Finnish Americans
Hello, welcome and thanks for your edits. An issue has been that you have been adding external links to article text, rather than links to other articles, please read WP:EL for information on when and where these types of links are accepted. I left the one you added to the "external links" section, as that would be the place such links can be added. Are you affiliated with Finlandia Foundation or Concordia Language Villages in any way? If so, that must be disclosed per WP:COI, however if you are only using these organizations as references then that's no problem. Thank you and welcome once again. TylerBurden (talk) 10:54, 11 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks, @TylerBurden for your feedback. These are my first edits, so I am really appreciative of your guidance. I will take a look at the link situation and make corrections to that per WP:EL. I reviewed the WP:COI info you shared and am pretty sure I am in the clear for these edits. I used to be affiliated with CLV, but that was over six years ago. I have never worked for Finlandia Foundation National. Again, thanks for the guidance and let me know if you think something else needs to be changed or if you think I need to do something further with COI. &#32;Helvishmelvi (talk) 14:54, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem, Wikipedia's quite complicated so it's good to become aware of these sorts of things as fast as possible. Since you are not currently affiliated with them, that shouldn't be a problem from the standpoint of COI. Keep up the good work! TylerBurden (talk) 11:31, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I appreciate it! &#32;Helvishmelvi (talk) 14:16, 12 July 2023 (UTC)

Unicode chart translation request
Hello. I maintain multilingual Wikimedia charts showing roadmaps to the various planes of the Unicode Standard. I'm hoping you will provide Finnish translations for me. (I noticed your user name on the Translators available list.) The specifics are at User:Drmccreedy/roadmap_multilingual. Currently the Finnish Unicode article uses the English charts. Thank you for any help you can offer. DRMcCreedy (talk) 02:42, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
