An attempt at an explanation

Hey Alexandra, I tried writing an explanation of why WP:BEFOREs for local topics which are more likely to be described in other lanugages than English often fail, using Swedish AfD discussions as an example. I have a rough draft. Before I start editing it for clarity and style, is there anything which doesn't make sense, or a crucial piece I'm missing, if you feel taking a look is a good use of your time? User:Julle/Swedish AfD discussions. This is a personal account, not an attempt at a neutral description, but I still figured I should check in with a couple of editors who often end up in these discussions, to at least give them a chance to protest.

Great initiative! I left my notes on the talk page. AlexandraAVX (talk) 12:25, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! /Julle (talk) 14:52, 31 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
