Why did you leave our group, comrade? We couldn't understand why. — Supreme Comrade Felipe Forte (talk) 21:48, 2 December 2020 (UTC)
Don't know where the reply option is :P
I left the Telegram group because I don't trust that app. It is pretty infamous for a lack of security, because it doesn't use end-to-end encryption like the VAST majority of messaging apps do, and the MTProto encryption scheme it uses is known for being very buggy and not well-developed. None of this has ANYTHING to do with you guys remotely, you're all great! I just can't put my trust into Telegram, that's all.
- We understand. We don't use Telegram because of its security features, we use it because of its other features, such as polling, channels, syncing between computers and smartphones, etc.. I personally advise you not to develop this type of insecurity concerning privacy because I was once very paranoid about this, until I realized there is no privacy on the internet, period. The internet was never designed with privacy in mind.
Also, if you work by yourself, you have every reason to be afraid of privacy issues, since you are alone, and you become an easier target. By being together, the risks related to privacy tend to dilute itself.

References
Hi comrade, I noticed you're leaving some articles without references, like the People's Republic of China and the LGBT+ ones. So, to add them properly:
- You need to check if there's a References section in the article.
- If there isn't you go to the end of it, add a "References" Heading (ctrl+2), then you go to the insert tab and add choose "References List" to add below that References heading section created.
- If the article already has a References section, skip the second step, and go to the part of the article where you think the reference to what you wrote needs to be added
- Go to the "Cite" tab, then choose "Basic" (ctrl+shift+k), write the reference and click "insert".
- Done! (You don't need to manually write the references in the "References" section, they will be automatically added as you go the part of the text that needs reference and add it through the "Cite" tab).
I hope that's helpful comrade. P.S.: We really want you to join our telegram group, we could communicate better and work together, but you do you of course, we won't force you <3 --— Comrade Andassol (talk) 13:54, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
