Rationale
[edit]In my opinion, the Xhosa Wikipedia is largely full of grammatical errors and poorly translated pages. I'm on the Enterosque account, but I'm also Enterosquet, or the one who made more than 600 of these pages. And at the time I did it because I wanted to take over Wikipedia, but in doing so, I decided to eliminate the abuse filter and from that moment I started having problems logging into my account, even though the account I was using was ammatte and not Enterosquet. Then I also deleted the ones from the Cree Wikipedia with ammatta. In any case, I realized that many pages on this Wikipedia aren't good enough, and I wanted to ask everyone if it was okay or not, also because there is DCNFY who was in support me (but maybe he didn't agree with how I made the pages) and I wanted to open this discussion to see if it was the case to close this Wikipedia. Let's not jump to conclusions. Let's wait for everyone to have the opportunity to give their opinion. I used the translator (again) to write this request so I could have made some mistakes

This user pasted a message that they are proposing a project closure on the actual main page of the Isixhosa Wikipedia and not on the Talkpage or village pump. That action is vandalism and this proposal also serves as evidence of their vandalism in the project. I propose that this user be banned from editing any South African Wikipedia language Wikis.
The community should decide on quality issues and come up with solutions in an appropriate forum, not by pasting a link on the main Wikipedia page.
