Hi Mandatorymist77. I see that you reversed edits I did on one of your articles, without making the necessary corrections. The edits I have done are mainly for spelling and very basic grammar. I don't think they can be considered optional at all.

I do delete text when I think it is incomprehensible, or if it is going to take too much time on my part to correct. For example, in the Oasis article, I have deleted ̊a t e i m ar a bunaigh a banna a o n e a d" (I put spaces in the misspelt words so that Google won't pick them up). I have no idea what this means.

I spent a few minutes correcting (more or less) the rest of the Oasis text this time, but I can't do this too often. Oasis is a higher profile article than most bands and it has categories, ... so much more likely to be read than artiles without.

You can always reinstate text deletions of course. Indeed I hope you will, but please make a good effort at correcting the text in that case. It doesn't have to be quite perfect... I can put finishing touches. But I am sure that you are able to do a good job if you have the time and patience.

My own understanding of Irish grammar is far from perfect any my method is to try to find formulae that seem to be correct and model text on them, as I explain on my profile page. Using Google advanced search, we are able to find some similar text. I search different combinations of words and spelling iteratively, until I found what seems to be the most used. ... you could do this too, if you spend more time on it

Other tools include using the litreoir that Kevin Scannell has developed, and even the gramadóir. Given the availability of such tools, there is little excuse for e.g. large numbers of spelling mistakes.

More generally, the Vicipéid has a real problem with a fair number of articles which could be classified as ̊pidgin". In this cae, the choice open to us is either to put a "glanadh" banner at the top or deletion. The big problem with "glanadh" is that the errors remain visible in Google searches, creating a bad reputation for the Vicipéid.

It would be important to nip careless writing in the bud. It is awful to impose "glanadh" on the articles of some editors a long time afterwards, as I had to do recently. And in many cases, the articles in the "glanadh" category are never going to be corrected... and could well end up being written over by some other editor (often easier to write anew than to correct). So it would be a courtesy to let an editor like you know quickly when there are problems.

Please read my profile page https://ga.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9As%C3%A1ideoir:TGcoa and please send me personal messages if I can help with formulations etc. Good luck ǃ ̴̴̴̴

Apologies for reverting the edits, although I didnt contribute much to the Oasis page, which is why I reverted it. Anyways, my Irish isnt fantastic either. My spoken Irish is alright (2 3 week stints in Rath Cairn and a year in cumamn na bhfiann was responsible for that) my written Irish isnt great. I wanted to try and improve my irish while doing something i found relatively productive and on topics I enjoy, which is why I started editing the Irish wikipedia (I didnt think my (relatively) obscure articles would be viewed too much, which meant i didnt need them to be flawless as i tried to improve my Irish). Anyways, I have learned quite a bit from editing onnthe site and from using Focloirmie (which, in hindsite may not be the best way to learn grammer) but my written Irish is far from perfect. Many of my articles are also works in progress (i.e the Undertale translations and Oasis albums) that I would work on over time as I learned. I apologise that my grammer is considerably các, but i am trying to work on it over time.

Its nice to know that im not the only person on this website and that there are people willing to help with mistakes. I will try and improve these arcticles in the future.

Go raibh mile maith agat.
