Since you appear utterly confused about why you were blocked, here's why:

  • You removed entries for certain languages for no apparent reason. This is apparently a common pattern to you, since you were blocked as a sockpuppet on id.wp of a user account that has made edits like this on en.wp.
  • You are not even trying to source your etymologies. Sources to plain language dictionaries are not etymological references; they are sources that a word exists in language X, not that a word in language Y derives from language X.
  • Sourcing your edits to another wiki project, instead of adding the sources proper, that you yourself edited demonstrates intellectual dishonesty that we absolutely do not want, especially from anyone who mainly works on etymologies.

That your first thought was to think I was of some other Indonesian group I very much feel further demonstrates that you are not here to improve the content of the project, but to promote your group over others. That kind of tendentious editing is not going to fly. — SURJECTION / T / C / L / 17:41, 12 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

In Stevens' Indonesian-English Dictionary, and Wilkinson's Malay-English Dictionary. The etymology of "bebek" is from Javanese. Type the word "bebek" in the link below.

"Jajan" is not a loan from Sundanese, but a loan from Javanese.

"Butuh" in Indonesian is a direct loan from Javanese, not via Sundanese.

There is no term borrowing vocabulary from Malay in Indonesian, because Indonesian is Malay itself. Indonesian is rooted in Malay. So, the word "gawat" should be written directly from Javanese, not from Malay, because Indonesian is Malay itself. How can it be said that Indonesian borrows vocabulary from Malay, while Indonesian is Malay itself. The term borrowing vocabulary in Indonesian only applies to languages ​​​​other than Malay.Jawapedia (talk) 18:52, 12 February 2025 (UTC)Reply

Open your eyes wide. Look at the reference source. English Wiktionary also has no reference source. The etymology in Wictionary is filled in haphazardly.
