About a red link suppression
Hello John About this change: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Open_border&oldid=prev&diff=891271233 Good morning (or evening), John. I am French, I have written some articles in Wikipedia and I have contributed to many others and especially I still have a long list of articles that I would like to write in the French Wikipedia on differents topics (science, law, culture, ethnology, geography ...) that are not yet developed enough (in my opinion) in the french version of wikipedia. I read simple or scientific English quite easily, but it's harder for me to write correctly in English with the precision I want. I thought this article Cross-border worker) was really missing from your English encyclopedia (and I still think so). There is literature on the subject. I think a red link is useful when the subject is of encyclopedic interest; it's an incentive to improve Wikipedia. Is'nt it? I see that nobody has spontaneously yet created the article. At the time when I proposed this red link in the English-language wikipedia, I had already drafted it in French: https://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=transfrontalierWorkshop&action=history. If an anglophone wikipedian can or wants to translate it, it is available. I would write it more badly than you or another english speaker wikipedian, and it is a risk that it will be deleted (and therefore waste of time for me, which I feel more useful French side or there is much less article in French than English). Good continuation and thank you for your work to improve wikipedia. --Lamiot (talk) 02:45, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
 * , thank you for doing me the honour of inviting my opinion. Based on your writing above, may I assure you that you have no reason to fear. I have come across many articles, written by editors with English mother tongue, that are far less coherently structured or grammatically written. And yes, the article you propose will be very useful. If you wish, I will be very happy to preview it in your Sandbox before it goes live. Thank you too for your work on the project. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 09:36, 3 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello to you too.I never thought that you would be scared of not being able to write in proper English or whatever your case may be. It's actually a good thing because some people who needs information and those who like to gather information will find it easier to catch up with you and it'll be easy to do their work.Thank You Mamello Molunga (talk) 20:30, 24 July 2019 (UTC)
