Development

Hi! I'm a English-speaking person who loves Mario and Donkey Kong games. Seems like the English Vikidia has been developing more rapidly lately. Gstar (talk) 13:32, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Hi! I’m Koopa, also known as Now, Faster. I am a fan of the song Now, Faster by pinkfong. A lot of things here on vikidia have changed here lately. Koopa (talk) 13:33, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Gstar and Koopa: Hi! Indeed, it's because contributors from Vikidia in French have "migrated" on this version to help. Loulla07 ^Yes ? 13:38, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Merci, as they say in French. :D Gstar (talk) 13:39, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

:D But of nothing ! (I hope that's how we say it in English ^^') Loulla07 ^Yes ? 13:47, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Loulla07: It's "you're welcome". CaesarAugustus (talk) 13:50, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

CaesarAugustus: Oh ^^', thanks! (If my English teacher saw me... ) Loulla07 ^Yes ? 13:53, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Altough I know French very little, only “Bonjour” (Hi), and “Merci” (Thank you) Koopa (talk) 13:40, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Translations

Part of me is wondering if you'll add my translations back into the main French wiki. For example, the Mario article (though a lot of that was my own writing). Gstar (talk) 17:54, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: I'm sorry, but I didn't quite understand your message (my translator must be tired ). I'll just point out that I don't plan on translating any articles for the moment because I'm focusing on infoboxes. Loulla07 ^Yes ? 18:55, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Yeah I just worried the French wiki believes it need to be ahead, haha Gstar (talk) 18:57, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Aaaah, okay ! No problem on that side I think :) Loulla07 ^Yes ? 19:01, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Are you fixing the infoboxes? Koopa (talk) 18:59, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Koopa: Yes :) Loulla07 ^Yes ? 19:01, 20 July 2025 (UTC)

Page

Hi, I'm creating articles, but they are drafts that need to be completed. How do I categorize them? I want to know. ---XCR (talk) 11:34, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

XCR: Hello ! To classify them, you must use categories, which you add with the code [[:Category:<CategoryName>]] and which you find here. Loulla07 ^Yes ? 16:02, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

{{In work}} and {{Under construction}}

Hi, I've seen you've created Category:Article in work by Loulla07, which is the category the template {{In work}} ({{Works}}) automatically puts on a page. However, there is also the template {{Under construction}} ({{UC}}), which puts the category:Articles under development. I suggest we only keep one template and one category. Do you agree on this? And if so, which template do you think we should keep? Regards, CaesarAugustus (talk) 20:03, 24 July 2025 (UTC)

CaesarAugustus: Bonjour ! Je suis d'accord, il ne faudrait en conserver qu'un, et je pense que l'on pourrait garder {{In work}}. Est-ce que ça te va ? Loulla07 ^Yes ? 20:18, 24 July 2025 (UTC) Translation (sorry if it's bad, I did it alone because I don't have translator) : I agree. I think keep {{In work}}. Are you okay ?

As for the name of the template, Wikipedia has wp:Template:Under construction but not "In works", the first one looks like a better translation in my opinion. What if {{In work}} and {{Works}} redirected to {{Under construction}}? I think it could be a good compromise. And your English isn't that bad, mine isn't perfect either. CaesarAugustus (talk) 09:18, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

CaesarAugustus: I think also, we make like that so! Loulla07 ^Yes ? 11:08, 25 July 2025 (UTC) PS : What is the difference between writing "I think also, we make like that so" and "I think so too, we'll do it like this then"? Because I had written it alone the first way before checking if it was correct with a translator and he translated it the second way.

Well, it's a bit technical, I'll answer you in French for this one.

"Also" (« aussi », « également », « de plus ») se place normalement entre le sujet et le verbe (ou alors entre l'auxiliaire et le participe) ; "I think also" ne se dit donc pas. Une formulation correcte aurait pu être "I also think [...]", ce qui veut dire « Je pense aussi que [...] ».

L'adverbe "too" (de même sens), quant à lui, se place soit à la fin de la proposition, soit juste après le sujet, d'où la proposition du correcteur "I think so too" (« Je pense aussi [cela] »), même si tu aurais aussi pu écrire : "I too think so" (le registre aurait simplement été plus soutenu). Le "so" est ici obligatoire, car, contrairement au français, le verbe "to think" a besoin d'un complément d'objet pour fonctionner ; autrement dit, en anglais, on ne dit pas « Je pense aussi » mais littéralement « Je pense aussi ainsi » (ce qui est un peu lourd comme formulation en français). Mais la signification reste grosso modo la même.

Si tu veux approfondir la distinction entre "too" et "also" (mais aussi "as well" qui a la même signification), je t'invite à lire cette rubrique du dictionnaire de l'université de Cambridge qui est en anglais, arf et qui entre plus dans le détail avec des exemples.

Pour ce qui est du reste de la phrase, il y a plusieurs choses :

1. Le verbe "to do" est ici plus adapté que "to make" dans cette locution (quand il n'est suivi de rien, "to make" signifie « faire » dans le sens de « fabriquer », « concevoir »). J'imagine que tu voulais ici traduire littéralement l'expression « faire comme ça », sauf qu'encore une fois, le verbe en anglais ne peut pas fonctionner sans complément dans ce contexte, d'où le "it" que le traducteur automatique a rajouté.
2. De même, dans ce contexte, l'emploi du verbe simple au présent n'est pas adapté au sens voulu : le traducteur a donc ajouté un futur, mais une formulation encore plus correcte eût été "let's do [...]", qui a le sens de « faisons [ça] » (on parle de mode hortatif dans ce cas, puisque le but est d'inciter l'interlocuteur à faire quelque chose sans être un ordre ni un conseil).
3. Pour ce qui est du "like this"/"like that", cela veut sensiblement dire la même chose (« comme ceci »/« comme cela »). En revanche, c'est là que le traducteur automatique pèche un peu : "that way" aurait à mon avis été plus adapté, puisqu'il veut dire spécifiquement « de cette manière » qui est le sens sous-entendu ici. "Like that", comme l'expression « comme ça » en français, veut dire à la fois « de cette manière » et « de ce type ».
4. Et enfin, le dernier mot : "so", dans le sens de « donc », se place au début d'une proposition, jamais à la fin (sinon, il n'a plus le même sens). "Then" (« alors ») est plus approprié et il peut se situer soit au tout début, soit à la toute fin de la proposition. La syntaxe du traducteur est donc correcte.

J'espère que j'ai été compréhensible , n'hésite pas si jamais je n'ai pas été clair sur certains points ou si tu as d'autres questions. Par ailleurs, en ce qui concerne les traducteurs automatiques, je te conseille d'en utiliser un comme DeepL qui est plus performant que ne peuvent l'être d'autres (comme Google Translate par exemple) et surtout d'écrire le contexte de la phrase que tu veux traduire, pour éviter que certains mots ou expressions soient mal traduits car mal compris par l'outil. I'll not write the whole translation here, it is basically an explanation of certain aspects of English grammar. CaesarAugustus (talk) 14:48, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

CaesarAugustus: Merci beaucoup pour ces explications très claires qui ont dû te prendre du temps ! Et je vais maintenant utiliser DeepL comme traducteur. :) Loulla07 ^Yes ? 16:04, 25 July 2025 (UTC) Translation : Thank you very much for these very clear explanations, which must have taken up a lot of your time! And now I'm going to use DeepL as my translator.

Pas de souci ! Tant mieux si j'ai pu aider. Translation: You're welcome! Glad I could help. CaesarAugustus (talk) 16:32, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Repair

Please, Template:Infobox person need to review!----Gracias (talk) 17:44, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Gracias: I'll take care of it, thanks for the tip ! Loulla07 ^Yes ? 17:50, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Gracias:  Done. Loulla07 ^Yes ? 18:15, 25 July 2025 (UTC)

Infobox country

Thank you for fixing that. Hope you don't mind I made some changes to try and ensure the template works like on the French wiki. Gstar (talk) 16:03, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: Hello! No, on the contrary, thank you for your changes! Loulla07 ^Yes ? 16:07, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

You're welcome! I just saw you were trying to ensure a consistent design for the infoboxes and didn't want to mess anything up. :) Gstar (talk) 16:28, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Nu metal

Oh sweet you like Linkin Park? I really love the nu metal genre. Gstar (talk) 17:57, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: Yes, it's one of my favorite bands! Loulla07 ^Yes ? 18:02, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Don't Stay and Points of Authority are my fav songs of theirs. Gstar (talk) 18:58, 26 July 2025 (UTC)

Me, these are Lost in the echo, Numb, In the end, Over each Other, Crawling and What I've Done :D Loulla07 ^Yes ? 11:30, 27 July 2025 (UTC)

This one is basically a cross between In the End by Linkin Park with Downfall by Trustcompany. Gstar (talk) 22:38, 19 November 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: (Sorry for the delay in replying...) Oh, that's nice! (Even if it's not as good as In the End ^^.) I didn't know the group Trust Company (hey, a future article to create? xD). Loulla07 ^Yes ? 17:19, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

Yes, I'd love to make such an article at some point. Hold on, do you like video games? They're one of my greatest hobbies. Gstar (talk) 18:00, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: Yep, even though I don't play them very regularly. But at one point I really liked (mainly because they're the only games I own ) Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order (I'm a Marvel fan) and Mario video games. I'm more into reading (sci-fi, action, fantasy, adventure, thriller) ^^. Loulla07 ^Yes ? 18:36, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

Thats why I've been trying to add better Mario representation. Also, I'm really glad user named Rayquaza registered here because I'm also a Pokemon fan. Gstar (talk) 18:40, 27 November 2025 (UTC)

Changes

Hi, I worked very hard last afternoon to translate some of the French Vikidia stuff to here to try and enrich the experience here for others. I hope you and the community enjoy it! Gstar (talk) 16:48, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

Gstar: Hello! I was just going to send you a little message about this: I think the work you did is great, so thank you very much! I really like the new main page . Loulla07 ^Yes ? 17:16, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

You're welcome! The "new old" main page, I call it, haha. Still need to fill in some of the Vikidia front page stuff, although I also exhausted myself in the process. Gstar (talk) 18:15, 31 July 2025 (UTC)

godmothers and godfathers

Hi Loulla ! I would like to know if there are godmothers and godfathers in Vikidia in English too ? Thanks you and good night ! Little swallow (talk) 21:26, 12 March 2026 (UTC)

Little swallow: Hi! Oh dear, sorry for the huge delay, I hadn't seen your message! So, in the meantime ^^', I think you must have realized that no, there aren't any godmothers and godfathers on Vikidia in English... Loulla07 ^Yes ? 15:12, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Non problem, this is not a bid deal ! 😅 Thanks to answer ! (If you are interested, we are created a VikiCollab in the English wiki...) Little swallow (talk) 16:39, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Little swallow: Oh, that's a great idea! I've signed up :) Loulla07 ^Yes ? 21:55, 12 April 2026 (UTC)

Articles under construction

Hi! I've just noticed you had two articles under construction since January. LinedBot doesn't delete the template here after two months with no edits, but it's still better not to have articles in works for seven months. Have a nice day, CaesarAugustus (talk) 10:17, 21 July 2026 (UTC)
