You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply  [ create a named account] . It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
 * Create new pages and rename pages

 * Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (71.230.16.111) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit.

Wiktionary as a source
Hello, I undid your edit on Mise en abyme. Firstly there was already a translation in the same paragraph, but also, Wiktionary is not a valid source for Wikipedia. One of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, so Wiktionary, being user-generated content, is not suitable. For related information, see. Thanks. — W.andrea (talk) 05:14, 8 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Sorry. Wiktionary can't actually be "user generated content", (a made-up defination wouldn't be of much use) but I didn't realize that it was unsourced. More explanation of the translation would be useful. 71.230.16.111 (talk) 06:20, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Wiktionary is user-generated content. Nothing is stopping someone from adding a made-up definition — or translation in this case — though we hope it would get reverted quickly. It's the same reason we can't cite Wikipedia on Wikipedia (as I linked before).
 * By the way, I just remembered some caveats: faithful translations don't really require citation, so there was no real need for the ref in the first place. You can see the other translation on the page is also uncited. However, there's also a rule on copying within Wikipedia and other Wikimedia projects, but I don't believe a short translation is "sufficiently creative to be copyrightable under US law", so again attribution is not needed, though it'd be good to include it anyway; that would just be a link to the source in the edit summary instead of in the article.

 * Regarding, it is true, a simple translation doesn't require explanation. But "Un idiotisme, ou une expression idiomatique, est une construction ou une locution particulière à une langue, qui porte un sens par son tout et non par chacun des mots qui la composent. Il peut s'agir de constructions grammaticales ou, le plus souvent, d'expressions imagées ou métaphoriques." does. 71.230.16.111 (talk) 09:58, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Sorry, explanation? I'm talking about citation, that is, giving a source for the information, not explaining it. Either way, the translation in the article is literal, so there's nothing to explain, and the article explains the use of the term in English, which from what I understand is synonymous with the French.
 * BTW, not to be rude, but why did you quote an entire paragraph instead of just saying "an idiom"? I had a hard time reading what you wrote at first because it breaks up your sentence.
 * — W.andrea (talk) 20:49, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Because I didn't know that simply "an idiom" was actually a correct translation to that meaning in French. Which is why I would prefer more explanation in the article about the translation mentioned.71.230.16.111 (talk) 01:33, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by "explanation"? I've already talked about why I feel it's not necessary. — W.andrea (talk) 21:35, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
