edit summary "removing unsourced content". You reverted my edit here, and added back the unsourced content without an edit summary. You left a message on my talk page where you wrote "removing my addition because it was 'unsourced' is a laugh considering that the entire section is unsourced. Why not remove everything all together?" Please take a moment to read WP:BURDEN, which states "All content must be verifiable. The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material, and is satisfied by providing a citation to a reliable source that directly supports the contribution". I have reverted your edit. Thank you for your understanding. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:39, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
