User talk:24.108.18.81

You've been making quite a few basic mistakes: never create a new entry or a new language section without a headword template (see WT:EL), bor is only used once in an etymology, for the final borrowing into the language of the entry- everything further back in the chain of derivation uses der; the first language code in an etymology template is the language of the entry; never use Google Translate as a source- it's basically a combination of machine-learning algorithms; we also don't use wikis like Wikipedias and other Wiktionaries as sources, and, finally, your last edit, to katte, obliterated the entries for 7 different languages that were on the page. And that's just what I found in about 10 minutes of going through your edits.I know you mean well, but you're leaving a lot of damage for others to clean up.

Unreliable
Hello. Please don't copy stuff from unreliable websites like palaeolexicon.com and wikipedia.org. Vahag (talk) 09:23, 1 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Again, don't mindlessly copy from other websites and do not edit in languages with which you are not familiar. Vahag (talk) 16:25, 15 May 2024 (UTC)

Etymologies
Hi - changes like this are not helpful: "mong" is not a word in any of the languages involved (it's in the wrong script, and it's not clear what language it's supposed to be anyway), and it shouldn't be an external link. I also see no evidence that we can trace it back to Middle Chinese or Mandarin, when explains the word much more directly, which comes from Middle Mongol. Theknightwho (talk) 23:58, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
