Category talk:User en-N
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
How can we encourage more users to use the language tags? I'm a newish user and am not well acquainted with all the announcements pages and so on. Shane Smith 20:31, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- I don't understand how they work. I stumbled upon this page after reading another person's profile. I'd like to be pointed to a guide to language tages. Please leave a note on my talk page if you can help. Thanks. --Westendgirl 04:32, 10 July 2005 (UTC)

How does one put a tag on?--1 black hand °T° 17:26, 15 August 2005 (UTC)

- Hi. You can add the "native speaker of English" tag by adding {{Babel-1|en}} to your user page. Complete instructions are available at Wikipedia:Babel, but I will add them to this page as well. -- Rachel 17:42, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] 3
I'm somewhat concerned about Category:User en-3, the text of which is "These users are able to contribute with an advanced level of English". It's the third of four grades for non-native English speakers, but the wording strongly suggests that it's even better' than Category:User en-4 and Category:User en-N. It should be made explicit that, despite being advanced, the user is still not a native English speaker. -Ashley Pomeroy 15:41, 20 August 2005 (UTC)
You should also take a look at Category:User en-5. I'm not certain what "professional level" implies. Is that the skill level of a professional, such as a doctor or lawyer, or is the skill level of someone who specialises in English, such as an editor? David Corbett 23:45, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Like a native speaker?
My native language is not English, but having grown up in Australia, I use English like a native speaker. I use this particular tag, but it's not entirely clear whether it's for people whose native tongue is English, or those with competencies near that of a native speaker. What is the actual role of this tag? Should the wording be changed? 02:46, 6 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] One +cat only
We only need to put Native Users in the EN-N +cat and then add the EN +cat to the bottom of EN-N +cat. Thanks SirIsaacBrock
[edit] Some details about how language tag categories work?
I don't understand what the N does. [[Category:User en|N]] vs. [[Category:User en]] The first tag is in use at the page Category:User_en-N --Tunheim 08:47, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
