:::I'm just trying to help out. I am providing enough information to help Scottish school children who are being instructed in Gàidhlig. Until I retired I used to work for a school district here in Florida where pupils were instructed not to use Wikipedia under any circumstances when writing a paper or doing homework. The reason given was anyone can go in and change information. I was hoping that wasn't the case with the Scottish school system, since there is no Scottish encyclopedia, and resources for instruction in Gàidhlig are extremely limited. I have created such stubs for all 50 states for the Welch, Cornish, and Breton communites and never received any opposition from anyone. The individual who wrote me yesterday told me to limit things to the UK and to expand content, yet of the three articles he has written, two are about Basque culture and the third is little more than a stub. Besides, as shown on my profile page I am at a level one in Gàidhlig, so I can't write extensive articles. I don't understand why stubs are frowned upon, when a few years ago I saw Wikipedia give recognition to a woman who had created 2000 stubs, not articles. After all, the name of this organization is Wikipedia, not Essaypedia. I am this far with creating the stubs for all 50 states it would make sense to allow me to finish them. I'm not looking for recognition, I'm just trying to help.
::::As for the following message I received today: "Could you make sure you understand the meaning of lùireach, gearradh-arm, seula, mapa and dealbh?" I understand their meanings, the problem is the person who created the templet didn't realize many, if not most, cities and towns in the US don't have flags or seals. The only thing that is necessary is displaying a map to show its location and a picture to show what the place looks like. If someone could go in and change the labeling, or show me how to do it, I would be more than happy to make the change myself. Better yet, if someone could create a new templet that only includes a map and a picture, then I will convert all templets over to the new one.[[Cleachdaiche:Jhendin|Jhendin]] ([[Deasbaireachd a' chleachdaiche:Jhendin|an deasbaireachd]]) 20:39, 11 dhen Iuchar 2017 (UTC)
